“I recently dined at the Lithuanian Kitchen, located within the South Boston Lithuanian Citizens’ Association, and it was a delightful experience. As someone of Lithuanian descent, the traditional dishes served here truly felt like comfort food, reminiscent of family gatherings. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the community. While the kitchen operates with limited hours, typically open on select Sundays, it’s well worth planning a visit. The authenticity and quality of the food make it a must-visit spot for anyone seeking a taste of Lithuanian cuisine in Boston.”

“TCC is a hidden gem that ought to be replicated throughout. I rarely write reviews but TCC deserves my time. Our original daycare called us 4 weeks prior to our start date telling us that they had to delay our start by a month. At that point, my wife and I had just about used up all of our leave.

In the midst of exhaustively panic-dialing every child care center between Metrowest and Boston, I reached TCC and was greeted by a dedicated admin and one of the directors of the center who, after pleading my case for what felt like the millionth time, was able slot our first born in with no interruption our family’s plan to return to work.

But leaving your child with teachers who initially feel like strangers, is scary. We were glad in no time our child was making friends, exploring new things and developing so well! It’s apparent the teachers care for the children with their entire heart and soul. They know when your child’s having good days or bad days and whether they’re off and probably even why.

Fast forward two years, our first born became a big sister 10 weeks early. Despite all the associated craziness going on at home at the time, TCC was a rock for her and the constant she was able to count on. The teachers were so understanding and made a chaotic time much easier.

When our second child was ready to start school, at this point developmentally earlier, we had no reservations. We knew she was going to be a super star like her big sister.

It’s with my rare recommendation that I say your children can be super stars too. It’s from our observations that the individual classrooms are usually staffed better than the state-mandated ratios. This is important because we think this helps the teachers give your children the attention they deserve and it also keeps them from getting burned out.

Another thing is to take your child’s evaluations to heart. We found that the teacher’s observations were usually in line with what we observed at home. Collaborate, coordinate, and try to reinforce what they are doing at school and you will see quickly see changes in your child. We once got a term-paper of various things we can try for our child’s development after we were promised just a “few notes” during an assessment!

We cannot overemphasis how much it shows that entire center cares and loves the children and wants them to reach their fullest potential.”

“Cute bookstore. Stopped in while on a work trip to the area. The book store itself is rather small but they have hundreds of books cataloged in the back so all you have to do is have them look it up for you. They also have local seasoning, crafts, and more displayed around the shop for purchase. I was able to get the book I was looking for along with some Zatar seasoning. It was a win win for me. Would definitely come back to find a new book or just to see what they have that's new. Part of the proceeds also go to a worthy cause of youth education and literacy so that makes it even better. Will definitely return!”

“Although I no longer have young children, the after-school program, specifically Seamus Bruno, has caught my attention. The manner in which he interacts with the children is so kind, warm, caring and engaging. It is clear he loves his job, and he wants the kids in his program to be happy and feeling they belong there. He is always upbeat and smiling, patient and professional. Very impressive.”

“I recently spenta weekan a half at Sherrill House and am writing this not e to express my gratitude for the terrific support that the nursing anf pt staff provided. There as an atmosphere of support and respect for patients that I'm sure has been part of your culture. I can say that you've earned your reputation as a top notch care povider.

As an example I was in my room with a nurse who noticed the patient next to me was in trouble. The nurse instantly called for help - it arrived in seconds and everyone worked together to treat the patient and get him to an ER It was impressive and yet comforting to see that level of professionalism and support.
Getting my meds ontime is important to me and the staff did a timely job of getting them to me in every case, again, much appeciated.

Thank you and all the best to your team.

PS, I'm glad to support a not-for-profit hospital, where patient care rules over profits,”
