Walking into the place, I think it definitely reminds me of home. Really nice smell to it, baked goods, everything seemed fresh. This is family run and owned, you can tell.
I ordered a half Sicilian with bacon online with an order of fries. They had it ready when I got there in like 25 minutes. Friendly enough staff, speaking Spanish. If you, like many of these other reviewers, can’t stand hearing another language in Waltham of all places, maybe don’t go to a restaurant that specializes in ethnic food. They clearly speak and understand English, too. Service could not be more professional on that front.
The food is pretty good. The pizza is tasty. The bacon was really nice and genuine. They gave me a whole lot of pizza. Not so much sauce which is how I prefer it, a little more cheese than average, and a pretty thick crust. Not everyone’s style but the pizza definitely catered to my tastes. Solid 8/10, would absolutely order again.
Fries were pretty standard pizza joint fries, a little crisper than average of anything. Also tasty.
Whole visit was enjoyable and I’m going to order again for sure. Very affordable pricing.
Definitely continue to support small places like this in Waltham. Moody Street is one of the best places to come to eat because of this.
When I got there, the service was just as bad in person. I was completely ignored upon arrival, with no greeting or acknowledgment, despite the restaurant being nearly empty. There were three employees visibly working, yet I had to repeatedly try to get their attention. When I finally did, the older woman who seemed to be in charge was incredibly rude, telling me they were just starting to make my order—two pizzas and wings. When I asked how long it would take, she brusquely replied 5-10 minutes.
I came back 10 minutes later, only to be ignored again. As I waited, I noticed that none of the staff were wearing gloves or hair nets, despite visibly sweating. I saw the older woman handling various items like phones, pens, and papers before touching the food without washing her hands. I asked, in Spanish, if they don’t use gloves, and she rudely replied that they don’t and asked, “What about it?” When I expressed discomfort due to a health condition that makes me sensitive to unsanitary conditions, she began yelling at me, questioning my condition, and telling me I shouldn’t be ordering out. That woman had no manners yelling to the top of her lungs at me.
Her behavior was so disrespectful that my sister and brother had to step in. Eventually, she refunded my money, but the whole experience was appalling. Also, they have a sign that says they will charge you more if they feel you have an attitude. This place is dirty, overpriced, and the staff clearly has no regard for basic hygiene or customer service. I highly recommend staying far away from Tara Restaurant.
UPDATE: Turns out they did have the order so it actually was his problem. I told them to cancel it because there was absolutely no way that I will ever be supporting this terrible business after the way they treated me.
