In NO way am I am a Chat-hater; I'd like to make that clear from the outset. If you fancy yourself a fine diner, just check that identity at the door immediately, plant your tongue firmly in cheek, and go on in. You'll actually have a good time. Ironically, some of the menu items at the Chat are decent enough.... More

We have been going to the Chateau for 30+ years, go back several times a year, when we are in the vicinity. Yesterday we went to the Waltham location for lunch. (We've also enjoyed the one on Route 1 Norwood). They do a great job with veal, eggplant and chicken. I ordered the veal Parm sandwich which comes with a... More

I have been going to the Chateau since childhood. The food is always good and the service is good as well.

I have been eating at the Chateau once a week for about thirty years. The early-bird is probably one of the best deals around.It is a full representation of everything on the menu an you just wont find better italian food anywhere at their price. The waitstaff has been there for years and is very friendly and knowledgable. In addition... More

5 took a lunchtime work break at the Chateau. The food was good and tasty, convenient and easy parking. On a Friday at noon, we made a mistake of not calling ahead for a reservation, and had to wait about 20 minutes. Smaller parties seemed to get seated faster. Once we got seated, we were put in a large room... More

For years, we would go to the Chateau Restaurant on School St. in Waltham MA for lunch or dinner several times a week. They had a varied menu and offered a good selection of appetizers at lunch where you could order 1/2 sizes. We loved their 1/2 order of mussels or shrimp scampi which are no longer on the lunch...

I ordered the Italian platter and felt that everything was cooked nicely and very tasty.. my friend got the toasted raviolis and they looked fantastic. left me wanting to come back to order one of those. Overall nice atmosphere and meal was good.... More

We were travelling and not wanting fast food, we exited from I-90 and found The Chateau. We waited awhile before we got our drinks. Once we got our drinks, we placed our order. Food was served fairly quickly once our order was placed. I ordered an eggplant parmigiana which was tasteless. Probably frozen. My husband had a pizza which he... More

So...I hate to do this, I do - this feels like a bad breakup or the slow removal of a bandaid. But...The Chateau just isn't what it used to be. And that makes me sad. I grew up going to The Chateau virtually every week with my family, every family function was held there from baptisms to funerals to anniversary... More

Great choice for our Family Reunion Dinner. We had not seen our NE family in 25 years. The Chateau staff were very accommodating for the 23 of us, with a 2-3 hr allotment of time together. The food was excellent. Especially the seafood. Our New England families come here often & we were delighted to have spent our time &... More
