As an anniversary dinner it was generally a disappointing experience as food was not anything special or memorable. Service was slow and not very attentive. My wife's food should have been served with mine not a few minutes later.

Amazing oysters and tuna crudo, and unique twist on cacio e pepe with the lobster. On the pricier side for the size of the dishes and the service was pleasant.
Fred
Relaxing ambiance, professional staff, great food, prices not too over-the-top. We will definitely return.

This place is great! Think its google rating unjustified.

Really great experience from start to finish. Server we had was terrific, everyone's food was amazing, had no problem getting a reservation for a party of 8 on Saturday evening. Ambiance is lively, noisy but in a good way. Very easy to talk despite the noise level. Will definitely go again when back in Cambridge.

Waypoint was such a great experience. The décor is great, the vibe matches the food perfectly, and the service was excellent from start to finish. The clam pizza was outstanding and full of flavor, and the cacio e pepe lobster pasta was rich, perfectly balanced, and clearly made with fresh homemade pasta. The branzino with salsa verde finished everything off beautifully. The only thing to note is that the high-top seating can get uncomfortable after a while, and the footrest doesn't really help much. Requesting a booth or lower table might be best next time. Overall, everything felt thoughtful, delicious, and well-executed.

This restaurant is a little tired and the service was very slow despite it not being very busy. The food was acceptable, but not inspirational or delicious.

We had such a good time here during the Harvard family weekend. I liked the table size which was small enough to have a good conversation but also big enough for the dishes to share. We had a grilled branzino which was worth every penny even though it was a bit pricey. Generous size fish was very very fresh. The salad and potato on the side were so good too. The salmon dish was delightful, and the burrata was so yummy. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Service is slow - except for one server most were cold (not rude but not warm). Disappointed for a place that charges handsomely.

Although we arrived at the restaurant at 9:00 pm, we were greeted warmly and seated at a booth near the open kitchen. Our server, Michael, answered questions about the menu and gave us perfect recommendations about the wines. A lovely experience after a long day flying across the country.
As always, amazing ambience and very good service. Unfortunately the food has not stood the test of time. Everything drenched in butter and over salted. Very one dimensional food, all very well prepared. Could use a reboot.

Great food. Very flexible for a group with a list minute Friday reservation. If you want good seafood and cocktails, I’d recommend it!

Loved the food presentation and the fun dishes. It was perfect for our group. We were able to hear each other and have great conversation. The service was on par, too.

A hidden gem. Great place for seafood and Italian food. This is not the traditional meatballs and pasta place, much more creative!

Excellent creative food and cocktails. We've eaten here before and every time it has been good.
