Seong H. • March 18, 2015Ramen is pretty good here. Aji-tama on the side is a good complement to ramen. Spicy miso ramen I recommend.

Saleh N. • January 26, 2018I always get the hummus tahini salad. It will never go wrong.

Brendon S. • May 13, 2018There is a surprising dearth of specialty coffee in Harvard Square, so this Blue Bottle location is a welcome addition. Enjoy one of the excellent made-to-order drinks in a bright, harmonious space.

Brian M. • May 20, 2013Good brunch. Duck confit hash features a sous vide-poached egg. Don't be afraid of its perceived undercookedness—it's been cooked to exactly the right temperature. Yum.

Pegah T. • August 8, 2018The place was not crowded in a Wednesday afternoon but I imagine it will be at nights. The staff were friendly and the wine list was good. The spaghetti was really good. I totally recommend here.

Eric A. • May 22, 2023The Thai Sausage and Shrimp Lumpia is basically an egg roll with unique ingredients and dipping sauces — fantastic!
