    Pao
    Arthur T.

    Pit stop here for a quick bite and coffee. Super packed so we ended up doing take out. Street parking only. Coffee was good and had the traditional pao as a snack.

    Insane! So good and fairly priced. $3 for the best latte I've had in a while! Most of the menu is gluten free which was awesome. 11/10

    Ah bom dough what a CUTE cafe! We came here after taking a yoga class down the street to grab a bite all together and it was such a great spot for a small group gathering. Even though it was clearly bustling we were able to find space - it didn't feel crowded - and the staff when beyond to help us make sure all allergies were recognized and the food was adjusted properly. Shout out to consistently fantastic service and a great location! We had 2 of the eggs and greens, the potatoes were fantastic and one of the eggs were switched out for poached eggs since the main batch is mixed with cream. We tried the gluten free mochi which was DIVINE. Totally recommend coming in to share some happy space with great vibes.

    If you love pão de queijo, make it a point to visit this spot in Cambridge. It's a spacious cafe with plenty of space to sit and enjoy a long meal. Or you can grab coffee and pão de queijo to go. Assuming that the pão de queijo would be small, we ordered two traditional and four with guava to feed myself and my nine-year-old daughter. Little did we know that they are huge with so much guava that it spills out with most bites. We left very full and very satisfied. They are chewy and delicious! And the guava inside is mouth watering.

    Came on a weekend and the place was packed. It was much bigger than I was expecting inside but we couldn't find a seat in the 30 min we were there so decided to take our food to go. I tried the guava matcha and pan de queijo and both were solid. The matcha was strong but too sweet, even at the "less sweet" level. The cheesy bread was flavorful but very salty and way too small for the price of $4. Overall it's a solid place that I'll return to for drinks but I will def try to come at a less busy time.

    I LOVE bōm dough and would be here all the time if I could. This is an adorable cafe/brunch spot with a good amount of seating and delicious, well-priced food and coffee options. This is a great spot to take a friend to brunch, or to work during the weekdays (they have a no computer policy on the weekends, likely due to the demand). Their pao de queijo is the star of the show! You can either get it as its own pastry or use it as your bread in one of their sandwiches. I've gotten several pao breakfast sandwiches throughout my visits and they come with tasty sauces on the side that enhance the experience. Their breakfast gnocchi is also unique, yummy, and big enough to take leftovers home. I've tried their mochi waffles, which are chewy and soft at the same time. Their flavored lattes are also delicious--most recently, I got the raspberry mocha latte. This place can get busy on the weekends but tables tend to turn relatively quickly. It's less busy during the week, so sometimes I come here for a coffee and a snack and to work. I love the green decor and the airy vibe. I feel like they could also charge much more but I'm always pleased at how fairly priced their food is (compared to some other brunch spots).

    dulce de leche pao de queijo
    Mel N.

    I order some takeout and was pleasantly surprised! I got the good pesto brisket sandwich with pao de quejio dough, dulce de leche filled pao de quejio, raspberry mocha latte, and iced guava matcha latte. Wasn't sure what to expect, but the sandwich was delicious! I added habanero fig mayo and it made everything so much better. My only gripe was it was pretty greasy but nonetheless flavorful. The dulce de leche pao de quejio was also the perfect marriage of salty and sweet. Lots of dulce de leche was inside and my belly was content. The drinks however, were not anything special. I wouldn't get them again. I recommend the sandwiches and the dulce de leche pao de quejio!

    doce de leite pao de queijo
    Marni M.

    My friend was excited to share this place with us. Turns out I had been here before for a prior Yelp Elite event years ago. Having only tried their traditional pao de queijo, I was excited to be back again! We got a variety of items including their smoked salted caramel latte iced w/ traditional pao de queijo & doce de leite pao de queijo, crack chicken sandwich, and breakfast gnocchi. We thoroughly enjoyed their delicious drinks in the comfortable and quiet environment. The name crack chicken was fitting since it was so addicting to eat. The gnocchi was also delicious drowning in the rich tomato soup/sauce. Overall, we had a great experience. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I'm very happy to have come back again and be more than satisfied with my visit. Looking forward to the opportunity coming again!

    Yummy pao de quejio, but the value is questionable. By 1:00 pm on a Monday, they were out of several key ingredients that they use on their sandwiches including bacon and mozzarella. Service was also disorganized and rushed. Matcha latte with oat milk was pretty good.

    brigadeiro cookie
    Hallie L.

    The strawberry matcha was AMAZING. I would definitely come back just for the matcha, the strawberry flavor was very strong. The cookie was pretty good, a little pricy but the cookie itself is bigggg. Fun to get but probably wouldn't again just because outside of the novelty of this giant cookie with chocolate, it tasted like a standard cakey chocolate chip cookie with more chocolate. The bacon benedict was pretty good, the pao de queijo was very enjoyable. However, outside the pao de queijo, the rest of the meal was just decent, nothing too special.

    Sunny stack
    Amy X.

    Love love love! I'd been wanting for a long time to come for pao de queijo - Brazilian chewy cheese bread. My first visit did not disappoint! The Sunny Stack was impressively loaded with scrambled egg and tons of avocado/guacamole on the side, and the (BBQ-based) happy sauce on the side indeed made me very happy. Warning: it gets very messy once you add the two to the already full sandwich! The pao de queijo bun was even better (chewier and cheesier) than expected. It was very reasonably priced too. The guava pao de queijo was filled with lots of delicious guava jam. I had leftovers for dinner. The bread texture was different but still enjoyable. The entire sandwich smushed down a lot over the few hours, which actually made it less messy to eat. They have a sign saying no computers allowed on weekends. I saw a mix of people on laptops, people chatting, and people just focused on eating. Spacious with plenty of seating. Service was great too!

    Such a cute lil cafe! Fresh and bright atmosphere and food. I just wish the portions and water cups are bigger!!! Super busy on the weekends so would be smart to ask a friend to grab a table while you stand in line. Definitely a great place to catch up with friends. I want to come back to try their guava matcha latte!

    Pao de quejo
    Abigail C.

    Came for the pao de quejo and definitely was not disappointed. I ordered a 4 pack and ate it over a couple of days- the bread warms well in a toaster oven and maintained its chewiness.

    Love their matcha and cheese and garlic bread. It's usually packed so seats are hard to find! No laptop policy enforced on the weekend.

    Sneaked our way into this place right before close since we didn't make dinner reservations nor…read morewanted to wait longer than an hour. However per my cousin, it was absolutely a gamble getting into Monica's due to its popularity. It's your typical Italian deli and stocked with many of yummy bites. I couldn't pass up the burrata special, holy cow, was this fresh. Every bite I wanted more. The balsamic had a lovely twang to it. Super fresh produce and fresh bread!! Can't beat it!

    I came here on recommendation from family as a great North End deli and not-to-be-missed...! There…read morewas a line and it took awhile to get inside and a bit longer to place my order (first timer mistake; skip down to the PRO-TIP if dining here today...!) The servers inside are working their tails off...! Their work pace is not the issue, it's the establishment's popularity...! Looks very authentic inside like a restaurant / deli you might find in Firenze. I decided to order the Italian Sub as they make it; no changes. In hindsight, I should've changed a few things I kind of knew I wouldn't like, but wanted to roll with their take on the classic sub. The bread was very fresh and the meats abundant and plentiful! I was not a fan of the balsamic, nor the "hots" (not "hot" so-to-speak, but kind of a marinated sweet pepper, nor am a fan of sweet pickles. Condiments on their sandwich...? Mayonnaise (none), mustard (none). I believe it's only balsamic and EVIO. I ate a half sandwich and was quite full. I honestly threw the other half out. Wasn't my jam. If you'd like to try it, you can have the full summertime experience and wait in the long line in the roasting sun with no apparent breeze or.... PRO-TIP: Place an order online for pick-up; walk up, go in the second door (to the left) straight to the counter where you pay and pick up your sandwich which will be ready by the time you get there. I will try this place again; I'm just modifying the sandwich to a version I know I'll love. Side note: The chip selection had some crazy flavors I've never seen before such as "Fried Egg"
