10 Public Tavern

4.2 Good 50 Reviews

565 Broadway, Somerville

• Delivery

“Public Tavern is a great spot to grab drinks and watch your favorite game. We usually go for Trivia Thursdays, which are always a fun time, and the $3 appetizer deal is a nice bonus. The mozzarella sticks are surprisingly good and definitely worth ordering. It can get busy, and with usually only two bartenders managing the crowd, service can feel a little slow at times. That said, the staff handles the rush as best as they can. Seating can also be a challenge. There often are not enough chairs, and if you arrive late to an event, you will likely be standing since someone else will have already taken the available seats. The cocktails were somewhat hit or miss. The caipirinha felt a bit watered down and lacked the punch I was expecting, though the espresso martini was solid. Overall, it is a fun, lively place for trivia nights and game days. With a bit more consistency in the cocktails, it would easily be a five-star experience.”

16 Sakura Asian Bistro and Sushi

4.4 Superb 80 Reviews

263 Elm Street, Somerville

• Take-Out
• Delivery

“Highly recommend! This family owned restaurant is one of my favorite sushi places in the area. The sashimi and sushi are fresh and delicious, and the portions are quite generous. There are a couple of standout dishes there that are especially inventive that we get every time. We love getting the flaming salmon that's cooked over flames in a dinner plate, and the Omakase box 1 filled with inventive nigiri dishes with really well curated flavors. It's an exciting mini omakase experience. The menu is pretty extensive and everyone at our table was able to find something they liked when we visited recently. They had fun appetizers, traditional sashimi, sushi, chrashi, and maki options, as well as some cooked Asian bistro dishes, noodles, and even a few yakitori skewers. It also seems like a great place to go in-person to for something festive. They have a small bar and great drinks. Overall this place has great vibes. It's a super cozy spot and the owners and wait staff are friendly, kind, and welcoming. They're always fun to chat with. Can't wait to go back!”

“I never believed my life will change in such a manner. I saw a review on Facebook about Mrs Craig Vanessa trading skills and before then I have never risk money doing anything online with anybody because I think I was so wise and never want to be cheated but when I contacted Mrs. Craig Vanessa, she explained everything to me concerning trading and the profit I can make within a week I was convinced to give a trial and risked to invest $1,000 and I made a withdrawal profit of $9,000 within a week. I am so happy that I trusted her and she didn't fail me. You can reach her through WhatsApp via her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa”

18 Legal Sea Foods - Somerville

Assembly Row, 301 Great River Road, Somerville

“Had a fantastic dining experience at Legal Sea Foods in Assembly Row, Somerville. We had a reservartion but showed up about 30 minutes early. It was nice that they were able to seat us early even though it was a busy Saturday evening. The ambiance is chic and inviting, perfect for a laid-back evening. We started with a classic shrimp cocktail. The shrimp were large and fresh, served with a tangy cocktail sauce with just the right kick. For the main course, I ordered the lobster roll. The lobster was tender and sweet, perfectly dressed in a lightly toasted bun. It came with crispy, golden fries and a side of creamy coleslaw. The portion was generous and satisfying. My wife opted for the fried fish sandwich, which looked just as appetizing. The fish was crispy outside and juicy inside, paired with the same delicious coleslaw and fries. Service was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. The cocktails were well crafted; my Old Fashioned was particularly good, with a nice hint of citrus. Overall, the quality of food and drinks, coupled with the modern yet cozy setting, made it worth every penny. If you're in the area and looking for great seafood, this place should definitely be on your list.”
