The name, Menotomy, pays homage to the Menotomy Indians and the Menotomy Village originally
Settled in 1635. The village was incorporated as the town of Arlington in 1867 following the civil
war as a tribute to Arlington National Cemetery.

Our vision for Menotomy Grill & Tavern is to bring the tavern concept back to the town of Arlington by creating a rustic grill capitalizing on the coziness of a brick house featuring fireplace, open kitchen,
exposed beams, large planked hard wood floors, and historical artifacts and photos. Fostering a
loyal following will be the key to our success, so we welcome you to join us on Facebook for news, special offers and exciting events.

The Menotomy Grill has a wonderful, warm, even cozy atmosphere that makes dining there a real pleasure. The staff are all very friendly and accomodating. We all enjoyed each of our dishes. The shrimp poblano fritters were delicious, the PEI mussels were fresh and savory, the cioppino was a great blend of seafood flavors, the salmon was gone just right and the fish and chips were perfect. This was our second visit, and we are looking forward to coming back.

Consistently good. Not a fancy restaurant, more of a neighborhood reliable relaxed place. Busy with families till 7 or 7:30 then a change over. Menu is not overwhelming but is executed well. Service is attentive. Reservation is recommended on Friday and weekends.

I like Menotomy because it’s comfortable, has good beer and pretty good food. It was a bit too noisy where we were seated. I ordered the veggie burger with french fries. The fries were great; the veggie burger was mushy— not good. My friends liked their pizzas. Service was good. The prices were reasonable.
