Katie TuohyOctober 24, 2016The kale and quinoa salad was a little bland. The avocado was very underripe. Loved the hummus, though. The cranberry sangria was great, too.Upvote3Downvote
Severely reduced menu now. We used to come for quick cheap bar food, now it's all "hip" specials and missing classics...

Best tater tots known to man live here. Their bar atmosphere is inviting with tables attached right to the bar. Great for large groups to hang on the weekends. Food's good too!Upvote1Downvote- Candace TaylorDecember 22, 2012The buffalo tenders are superb and so are the FISHBOWLS... Great way to have a great evening ;)

GREAT service! But, cold food, inconsistent flavor, quality and presentation of the food from Porter or Central. AND The flies, Flies, FLIES! Lower your expectations in Allston!

KILLER tator tots too.....UpvoteDownvote
