Best Upscale Seafood in town

by jipseegirl at Citysearch

I only get the chance to go to the Sole on special occasions - between my paychecks and this economy, it is a tad pricey = ) But well worth it!

The Sole has some of the best seafood dishes around. I crave their sushi - it's hard to find in the area. Never had a poor dining experience - there's a reason the parking lot is jam packed night after night.

Best part is - you can make reservations whenever!

The Sole is one of three unbelievable restaurants by the same owner in Worcester. Highly recommended!

  • Pros: Great food, great atmosphere, wonderful dining experience. Stellar sushi!
  • Cons: Parking lot can get cramped , tad high on the prices

One of my favorite restaurants ever!

by LittleItaly113 at Citysearch

I just LOVE this place! I can't believe some of the mixed reviews because I've been here a bunch of times and I know tons of people who frequent this place. My favorite thing to do when I go here is order a bunch of things off of the appetizer menu and share. The sushi is SOOOO amazing- very fresh and a few really unique rolls that are super tasty. Perfect for a date night or even a fun night out w/ friends! Such great seafood.

HUGE disappointment

by LisaS64 at Citysearch

What used to my favorite restaurant all-around, has become quite a huge disappointment. My last visit (02.01.08) was a fairly large party for a birthday celebration. First, we were told that the restaurant will not accept reservations on a Friday evening for a party of 11 unless we could come in for 5:30 P.M. or after 8:30 P.M. We opted for the early time. Next, only half of our table was asked if they wanted appetizers. Upon receiving our meals, several were returned because the fish had been overcooked and was extremely dry. Fixing this matter consisted of placing completely new orders and the chef (or manager) bringing out the new dishes.

Prior to this visit, my husband and I went out about a month or two earlier for a quiet dinner. My husband's fish order was undercooked almost to the point of being raw. My order of crab cakes were also undercooked.

When you are paying for good food, you expect the same in return. I will not rush back to the Sole for dinner any time soon.

Horrible Food

by jessilou123 at Citysearch

We went to the sole for a night out my husband and I and regret it. It was so pack and noisy you couldn't hear each other when speaking. And when we got our food it was disgusting. The food was bland and didn't have much flavor and this was a staff reccommended dish. Also the shrimp was so over cooked it took forever to chew and swallow it. It had a tough rubber like texture. The salad was good though and the waitstaff was really nice. We should have left after the salad.

  • Pros: Waitstaff was nice
  • Cons: Food was bad

Great Sushi, High Class Environment, Superb Ambience, Fast Service

by chefzing at Citysearch

Welcome to flavor! This restaurant has amazing food and amazing prices. If you like Steamed Clams, look no further. For a mere $13 dollars, you get a very large portion, as it is listed as an appetizer. They have a Sushi Chef which whips up your favorite Raw fish. You will usually get 2 waitors or waitresses. Both of which will make your stay very pleasant. The food is always fast to come and fast to go from your plate! I highly recommend the Sole if your in the mood for an amazing seafood dish or just some sushi!

  • Pros: Amazing Sushi, Fresh Seafood, Cheap Steamers
  • Cons: Certain Drinks are $$ but to be expected at a restaurant of this calibur
