“This was our second time dining at Ebi Sushi, and just like our first visit, everything was fantastic. The food is fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared every time. Our server, Amanda, was wonderful friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. It’s service like hers that really adds to the experience. Jose, the owner, has truly outdone himself with this place. You can tell he takes great pride in what he’s built from the quality of the dishes to the amazing team that brings it all together. We’ll definitely be back again before the new location opens, and we’re looking forward to visiting that one as well. Ebi Sushi has become one of our favorite date night spots consistently great food, great people, and a great vibe. 🍣❤️“

“Maaaaaan, Pork Belly Burnt ends!!! That’s it…that’s the review!!! 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥“

“Hands down the best in Davis. Don't think twice about going to eat here! 10/10 atmosphere 10/10 staff 10/10 food 10/10 drinks Don't believe me? Go and see for yourselves! :)“

“We loved the food at Celeste, as we do that of La Royal as well. The causa with tuna tartare and mixed ceviche were both excellent, as was the special, seafood soup, more like a cioppino but with a lighter broth and Peruvian flavors. (Lots of bell peppers but you could probably ask for it without them if you wish. For me they were easy to pick out.) It took a while to order but then the food came fast. The cocktails are great and we are usually too full for dessert. Best to avoid the tables by the door on a cold night due to cold air coming in. Look forward to the new place in Boston, too, from the same owners!“

“Melissa brought me the vegan empanadas they had made with their collab with Impossible meat. And do you know how hard it was to not eat all 4 at once?! So flavorful and yummy! The ingredients were well distributed throughout, the dough was absolutely delicious and everything was perfectly cooked. Everything she does is amazing and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!“

“This was the best night out I’ve had with my husband in a long time. The food was spectacular- I suggest the mezze platter so you can try everything, and of course the koshari. The mushroom fritters they had as a special were divine. The atmosphere and quality of service were top-notch and we will absolutely be coming here regularly.“

“First time at the bakery. It has a small area for seating, seems geared to take out. We ate inside, team members were pleasant and helpful. You place and pick up your order at the counter.
Small selections, but everything we had was delicious. The breakfast sandwiches we had were a bit on the spicy hot 🌶 side, but ok 👍 for us.
Great place for quick ☕️ and breakfast or bakery item.
They had great music 🎶..in the background.“

“This was my Daughter's birthday weekend and we wanted to Take her to one of the places that Guy Fieri Visited for DDD...making memories. What we got was so much more. Truthfully the Best dining experience we have EVER experienced. The hostess was super friendly and immediately made accommodations due to the fact that I am currently in a wheelchair. The atmosphere was astonishing!!! The food...we truly cannot say enough good things about an are planning when to take the trip from Vermont again to get more. We were blown away . However the highlight of our evening hands down was our Server Kevin!!! He made my Daughter's night ...focused on making her smile and gave her a piece of cheesecake to celebrate. We will remember this forever and simply cannot thank you enough“

“Outstanding Indian food, we are so lucky to have Masala in Union Square.“

“Super great staff and very knowledgeable in their dishes! Mahalo!!“

“Absolutely fantastic place to get some food and the location is a great spot to experience other places to eat. The staff were friendly and the food was made quickly. Their cauli-falafel was amazing! Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for a light vegetarian dish!“

“Excellent food, lots of menu options for gluten free, spicy, low calorie and all are very flavorful! The tamarind crispy chicken is an excellent choice! Staff is very attentive and kind, and there’s a discount for paying cash! A must-try!“

“All you can ask for in a wine bar.“

“Imo, Union Square lacks great pizza. Sure, all the Indian joints around here make good pizza. Hotbox is great. However, they all feel like a different pizza experience that isn’t the “classic” pizza I’ve been looking for. For me, Caesar’s hits that mark.

Stopped in for a slice of cheese pizza on a 90 degree day in June. No flop, cheese to sauce ratio was just what I like. Atmosphere feels old school, lots of coke memorabilia, good classics being played over the radio. AC was on and I was enjoying a cold bottle of Mexican Coke. Is this not the ideal atmosphere for consuming pizza??

Owner was focused but friendly. I’ll def be coming back!“

“Great spot for delicious vegetarian food as well as fantastic smoothies. One of my favorite meals are the rainbow harvest and teriyaki tofu bowls. The rainbow harvest is a party for your mouth and I’m personally a big fan of sweet potato so highly recommend that one. The teriyaki tofu bowls is best ordered in when it’s hot and steaming. The tofu provided is crispy and complimented well by the umame of the mushrooms as well as the saltiness from the soy sauce. I also decided to try out the strawberry and cream chia bowls which satiated my sweet tooth. I love the variety of texture the chia seed provides when mixed with the oats as well as the sweetness provided by the coconut yogurt and strawberries.
One thing I really appreciate about life alive is their nutritional content is listed so if you are looking to track your macros for weight gain, loss or just general health it’s great. While the menu doesn’t have as much protein as restaurants that have meat in them, they are quite satiating as a lot of items are filled with fiber and a decent amount of protein. You surely won’t leave feeling hungry.
The reason I listed the atmosphere as four stars is being a fantastic place attracts a lot of customers and it can be a bit difficult to find seating indoor at times especially seating near a charger incase you are looking to get work done.“

“First time in Nee England and my buddy joined a bowling league. So I told him lets go and I’ll just chill at the bar. This place is awesome! Great flatbread, great beer and great service! If I’m ever up this way again I’m for sure making a stop here.“

“This food was simply mind blowing. Some of the best food I've had anywhere. Can't say enough. Had a chicken bowl and shared beef arepas. Wow. Worth a trip from anywhere.“

“!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Thank you to Chef Jon for allowing us to pick up a package of frozen dumplings during our visit to Artifact on Memorial Day. Cooked them up tonight and they were delicious, as was the edamame salad!!“

“Definitely some of the freshest and tastiest seafood and innovative sushi and asian food I've had in a while, very fresh and tasty!“

“This place was great!! Highly recommend! Awesome atmosphere!“

“First time at Olde Magoun's Saloon. Beyond amazing food and service. Our waiter ( didn't catch him name) tall gentleman with a beard was phenomenal! Friendly and efficient!!! The food was savory and fresh. We enjoyed the Irish Chicken Curry and the Besto Pesto sandwich!! First time to Boston and by far our favorite meal here.“

“Remnant Brewing is always a good time. Great beer, friendly staff, and an easygoing vibe that makes it the perfect Bow Market hangout. Whether I’m meeting friends or just stopping in for a quick drink, I always have a great experience here. Highly recommend.“

“Not sure if the opinion of a very pasty Mainer counts for much;but the tacos and guacamole were the best we have ever had! Food was great and the service was phenomenal! We had the sweetest waitress! Will be back as soon as possible! ❤️❤️“

“The energy of this space is as loving and chic as Somerville itself; looking forward to becoming a regular!“

“The Burren is hands down one of our favorite spots to play in Boston! The energy is always incredible, the crowd brings the best vibes, and the atmosphere is perfect for live music. We love hosting our showcases here and can’t wait for the next one!“

“We are in Cambridge for a few nights and found Dali being a restaurant nearby. It turned out to be an unexpected surprise. Luckily we made reservation as the restaurant was packed. The menu was extensive; the service was friendly; the meal was served quickly and delicious and the atmosphere was great. We ordered 4 tapas plus an order of focaccia and a bottle of wine. All come to less than $100 not including tips. A must try in Cambridge, MA.“

“Can’t rate this place high enough! Clean, friendly service, abundance of options, but the food? The food is beyond incredible! Had the breakfast tacos and my husband had the Colombian breakfast. Omg, it was incredible!“

“Utterly delicious! Got a spicy beef bowl and it fixed me. I was meeting some friends and didn't have time to research any gluten free options in the area. Took a chance on this place and the hostess was very considerate of my dietary needs. Will definitely order again in the future!“

“Legit latte, not the hot bean water you'd get at Starbucks.

So good we went two days in a row while staying in Somerville.

The venue is very small, but the coffee packs a punch.

They do offer pastries as well!“

“Great place. Food is great and family owned! 👏👍“

“Wow! The Grapao is soooo good—this place is the jackpot. Five stars all the way“

“The food was soooo good, garlic bread instead of sub sandwich on the steak and cheese was incredible. We stored our bags here for the day, which we appreciated and were kept very safely. The real star was the food. When we come back to the Boston area, we will be sure to stop here again.“

“It was my first time there but I can tell you not my last !! It is now my favorite breakfast place .. ( can’t wait to try them for lunch ) They girl that waited on us was very friendly and you could just tell the day after Christmas that she loved her job The place was very clean , and didn’t smell like old steal oil .. And the foot well that’s another story and why I will be back !! It was fresh , I mean FRESH !! Like everything was picked from a garden out back to make my omelette.. And the home fries amazing !! Try it you’ll love ❤️ it , just like me !!“

“I finally made it to Juliet in Union Square, Somerville — and it was such a treat. The atmosphere is playful and welcoming, and the food is fresh, beautifully presented, and unlike anything else I’ve tried in the Boston area. My favorites were the salmon entrée and the gazpacho. I’ll definitely be back soon to explore more of the menu!“

“Cozy, neat little burger place. The food was delicious, and very unique. But the milkshakes, OMG out of this world. This is a unique dining experience that is definitely worth the trip!“

“First time visiting. We visit a lot of Mexican restaurants in and around the North Shore, and have our favorites. This is for sure a new favorite for us. The customer service at the location in Malden was excellent, our waitress was so polite, personable, and the right amount of attentive. The restaurant was spotless, I mean, SPOTLESS, including the restroom. The rest of the staff checked in, and the food was excellent.“

“This local place has delicious food, and has been serving it up for years. it's my go-to for their barbecue chicken (char grilled with a delicious garlicy sauce - not your usual American style barbeque!), and their beans are excellent.“

“We usually order from a different Shawarma place in Somerville, but decided to give Sam's a try. The food was very good, and in good sized portions. They were good about following requests to leave things out of the wraps. Note that they do the style with fries on the side rather than in the wrap. My only complaint is that they list some, but not all, of the ingredients on their site. So if you have things you can't eat, I definitely recommend calling them to double check. My partner can't do creamy sauces, and they listed tahini sauce but not garlic sauce in the lamb/beef shawarma, which ended up being a problem. Not a huge thing, just annoying that they make it look like everything is listed when it isn't.“

“Wonderful food as always. Very authentic and always the best! Thank you Tu y Yo!“

“BEST fried chicken ever!! so so excited for this necessary addition to the neighbourhood run by such incredible people! really delicious drinks at the bar too; i already know having this nearby is gonna be such a crazy financial liability for me lol“

“This is a great place for beer. Prices aren't cheap but I guess that's just Cambridge MA thing. My favourite beer - Buzz Factory. I haven't tried the food here but I suppose it won't be bad. They have huge space which can be a great place for socialisation and for hanging out with friends.“
