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.”

“Excellent food great service never disappoints highly recommend”

“Amazing food!!! I haven't had food this good in so long!! Definitely my favorite halal food I've ever had. Everything was so flavorful and delicious!! The owner was extremely nice and great guy to talk to!! Can't wait to go back again!!!”

“Best and affordable vegan restaurant downtown.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Great drinks great food highly recommend”

“Bombay Canteen brilliantly channels the spirit of Mumbai’s street food scene right here in Somerville. Expect bold, fresh, vegetarian flavors, friendly service, and clever takes on classics—ideal for casual outings or adventurous food lovers. If you're craving authentic chaats, dosa, or a perfectly spiced paneer dish, this place is a must-visit.”

“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”

“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!”

“Amazing food. Had hummus shareable platter. Fresh ingredients and tasted amazing!!”

“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...”

“Amazing food and service.”

“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!”

“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.”

“Fresh Tiki bar is, by far, the BEST ice cream shop around town! The facility is always “fresh” and clean and the owners are warm and welcoming! The decor is top notch-when you walk into the door you immediately feel like you are on a tropical vacation! Highly recommend Fresh Tiki Bar if you are ever on Main Street and are in need of a sweet treat!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Great neighborhood deli! I always get something different because I like everything they make. The employees are awesome, the portions are perfect for lunch, and prices are right in line with what I would expect. My kids love grabbing snacks and picking one of the dozens of different drink options.

Love this place.”

“อาหารอร่อยมาก จานใหญ่ บริการดีเยี่ยม”

“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!”

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

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

“Great food with great service”

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

“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.”

“friendly and nice atmosphere”

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

“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 ?”

“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!”

“The best food in town and very good empanadas 🙌🏼🥰”

“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”

“A great place to grab food with friendly service. We have tried many of the dishes with no complaints about any of them.”

“Try the beef soup or pozole. Great food and service.”

“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!”

“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!”

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

“Great bartenders...good food”

“This is my family's top pick for pizza night! The pizza is aways great and they have it priced just right! If you're looking for more than just a quick bite Cafe Picasso's has been my all time favorite Italian restaurant for MANY years. Anything I order there is AMAZING and you leave with plenty of left overs for lunch the next day! They also have great specials during the week, we love going on Thurs nights for their date night special! ... and to top it off it's BYOB, you really can't get any better!! I've gladly referred many of my clients to these restaurants!”

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

“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.”

“Josh was the best!!!!! He had great customer service and greeted me with a smile that is why I love coming to this Dunkin Donuts keep him around more often he made the best latte”

“great atmosphere, coffee, food”

“I'm kind of picky, but what I bought was top notch. The chocolate chip cookies and the cupcakes I had were way above the average store. Will make this a regular stop.”

“Best Ice Cream. REAL homemade ice cream. Best quality in town. Delicious!”

“The food was great as well as the service. I highly recommend this 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.”

“Awesome time!!! Awesome service!!! Thank You VintEdge Wine!!”

“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!! 🍷😋”
