“Oh my god! It’s like someone read my mind and built this place for me. If only these could replace all the McDonald’s out there and of course everyone could afford it. Our healthcare costs would come down to free universal healthcare. Basically how Europe manages this is by having real food available everywhere. And the population needs way less overpriced medication because of it.“
“Best burger in Boston hands down! Whenever I am craving a giant, the size of my face, mouth watering burger, it has to be a burger from Lee's burgers! This location is not that big but it has a few tables and stools to dine in. It's an order at the counter and if you dine in they bring you your food to the table. My bf and I were craving juicy burgers so we drove up to Lee's. It was busy Saturday night, they had a lot of pick up and orders to go but we found a table to sit and dine in. I ordered the usual which is the two patty Lee's burger and my bf got their other signature burger. The fries came out first and they were perfect! They were super crispy and thick just how I like them. Our burgers came out next and they came out nice and hot! My Lee's burger was neatly wrapped up to keep it together because it was fully loaded! My burger was packed with bacon,peppers, grilled onions, fried egg and french fries and it was amazing! It was challenging to keep it together as I enjoyed every bite but I managed to devour it just fine. It really hit the spot!“
“The service is good could be better the main problem I had was when you ask for a breakfast taco and they give you a chicken now if under the breakfast taco it says between this time and this time then I would under stand but I ordered three orders of breakfast tacos and I got three chickens “
“cute little restaurant in brighton! everyone who works here is so kind and service was amazing. we got the salmon bowl, fried chicken sandwich, the brown sugar ginger latte and a smoothie and we loved everything. the space is cozy and clean. definitely coming back!“
“What an adorable place! It's decorated so cute, definitely a place to sit (plenty of seating) and enjoy something sweet. There's tons of international snacks to choose from in addition of ordering from the counter for ice cream, donuts and a ton of different drink options. Ordered 2 chocolate and a cinnamon mochi donut- buying more lowers the cost per donut. And a honey lemon green tea with Boba per their recommendation and it's sooo good! Super refreshing. It totaled $20.33, and was able to pay via Venmo. We will be back!“
“C Fruit Life is seriously the spot for dessert lovers! I recently tried their bingsoo, and oh my, it was like eating a fluffy cloud. I went for the mango bingsoo, and it was bursting with real mango flavor. You can totally tell they use top-notch ingredients.Their black sesame ice cream? Unreal. Packed with sesame seeds, it's like a flavor explosion in your mouth. Seriously, the best ice cream ever.Oh, and don't even get me started on their mango-wrapped crepe with whipped cream. It was just as tasty as it sounds.But here's the kicker - it's crazy affordable. I mean, $8 for a bingsoo that can easily feed three? That's a steal!I'm already planning my next trip because there's so much more on their menu I want to try. If you're after delicious desserts that won't break the bank, you've gotta check out C Fruit Life. Trust me, you won't regret it!“
“This is a great place to eat breakfast - and there are not enough places like this one in the Boston area!A big plus is the fact that they serve fresh and amazing pita bread.It is quite expensive, and some of the dishes are too small for their price. The shakshuka is big and great, but the salad of the labaneh and beets for example is really small and has just several small cubes of beets. (The labaneh itself was very good).“
“Initially I was concerned that I wouldn't find any vegan options in Boston. The Life Alive Organic Cafe in Cambridge was a great find. They are plant based having vegetarian and vegan options. The food is fresh, quality and the tastes a great.A wide range of dishes including warm grain bowls, salads, wraps, noodles and soups, and desserts. The beverages include smoothies, cold pressed juices, coffees, teas and suoerfood.lattes.This is definitely on par with the best vegan food I have had in London. Free WiFi, great food and service what more could you ask for. A short distance from MIT you should put it on your to do list.Pictured are Miso Tofu Ramen, Grilled Pita and Blue Breeze.Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“Yummy and healthy bowls. I got two dishes and split with my friend broth based and a rice based. Both were really different and delicious! They had just opened their baked goods part of the restaurant so they gave away pastries with the purchase of a meal! Updated from previous review on 2024-02-19“
“Julia is one of the kindest and most thoughtful human beings I have ever met and her hazelnut iced lattes, breakfast sandwiches, and baked goods are delicious! It feels like stopping by a family member or close friend’s home every time we pop in. Our dog learned the words “coffee shop” because of Julia and her treats. Well worth any wait when they are super busy- Julia genuinely cares about you and your order no matter how many customers she has!“
“Ordered on a whim on Uber Eats and was thrilled after I took the first bite. Everything we ordered was delicious, portions were great, and the food was packed nicely! Came back the next day to order again because it was DELICIOUS! Will definitely be returning and telling others about this place.“
“Was nearby and wanted to try new boba spots and saw this place had açaí too so we had to try it. The space is super long. Unfortunately boba was no longer on the menu. But the açaí was really good. I got super hyped when I saw they had different bases, I couldn't decide on what to try. We got a Berry Delicious açaí base bowl, and a Paradise Pitaya base bowl, and a Açaí berry smoothie. My fiancé devoured his açaí bowl no problem. And the pitaya base was so good and fruity. I saw they have a green base and a spring time mango base too. Definitely gonna have to come back and try it!“
“The BEST poke in Boston, period! I have tried all of them in the area and always left hungry and disappointed for the same reason, 90% of the bowl is rice with a few pieces of fish. This place is different. The bowl has a generous amount of fresh, high quality fish, reasonable amount of rice and other ingredients that make the bowl coherent in flavor. It tastes amazing and it is very satisfying as well. Couldn't recommend it enough!!!“
“Food I'll come back for! You order at the door, so best to check the menu before coming in, to make sure you get seated the quickest. They'll serve your food after the order. The food and drinks were ?? They do have the cold pressed drinks in bottles. So if you're eating in, maybe skip them. We had the Spicy Peanut Noodles, The Adventurer Bowl, Elote Avacado Salad and and drink Frozen Mochaccno, Orange Blossom Cold Press and Ginger Crush. They were the best.Vegetarian options: All Vegetarian, killer food!Dietary restrictions: Would accomedate any dietary restrictions. All option clearly marked on the menu.“
“Thrive Juice Cafe, very tasty food, love the healthy salads, sandwiches, falafel wrap, bowl, smoothies, strawberry banana.Owner Derek known for few years, he and his employees very kind,Makes me smile when ever I come for lunch, snacks.Everything is made with love for the customers.“
“Amazing service, truly. My friend and I were being picky customers and wanted to modify our drinks after ordering them. I know, we were annoying. But all of the beautiful women behind the counter had everlasting patience and honesty with us as we worked through it together.Yes this is a vague review but all you needa know is that this staff is great, the bubble tea pretty good, but the menu confusing because flavours like wintermelon, mango, honeydew, and Tiger are not listed on the main menu so you have to look carefully for what you want.“
“I am a regular at Cafe Juice Up, go here for all my healthy needs, even when I need a boost in how I feel. Smoothies always come out the way that I like them, sweet and fresh! I also love the açaí bowls, just wish they were bigger for the price that I’m paying. Haitian patties are also really good - I’ve tried both chicken and beef. Can’t go wrong with either or! Sometimes the service is a bit off, some employees good service more than others. But other than that, the environment is accommodating and welcoming.Dietary restrictions: Vegan options for those ordering patties, they do offer fish as well.“
“This place is great if you like music while you're eating (and even if you don't!) they have a wide selection of acai bowls and smoothies with delicious fresh fruit. They have an easy to use app if you'd like to order ahead with a 15% discount code when you sign up for their rewards program. There's plenty of seating and nice paintings all around the restaurant. They even have out free stickers all year.“
“Love this place and the owners, Rosemary and Hydn! They are welcoming and have a fun assortment of fabulous nutritious drinks, smoothies, and snacks. Kids are welcome too and can even get their own special small drink. So happy to have them in the neighborhood!“
“Even from the menu, you could tell that this is authentically Brazilian. They offer many authentic topping options, such as brigadeiros. This place is significantly better than those chain açai and juice spots in town. However, the price was very high!“
“My husband and I stopped by this cute spot at Assembly Square for breakfast. We ordered at the counter, and the service was quick. I saw they have an option to order ahead online as well. Hubby got a smoothie which he liked (forgot which one!). I got the Avocado Avalanche; it was so tasty and had so much avocado. I would definitely get it again!“
“BerryLine is a charming tiny ice cream shop that packs a big punch with its delightful desserts. The variety of toppings available is impressive, allowing you to customize your dessert to perfection. The customer service is top-notch, with friendly staff members always ready to assist with a smile. With its great desserts, cozy atmosphere, and excellent service, BerryLine is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth.“
“When in Boston you must come here! The service here is amazing and the coffee is always brewed to perfection! The thing i like best is the owner Marilda really loves what she does and it shows! Her love for the business and the way it’s run shows in the baristas she hires. Such pleasant people!“
“We came to grab coffee on a whim before heading to an open house nearby. There isn’t much seating, just a small table in the front, so it’s more a grab and go spot. The pastries completely won me over though! So many great and creative options. I will come back to try more!“
“Generally I don't care for boba tea.But was craving some brown sugar boba tea. And some of my other usual spots were either too busy or too hard.I liked the fact I could choose the sweetness level which was nice. Did a 30% sugar tea, and got a egg waffle (also recommended)Tasted good, drank the whole tea, and the ice cream was good too. Venue was cute, but nothing mind blowing. The girl who worked the counter was effective.Not a bad spot for a quick fix.“
“Energize is my all time favorite place to eat healthy and feel my best! Everything on their menu is plant-based, organic, and DELICIOUS -- I order something different every time and am delighted with my choice! And above all, the people who work at Energize make the atmosphere incredibly welcoming, they even know my name! LOVE THIS PLACE!!!“
“A very cozy cafe in Cambridge with friendly staff. They offer a wide variety of vegetarian eats including smoothies, acai bowls, and toasts. I ordered an acai bowl, and the amount was definitely worth the price, and you can tell it was freshly made, on the spot.“
“My son loves their bowls and smoothies.Vegetarian options: All of their menu is vegetarianDietary restrictions: If anyone has nuts allergies then bowls can be modified as per needParking: Parking is freeKid-friendliness: Kids will love their bowls and smoothies. So much nutrition and healthy“
“This restaurant deserves the absolute best review! First, the ambiance is incredible. Very calming, bright, comfy & roomy. I never felt like I was going to push my chair onto someone else which is nice. The service was perfect! Not pushy but attentive. It felt like they were perfectly staffed which also added to the calming ambiance. Last but not least, the food was of the utmost quality with great portion size as well! Everything tasted fresh & authentic. They also had fresh cocktails being made that bar tenders were really putting effort into. This is an all around great place & I'm cheering for them to succeed! If you're in the area definitely check this place out!“
“Life Alive Organic Café has been a consistent favorite of mine during graduate school, serving as a reliable spot for healthy and tasty meals. With over 300 meals enjoyed here, I can confidently say that it offers a great variety of fresh, organic options that cater well to anyone looking to maintain a balanced diet.The café itself has a welcoming atmosphere, making it a great place for both studying and relaxing. Their commitment to quality ingredients and sustainable practices shines through in every dish. The staff is friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience.For anyone in the area looking for nourishing food in a pleasant setting, Life Alive is definitely worth a visit. It’s been a great support to my routine of fitness and yoga, providing meals that are not only good for you but also delicious.“
“i had the opportunity to try energize today for the first time today and the bowl was made so good I recommend to those if you are looking for something healthy and refreshing i spend about 20$ for just me which in today economy is the same as eating junk food might as well spend the same amount amount on some food that will be good for you 10/10“
“I’ve tried a lot of bubble tea in the area, and this is by far the best. The tea quality is great (especially the Hong Kong milk tea - seriously delicious!), and they put plenty of boba (that is chewy and fresh!) in each order. The staff are also very kind and efficient, and if you order multiple teas, will pack them perfectly in a cute reusable bag with straws inside. My only other wish for this place is that I so wish they had matcha, which is my favorite flavor and go-to tea, but the quality here is so superior I’ve been willing to switch flavors most of the time to come here!“
“First time trying I ordered a strawberry banana smoothie and the banana pudding egg waffle (I don’t know if that the correct name.) they were amazing. Everything was fresh including the ice cream on the egg waffle. The egg waffle on the right was the strawberry shortcake my bf says it was 10/10. Employees are friendly and the atmosphere is calm.“
“WOW! This place is incredible. Very popular but still has hole in the wall vibes. My parents and I make crepes at home (nothing beats homemade) but these blew us away. There are so many menu options, all delicious and with unexpected fillings, I had a hard time choosing. Ultimately got the John Gouda man with extra goat cheese and mushrooms, and they were VERY generous with the fillings. Omg, I dream about this combo and I imagine the others are just as good. My mom got the half baked- equally impressed. Hers was a bit less stuffed than mine. Dad got a make your own with parsley infused crepe, which I'll admit it also hit the spot. Overall, crepe texture is thick and stretchy (unlike our homemade ones) and Creperie might just become a regular spot for us. We also got the Ruth bader cinnsburg, but i found it wasn't cinnamonny enough. Unsure if I'd get it again- would be perfect with a sprinkling of cinnamon sugar. Inside, the cafe is very small and not the cleanest, there aren't many places to sit and you're lucky to catch a spot. They were also low on utensils (no knives the entire time we were there). But, love, will be returning!“
“Decided to stop by because we were craving boba. Loved everything about this place from the atmosphere to the drinks! High quality and you can tell the owners use fresh ingredients and care about delivering delicious drinks to their customers. Would definitely come here again if I'm in the area!“
“This was my first time to Coco Leaf, but I was really impressed by their staff. I had ordered two drinks including a fruit smoothie before meeting up with my friend. Unfortunately, my friend was busy so I had to wait about 30-45 min before meeting up so I decided to sit in the cafe with my drinks and do some work. The staff member saw that I was there for about 10 min without drinking and asked if I needed to refrigerate it in case I was waiting or otherwise the drink would melt and not taste its best. I was grateful for their observation and kindness. Definitely returning to this boba spot and I can see why they are so well-known outside of Boston. :)“
“I got the Caribbean Sun as a quick choice since I had to run and tutor. I’m glad I did because the kick from the ginger is just what I needed. I also bought raw cashews, which came in handy the next day. I can’t wait to go back and try more!“
“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“
“SO HAPPY I found Juice on Main!! The 3-day juice cleanse was perfect. Delicious juices, different every day, and big bonus: you know they are fresh because they actually put expiration dates on! (None of the juice delivery services dare to do this!) Thrilled to be able to have a way to juice AND support a local business.“
“Best place hands down. Went there today and only had 6$ whilst my order was 6.30. I had asked for a medium and ended up getting a large with no extra fee. And not to mention how fast it is made. Nicest person I met today. 100% recommend to go here.Kid-friendliness: very comfy and cozy.“
“My husband and I recently embarked on a transformative 3-day cleanse with Cocobeet, and I must say, it was an absolutely amazing experience. So we were captivated by everything about the company, from its incredible food to its outstanding owner, Onur.Speaking of Onur, he went above and beyond to make our cleanse journey truly special. Not only did he personally deliver the cleanse to us, but he also thoughtfully included a few items for our 3-year-old daughter, Sunny, so she could feel included. This gesture made us feel incredibly valued.I was beyond thrilled to undertake the cleanse, and I was delighted when my husband decided to join me, despite his initial apprehension and nervousness. He loves food and dislikes feeling hungry. However, he soon realized that by following the cleanse schedule and staying hydrated with water in between, hunger was not an issue. During the cleanse, I opted for a powerful combination of the Reroot and Plant Packed cleanse, while my husband found success with the Transition and Reroot cleanse. We were both pleasantly surprised by the level of focus and mental clarity we experienced during the cleanse. It's truly remarkable how much we were able to accomplish, both physically and mentally, in just a few days. We even incorporated light workouts into our cleanse routine, further enhancing the overall benefits.Not only did we both achieve weight loss during the cleanse, but we also felt an immense sense of accomplishment. I lost 5.3 pounds and my husband lost 10 pounds in just 3 days! The thought of returning to our previous eating habits after experiencing the positive effects of the cleanse is simply unthinkable. We are now dedicated to moving forward and nourishing our bodies with only the best, embracing a lifestyle of greatness.Some items that brought us joy during the cleanse: Topping the list is the incredible chocolate mylk, which is not only rich and delicious but also leaves us questioning how something so indulgent can be so healthy. Even our 3 year old daughter, Sunny loves it! The royal basil smoothie quickly became a personal favorite for me with its refreshing taste. The black rose drink never failed to astonish our taste buds with its light and refreshing nature, making it a delight to consume. The heartbeet booster always provided the energy we needed for great workouts and productive days. The dr turmeric booster surprised us with its tasty flavor and gentle kick. And how can we forget the top-tier vegan Caesar crunch salad? The crunchy vegan cheese crumbles, sun-dried tomatoes, and capers made every bite a delight!In summary, Cocobeet deserves a perfect 10/10 rating. It offers a healthy, organic, and refreshingly transformative experience that we highly recommend. Thank you, Cocobeet, for providing us with an exceptional journey towards wellness and nourishment. You truly are amazing!Here’s a pic of our completed cleanse!“
“Like similar, family-run Vietnamese delis, this is a simple, casual venue offering sandwiches and light dishes, with plenty of room to sit inside and enjoy your goodies after you order them at the counter. Think banh mi, pho, rice dishes, and bubble tea drinks. A cold cut banh mi, for example, featured a generously sized baguette that was reasonably filled with meats and veggies - a solid, delicious deal at $6. There are also ready-made appetizers and rolls, if I remember correctly, that you can grab to go. So if you're traveling along busy Main Street and are looking for a decent, healthier alternative to, say, American fast food at prices that are the same or even cheaper, then this is an excellent choice.“
“This review is long overdue - I basically *live* at this place - easily get about 7+ orders here a week. When trying to eat enough greens and veggies, etc. I find it's easy to throw away a lot of produce / generate a lot of food waste and I find the prices to be reasonable for the high-quality food that you get in the right proportions. The salads are enormous and when I compare the cost of all the ingredients if I were to buy it all myself. I'm a recent cancer survivor so eating as healthy as possible is critical and this place is just awesome. Also, the people that work here are *the best*! If I ever move, I think I'll miss this place the most! Thanks for having a great place with truly healthy food alternatives!“
“I stumbled upon this gem as a result of taking my two toddlers for ice cream at JP Licks. The place was very clean. The menu was very intuitive. The ingredients were on the wall with benefit descriptors. Staff were very nice and helpful with helping me decide which juice blends to get.“
“So excited to welcome this new spot to the neighborhood. We dined in, and I was impressed by the food. Everything was flavorful and fresh. We ordered a pork burrito and quesadilla, yuca and plantains, an horchata and banana smoothie. I'd recommend all of them. Prices are totally reasonable, and I brought leftovers home. Service was a bit slow as they were filling online orders. Ambiance isn't special but fine. Will definitely be back.“
“Food is SO TASTY. So delicious. There's a huge DIY bowl station to customize your meal. Vegan/Vegetarian options. Authentic hispanic beans mixed with a modern, healthy take, and they are so kind and patient while I asked what was what while ordering. Highly recommend making a bowl and the smoothies!Vegetarian options: Customizable food, easy to get exactly what you want.“
“Love the customer service, great Black owned Business. Nice Art on the Walls and health yet great options for something sweat. Love the Acai bowls and the drinks are something worth tryingVegetarian options: Most things are vegetarian by default like acai bowls, milkshakes and ice cream just because it would be werid if they had meat in it.Dietary restrictions: Non-dairy options great for those who can't have dairy“
“Life Alive is part of a plant based dining chain focused on nutrient dense dishes and seasonal ingredients. Each dish feels super healthy yet delicious and doesn't leave me feeling heavy after eating it. There is a nice variety of flavors available on the menu and the only item I've tried and not liked is the acai bowl. Prices are a bit high but I'll definitely be back in the near future.“
“From the warm ambiance to the impeccable service, every visit is a delightful experience. The staff's professionalism and warmth create a welcoming atmosphere. The diverse menu features expertly crafted dishes with fresh, high-quality ingredients. What sets this cafe apart is its commitment to accommodating dietary needs. The presentation of each dish is artful, and the cozy decor adds to the charm. Whether for a business meeting or a casual catch-up, Kneeland Cafe exceeds expectations. A top-rated gem in the city!“
“Binka makes the best smoothies to bring you back after a hard workout! I recommend the Almond Berry or Coffee Heaven smoothies to renew yourself - I stop in faithfully after a workout several buildings away from 11-11 Health Bar twice a week, and her drinks bring me back! And Binka is really nice and fun!“
