The Talk Restaurant

Last night for diner we went to The Talk Restaurant in Watertown, Ma (http://www.thetalkrestaurant.com). We have been there once before and we were under impressed with the gluten free pasta, and the food was drenched in sauce with a lot of oil too. My mom had tried the gluten free pasta, I had not. She said that it was rather mealy and she compared it to a regular box pasta that you can buy in the market and not cooked properly. 

Last night knowing this, we ordered a little differently. We stayed away from the pasta and got dinner plates instead. I had salmon with a honey glaze, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. Everything was cooked perfectly, and was very tasteful! Most definitely a good choice.












Jude got the swordfish special which had a lemon garlic butter glaze served with mashed potatoes and asparagus. She also enjoyed her piece of fish, and the meal was cooked properly.




Overall, this is a pretty good restaurant. The service is spectacular! We had a 
very nice waitress who was extremely attentive to our needs. The down side to this restaurant in our opinion is They say they have a lot of gluten free options when you ask, or call but the only "special" item that they have for gluten free people is the pasta. They do not offer a gluten free menu, who ever is serving you will tell you if the dinner is gluten free. In addition to not having an actual gluten free menu to display for people to review, they do not serve any gluten free bread at the begining of the meal. However, they still put the bread basket on the table with regular bread for the others you are with, It did not appear to me from the two times that we have been there that they are very concerned about cross contamination, but I could and hope that I am wrong.
