Lock 50 - Worcester

I went to this restaurant for lunch on a Sunday. I ordered the Croque Madame, which was delicious! My husband really enjoyed the hot pastrami sandwich - he can't stop talking about it! The service was excellent and the atmosphere had a nice mix of simplicity and elegance. Definitely recommend trying it out!

We tried the 7-course chef's tasting menu and it was amazing. Although it's more of a special occasion meal, it's worth the price. The portions were generous and allowed us to truly savor each dish. There was a good variety of food on offer. If you enjoy being adventurous and surprised, you must not miss this experience. If surprises aren't your thing, the a la carte menu also looked great. The chef clearly knows their stuff.

Overall, the experience at this restaurant was mediocre. The chicken and grits were delicious, as well as the croque madame. The service was slow, but our waitress was friendly. Unfortunately, the steak and egg dish was missing the egg when it arrived, and by the time it did come out, the other parts of the dish were cold.

We enjoyed the tasting menu with wine very much. The food and service were both excellent. We would have appreciated a written menu to review while eating each course. The silverware might have been refreshed as the meal progressed, but it was not. Further, there were times we might have had an easier time if a steak or serated edged knife had been provided.

We rented the beautiful back dining room at Lock50 for our wedding this past weekend. From start to finish they made the process of planning an absolute breeze. Everyone was so responsive, friendly, and accommodating. And the food! The food was just spectacular. If you’re looking for a local restaurant to host a private event, even one as special as a wedding, Lock50 should be at the top of your list!
