Michael Timothy's

User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I dine out to restaurants on a regular basis. I have eaten multiple times at Michael Timothy's. I will drive 45 minutes out of my way for this place. This is fine dining in a casual atmosphere. The wait staff is knowledgeable and the menu changes weekly. This is one of my top restaurants in Nashua, NH and is located right on Main street. Their sister restaurant Surf (excellent seafood) is across the street (same owners) I recommend this restaurant for a romantic evening or any other special occasion. Pricey but excellent food.

I just went there tonight with my wife for our anniversery. Drinks were good, wait staff was nice, decor was nice, salad and bread was great! BUT they don't know how to cook a steak. If you get their signature bacon, cheese, tomato and steak tips dish then you are ok. I got the sirloin special and asked for medium, it was raw. Then they tried to fix it, it was cooked well done. They didn't comp the steak but gave us free deserts, you guess what was cheaper for them...bad business decision!!! I won't be back.

Wow. We had been to Michael Timothy's once before and knew we had to go back. We were in Nashua this weekend so I was looking forward to Sunday evening dinner there. The experience far exceeded my expectations.

We started with an appetizer called Carmelized Scallop Nachos. The curiosity alone would have made it good pick, and it was great. 5 nachos, each with a nice scallop, perfectly cooked and excellent presentation. My wife likes few wines, but loves a good German riesling and they had an excellent one. I chose a bordeaux that was very good and both were very healthy poors for reasonable price. We both selected the beef tournedos and were blown away at the craft of the dish. It had a very healthy portion of pancetta that blended well with the grilled tomatoe and the reduction. We like our beef med-well, but these were still juicy and delicious. The spinach hollandaise sauce was complementary, neither overpowering nor bland. Brocolli was perfectly cooked. And a tower of seasoned mashed potatoes was perfect to clean up every drop of sauce and gravy. Two breads accompanied the meal -- the darker with cinnamon and cranberries (or maybe currants?) was very good. The table next to us ordered the soft chocolate cake with cream and strawberries for desert and it looked awesome. Unfortunately, it was a little disappointing. Nice presentation, and tasted good, but it simply wasn't as well crafted as the rest of the meal.

The staff was very professional; such a treat compared to the casual youngsters of most small town restaurants. These are people who know what is expected in a great restaurant.

Michael Timothy's is a gem. If you are in Nashua, stop in for a great meal in a cozy, artful room. Highly recommended.
