Food Scene

This restaurant is hard to get in without a reservation, but it is only 2 blocks away, we walk there all the time. We suggest just walking in if you can't get a reservation and sit at the bar, or, there is one long table that if there are spaces you can sit there on demand! The food is pretty awesome if you like ethnic food. A little on the more expensive side of things FYI.

We love this place just a few minutes away, Uber or 25 minute walk. The beer is really good, the dishes unique, really great space almost like open gallery feeling, with warm wood. Outside seating in the summer. Reasonably priced, but not cheap.

This is a Breakfast/Lunch place that you should expect to wait in a long line on the weekends. Students from Tufts love this place. Lots of choices from egg whites to no eggs etc, but tons of dishes really good and lively place.

This place rocks, really lively at night, sit at the bar and watch the chefs work over the fire! The food is reasonably priced and awseome, we love the mussels! It is in Cambridge so you would need an Uber/Taxi to get there.
