A favorite go-to that’s usually a pleasant experience, overall. Nice ambiance with a great origin story, and generally cordial staff. Tasty cocktails and whereas the plates are consistently good/very good and there’s a good menu selection, I’m always looking for more of a “wow” for the price. Says something that I always come back when in town though!

This place really feels like a hidden gem. In the winter/spring it’s a bit unassuming from the outside, but so cozy and homey on the inside. The lobster roll was delicious and we ate it too fast to even get a picture. The bread pudding was also shockingly good and potentially some of the best I’ve ever had. If you’re in Cambridge, 10/10 would recommend stopping in here.

Best part about this place is that they have outdoor seating and are extremely dog friendly! They brought our dog out a bowl of water without us asking! Our dog was even able to have an unseasoned chicken breast cooked for him. The food was delicious. I got the summer melon salad and was very pleased. The aragula and mint went amazingly with the fresh watermelon. My salmon was fresh tasting and cooked perfectly. My drink was mixed well and they definitely were kind with how much vodka they gave me for two shots .

We have tried the lobsters, the swordfish steak, oysters, mussels and clams, and all very happy with our choices. The restaurant is at a great location and there is also the possibility of outdoor seating.

Stumbled upon this joint while checking out the farmers market nearby. Fantastic environment, equally fantastic staff, and spectacularly prepared food that is fairly priced. The deck was perfect and the drinks were delicious. Child friendly too! Can’t wait to come back to try the rest of their menu.

The cocktails are nice here. The rooms are small and intimate. The lobster rolls and Brussels sprouts were very good. The fried calamari and fries were hard. The bathroom is gender neutral. The entrance has stairs.

I had the octopus with a romesco sauce, while my daughter had a lobster role. We enjoyed both quite a bit. The brussel sprouts side was a bit underflavored and relied too much on the bacon to do all the seasoning. The atmosphere is nice and the price point is very reasonable, given the area and the food. Our service was friendly as well.

Amazing fresh seafood. The oysters and lobster were delicious and the corn was sooo tasty. Would love to go back again when I’m in the States.

Tucked in a corner at Harvard square. Food is truly amazing, our server was very nice and courteous. A little pricey but worthy. We ordered lobster role, fish and chips, lobster carbonara and Mac& cheese.
