The Top 10 Restaurants in Lawrence, Massachusetts
The restaurant scene in Lawrence, Massachusetts is incredibly varied, ranging from Japanese and Korean to Caribbean and Mediterranean fare in over 150 restaurants. Whether you’re looking for brunch, lunch or dinner, here are 10 top choices for good food in Lawrence, Massachusetts.
1. Japu Restaurant
Restaurant, Peruvian, Japanese
Renowned in Lawrence as one of the most dazzling and delightful restaurants in the city, Japu specializes in Nikkei cuisine: the riveting fusion of Japanese and Peruvian styles brought about from Japanese emigration to South America in the 1800s. Old classics like maki rolls, soba noodles, and teriyaki salmon are jolted to life with the piquant Peruvian flavours of aji amarillo – the ubiquitous yellow pepper that characterizes the nation’s cooking.
2. Cafe Azteca
Cafe, Restaurant, Mexican, Spanish, Vegan, Vegetarian
3. T and N Restaurant
Restaurant, Vietnamese
It’s fair to say that you wouldn’t expect to find top-class Vietnamese pho in the heart of the brisk Eastern Seaboard, but T & N Restaurant has been turning out steaming bowls of noodles and broth to dedicated Lawrence residents for well over a decade. Their pho, rich with beef and bean sprouts, is one of the best bowls in the city, but don’t skip the rest of the menu – their summer rolls are crisp and crunchy; their salads sharp and sour. It’s an unmissable dining experience, bringing the flavors of Hanoi to upstate Massachusetts.

5. Tacos Lupita
Restaurant, Mexican
6. Jim’s Kabob Express

7. Tripoli Pizza and Bakery
Restaurant, Bakery, Pastry Shop, Italian
Tripoli is a traditional, long-standing bakery serving a large selection of homemade pastries and bread, along with pizza. It also offers a direct view over the preparation area where the breads and pastries are made. The recipes are influenced by Sicilian cuisine, as the original owners, pictured on the walls, were from Sicily. You’ll find delicacies like cannoli, cheesecake, strawberry cake and various types of pizzas, beside the staple loaves of Italian bread – all of which are made fresh daily.
8. Pollo Tipico
Restaurant, Caribbean, Fast Food, Spanish
9. Boston Chowda Company
Restaurant, American
Nothing says New England like chowder (pronounced “chow-da” in these parts), and at Boston Chowda Company, you can enjoy the richest and creamiest bowls of the stuff that Lawrence has to offer. Specializing in clam chowder, lobster bisque and liberally stuffed lobster rolls, this New England-style café is a place to find comfort on a chilly day. Arrive hungry, and leave full.
10. Jim's Original Subs and Pizza
Restaurant, American
For well over a decade, Jim’s Original Subs & Pizza has carved out an unimpeachable reputation in Lawrence as the place to go for gigantic, decadent and exceptionally priced subs. Made with freshly baked bread each day, Jim’s packs its footlong subs with handfuls and handfuls of steak, cheese, veggies – anything you could care to mention. Their pizzas are similarly legendary: five-inch-thick pies, stuffed with salami and sauce and topped with mountains of mozzarella. Jim’s is where Lawrence goes to treat itself – a tradition that you can expect will continue long into the future.
