The tasting menu at Forage is truly a special experience. I love that they can meet any dietary restriction, and will take into account certain preferences. The wine pairing is a delight because they really tell a story about their wines. The waitstaff (sommeliers?) know their stuff, and they never stop to question whether you do too. I find this entertaining and delightful with a hint of imposter complex because I know nothing about wine. The dishes can be a bit hit or miss because they’re rather experimental, but when you’re getting 4 courses you’re bound to get at least a few amazing dishes. Lovely staff, intimate ambience, interesting food, unique wine (ever heard of orange wine?). Could not ask for a better place to celebrate a special occasion.

Love love the locally intentionally sourced ingredients and in house specialties like the cultured cashew cheese. Did wine dinner, some of best wines I’ve ever had. I need to go back to dive into the food more

This is a quintessential farm-to-table restaurant in Cambridge with hit-or-miss vegetarian options set in a lovely little place. The staff are largely folks from what was formerly Ten Tables.

Fun farm-to-table fare. Small dining room and a handful of outdoor tables. Excellent guidance from the staff, enough variety and seasonal (or weekly/ monthly) change on the menu to make return visits a new adventure.

I’ve been wanting to eat at Forage for a while, and got a last minute outdoor dinner reservation. The tasting menu was asparagus (not my favorite) so we went a la carte. Also with the tasting menu, I’m not currently drinking and you can’t exclude alcohol (unlike other places which give you the flexibility to choose whether you want alcoholic pairings). It wouldn’t make sense to pay for the tasting menu if you’re not going to be drinking. They did have one non-alcoholic beer on the menu…that they were out of.

As always, absolutely amazing. It’s a bit pricey for sure but well worth it. We had the vegan tasting menu w/ the wine pairings and it was fantastic! The food looked and tasted so fresh and the flavors were wild! We have always had a glass of wine when eating here previously but this time we sprung for the wine pairings and man was it worth it!! Love having such an amazing vegan option!

A hidden, but well established gem in Cambridge! Nestled into the neighborhood, Forage is an upscale yet unpretentious restaurant serving the most creative craft cocktails and an ever changing seasonal menu. The mushroom souvlaki was amazing. Friendly staff.
