Waterford's Family - Dedham

I hadn't been here in several years came here a few times while kayaking the Charles. My husband and I were looking for some impromptu lunch, aware that it being Mothers Day that might be a little challenging. I'm really glad we were in the area and came to Waterford's! They were wrapping up the buffet but were really cool about letting us have a look at that and if we wanted something else they would ask the kitchen if we could order off the menu. I don't eat meat so the buffet was slim pickins, but would have made it work if they couldn't accommodate us. But they could! Yay. We sat at the bar and had a couple beers. I got the black bean burger which was wicked good the bun was toasted which gave it an extra nice crunch. The fries are steak fries! Can't remember the last time I saw steak fries. These were great crisp on the outside and creamy on the inside. My husband got pork chops with veg and mashed potatoes along with a side salad. He really enjoyed it. I've always loved the atmosphere here, with its open feel, copious natural light, and dark wood furniture. And the service is great, very warm and friendly. Give it a try! Thanks, Waterford's.

DONT EVER GO HERE: If i could give zero stars i would. This restaurant is a nightmare. I spoke to 2 or 3 different managers in regards to a refund for my HORRIBLE meal and HORRIBLE service and they keep giving me the run around saying to call this number, call that number, someone will reach out to you. Nobody has called me even after i was told i would receive a full refund for my awful experience. AND I WILL NOT DELETE MY REVIEW UNTIL I AM ISSUED MY REFUND THAT I WAS PROMISED

Paid market price for fish and chips got some freezer fish. More of a regulars place only care about that customer not new

We decided to try Waterford's to celebrate our anniversary. I hadn't been there since it first opened after the Old Irish Ale House closed. We were pleasantly surprised! The food and service are excellent. I ordered the grilled shrimp with yummy rice. My husband had the shepherd's pie. Both were delicious. They have a sangria that is so good. The atmosphere is warm and cozy. If you can get a table by the river, even better. Highly recommended!

Excellent service and perfect Baked Haddock dinner. Very responsive bar staff! They used to have Harp on tap but Sam Adams Lager was a top notch alternative. Highly recommend stopping in to enjoy the ambiance and views of the Charles River from the main bar!!! 5 Stars
