“Super fun place! Staff is great! Made excellent recommendations about what to have. Great menu selection and everything was very fresh. Great decor and really fun atmosphere! Waiter had a great sense of humor and was really good about making us feel comfortable and not rushed. Cinamon raisin toast was really good as a side to my scramble. Definitely recommend!“
“Ahmed, the owner, is a great and generous man. He has created a perfect place if you want to go somewhere with a great atmosphere, where the staff is friendly and accommodating to all needs. I have been there a few times now and every time have felt welcome, and have been served excellent food. Their breakfast sandwiches are perfect if you need a quick bite to eat before work, or if you go for lunch their menu is excellent offering a wide variety of selections. I honestly would recommend this establishment to anyone looking for something great to eat in the Brighton area of Boston.“
“I recently visited Brookline Lunch in Cambridge on a busy Sunday afternoon for brunch and the place was packed--there was even a line outside! To expedite the wait, I strategically left my partner holding our spot while I popped over to a nearby ATM for cash, knowing this spot is cash-only. After about 30-40 minutes, we were finally seated inside. Despite the crowd, the restaurant exuded a cozy, homely atmosphere. I started off with a Turkish coffee, which was akin to a condensed espresso but had a wonderfully aromatic effect. It was not quite my cup of tea/coffee but I'm more of a latte fan. I could still appreciate the artistry of it and enjoyed trying something different. For my main course, I opted for the spicy sausage shakshuka, and I thought it was a unique take on the dish. Unlike any shakshuka I've had elsewhere, this version felt more like a hearty breakfast bowl, with fewer tomato sauce but packed with all my favorite ingredients--potatoes, sausage, poached eggs, garbanzo, carrots, and delicious naan bread. We read a review that recommended the chili oil sauce and requested some. It added a nice kick to the bowl. We also decided to order the Baklava pancakes to share. While undeniably delicious, they were extremely sweet, with the top pancake boasting generous toppings of pistachio and baklava. It's a unique dish and a must-have for those with a sweet tooth, but personally, I preferred the savory shakshuka. Overall, I highly recommend everyone to try Brookline Lunch at least once. I'll certainly be back, but perhaps when the lines aren't as daunting!“
“Old school diner feel but clean and servers are attentive. Food is consistent and quality is better than most other diners around. If you're coming on the weekend, come early, before 10am for less wait. On the weekdays, they're busy too but not as packed so should be able to get a table with little to no wait. They post specials and uses seasonal ingredients.“
“This place is authentic and warm, the food is simple but delicious, nothing pretentious/fancy, just good food, and we love it for that. The atmosphere is simple and relaxed, great for having a conversation, the service is excellent, and the prices are great. Best breakfast/lunch/brunch in the area!“
“This little bakery is cute. I walked I'm ans quickly realized it was cash only so I did have to go dig cash out of my car. I was greeted by the sweetest woman. The bagels I got were delicious. They were perfectly dense and huge! Only $2 per bagel which was great! 1000% recommend!“
“I had the Breakfast Caprese after reading the reviews and it was delicious! I don’t really like tomatoes like that. My husband said that he hadn’t seen me eat so many tomatoes this year. That’s saying a lot. He had the avocado omelet. Of course I had a bite and it was delicious!“
“The best homestyle food in a comfy small restaurant. So amazing when I’m in the mood for a quick homestyle breakfast, or a delicious panini or wrap off the lunch menu. The food is always freshly made and hot, although don’t expect the prices of cheap diner food. Still, I’ll pay for the quality and great experience every time. Would totally recommend the pancakes, paninis, and wraps.“
“What an absolute find this place was! A little hole-in-the-wall restaurant that's easy to miss. Extremely friendly service with unbeatable prices! Menu fairly limited, but they offer a good amount of specials and you can find pretty much anything you would at most breakfast places. Got a biscuit breakfast sandwich that was on special. Came with home fries and ordered a side of bacon as well. Food came out quick and everything was delicious. Staff seemed to know every customer there or that came in for takeout. I need to become a regular here and cannot wait to come back!“
“Richy's has been around since 1954 and it's clear why. Had a great breakfast- eggs toast hash and sausages- with fresh coffee for $11. The ladies working the counter know everybody and it's just a great welcoming place. Will be taking my daughter for breakfast soon.“
“My favorite family breakfast spot in the heart of Roxbury, always a vibe always great food always love!!! The best coffee in Boston by the way!!! Service is excellent friendly warm, and kind!!! Be there tomorrow morning... sincerely Blue... find me on IG @bluebossMvt“
“Local breakfast/lunch joint. Been a part of Watertown landscape forever!Great food, fast courteous service and wicked good prices! This is a cash only establishment.Had the corn beef hash with 2 eggs (they don't do poached on the weekends); my wife had the egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel. Both super and ample servings!“
“We were craving breakfast food and this was the spot we chose which was perfect bc it was close to the hotel. Everyone ordered their basic 2 egg breakfast, I ordered their Mediterranean Menemen/Shaksuka which was delicious. 1 less star bc the home fries were a bit too soggy for our taste. Both the lady who sat us and the gentleman who took our order were very very kind. I would definitely recommend.“
“Mike’s Patty’s is really tasty. I visited the location within a little plaza as a pop up, but never got to try it. I finally got to try it today and it was delicious. I love how they prepare the egg! It’s such a perfect texture.. well cooked but the yoke slightly uncooked. The price is pretty steep, i paid $23 for a sandwich and a drink. The wait wasn’t very long but parking can be a bit complicated. I would recommend Mike’s.“
“I really love this place, the food and drinks are great, especially since it’s so close to home, work and daughter’s school. I’ve lived in the area my entire life and I understand the crowd here for the most part is very laid back and chill but I think it’s so rude to not have a sense of urgency when you see you have a line of people waiting to order and it’s the morning rush time. I want my tea and I plan accordingly to get it so I can arrive to work on time but it takes me 15 min easily because I have to wait for the employee to finish talking about their hair appointment…inconsiderate and rude.“
“Paul Revere Restaurant is a step back in time (in the best way) to old-fashioned diner style eating. I had to Two Lanterns and some hot coffee. The plate was super filling and delicious while being a no-frills joint. Prices were very reasonable, and you can tell a lot of diners were regulars based on their conversations with staff. Our waitress was great, and consistently checked in and topped our coffee off. We're already planning our visit back!“
“I have to leave a review because the several years that I've been to this restaurant he's always been wicked nice! Food is always been consistently good. That being said, now being a vegan, the only thing I can eat there is maybe hash browns and a banana. I almost feel like it would be too much to ask for him to make some thing vegan, but you can just tell that the food is made with love in every bite.“
