“I needed a quick snack while I was waiting for a family member to get her hair done next door. I ordered the baba ghanouj, which comes with pita. Incredibly delicious, homemade baba!

“I created my own bowl with spicy tuna and salmon, and I tried the volcano sauce. The volcano sauce packs some heat, which I love. Great variety of toppings to choose from and also multiple kinds of seaweed--which I also love. Good price for the portion, IMO, and everything was very fresh. Would highly recommend to anyone seeking a top-notch poke bowl.“

“Awesome We always happy with everything“

“I enjoy Cava every day, but especially when I am on my way to an event! Jeff, Luz,&Cris are just a few of the employees that bring charisma and good customer service to the Cava Experience! Thanks for helping my stay healthy. PS the right rice is my fav!“

“This self-served salad bar is perfect! Everything keeps clean and staff wearing gloves. Though they have different choices of Korean food, I was attracted by this fresh variety of salad and it’s so flavorful and tasty. Great for vegetarian and veggie lovers, can’t ask more for this summer ! Highly recommended the place.“

“Delicious pizza. One slice is actually two huge slices! Affordable prices. Will visit again.“

“Food was amazing! Happened upon this while touring Boston and loved it so much, we came back the next day for more. Small space, and serve your own drinks, but the food is worth it. We had their garlic bread, burger, fries, baked ziti and pizza.“

“The food here is everything! If you like sauce get extra bc it might b a little on the dry side, so u always ask for extra or you can even buy your own bottle for 5 bucks. The only reason it’s not getting 4 stars is because there’s no parking anywhere…“

“The food at the Shy Bird in Fenway was absolutely delicious, especially the Chicken Dunks with the homemade sauce dips they were all so good we couldn't choose a favorite and the butternut soup was absolutely incredible, with its little kick of spice and sunflower seeds! Our server was top-notch,very attentive, friendly and made excellent recommendations. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a special occasion. The flavors were perfectly balanced and the presentation was beautiful, and the staff was friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a great dining experience. We are looking forward to our visits this summer during the Red Sox games.“

“I only visited to quiet 🤫 hunger pangs, the unauthorized sequel to Games 🎯, and I was short on time. The Furikake Mac Salad appetizer looked good, the ingredients read okay, and the price is right ▶️! It tasted good and held me over till dinner.
Service was good. I was given a smile. I ordered at the self checkout screen.
I am curious about their items on the menu. They have multiple locations and I am going to recommend this one.
There is a dining area in the center of the market.
Garlic 🧄 Spam Musubi? I hope Vikings do not show up!“

“Life alive Café
I love the decor of their restaurants . The people are really friendly here. Just remember when you walk in grab a menu figure out what you want and then they’ll bring it to your table. The smoothies and teas are delicious. I’ve had salads and warm bowls. Very healthy and worth the price.“

“Kenzoku Mazesoba is a great eatery for comforting, brothless ramen (mazesoba). The interior is bright and the staff are accommodating.

The meal started with three warm Kurobuta sausages that were topped with pickled red cabbage and a mustard-based sauce over fresh greens. Overall, a well-rounded appetizer with a nice balance of textures, richness, and acid.

Next, the torched Hamachi roll had fresh fish slices laid on a roll and then torched. The hamachi was then topped with black tobiko and complemented with fresh ginger and wasabi. The roll was light and tasty.

The Yuzu Shio Ramen was the standout and featured braised pork chashu and a delicious poached egg. The medium-bodied noodles were a pleasant to chew with the toppings.

The vegetable mazesoba (vegan) included tofu soboro, mix of corn, quinoa, red pickles, and other goodies. It was a lighter flavor and we appreciated the opportunity to order the truffle oil on the side.

Overall, recommended for a casual and pleasant dinner among family and friends. The food quality and atmosphere make this hidden gem a great choice.“

“I was excited to find this restaurant. I am severely allergic to nuts and fish and they are nut and fish free in their Brookline restaurant! The food is delicious, the wait staff are so nice, and I didn’t have to worry about my allergies! Highly recommend.“

“Great food!! Always fresh and good. Thanks Matt for all your help!“

“Worth a trip on the T to JP just for this pizza. Small place with 3 stools to sit so grab your pizza and find somewhere to eat it. Got the Salsiccia pizza and the pesto sauce was delicious and pizza was cooked well. no soggy slice. It was a 15ish minute wait“

“Grilled Clams make it so worthwhile“

“Awesome pizza.. huge slice“

“Exceptional Italian food. Extremely pleasant and generous offerings. Strongly recommend to family and friends.“

“Great time last night!! Highly recommend. This restaurant went above and beyond to accommodate a fundraiser that was held at the restaurant.“

“fast and efficient customer service. Definitely recommend the Hamburger and fries“

“Best Mediterranean food I've had in decades. Everything was delicious. Couldn't be better. I had the kofra kebab plate, ground beef with lamb, rolled and fried, salad, hummus, garlic sauce and tabouli. Look it up. I'm probably not touching it all the great aspects of it. Every part of it was exceptional, full of freshness and taste, each part distinctive in taste and presentation from another part. Not the usual commodification of Mediterranean food present in most imitative restaurants. So many spots are predictable, bland, food feeling like it sat around waiting to be served and unremarkable in every way. Not here. A full size salad, bright, light tastes with just the right amount of a delicate dressing. Not just the typical hunks of greens and ingredients thrown together with no soul and doused in some soybean oil based imitation.It was not the thick flour pita pocket that despite rips apart when you try to lightly stuff it with your salad or grape leaves or tabouli, despite being the thickness of baseball glove leather. This pita pocket was as thin as it could be, not the chewy baseball glove we usually get, yet completely resilient. It held everything I stuffed into it.“

“Food and value can't be beat! That being said, I strongly reccomend to order in-person rather than online. I've consistently found that going into the store will actually get you your food faster, and with larger portions to boot.“

“We’re from the UK and quite literally never tasted or experienced anything like this place. We ordered the pastrami sub, sausage egg and cheese bagel and a cream cheese bagel. Just get everything on the menu though. The people are so hard working and so friendly, and the food was incredible - so much value for money!! If the shop is full for eat-in, then take it to go and take a short walk to the public garden. They also show the prem games! This was just so good. Thank you so much.“

“tasty! fresh and quick. friendly staff“

“Wow what a good meal it was“

“Ah absolutely amazing food! Looked for the highest rated food place around where I was on Newbury street at that point, and this showed up. And the food was so comforting and amazing. We got the lemon rice and chicken, and lamb w/ spicy feta and had an extremely hearty meal!“

“One of the most flavorful meals I’ve ever indulged in! Love the vibes there, and that everything is healthy and organic. Impressed that the prices weren’t too high either! Was just traveling through Salem on vacation in September & glad I found this place. Highly recommend. (Pictures are of the Rainbow Harvest bowl and Blue Magic Smoothie) - which had a kick to it, but tasted like Christmas.“

“We shared the garlic butter chicken stir fry with extra garlic and garlic sauce and the OG cobb salad. Omg…they were both so good and complimented each other well. Damar gave us recommendations of what we could order and the rest of the staff were so friendly. Casual, friendly, delicious and a great spot that’s friendly for the wallet. Will definitely come back!“

“Wooooow! Wife and I are visiting from SC and both agreed that we’d turn into regulars here if we lived in Boston. The birria was maybe the best I’ve ever had, guac was so fresh, and the service was excellent. We have Abuela’s marked on our map for our next visit to Boston, we’ll be back!!!“

“I did not think they had the biggest selection but it was good and love the strawberry lemonade refresher with boba. And it was also a bit pricey. I liked the atmosphere and it was really clean and a pretty nice building and it’s around a good area with a bus stop right outside. I recommend building your own poke bowl and getting a drink because they are all good. Also the vegetables are very fresh.

Kid-friendliness: They were nice“

“I had the south west bowl . It was very good . You got a lot for the money. I could not eat it all . . A little more spice would have been nice.“

“india Pizza in Lexington, MA - A Hidden Gem. I recently visited India Pizza in Lexington, MA, for the first time and wasn't sure what to order. I decided on fried chicken and fried vegetable rice, which turned out to be an awesome choice. The rice came out first, and it was fantastic. The chicken was perfectly crisp, just the way I like it, even though I didn't request it that way. The customer service was top-notch—very professional. I only interacted with one staff member, but the service was fast, and I didn't have to wait long for anything. I highly recommend you try their food. I'll definitely be coming back. Excellent service all around! I'm not a person who try different culture foods. The reviews sold me. The Service I received again was top notch 👌 👍“

“Yesterday was the first time we tried the pizza at Pizzeria Enzina...Wow... and we are so glad we did. My husband and son ordered a calmelized onion and red pepper version and I tried the vegan veggie pizza. We were thrilled at how delicious each slice was and we loved everything, from the taste of the dough to the generous amount of toppings and how incredible the vegan cheese on mine tasted so amazing...yes my husband and son both swiped slices of mine... it was that good. So happy we found you Enzina....my new favorite ....can't wait to try other dishes and the canoli too!!! We are so grateful for such a wonderful meal!!“

“Delicious food. Great service. With a great balance of healthy and tasty offerings.“

“Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend their food:)“

“Miraku Boston is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Japanese flavors. I’ve been here a few times and it never disappoints. The Yaki Shoyu Ramen has a rich, savory broth infused with umami-packed Rishiri Kombu and perfectly reduced soy sauce. It truly matches what you would eat in Japan. The Shio Ramen is light and refreshing with tender noodles and traditional toppings that make every bite comforting. The Miraku Katsu Curry is crispy, hearty, and full of flavor, served over rice with their signature curry broth. The Strawberry Cheesecake is creamy, tangy, and the perfect sweet finish. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and there is convenient parking, making it easy to enjoy a meal here. Every visit feels authentic, delicious, and completely satisfying.“

“Great food!! It's a do not miss when I'm working in town, near the Boston Garden!“

“Chipotle chicken Melt on a wrap“

“The best restaurant in Dedham! Always spotless, with friendly staff who make you feel welcome every time. The poke bowl is absolutely out of this world. If you’re looking for great sushi and a cozy atmosphere, don’t look any further! ♥️“
