Sycamore

Arguably the best cocktail/mixology spot in Newton. Great bar bites and an even better food menu. Terrific all around and just about impeccable in every way. Go check it out if you haven't.

Helmed by David Punch of Ten Tables, Sycamore has been turning heads in Newton since opening a year ago thanks to its refined American cuisine and solid beverage program. [Eater 38 Member]

Chef-owner David Punch , joined by Lydia Reichert , most recently a sous chef at Craigie on Main , make wonderfully creative use of fresh ingredients in deceptively simple preparations.

This is one of the best meals I've ever had.. Everything was wonderful. My personal favorite was the mackerel escabeche. If you can get out to Newton, eat here. Seriously, if you don't you'll be upset

Make your reservtion well in advance. Get the trout starter, ANY of the mains, ad definitely the beignets w/ milk jam for dessert . You won't be disappointed.

they do asian inspired snacks on mondays!! the ramen consists of pork-miso broth, kimchee-style mustard greens , miso-marinated 5 minute egg and crispy pork confit

Incredible drinks and food! Pork sausage ragu was out of this world.

There may or may not be a secret tasting menu . The heirloom carrots and the duck breast (over farro risotto w/duck confit ) were particularly tasty.

(Best of Boston 2013-NEWTON) Improper Bostonian says, "Chefs David Punch (formerly Ten Tables) and Lydia Reichert (formerly of Craigie on Main ) know their way around a bistro ."

Chorizo croquettes , hangar steak , an kale were all great. And thanks to the host for compensating for the delayed reservation

The cocktails here are excellent — try the Dad Bod for something strong and unique

The Smoked Bluefish Pâté "snack " is a fantastic appetizer !

DELICIOUS Pig Board-- you must try. Jason is stellar waiter & a-must have are drinks w/the maraschino cherries !!!

The pork platter was unreal!

Everything is delicious! They do ramen on Mondays starting at 9 and it's awesome!

Monday-only “Big Trouble in Little Sycamore” nights, which goes from 9 until 11 p.m

The beets and the pigs head were amazing. Yes, I said pigs head. Not what you think.

Had the suckling pig confit . Amazing! Great service and wonderful food.

Try the new summer farm board - tasty, fresh, diverse offerings!

Everything but especially the Beignets

Chocolate terrine for dessert . So many subtle flavors

Order the duck board for two

Everything is good here!

They serve ramen on Mondays after 9PM

Baba ganoush with grilled flatbread .

agnolotti is to die for!
