Halfway back from our sojourn to the amazing Museum of Fine Arts today was this delicious Thai…read morerestaurant that called our names for lunch. Nicely air conditioned and comfortable inside, we were seated at a small 4-person in the front room. I think that's where lunch is hosted, whereas further inside is a fancier dinner area. We decided to order 4 dishes family style: 1. Pepper garlic with beef, 2. Chili basil with tofu, 3. Yellow curry with veggies, and 4. Pad see ewe noodles with chicken. Our server was kind and attentive, constantly refilling our chilled water which was so refreshing after walking. Our meal was scrumptious and satisfying. We ate every last morsel. They were mildly spicy, in a pleasant way. The tofu was particularly tasty--I wish I knew the recipe! Only a minor critique is that the music was all terrible covers of popular music, it made us laugh. Highly recommend!

Noodles were chewy, quite enjoyed the meal. My friend got the pad kee mao with chicken. They didn't give me a bit more veggies, and the amount of veggies I had looked less than my friend's plate. I think they're not having very good portion control? $18.50 post-tax, decent portions.

TAKEOUT review * My…read moredaughter's friend recommended this place. Easy to order online. Keep in mind they are tapas so the quantity is smaller than an entree. There were 6 of us and we ordered 6 things, and fortunately we weren't ravenously hungry because otherwise we might've needed at least 3 more. We ordered mushroom salad, pad paa (a scrumptious concoction of veggies in sauce that comes with jasmine rice), crab fried rice, roasted brussel sprouts, grilled pork cheek, chicken ka praw. The order was ready for pickup within 30 minutes (which is what it predicted online). The food was freshly made, hot, ready to go at 8 p.m. and the staff were friendly and helpful. It looked like the customers there were having a fun time. We all really enjoyed every bite, particularly the pad paa with jasmine rice. It ended up being enough food for us as well.

Bar Vlaha had some really good parts and a few misses for me. The potatoes had no flavor, so that…read morewas the weakest dish of what I tried. The beef cheek, on the other hand, had a mild but good taste, and the meat was very, very tender. The 6-dip spread was a fun experience and probably one of the more memorable things to order if you are with other people. The feta was definitely the best dip by far, while the others were okay. One thing to keep in mind is that you have to order bread separately, which is worth knowing before you commit to the dips. Overall, I still enjoyed the meal, but it felt a little mixed. There are some dishes I would gladly get again, and others I would skip.

Appetizers were pretty good, the risotto was rich and creamy and the French onion soup was great. My friend got the the roasted duck breast that was asked as medium and came out rare. And the beef shoulder was a little overwhelming with the red wine sauce. After, we were serviced dessert menus even though I told them we had a cake. They served us the cake and were not given any utensils. We were then told that there was a $20 cake fee for the restaurant. I asked why I wasn't told this when I dropped off or even before serving the cake and the hostess ignored me and didn't say anything. After spending +$300 for an average meal and told there was a cake fee AFTER the cake was served-- I am very disappointed. We wanted to try and go to somewhere local and support local businesses, but save your money and go elsewhere. There are plenty of other wonderful restaurants in the area!

Cute small coffee shop with fresh pastries, say less!…read more Popped into this coffee shop recommended and visited frequently by my cousin, and I can see why! It was a breeze getting in and placing an order mid morning but there wasn't any seating available. We were on the move for the day so didn't stop us! Got a strawberry matcha and it was delicious. The perfect balance to enjoy a sweet but tart drink! It can be hit or miss with matcha and I was a hit. Went back twice while visiting this past weekend!

Burger may have been one of the best I have had in Boston. Our server was so nice and accommodating. Everything we ordered we liked. Not a single bad bite. I'm not a sweets person but the sticky toffee pudding was great. This is a really large restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. We came at 6:15 on a Friday night and after about 45 minutes it started to get pretty full. They take online reservations. 10/10. Will be coming back to try more of the menu items which they update frequently.

Literally my only issue is that the cakes and frappes are too sweet. They are also generally very good at accommodating allergies, as they have full ingredient lists for almost their entire menu (every menu item can be made milk and egg free), including cross-contamination notes. They also have many customers with allergies due to their vegan-friendly nature, so are very willing to answer questions.

If you have ever had a veggie burger and didn't like it, it was because you didn't eat here…read more To be honest there aren't a lot of vegetarian dishes that taste good for me, but everything they have here has been amazing. I say this because I have been here multiple times and everything I order or the people who are with me order, has always been amazing. Sometimes they have outdoor seating and we always sit outside if seating there is available, but this time they hadn't setup the outside yet, but they had plenty of seating for 2 inside. Another thing I mention on all my reviews is if a restaurant serves you water when you sit without asking. Well here they do and they were following our glasses as we were sitting. This is definitely a place to go to even if you aren't vegetarian.. actually especially if you aren't so you can find out how good some vegetarian dishes can be. The only downside for me is that I don't live in Cambridge or near by, but there are plenty of cheap parking garages near the restaurant and my favorite Korean grocery store is there.

It is a small, lovely place with friendly staff and quick service. The menu has so many good options it was hard to choose. The vegan calamari appetizer and tamarind mocktail caught my eye and I knew we had to have them. Both were fantastic. And the calamari was GF! Yay! We moved on to an orange asparagus salad and the pistachio crusted tofu on corn cakes. The salad was good, the tofu and corn cakes were amazing. They had vegan GF carrot cake, which you almost never find. I love carrot cake so we got a slice to go. I wish there was one of these near us. Great experience and great food. Carrot cake was on point! Perfectly moist and flavorful. We enjoyed it immensely.

There wasnt a ton of the vegan ricotta or soy mozzarella in it which is good because those usually bring a lot of salt. This lasagne was perfectly balanced. The portion size was huge too. The sesame crusted seitan strips were also very good. The service was not the best. Took forever to get water and menus and then seemed to take an additional forever for them to take our order. We were there for a full 90 minutes and the restaurant was not busy. Also, the water, juices and soft drinks did not have ice. One of our party stated it may have been because they are Ayurvedic... and we never asked so not sure the real story.

I'm so glad Uyghur cuisine has made its way to Boston…read more I was first introduced to it years ago at Silk Road in Cambridge, and I've been hoping more Uyghur restaurants would open ever since. Jahunger truly delivers. The restaurant immediately sets the mood. Candlelight, the scent of incense, traditional instruments on the walls, and pothos plants growing from mounted glass jars all make the space feel warm and inviting. One warning: unless you arrive around 6 p.m. or earlier, expect a wait. (It's popular.) Oh, and the food is worth it. The leek and egg dumplings tasted homemade in the best way: slightly rustic, fresh, and delicious. The hand-pulled noodles are the stars. Every noodle dish we ordered had the perfect chewy texture. My favorite was the Laghman noodles, though the Jahunger noodles were a close second with their rich spices and satisfying heat. The mee fen and stir-fried green beans both packed a respectable kick and leaned a little salty, but not enough to keep me from happily polishing them off. Don't forget the tea! It's beautiful to look at, filled with all sorts of ingredients (Chinese jujubes!), and only lightly sweet, which I appreciated. Then came the showstopping honey cake. The cake itself was fluffy, while the filling had a firmer, almost sticky texture with deep caramelized flavors that reminded me of burnt caramel in the best possible way. Paired with what tasted like coffee ice cream, it was the perfect ending to the meal. Jahunger is one of those restaurants that makes you want to come back before you've even paid the bill. I'm so glad Jahunger made it to Cambridge; the Boston food scene is richer because it's here.

We came in and the restaurant was filled with younger people who were hanging out. To start off we ordered lamb dumplings and scallion pancakes. I was familiar with both of these appetizers and they were the same as anywhere else. To eat, we ordered chicken stew. The waitress told us that one stew was spicy and the other was non spicy. We decided to order the non-spicy one since others were not big fans of spice. When we received the food it was very spicy. It was hard to eat and we did not enjoy it. The waitress came back and thought we wanted the spicy chicken stew which was incorrect. She apologized and wanted to switch it. At this point we were running late so it didn't matter. We just packed it and gave it to our family member who likes spice. This place was okay. I will have to come back here and give it another chance.
