On Saturday 13 March 2010, the GoffstownToday.com Secret Gourmet Team visited Kiki's in New Boston to see just how pleased they could be with the Service, Quality of food, pricing, atmosphere and more. The GGTeam was pleasantly surprised overall and have this to say:
Service: Our waitress, Iris, was very accommodating and knowledgeable. Top notch from start to finish.
Atmosphere/Decor: Just the right mixture of old country inn and tasteful updates. Three levels offer a coziness of a place of this size. Old photographs of the area and tasteful displays of antiques introduces a very comfortable dining experience.
Selection: Sophisticated without being overpowering. Clam chowder -- its all about the clams and the base, potatoes and seasoning did not overpower. We tried and liked the huge fresh scallops, the Reuben sandwich, and a unique cod tempura. By far, the best was a cottage pie -- a baked ground lamb, whipped potato, and corn casserole. The onion soup was delightful. We also ordered a hamburger which was tasty, yet when compared to the balance of all else in front of us, we felt a flavor adjustment was in need for the hamburger. It was missing something, just not sure what. The desert tray easily overcame resistance and the selections were wonderful.
Specialty of the House: The GG's favorite was the absolutely sinful Guinness Float -- vanilla gelato floating on stout in a chocolate-rimmed glass which moderated in flavor with each sip, yet just delightful from top to bottom.
Presentation: Elegant, yet permissibly casual.
Value: Very good and a very enjoyable, a visit which offered a relaxing lunch in a quaint atmosphere of perfection.
Summary: Casual gourmet dining. To Kiki's Restaurant, the Goffstown Gourmet awards four and four-sevenths pumpkins out of five total!
Thank you Julie, Jason, Joe, Iris and a special thank you to owner Kirsten Montgomery for bringing such a fine eatery to the Community of New Boston. We will gladly return and highly recommend your Restaurant.
