Souper Roll Up Cafe

➤ 726 Cambridge Street Cambridge, MA 02141, United States

Cafe • Cafés • American • Sandwiches

"No soup/sandwich shop compares in terms of price per quality, portion size, and different options in the area. I only started ordering from here about 2 weeks ago and I’ve now had 7 different kinds of soups and 4 different kinds of sandwiches after the first order I started ordering two soups and a sandwich aka a soup to save for later because they’re just that good, every one of them. Price is so very reasonable and depending on which combo you get you can make out with a full sized sandwich and large sized homemade soup for $14.While it’s hard to recommend one thing over another in this circumstance since it’s all been great in their own ways, the Chicken Chowder is something I plan on getting a quart of next time it’s available. The Chicken Barley and Chicken Lemon Rice are ones I plan on getting quarts of in the future as well, and that’s not to discount the Chicken Noodle, Beef and Veg Noodle Stew, French Onion, and the current seasonal Chilled Gazpacha (which I probably wouldn’t have even tried it wasn’t from these guys . It’s all top quality.The Chicken Tarragon sandwich is my favorite in terms of sandwiches although it can’t combo with a soup as of now (please let us! . The best cheap soup combo sandwich is a tossup between the Cilantro Tuna and Ciabatta Sandwich, which are both incredible in their own ways.The only few drawbacks to this place are they don’t have every soup they make every day, are only open until 4PM, and aren’t open on the weekends. That said it’s worth it to plan accordingly for this. I never review anything but this place is worth it it’s the best if you’re a soup and sandwich person like I am."

Food • Lounge • Drinks

"Lizard Lounge is definitely my top choice for a venue in Cambridge; it truly feels like our musical home and offers one of the best environments for creativity. The staff is fantastic, and the food is incredible! 10/10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5"

The Druid

➤ 1357 Cambridge St, Cambridge, MA 02139, United States

Irish • English • American • Pub Kitchen

"Coming here on a rainy miserable afternoon, with luck having not been on my side for weeks, it felt like I was participating in an age-old ritual. Come in from the cold, outside world into the warm embrace of an Irish pub to fill your soul on velvety smooth pours of thick-bodied pints of Guinness and a massive heaping of Shepherd’s Pie. That pie was exquisite, the meat cooked delicately but the portions generous. This is the kind of pub you can only find in the US in Boston. Cheers!"

Cava

➤ 82 Ames St, Cambridge, MA 02142, USA, United States

Healthy • Salads • Falafel • Chicken

"My kids and I went to Cava one evening for dinner. There was a tall man working there—I'm fairly certain his name was Chris. He was very accommodating regarding my kids’ food allergies and took great care to prevent any cross-contamination while preparing our meals. The food and service were excellent. I highly recommend this place and will definitely return."

Talulla

➤ 377 Walden Street, Cambridge, United States

Steak • American • North American • Delivery Services

"I had been looking forward to dining at Tallula for awhile. Unfortunately, it did not live up to the hype and at the end, was priced like a Michelin starred experience without the menu or experience of one. Food: I came with a friend and we both got the tasting menu with the bread basket to start. The bread and butter was actually excellent and the best part of the meal. The opening appetizer was raw scallops, and that was actually quite nice, as it had a floral and peppery taste to it. The 2nd course was fois gras with (more) bread. Perhaps this is where I wish we didn?t start with the bread basket, as the bread with the foie gras seemed like cheap white toast in comparison. The foie gras itself, I felt was ruined. Perhaps I am a purist, but whatever gelatin and berry mix they made with the foie gras taste overly acidic and fruity and took away from the rich, earthy, buttery ness that one would expect. Next up was the pasta I had squid ink cavatelli and my friend had the lobster pasta. Both portions were laughably small and the lobster dish was bland; overall nothing special and we both felt we would get a much better dish at any other restaurant. The protein was a short rib, which was too salty, and again, felt like it lacked novelty. Finally was desert, which again was very bread forward with 2 dense brownies for each serving again, nothing novel, and we could barely swallow it after what felt like such a bready meal as is. Service was okay, I believe our server could tell that we didn?t like the food (we didn?t finish most dishes) and ended up avoiding us in favor of other tables, and it was quite clear we weren?t getting serviced as kindly as other patrons. It also didn?t help they put us at a table right by the door that was constantly open/closing on a 20 degree evening. After a 4 course tasting menu, 1 drink, tax/tip, the meal ended up being $132 just for myself. It was a bit upsetting because I have had truly exquisite Michelin experiences at that price point. Overall, glad I experienced it, but likely will not be returning or recommending."

La Saison Bakery

➤ 407 Concord Ave, Cambridge I-02138-1215, United States

French • Bakery • Persian • Bakeries

"I purposely went on a Sunday for the Brioche Frite because they are only available on Sundays, but I'm kicking myself because I got so distracted by the options that I forgot about my mission once I was there. However, I don't see it in my pictures, so it might not have been out yet since the croissants weren't going to be out for another hour either when I was there (so there is a downside to going at opening).There is a small parking lot and some tables outside, one of which is in an igloo. No tables inside. French Deux (Vanilla Lavender) Latte: This was possibly one of the best lattes I've ever had. Both flavors shone in the drink, which was also milky and smooth. It is quite expensive at $6.40, but it was good enough to make me want to try their other lattes. Pumpkin Cheesecake Slice: Sooo thick but so delicious. Definitely something that you'll either want to couple with milk or the like, share, or not eat in one sitting. Kouign Amann: This seems like one of their most popular pastries, but I didn't like it to be honest. It tasted like a denser croissant, a bit dry and not as flaky or buttery. I didn't taste the vanilla sugar. Scones: All of the scones had a good consistency and were flavorful. I liked the Pesto Gruyère and Feta Za'tar scones; wasn't a fan of the Marzipan Orange scone. Matcha Ricotta Pound Cake: The flavor of this was very good, but the pound cake was dry. Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie: Solid cookie. Delicious flavor and crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside.I'd rate everything that I ordered a 4/5 overall because there were some misses and they are on the more expensive side, but I'm bumping to a 5/5 because the service was stellar. The person who took my order was so sweet and patient."

Paco's Mexican Grill

Lunch • Steak • Casual • Mexican

"位於波士頓劍橋市的墨西哥餐廳，有全天提供的早餐，還有塔克、墨西哥卷、燒烤、沙拉和調酒。這次點了雞肉沙拉和芒果調酒（Frozen mangonada)。雞肉沙拉，烤雞肉調味鹹中帶甜，調味非常好，搭配酪梨、生菜、洋蔥、番茄、烤玉米粒再淋上酪梨沙拉醬，整體味道融和，非常好吃！芒果調酒，芒果香甜好喝，加入點辣椒醬，讓調酒味道更加特別，風味獨特好喝。 This Mexican restaurant in Cambridge, Boston, offers breakfast all day, as well as tacos, burritos, barbecue, salads and cocktails. This time I ordered chicken salad and mango cocktail (Frozen mangonada). Chicken salad, grilled chicken seasoned with salty and sweet, very well seasoned, with avocado, lettuce, onion, tomato, grilled corn kernels and avocado salad dressing, the overall taste is blended, very delicious! Mango cocktail, mango is sweet and delicious, add some chili sauce to make the cocktail taste more special, unique and delicious.

Toscanini's Ice Cream

➤ 159 First St, 02139, Cambridge, US, United States

Coffee • Delivery • Catering • Earl Grey Tea

"I love Toscanini’s.I don’t know how many times I’ve eaten here but today I enjoyed a split micro of Green Tea and Coconut Pandan and was convinced that I needed to share my love for this shop.Everything is great: Banana Bourbon, Strawberry, Chocolate #3 (well anything chocolate for that matter), anything containing coffee, Earl Grey, B3… you name it, it’ll be good.What makes Toscanini’s ice cream so special is how balanced and flavorful it is. The flavor it advertises is what you get — not some flavored cream with a thin veneer of whatever flavor it masquerades around as. What really impressed me was the Coconut Pandan today. I’m of Southeast Asian descent so naturally anything containing Pandan (aka Screwpine) gets me excited. It’s the Vanilla of SE Asia, and it’s delightful, fragrant, and tasty. Toscanini’s nailed the Coconut Pandan flavor — not too creamy, not too coconut-y, not too pandan-y. It’s the Goldilocks of the two flavors, just right.“Just right” describes all the ice cream here. It’s not too cream forward and not too sugar forward. It’s the perfect balance of the two that allows the intended flavor to come through.Anyway, I’m a huge fan and I’m so glad Toscanini’s is in Cambridge. I honestly think about that day I move out of Cambridge and the fact that I may be so far away from Toscanini’s…"

Muku Ramen

➤ 411 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, 02139, United States

Asian • Ramen • Lunch • Casual

"came here for lunch on a workday after being intrigued by their menu. I really enjoyed the food! I got the black miso ramen and pork gyoza. The pork gyoza was good, it came out on a sizzling platter and they poured some tonkotsu stock on top. I liked this presentation and the gyoza soaked up the tonkotsu flavour. I did like the tonkotsu and gyoza flavour together (confused about another reviewer who said they couldn 't taste it? , though the crispiness of the gyoza is lost in the process. However, i think this is the best way to execute this idea if the gyoza were prepared by any other softer method, the skin would just be too soggy. Another note is that the gyoza are served with a really nice vinegary soy sauce, but it was hard to taste it in combination with the tonkotsu flavour. possibly having the dipping sauce be more viscous, like a glaze, would help distinguish the flavours better.As for the black miso ramen, i really enjoyed it. The tonkotsu broth had a good level of funkiness, authenticity, and depth. it was a perfect amount of saltiness for myself as well, such that i could enjoy drinking the broth by itself. the charcoal aromatic oil was interesting too, adding an interesting earthiness, and also it kind of left a lingering tannin/prickly like sensation on my tongue. The thicker, bouncy noodles served as a well picked accompaniment to the broth. And the toppings were all wonderful! The chashu was lean and thickly cut it tasted tender and like it had a nice brining because the flavour was great throughout. I adored the corn fritter so much it added a great texture when crisp, and tasted soooo good when soaking in the tonkotsu. the blanched bean sprouts and ground meat also worked with the dish.finally, i was greeted and served by a stoic and silent but attentive man. He didn 't say much but still knew when to bring my check and when i was ready to order at the exact right time. I really enjoyed this different style of service.overall, i really enjoyed the creativity in the food, and it was cheaper for ramen shops as well. I will definitely be coming back for more i want to try the matcha vegetarian option (it is cool that they have two veggie options!!! never seen a ramen shop have that many options and some of the japas too."

Wasabi

➤ 2088 Massachusetts Ave, 02140, Cambridge, US, United States

Fish • Sushi • Asian • Casual

"Ordered delivery from here through GrubHub on 3 occasions. The first time, my food came more than 45min late and GrubHub offered to refund me. The 2nd time, the delivery driver assigned to my order declined it and I received a message that the order had been cancelled. Today I decided to give the restaurant a 3rd try, with the hopes that I can finally try their sushi. My food arrived but smelled HORRIBLY of cigarette smoke. It was the most disgusting experience. I sent GrubHub a message they refunded me. Then- several hours later, I received a text on my personal cellphone from ‘Brian from Wasabi’ (I’m assuming this is the owner with pictures of my order and a long text telling me off and telling me that the “restaurant isn’t for me.” So, here I am trying to support local businesses I have a wacko owner texting my personal cell, harassing me. Completely disgusted by the lack of customer service here and quality of food!!! Do not support this place!!"

La Fabrica Central

➤ 450 Massachusetts Ave, 02139, Cambridge, United States

Full • Wine • Spanish • Chicken

"On the bright side, our dinner waitress was absolutely wonderful! She was a lovely girl with reddish hair and glasses, though I didn't catch her name. She was not only friendly but also very professional. She even managed to get us a few complimentary entrance tickets to the back room to compensate for our long wait, which we truly appreciated. Once we were seated, the night improved significantly, except for one issue with the bartending service. With a group of eight and various cocktail orders, it proved to be a bit challenging. Unfortunately, one of the bartenders was not very patient with us, which led to some frustration. This was reflected in the drinks, as they were mainly filled with juice and contained very little alcohol. Despite these hiccups, I still have many fond memories of my time at La Fabrica. I would definitely recommend it!"

Le's

➤ 35 Dunster St, 02138, Cambridge, US, United States

Sushi • Seafood • Asiatic • Vietnamese

"The food at this restaurant is fantastic! It’s the best Asian spot I’ve visited in Massachusetts. Whenever I’m in the mood for authentic Asian cuisine—whether it's Korean, Japanese, or something else—I head to Le's. Many other Korean and Japanese restaurants around seem to be run by Chinese or Vietnamese people, so this place really stands out. I highly recommend it. My only downside is that some of the waitstaff can have an attitude, and their service could be better. Also, if you're dining with a group and plan to split the bill, make sure to let them know when you're ordering, not when you're ready to pay."

Dumpling House

➤ 950 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, 02139, United States

Sushi • Pizza • Asian • Seafood

"My daughter loves dumplings and found the Dumpling House on a whim. And what great luck! It is tastefully decorated with a wonderful atmosphere. The service was professional and caring.I was caught off guard by the number of menu options, as was my daughter. We each ordered 2 items we have never tried before. She had the crab and pork dumplings and the scallion pancakes. I ordered the squid with pickled mustard greens and the jellyfish with garlic and sesame.The food was fantastic and more than we could eat. The dumplings however did not survive the meal. My daughter loved them and ate them with abandon.I will have to come back for the duck"

Russell House Tavern

➤ 14 JFK Street Cambridge, MA 02138, 02138-4948, United States

Meat • Pizza • Coffee • American

"Ambiance was decent and wait staff was good. Other than that nothing else I can say positively bout this placeOur meals were luke warm, blend and some of the sides had no taste to them whatsoever. While they have a bar and there own cocktails if you ask for something not on the menu, u probably wont get it. And yes, unfortunately even the cocktail drinks we did order tasted horrible. Bad bar staff..On top of all this, it took them almost an hour for them to bring our food out. Two kids meals, a chicken plate and crab cakes. I was very upset to say the least.Stay away. Go to Perry's Steakhouse next door. Exceptional food, service and bar area."

Cilantro Chinese Cuisine

➤ 1105 Massachusetts Ave, 02138, Cambridge, US, United States

Casual • Asiatic • Seafood • Chinese

"Cilantros is a great Chinese restaurant! You should definitely come here for lunch! The portions are a little bit on the smaller side, but the service is really good and the food taste really good. I highly recommend the shrimp with coconut sauce. The seating area is nice, but it doesn’t look anything to fancy. It’s just a good Chinese restaurant with good food, pretty casual."

Oleana

➤ 134 Hampshire St, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, 02139, United States

Fish • Coffee • Turkish • Ice Cream

"One of the best culinary experience that Cambridge can offer. As one of the top 3 Mediterranean restaurants in Cambridge, Oleana certainly did not disappoint. I’ve been to quite a few upscale Mediterranean restaurants, but Oleana was one of the few places that can masterfully combine the authentic and contemporary elements of Mediterranean cuisines. Oleana focuses more on the Turkish dishes which also makes them stand out a bit more, We started off with the whipped feta which was a great representation of how spices are used in Mediterranean dishes. The subsequent hot meze plates Vermont quail kebob, moussaka, borek, trout spanakopita were also spectacular. While the spice levels have been compromised to make the dishes more palatable, the subtle scent of different spices was adequate to make them interesting. For the entrées, we had the lemon chicken and the Istanbul fish stew. Lemon chicken was covered in za’atar which is a mix of different spices, and the cheese pancake underneath perfectly compensated for the slightly dry texture of the chicken. Istanbul fish stew was the only menu that I thought was a tad bland, but it was still a nice introduction to Turkish food. We finished our meal with their signature baked Alaska which was phenomenal. Under the melted zesty meringue were some coffee ice cream and coconut pastry, and I enjoyed every bite of it. Co Highly recommend trying them out, but make sure to make the reservation at least two weeks in advance."

The Hourly Oyster House

➤ 11;13;15;17;19;21 Dunster Street, Cambridge, 02163, United States Of America

Bars • Oyster • Seafood • American

"It was most disappointing. I have dined at The Hourly more than a dozen times mainly for lunch. The tuna tartare which has always been excellent, was this time barely edible, very spicy with different spices and a different color much more brown. My grandson had the Fisherman’s Stew, which was thick and jammed with shell fish, but had a slightly ‘off’ odor, which reminded him of the smelly fishing docks..near us in summer. But the oysters were wonderful, the tuna crisp was very good. And the attentive waitress was terrific and I appreciated the fact that the manager wanted to know about our experience. By now I hope it has all been corrected. It is a terrific restaurant nearly always!"

5 Spices House

➤ 546 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge I-02139-4029, United States

Lunch • Vegetarian

"The stir fry lamb seems chewy and old. The dishes we ordered both looks and smells uninteresting. A sub par imitation at Szechuan food while charging a premium sit-down price. This place feels like a place with cooks that just put ingredients together and the quality is not there. This is not a place that I'd make a special trip out for. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30 Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2"

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store

➤ 2329 Southgate Pkwy, 43725, Cambridge, United States

Store • American • Breakfast • Delivery Services

"We had an outstanding dining experience with delicious food and exceptional service. Our table was promptly seated, and our meals arrived in under ten minutes. Our server, Amber, was incredibly attentive and extremely kind. The restaurant, restrooms, and overall environment were spotless. I highly recommend this Cracker Barrel! I had an Iced Vanilla Latte and a homemade Chicken BLT, which were both fantastic."

Waypoint

➤ 1030 Mass Ave Cambridge, MA 02138, 02138-5319, United States

Bars • Seafood • American • Oyster Bar

"My wife and I wanted a nice laid-back place to sit outside and enjoy a fun dinner. We ended up being very disappointed by the service. Our server took about 10-15 minutes to get to the table (which feels like an eternity when you are waiting to order beverages). They took our drink order and quickly returned with a cocktail and waters but the beer we ordered was delayed by a few minutes. Not a big deal, but then the night went south. We didn't see our server again for a very long time. We started to feel like our appetizer was a little delayed when food runners showed up with our entrees. No app in sight. We let them know and eventually the server brought our app. But we were halfway into the meal by that point. The food tasted fine. Nothing extraordinary but not bad. The nachos, I admit, were delicious. The mac and cheese we ordered was described to have bread crumbs but was missing that. Fortunately the server had it taken care of pretty quickly. We were never asked about having our drinks refilled. And after eating, we waited a long time for our check. It just seemed to take forever for everything. None of the problems by themselves would have been a big deal, but together it added up to a somewhat unpleasant experience. The server was nice and apologetic. They also comped us the appetizer which was nice. May have been an off night or maybe a new server, but I can't say I would recommend going on a Saturday night. Also, we did enjoy the outdoor seating area. It was a little tight, but the ambiance was nice."
