Restaurants in Somerville

“I called ahead and the hostesses helped me get my elderly Mom seated with zero wait. That meant a lot. The waiter was very attentive and the menu is second to none. I really appreciated the entire experience.”

“I have never written a review before, but thought it was absolutely necessary for Mo Grill and Sweets. I’ll start by saying all the times I’ve been here, I’ve encountered the owner. What a wonderful person he is! Always positive, and always nice. You can just tell he’s a genuine person whose main focus is to provide THE BEST and I mean THE BEST Halal food. I am a big foodie, and quality and flavor are extremely important to me, and the Chicken Shawarma platter exceeds my expectations every time. I will continue to order from here and for people who have never tried this place, go and try it! Its just exceptional.”

“Best and affordable vegan restaurant downtown.”

“un buen lugar para disfrutar un buen desayuno, un almuerzo o una cena 😍❤️😍 oh simplemente un buen café ☕”

“I had a bison Burger with all the trimmings and it was fantastic. Highly recommended. Went back again and totally disappointed. The food was not cooked. My employee got sick from the food. Not a good experience.”

“Excellent food great service never disappoints highly recommend”

“They have great bloody Mary’s. Bloody Flight was a great choice to try all types they offer. Food was excellent and came out fast. Definitely recommend and will go back”

“Great drinks great food highly recommend”

“daFilippo's is a hidden gem of a restaurant that has been my family's special occasion standard for many year's. The Northern Italian menu which changes to focus on only the freshest ingredients has a little Swiss influence and is presented with an artistic touch and personal care. Last evening I hosted sixteen business associates in the back room which has an iron gate for privacy. Filippo presented a five course meal which blew everyone away followed by him playing a few songs on the Piano. The Chicken or Cod dishes were pan seared to perfection. daFilippo's is a BYOB restaurant which I Love. My wife remarked how clean the restrooms are kept. Plenty of parking in the rear of the building. In closing, if you are looking for a family owned, unique restaurant where the owner chef touches every plate to ensure perfection then this is the place to make a reservation.”

“We ordered catering from @bombaycanteen and the food was authentic Mumbai taste. Must go place for mouthwatering Wada Pav, Paneer Methi Tikki, Ragda Pattice & much more. Would definitely recommend this place to any foodie lover like me…”

“The staff was friendly and engaging. They went above and beyond to explain the foods and options because there are just so many! They have a loyalty program for returning customers, which I love. Then the food came out and I was blown away. For the price you pay, I think the quality is phenomenal! I had the Hippie Avo Toast, the staff member suggested adding an egg and it really hit the spot. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, and it's nice to know the business is conscious about the planet. I will definitely be returning here!!!!!”

“My family and I ate here for the first time on Sunday. Very good burgers. 3 different burgers and everyone's order came out correctly. The burgers were very juicy.”

“Great very fresh sushi a small out of the way place that is a gem.. We found this place about 2 years ago and haven't gone to another sushi restaurant in our area since...”

“Kyma is the reason we drive 30 minutes for amazing authentic Greek cuisine. Our appetizer/small plate of smoked eggplant dip & lamb empanada with herb mint sauce was a wonderful start. Sea bass in tomato broth with potatoes & Aegean shrimp dish were perfectly prepared. We had to have the baklava with vanilla ice cream (no pic as we attacked it!). The ambience, service and food made for a beautiful meal!”

“Tried the USR location this morning as it's located around the corner from my office. Front staff was friendly, attentive, and helpful with assisting me to navigate options as a first time visitor. There was no line and I quickly received my to-go order. The ham, egg, and cheese croissant was delicious- fluffy and flaky, not at all greasy, and the perfect cheese pull. Can't wait to return to try desserts and coffee!”

“Great coffee shop! Everything is organic in the shop. Love their cold brew Shandy, which you can customize with their various organic syrups throughout the entire year. Also their bacon breakfast sandwich and large crumble cookies (they have four or five different kinds) are to die for. And their organic lemonade is also awesome! And the barista’s know their stuff. I also like their grab and go organic sandwiches.”

“Fantastic fresh juices and smoothies, made right in front of you! It’s awesome to have a place like this in Somerville, and the owner Dorcas was so friendly and helpful as well. The only slight downside for me was that the prices are a tad high for my liking, $6-$8 for most drinks, but it’s understandable given the product and location. They are also going to be opening a salad bar soon, and I am excited to continue to support Vita Centro in the future!”

“Absolutely in love with the taste of the fresh creamy delicious ice cream. The owner hit the jackpot with their staff, they all provide a perfect scoop and just the right amount. Would definitely recommend anyone looking for a tasty treat.

Vegetarian options: Large selection of vegetarian options

Dietary restrictions: Many non dary options

Kid-friendliness: The staff was so nice to my kids”

“Great Subs and great service! Somerville, Support your local sub shop!”

“Decided to stop into this place while walking in town and WOW. I got the thanksgiving sandwich out of pure curiosity and will not hesitate to get it again, it’s a thanksgiving meal all in one bite! Will definitely be bringing family and friends to my new spot!”

“Amazing food and service.”

“My wife and I had Sunday brunch. I had the bulgogi skirt steak with kimchi. The steak was perfectly cooked to medium/medium rare and delicious! The kimichi was good, and the spicy cucumbers were excellent. My fried egg was cooked exactly to order. My wife had the portobello sandwich which she really enjoyed. We got the Bloody flight and all four were really tasty and very interesting. It was a busy afternoon, but our service was still fantastic, and our food was out promptly. I highly recommend Project PUB!”

“Pad See Ew was absolutely amazing! Can’t wait to go back!”

“อาหารอร่อยมาก จานใหญ่ บริการดีเยี่ยม”

Beef fajitas with corn tortillas and one of their special sandwich this week Chicken, mozz, arugula, red peppers and a basil pesto”

“We walked into this place last minute on a Friday night to celebrate my birthday since another sushi place had been unable to accommodate gf. We could not have stumbled upon a better experience! Elan at the sushi bar made us a custom omakase tasting all gluten free and so delicious. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and really created a one of a kind meal while making us feel special and taken care of. We ended up with about 15 different courses i believe all fabulous and ended with a special ice cream sushi dessert. Best part was it’s been a bit since we ended and i still feel great, stuffed but i can tell it was celiac safe! We will definitely be back!”

“We came at 6 p.m. ,put our name in and were told we had a 20 min. wait. After 20 min. I went to check and was told then that there were reservations ahead of us that had to be seated. If we had been told this we wouldn't have waited. We found this very rude and unprofessional and we will not be choosing sara janes again.”

“Great homie food. Yummy burgers! Highly recommended!”

“Great bartenders...good food”

“Just spent St. Patrick's Day here. Live music, step dancers, amazing bag pipes, incredible food and a great price. They really shamrocked it this year. Our waiter was outstanding too!”

“Best place for Bowls, love the Nicola Bowl but trying the Goji Bowl😋”

“Prompt service and delicious food, and of course great Sangria.”

“Excellent Dim Sum. Friendly service 👍”

“So grateful to Café Picasso for making my birthday dinner last Friday night a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was above and beyond! It's dimly lit inside which made reading the menu a bit challenging. However, everything we did order made up for it! I highly recommend the Frittura di Calamari for an appetizer. The following dishes we ordered were spectacular! Rigatoni alla Vodka, Penne alla Grotta, Gnocchi Alessandra, Norwegian Salmon (special), Penne al Forno, Spaghetti alla Carbonara and the Pollo alla Francese! It is a BYOB establishment, luckily there is a wine and spirits store next door. My family will definitely be returning to this beautiful gem in the heart of Somerville!”

“great atmosphere, coffee, food”

“We absolutely love Prima! The staff and pizza are the best!”

“Great food with great service”

“Great staff and great food.”

“The young man was an excellent example of great customer service. He spoke English, Italian, and Spanish. He explained how words are supposed to be pronounced in Italian. He let us sample a couple flavors. You could taste how fresh and natural the ingredients used are. The rice balls were cooked to perfection ?”

“friendly and nice atmosphere”

“Entering the 1933 Room felt like stepping into a different world, with each cocktail telling its own story. The bartender’s confidence and expertise added to the unique atmosphere, making it a memorable experience for all”

“Donna at Phoenix Cafe provided exceptional service! Her kindness and warm smile made our dining experience truly special :) and her extensive knowledge on the menu helped us make the perfect choices!”

“We had our first Bubbakoo’s last night and it was better than Chipotle. And I LOVE Chipotle. I have a new favorite though. Can’t wait for next time!”

“This is a must go restaurant!! The food is amazing🤩🤩As well as the service! The volume of the music isn’t loud as other Mexican restaurants and you can actually can chat with people at your table and enjoy the food…and I loved that! Highly recommended it👍👍.”

“A group of us went for dinner on a Saturday night. The place was empty. Before we even had a chance to order, the owner came over and asked us who we were planning to vote for. Really?? He began talking politics. We were polite but he truly put a damper on our night out. I don't care what party you support, pushing your politics on customers you don't know is offensive and bad business! Reading other reviews on Google, I see he's done this to others. We won't be returning and will spread the word to avoid going there.”

“The atmosphere and food was pretty good when I brought my friends out here to eat. I can say with certainty that it blew away my clothes like in the hit anime Shokugeki no Sōma!”

“Awesome place to hang out...best bartenders around! Courtney and Nikki are AMAZING!”

“Food was excellent. Especially the Chili Paneer and Gobi Manchurian was my favorite 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻”

“Love the staff here! They are great!!”

“Always an amazing dinner at Wolfgang’s, no matter what we order!! Best lychee martinis 🍸 around, wedge salad with extra bacon and steak 🥩 with side of German potatoes 🥔 and creamed spinach - there is no better steak restaurant!! 🍷😋”

“Been going here for years. It's gotten a tad expensive but still reasonably priced at $30 for all-you-can-eat. They have a good selection of sushi/sashimi & sushi rolls, very good quality.”
