FAQs

  • When is this event? Where?
    • Savor the Square is Thursday, September 28th from 6:00 – 9:00 pm at St. Nectarios Greek Orthodox Church at 39 Belgrade Avenue Roslindale Village. St Nectarios is across the street from the Commuter Rail, and steps from the 35, 36, and 37 bus stop at Belgrade Ave and Robert St.
  • Why should I come to this event?
    • Savor the Square offers something for everyone, from the life-long resident who has previously attended every Taste of Roslindale event, to the new resident interested in exploring the neighborhood, to the Roslindale neighbor curious about our foodie culture. There will be food from 14 Roslindale restaurants, live music, a silent auction, photo booth, and promises to be a fun, upbeat event!
  • Is this event the same as Taste of Roslindale? Why did you change the name?
    • Yes, Savor the Square was previously called Taste of Roslindale. After many successful years, we are excited to bring a new energy to this event and wanted to reflect that in the name. Savor the Square will have a bit more of a food festival vibe, from the colorful decorations to the gypsy jazz-style music. Less of a sit-down event, the event will offer more opportunities to sample different foods and engage with your local shop and restaurant owner over their “signature bites.” This year instead of a flat, all-you-can-eat entry fee of $40, we are using “taste tickets.” You can exchange a taste ticket for a small plate at each restaurant. Tickets are sold in packages in advance, ranging from $20 - $200, and individually at a slightly higher cost the night of the event.
  • What ticket package do you recommend?
    • That depends a bit on what you’re hoping to get out of the event. If you can only stop by for a short time, or just want to sample a few restaurants you haven’t tried before, the $20 package offers 5 taste tickets. You’ll get to try a couple of things, but might not be equivalent to a full meal.
    • The $40 package offers 10 taste tickets, and is more of a meal. With 10 tickets, you’ll get to sample most of the restaurants and enjoy a diverse representation of the Rozzie food scene.
    • The $60 package offers 15 taste tickets, and is perfect for someone who wants to try all 14 restaurants (plus, go back to your favorite for seconds).
    • Both the $100 package (30 taste tickets) and the $200 package (65 taste tickets) offer savings on the per ticket price. These are ideal for the true Roslindale food lover, or couples, groups of friends, or co-workers.
  • Will there be options for vegetarians and vegans?
    • Check out the list of what each restaurant is serving above. There will be a lot of vegetarian options, but vegans and those with other dietary restrictions should review the list and decide if this event will be a good fit. In addition to food, there will also be a bar, live music, a photo booth, and a silent auction.
