Strip-Ts is a charming Watertown spot serving up a creative all-day menu in a cozy coffee-shop vibe, where even diner-style comfort meets culinary excellence.
"Strip-T’s in Watertown was known for being a great, albeit unknown initially, spot frequented by early regulars." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"As Watertown’s beloved Strip-T’s marches toward its planned closure — exact timeline TBD — owner Paul Maslow has been keeping fans updated on social media regarding the shrinking operating hours and menu. Dinner service ended over the weekend, and Maslow currently plans to keep the restaurant open from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday throughout June, serving a small menu that includes the N.Y.C. pho real, the eggplant banh mi, and a little bit more." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"Many successful restaurants tend to fall into one of two camps: They’re either classic, comfortable mainstays with a solid neighborhood fan base or they’re daring and weird, pulling in food enthusiasts from all over and snapping up breathless press coverage and acclaim locally and beyond. Strip-T’s, somehow, has been both of those things. Now it is closing, the Globe reports, and that’s a huge shame." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"Over at Strip-T’s (93 School St., Watertown), talented couple Peter and Mareena McKenzie — both alums of Shepard in Cambridge and a lot of other local spots, including Strip-T’s defunct sibling, Ribelle — are now in the kitchen, with Peter as chef and Mareena as pastry chef. Look out for new dishes such as the Octo-Dog (a grilled octopus sandwich), the Mother and Daughter sandwich (it’s got fried chicken and an egg yolk sauce), daily pie specials, doughnuts, and more." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
