It was a good day for wifey and me! We took a ride into Boston to visit our youngest son. The weather was great, and it had been a while since we went out visiting, so that's exactly what we did. We decided to grab something to eat while we were there. Wifey said there aren't too many places offering real healthy choices when it comes to eating out, and this is one of her go-to spots. Our son had never tried the food before, and this was only my second visit. The atmosphere was great. Everything was clean, and it wasn't too busy at the time we visited, so ordering our food was pretty quick. We had a few questions about the menu, and every question was answered with patience, grace, and plenty of detail. I also want to give a special shout-out to the manager, Charles. I didn't catch his last name, but I definitely remembered his first because of how welcoming and attentive he was. It's always nice when management takes the time to make sure their guests are enjoying themselves, and Charles helped make our visit that much more enjoyable. Now let's get to the FOOD! I thought the serving sizes were very filling. I had the Hot Honey Chicken Bowl, which came with well-seasoned charred chicken, roasted carrots, charred broccoli with lemon, Jasper Hill mac & cheese, and some type of maple-honey-sriracha sauce on the side. And BOY, was it good! But because apparently I'm never full , I also had a crispy chicken thigh and a piece of Heirloom Blue Cornbread. The cornbread was really good, although I bet it would've been even better served warm. To wash all that down, I had not one, but TWO Ginger Mint Lemonades. And of course, you gotta have dessert! I went with a slice of Lemon Cake and finally washed everything down with a bottle of water. You know...because after all that food, I had to make at least ONE healthy decision. I looked up at my wife and son and noticed they both still had a lot of food left and were already talking about getting to-go bags. I just laughed and said, "While you two were busy talking, I was eating! We ALL said we were hungry... YA DIG!" Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves. Good atmosphere, friendly and helpful service, generous portions, and most importantly, GOOD FOOD. It made an already great day visiting our son in Boston that much better. And once again, shout-out to Charles and the rest of the staff for making us feel welcome. We'll definitely be back! read more

My friend and I were in the area looking for a fast, but nutritious meal and decided to go for Dig Inn. It's like a hot salad bowl like your chipotle, Cava or Naya. You can make your own bowl or build your own bowl. I decided to make my own. The food was absolutely delicious! I forgot to take any photos. They have lots of chicken, veggie and a salmon option. You can go super healthy and low carb or go for their rice and Mac and cheese. Everything is flavourful. You won't be disappointed. For a custom bowl with chicken I paid around $14. Which is pretty on point with other "hot salad" places. 10/10 would go again! Service was fast. They have a seating area and a bathroom. read more

We visited for business lunch. The food itself is super healthy, which can also be understood as not tasty. The portion is small and I still feel hungry after finishing entire bowl. I don't think I will visit again. read more

We happened to pass this restaurant while looking for a place to grab lunch. It wasn't busy at all but I find it surprising because the food is good, healthy and fairly priced. It also has indoor and outdoor seating. For $10 plus tax I got a meal with chicken, kale salad and roasted carrots. It was the perfect meal after days of unhealthy eating while traveling. read more

I would like to say the employees here are super nice. It's my first time here not sure how to order and through the rush Djesma helped me out from start to finish with a smile on her face! I will be back again because of her! Thank you so much. Also food is delicious! Got brown rice, kale caser, feta salad and chicken! read more

Dig Inn - Chicken thigh, kale Caesar, brown rice, feta salad w/ grains - New American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I'd never heard of this place before, but my family had been here and wanted to go. It's one of those build-your-own bowl spots, good if you're looking for something quick and on the healthier side. The place was completely empty when we walked in. I picked a few items, and overall it was just okay. Everything is already cooked and kept under heat lamps, but the food wasn't very warm. The glazed carrots were probably the best thing, they had good flavor. The BBQ pork, though, was dry and definitely needed more sauce (which they just drizzled on top). The tables were dirty, which didn't make sense since we were literally the only ones dining in. We ended up having to ask someone to clean ours because it was pretty gross. The staff just seemed kind of idle and uninterested. When I asked for a side of BBQ sauce to-go, the girl told me they didn't have cups for it even though I saw another worker filling hot sauce cups the entire time we were there. After I mentioned it, she finally gave me one. Overall, the staff wasn't friendly or welcoming, and everyone seemed like they didn't want to be there. I wouldn't come back. There's other dining establishments next door like Chipotle and Chick Fil A read more

Oh man, Dig brings back memories! I used to come here all the time whenever I would go into the city to do some shopping. I enjoy getting their build your own bowl option! What I typically order: BASE: couscous PROTEIN: charred chicken SIDES: cheesy cauliflower, jasper hill Mac & cheese, avocado (occasionally), roasted mushrooms (if they have it), sheet tray carrots, & garlic aioli on the side. It's a very filling meal & tasty! Can be a bit bland but salt does the trick. I'd rather it be lacking salt than overly salted. Definitely one of my favorite places to go to in the area that is quick & not Chipotle, Sweetgreen's, or CAVA. Everything is locally sourced & seasonal, which I thought was pretty cool. My bowls usually end up being around $14-16, depending on what I get. Great spot to hit up if you're looking for casual healthy-ish comfort food ;) read more

Dig Inn - DIG Family Dinner - Build Your Own - New American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

A fast casual spot where you can make your own grain or salad bowl. The selection isn't numerous but does its job. We enjoyed the chicken dig bowl (chicken not too dry) though the sweet potato was a bit burned and the broccoli was cut in huge pieces, and the veggie bowl with Brussels sprouts (bit spicy), broccoli and avocado hit the spot. I wasn't impressed by the freshness of the ingredients but it was fine. It was very quiet on a Saturday early afternoon, with no other customers at the time of ordering. I think this is a solid choice if you're in that area (about a half mile from the convention center). read more

WOOOOWWW! This place is amazing and DELICIOUS! Why can't they have one in Los Angeles. This place is better than Chipotle. Prob on the same level as Cava or maybe better. read more

Service: counter order establishment. You will need to clear your own table once you're done eating. Food: Lots of pre-designed bowls you can choose from off the menu. They also offer the option to build your own. The ingredients tasted great and fresh! Wish they had a location in TX! Ambiance: the restaurant was fairly clean! I wish the restaurant would use real bowls and dishes instead of disposable bowls for dine-in customers! read more

I love DIG and wish they had locations in California! It's the perfect quick lunch spot and there really isn't another chain like them. I like the Chipotle/Cava style ordering process but with protein, veggies and other healthy sides. When I lived in Boston this place was in my weekly lunchtime rotation. I typically would get the chicken, sweet potato and some sort of veggie, but I've tried most of their sides and protein options and have never disliked anything. Their mac and cheese is also really good if you're looking for a savory treat. The Boylston location is very clean with enough seating inside and on the front patio. Even if it's busy the line always moves quickly too. A bowl with 2 sides will run you around $15 so neither insanely cheap nor expensive. Definitely recommend for lunch. read more

I was looking for a place to get a healthy lunch. I saw the pictures of the kale Caesar salad in the reviews, and that sold me. My salad was really tasty! Very colorful, flavorful, and reasonably priced. I left with an empty bowl, feeling full but comfortable. As for the employees, the one who took my order didn't return my smile or hello. I told her I had a few questions because I hadn't been there before. No one was behind me in line. Her flat expression said it all. She didn't appear to want to be bothered with questions. On top of that, the music was so loud both of us had to ask the other to repeat a few times. There were 4 employees just kind of pacing behind the counter, and not one of them looked like they wanted to be there. The employee who added my protein was about as personable as the first. No response to my thank yous. No "have a good day." I'm not sure why I even left a tip, to be honest. A few times while I ate, I didn't see the staff smile at one another, chat, or otherwise interact unless they had to. They were all quiet, expressionless zombies. And it wasn't even busy. It wasn't UNTIL I saw who was looked like a supervisor walk through (tall, bald man with tattoos) that the staff all livened up, and I saw a few smiles. I'd definitely come here again for the healthy choices, but I hope the employees will be a little more friendly next time. It's not asking too much to expect the most basic of customer service skills when you're being a polite, friendly customer. read more

Dig Inn - Kale Caesar salad with salmon - New American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Pretty decent healthy lunch spot, not a big fan of their meatballs but the veggies are okay

I've considered trying DIG for a while now as I'm a huge fan of the "walk the line" kinds of places. Overall, it's not horrible, but I'd recommend going to CAVA down Boylston St instead. Very overpriced for a bowl with limited toppings and a seltzer water-- $18. Also, not many veggie toppings aside from the base selection, which I didn't know until I passed it and it was too late to go back :/ much better bang for your buck at CAVA, and a much bigger selection. I got a bowl with grilled chicken, salad, brown rice, and mac. I would've loved having more veggie options, but there is a very limited amount of toppings allowed here and I wasn't aware of that until I passed the vegetables. The bulk of the vegetables are the bases, which I didn't realize you could get and the staff didn't make that clear. There is a lot of potential here, but it's just not getting there. Flavor wise: the rice was probably the best part and cooked well. The mac was okay, I see the potential, but it honestly reminded me of cafeteria macaroni and cheese from my elementary school. The pasta wasn't great quality, but the breeding was tasty. The chicken was flavorful, but it had some fatty parts that I had to disregard. The salad was so-so, the ingredients didn't seem the freshest, and the dressing that came with it was bland. The hot honey was a good complement to the dish, though. The service was so-so. The crew was welcoming in the beginning of the line, especially when I told them I was new to DIG, but grew frustrated when I didn't know what ingredients were offered and they didn't care much to explain the process to me. Noteworthy, it was not very crowded when I came in. I also had no idea what the sauces were, and the sauce containers are tiny! All of this for $18? Plainly not worth it. read more

Dig Inn - BYO Bowl, Grilled Chicken - New American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

We found this spot out first night in Boston and proceeded to go back a couple of times during our trip. It was wonderful to find a spot with delicious food that was healthy and fresh! The bowls were filling, reasonable and the app offered deals for users. I loved the roasted carrots and grilled chicken in particular, which was juicy and flavorful with lots of herbs. Definitely on our list next time we're in Boston! read more

Food is absolutely delicious. Tons of vegan options to choose from! The seasonal sides are not allergen labelled in the restaurant, but are clearly labelled on the website. I had a bowl with tofu, kale cashew caesar, broccoli, and cannelini beans. Everything was really tasty, ESPECIALLY the kale cashew caesar salad, highly highly recommend. I also noticed as I walked out that students get 10% off by showing their ID! Missed my chance this time but will definitely take advantage of this in the future. Also love that they do seasonal sides instead of a static menu- can't wait to see what they have planned for the rest of the year! read more

Loved the variety in choices and the build your own option. Ingredients were fresh and tasty.

The food tastes like THANKSGIVING ALL YEAR ROUND ugh its so good, and the people are so sweeet and I got my food so quickly!! It's also quiet so you can eat in there without any interruption. read more

I came here thinking this would be another CAVA or Sweetgreen and this was not the case. DIG definitely puts themselves on a different pedestal with the emphasis of their custom bowl creations and menu items. It feels almost like a Whole Foods open-bar situation, which I'm not opposed to. After looking through the menu for awhile, I decided to order a custom bowl with brown rice, sweet potatoes and broccoli (which were HUGE), charred chicken, and garlic aioli. The portions were pretty good for the price of $11, and it was perfect on-the-go. My biggest complaint, and the reason I didn't rate my experience higher, was the service. We were the only customers in line but the 2-3 staff members paid us no attention for several minutes as they were attending online orders. Once we were being served, it felt like they were trying to get us out of there as soon as possible. read more

Food was a good value. Large portion, three sides were delicious. I got the black and chicken over, sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts.

I've always loved Dig Inn, but they just started doing these $10 plates. Mine had kale salad, lots of grilled chicken and roasted carrots. Can you remember the last time you paid $10 for lunch in Boston? read more

It was a healthy choice for lunch. This place feels like a cross between Chipotle and Urban Plate. The hot protein and hot vegetable options are nice. The portion size could be a little larger compared to Chipotle or Cava but overall it was a good experience. read more

Dig Inn - Chicken bowl with grilled asparagus - New American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Ingredients taste fresh and quality is good, but the flavors often fall flat and I wish there was more flexibility in choosing ingredients to add to the bowl without paying a bunch extra, similar to cava. Broccoli is much too big, always difficult to chew. Service is quick and priced are on the higher side relative to portion, but Dig will often fit into my rotation if it's convenient. read more

The portions were good, and the service was really nice. They also have a lot of good options. I was happy with my order.

If you're looking for something quick and hearty, this is your place. It's also really conveniently located, not too far from the Kendall T stop. I like that this spot is kind of like American Chipotle, with lots of healthy options. The service is pretty quick, since everything is ready to go, and it's easy to order online for pick-up as well. The restaurant itself is pretty standard for fast casual and there's a decent amount of seating available. As for the food, everything I've tried has been cooked nicely. The vegetables tend to be roasted and well-seasoned. The proteins aren't necessarily anything special, but are somehow quite delicious when mixed up with everything else in the bowl. I usually opt for a mix of grains and greens, for just the right combination. Good spot! read more

Good value for lunch. The line gets long but it goes very fast. Service is very good. Good to-go option. Huge variety and all taste delicious! read more

Dig is one of my all time favorite fast casual restaurant. The ingredients are super fresh and hearty. This is an extremely filling meal and for the price you get a good value. You can choose a base, sides, and a protein. It's very vegetable heavy which is nice. I love the sweet potato side! Everything is extremely well seasoned and flavorful. Definitely come here. Would be good for people with food intolerances or other allergies since much of it is gluten free. Employees are friendly! read more

Super good food, service, everyone is very nice. Place is warm and clean. Thanks to Dig great spot for athletes to get food

I have to say that usually, I order from Dig Inn and had the best little meal. My go to for 2 years has been the bowl with mac n cheese, carrots, broccoli, and hot honey chicken. I am saddened that it seems they have taken this option off the menu, and removed mac n cheese entirely from the menu. Guys the rice is not as good, moist, or as flavorful- please bring back the mac n cheese! read more

Sometimes this happens. I dont think I will be inspired to review a quick service meal and then I start eating and love it so much that I forget to stop and take a photo! DIG was amazing today! Charred chicken over farro with broccoli and cauliflower. Everything was expertly roasted with some char with lots of flavor and perfectly tender but not overcooked. This is hard to achieve at a fast serve "bowl" concept place but they do here! Healthy, tasty, incredible value... all for less than a bagel sandwich down the street. read more

Dig Inn - Ate every bit! - New American Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

For Yelpers who check in: their deal to get a free drink is outdated. When I asked one of the members of staff about it, the cashier was super nice about it and asked presumably their manager, but after that it was just a rude no and they didn't say anything after that. It's fine if there was no free drink, but the delivery was very offputting. We came here on a Wednesday evening for dinner and the space was decently busy with a good amount of foot traffic, but most folks didn't stay to eat so they were very in and out. We were one of two parties actually sitting and eating once we ordered so the ambiance was relatively quiet and calming in a way. We each ordered our own bowls and while it tasted fine, the portion was a little small for the price we paid. I liked the Mac n Cheese a lot and it surprisingly went fine with the rest of the pieces of my bowl. The chicken was well-seasoned and the broccoli was fine as well, albeit a little hard to eat due to how large each piece was. Overall, I enjoy Dig's food, but the portion leaves a lot to be desired and some of their staff came off very rude. I don't think I'll be returning to this location any time soon. read more

I'm in Boston for a week so I am eating out to my heart's content... Yet sadly by day 3, my stomach was missing home-cooked meals packed with veggies. I couldn't find what I wanted on the room service menu. But DIG (and Grubhub) DELIVERED!! I got the Avo Grain Bowl, and I am feeling nourished and restored. If I'm in Boston without a kitchen, I would DIG all the time! I loved the variety of ingredients and the flavor. Please keep up the great work!! Disclaimer: I normally like to eat 2-3 times at an establishment (taste 5-6 dishes) before I leave reviews but this was a one and done deal. Highly recommend. read more

Healthy and bit pricy. Nice and cool inside . Parking garage is near and has ev chargers . I order the Greek salad with seared salmon.

The staff were very polite read more

I hate this dig. the employees are always pissed off about something and seem angry to take my order. they also consistently scuff me on ingredients and leave my bowl half empty like it's saving them something. the food is generally great though which keeps me coming back but after another horrible experience where they charged me $4 extra for asking for more salad...so ridiculous. Ambiance is good too! read more

They offer a healthy variety of options, the portions are large and the sauces are good. Love the service and fresh interior. I got sweet potato, oven roasted chicken breast, salad, and rice to go. It was scrumptious. read more

hip good wholesome food, the workers are generally pretty nice and cheery too. You can make a pretty dense bowl, or a lighter one. The Mac and cheese is great and they never take it off the menu. I have liked everything I've tried from there read more

The dinning space was disgusting. Not a clean table in the place. If I would have noticed this before I ordered, I wouldn't have ordered food from here. If you can't keep the dinning space clean, what does the food prep space look like. We asked an employee to clean a space for us and she ignored us. The place wasn't busy. Steer clear from this place and pray that I don't get food poisoning. read more

Was a bit salty but appreciated the amount of chicken within the bowl and friendly service.

I chose Dig from the tantalizing pictures I found on Yelp. I was not disappointed! My delivery was through grub hub and was much quicker than I expected. I enjoyed the Salmon Kale Caesar salad. It was inventive in the spices and ingredients- radishes, kale, spring mix, heirloom grape tomatoes & a nicely spicy dressing. The roasted squash was a perfect fall side, flavored with pumpkin pie spice. I also had the roasted broccoli with lemon, yum! This was takeout that did not even remotely taste like takeout! Do try Dig! You'll dig it! read more
