“Great food and great service! I even got gluten free chicken parm and spaghetti which was excellent! They have a wonderful food and drink menu. Our server Jess was was excellent as well. The manager Nick greeted us when we came in and found us a great table by the window. So the bottom line is, this is a great restaurant and I'm so happy we found this little gem! We will be back!“

“I have lived in the Boston-esque area for twelve years and have eaten so many good meals, but the fish tacos here are the only meal I needed to have before my upcoming move out west(ern MA). Cocktails are fun and creative, service is 13/10, the XL portions of fries that require to-go boxes are the only fries I’ve ever found to reheat well, and if you’re lucky, Steve will be tending bar. I love going at the slightly quieter times but I’ll never gatekeep the euphoria experienced by a meal here. Bonus perks: Max & Chelsea have the best senses of humor, the murals on the patio are always amazing, the beer and wine selection are vast (also the mocktails!), and the decor always feels like your favorite “I Spy” book.“

“I’m honestly glad that I waited to post my original review with a lower rating and thought through the experience a little bit more. As always, I find it a bit harder to review fusion spots. Not just any fusion either, but one that is all over the world map. It’s easy to just nitpick one dish and use it to judge everything else; but what about that is remotely fair?

For example, their Beef Rendang (a dish that I’m very familiar with - including the different regional renditions) is more like a hint towards what “real” Beef Rendang is. I don’t even need to speak on behalf of the Filipinos regarding their adobo (which I also grew up on) who are infamous to show up on public forums to criticize and say “that’s not how my grandmother makes it” (lol).

What did come to mind is the old quote that many often find negative but actually was meant to be a positive phrase (if the last part isn’t so often omitted). “Jack of all trades, master of none, though often times better than a master of one”.

That definitely applies here with their style of food. There’s a lot going on and a good portal to the true potential of each dish. Definitely give them a try! Portions are good and the food is definitely tasty!“

The naan bread is delicious and the appetizers and entrees we ordered were amazing as well bursting with so much flavor. The cocktails were crafted with precision and so much passion from the wonderful bartender. The live music is great! We definitely recommend Chulo restaurant and plan on returning again and again!“

“This was my second evening dinner at Branch Line, and it was as good as the first. Which is not easy to do, as an excellent first impression and first taste creates expectations it is hard to live up to. But they did. Location was perfect for a pre-theater dinner, as a group of us were going to a performance at the Mosesian theater, which is a 2 minute walk to a neighboring building. And the free covered parking is quite nice on a cold night. Reception and service were excellent. Food rich with flavor, and interesting. The rotisserie chicken - three varieties - is the signature dish, but all other in group ordered lamb, and were very pleased. Wines are interesting and fairly priced. Only reason I pulled pack one star on ambience was because it was a decidedly cold and windy evening, and our table was in the line of the entry door, so several at the table felt the need to bundle up a bit. No big deal. The place was packed and jumping. As it should be. Because we live two hours from Boston, I don't get there too often, but this is my top of the list go-to-when-in Boston restaurant choice.“

“The hand pulled noodles are amazing! Very authentic and fresh.

I recommend the N3. Spicy Hot Oil Seared Noodles. This was one of the best hand pulled noodles I've had. 11/10.

The Kung Pao Chicken came with either white rice or fried rice and a soup (we chose egg drop soup). There were more veggies than shrimp, and although the shrimp was good the veggies were a bit hard.

Regardless, definitely a great authentic restaurant for hand pulled noodles.“

“Kura Sushi is part of a franchise of revolving sushi quick service restaurants expanding across the Boston area.

There isn’t much seating outside and the line can get a bit long, so during rain it might be a wise idea to wait in your car. Luckily, since it's in Arsenal Yards, you can explore around and find places to go to. They have a waitlist option so its easy to get notified when your table is ready.

The food is good. Quality of the sushi is top notch and the variety is good. You can either grab it off the revolving belt, or order it straight to your table. I’d say ordering it to the table is better, since the placement of your table along the belt may result in the trays being empty by the time it arrives. There’s typically only 2 of each dish on the belt as well, so this happened consistently during the visit. They have rotating monthly specials which are hit or miss depending if you like what they are offering or not, but i'd highly recommend to at least try it.

At $3.70/dish and higher prices for the meals like ramen, it is on the pricier side for sushi, especially since most plates only come with 2 pieces. I’d recommend this for smaller parties and not when you’re really hungry, as your bill will go up quite a bit.

The prizes are cute and nice, but they also give you an option to buy the prize for the price of a dish, sorta eliminating the need to rack up the plate counter to get a prize (which is 15 plates or around $55 per prize). There are rare ones you can get only from the prize gashapon but idk if it’s really worth it unless you care about the characters a lot.“

“Went to lunch today and was impressed with the amazing customer service. The guy who took my order saved me $12 and then another worker, Miguel, went out of his way to be helpful to me as I was struggling with 3 cups and waiting for another customer to finish in the drinks station. Miguel got 3 lids and 3 straws for me and I didn't even need to ask for help! Later, he noticed I was carrying a couple of trays to the trash and once again he went out of his way to take the trays and put my leftovers in a container. He was very sweet and both interactions with Miguel put a big smile on my face. I'm always pleased to see others who enjoy their time at work and make customers feel good. My fiance and I both thanked Miguel and let him know that we appreciated his kindness. Hope Panera can give him some recognition as well :)“
