    Great service, clean place. Good food, reasonable prices for the amount of food you get. Located in the building by the big kids playground.

    Turkey Club Sandwich

    Everything is perfect. Portions are very generous and filling. I usually eat half and save the rest for a bit later in the day. Everything is fresh and crisp. I'm not sure which turkey they use but it's always so yummy. The avocados are always freshly ripened to perfection and the fries are always so warm and crisp. I usually get a soda or a brisk tea which is always pretty crisp as well so they must do a great job cleaning the soda machine. Trust me I worked at a place that did not clean the soda machine so I know when it's well taken care of. The whole combo is just to perfection and so is the pricing for it since it is pretty great quality. NOT PICTURED- the pastries are very tasty as well. Pretty fresh from the looks/taste of it. I will say the pastries are pricy for a single one but they are pretty good if you're craving a little treat. The staff is very sweet and helpful. They keep the place clean and make you feel welcomed and at home whenever you come by for food great customer service thank you

    Tuna Panini and salad
    Lora B.

    Found this gem while waiting out traffic. It has a nice amount of space on the inside and additional patio seating outside in front of the tennis courts. My food looked and tasted so fresh! The bread was a perfect combination of toasty, soft, and buttery. While the tuna and salad were fresh and light with a good blend of seasoning. I did not have to wait long and the outside scenery was cool. Will definitely stop by again if ever in the area.

    The girls who work there are all really nice and the turkey club was good. Don't get the beef bowl though! Overall pretty good for an outside cafe.

    I have been here a few time years back when my son was taking tennis lessons. It's conveniently located inside the Mac Cambridge park near the tennis courts. They sell sandwiches, fries, snacks pastries and more. I stopped by for coffee earlier today after a nice walk around the park. It tasted ok... the cookies were delicious .... A great mid day snack. The cafe is clean and organized and has great customer service.

    Grilled Chicken Panini

    juust a updated review because i absolutely love this cafe! i really loove their grilled chicken pesto panini sandwich with their fries on the side. it's one of the reasons why i loove coming here! everything about the sandwich just tastes so good and the ingredients in the sandwich are fresh. yum! love adding avocado to my sandwiches. every bite was juicy and delicious! most definitely would recommend if you are a first timer! i also grabbed myself some of their pastry's on the way out. their oreo white chocolate cookie was really good! love that it was made fresh. not dry or dense. the bear claw was soo good!

    Organic chicken panini with pesto and chipotle was delicious.

    Great food and kind staff. I was running errands in the area and yelp led me here. The place was popping with families from the nearby park and tennis court. They got my order in pretty quickly. The chicken panini is huge. Tomatoes and spinach were fresh and tasty. Perfectly crisp and well seasoned fries on the side. I didn't care for the ranch but everything else was mtuuah. And I added a hot ginger tea with honey and the woman at the register rung it up as a combo. Sweet! Plus there's some courtside watching...I couldn't ask for a nicer break from my to-do list. Keep in mind that I was here on the holiday Monday. I'm sure it's crazy on the weekends.

    Went to the park and also wanted to grab a bite. Love the fact that's there's a restaurant right by the tennis courts. Don't know many parks that have that. So convenient and food was good.

But Over/Under has a distinct advantage with its cozy, sports bar feel and friendly staff. The booths are comfortable, the booze selection is ample, and there are a whole bunch of TV's for watching games. Our server, Chelsea, was a very good egg; funny and very helpful with suggestions re the menu and various drinks. She checked on us repeatedly, and made sure we had all we needed. My wife ordered a Gummy Bear Shot that was tart and sweet and very enjoyable. On the food side, the menu is filled with the greatest hits of casual, sports bar foods, but all kicked up several notches and more interesting than the usual. My wife ordered the Truffle Burger, replete with onions and mushrooms and cheese. The trappings were all very tasty, and the burger itself was packed with flavor, and came cooked to a very proper medium rare. The side of lemon-pepper fries were hand cut and crispy, though the citrusy tang wasn't my thing. A tad less successful was my Pastrami Sandwich. The meat, listed as house-made, had good flavor but was tough. The kale slaw with it also had good flavor, and the slight bitterness was a nice foil for the rich pastrami. Onion rings were excellent, and (regardless of the lemon-pepper) the better bet as a side. All in all, this is a great, comfy place with a good menu and a really welcoming staff. I'd go back in a heartbeat to try the wings and pizza, both of which looked excellent when delivered to neighboring tables.

So someone else from the kitchen came out to help with pick up window. Therefore, total time spent to go in and pick up the food was about 5mins. What came down to give 3/5 stars was the food taste. It felt like the food quality has gone down from the time when they first opened. Maybe the sauce was overpowering the meat and cheese? Maybe the meat got cold too fast? Something didn't feel right. The more I took a bite, I just wasn't satisfied. The fries were slightly on the soggy side vs crispy. Maybe I should've asked to cook longer? I don't know exactly what it was but I wasn't happy with my food overall. However, paying only $1 for large size coke was amazing! Thanks for staying open though, you guys are better than McDonald's, jack in the box, or other fast food burger restaurants (except in n out)!

    It didn't seem particularly busy when I came in here recently, but there were some things going on…read morethat were distracting the servers, so I didn't feel like we had the best service. Our chips and salsa order was never put in, BUT it was totally fine because my boyfriend and I totally should have shared a burger! We ended up STUFFED with our Hawaiian burgers- they also mixed up our orders slightly, giving him a wheat bun with cheese and me a regular bun, no cheese, when I wanted the wheat bun and no cheese. It was not a big deal and my boyfriend just ate the wheat bun and I had the regular. No big deal. But a subtle thing that added to my less-than five star rating. Drinks were okay. Happy hour had some good deals. The Hawaiian burger is still elite. Everyone was friendly and I enjoyed the food, it just seemed to be a slightly off day for the service. Worth trying again!

The one bright spot of the evening was our host, Sophia. She was welcoming, friendly, and made us feel genuinely appreciated from the moment we walked in. She provided the level of hospitality I expect from Islands. Unfortunately, everything after we were seated went downhill. We started with the spinach artichoke dip, which arrived extremely runny and lacked any real flavor. Even the "secret seasoning" couldn't improve it. It was not something I would order again. I ordered the Longboarder Burger and was equally disappointed. The bun had a strong, stale odor that made it seem as though it had absorbed the smell of a pantry shelf or had been sitting far past its prime. The smell was so off-putting that I had to take the burger apart and eat only the patty. Even then, the patty itself was underwhelming, lacking both quality and flavor. For a restaurant known for its burgers, this was unacceptable. Our server, whose name I don't recall, was absent for most of the evening. While I understand restaurants get busy, being busy shouldn't come at the expense of basic attentiveness. On more than one occasion, she appeared too rushed to fully listen to what we were saying. At one point, my partner was still in the middle of speaking when she simply walked away before he had finished his sentence. That left us feeling dismissed rather than cared for. I've always associated Islands with consistently good food and friendly service, which is why this experience was so disappointing. Sophia, the hostess, delivered excellent hospitality, but the food quality and the service we received after being seated fell well below the standard I expect from this restaurant. I hope management takes this feedback seriously, because based on this visit, I would hesitate to return.
