Crumbs and liquids on them. I saw a big ant crawling on the counter top by the register. So, instead of sitting at a table I had to sit on a cushioned chair and eat my food over a cushioned stool. The only highlight of this place is that they were playing the World Cup. I was only here because I had somewhere to be close to this place. Parking is hard to find also. I had to park all the way over by Shin Dig. That's all I can say about it. :-/ The girl at the register was nice.

During my recent visit, I was struck by how much North Mass Boulder is a community space. It's not…read morejust a rock climbing or yoga gym but a gathering space. And Top Out Cafe is a big part of that. I came to the cafe for a co-working afternoon with some of my colleagues. We were able to grab a small conference room and work while we enjoyed our drinks and lunch. I started with a dirty chai, which hit the spot. And then I got the Chicken Pesto Panini, made with tomato, spinach, avocado and mozzarella cheese, served on rosemary focaccia bread. I got it without the onion. This sandwich was large, and I can see it being a great compliment to a workout. The cafe area seemed packed on the Friday afternoon I visited. It looks like a working space as much as a gym cafe. The service here was bright and friendly. And if I ever go back, I'm definitely going to try some of their smoothie bowls or salads. I might even rock climb (why not!).

However, you'd be remiss if you didn't make a stop in at some point. They primarily have table service but also a small bar "inside" - when the weather is nice, they open up the garage doors to make the entire establishment be outdoors. The staff that we encountered were all very friendly. Food is fantastic here, we ordered from the Devour menu back in August and got the burger and pulled pork sandwich with fries. They bring your food out on a giant sheet of butcher paper, so you're more than welcome to make a mess at the table! Everything was scrumptious, and the fries home as leftovers are as delicious as when you get them fresh. Perhaps that's why they're called the Best Fries in the World! I'm sure if a good sports game is on TV, you'll find me here soon enough!

I thought about…read moregetting a beer so our server gave me a sample of the Upland Brewing's Petal to the kettle sour, it was good but I decided to go with a cocktail instead. I went with a Malibu and ginger ale, and it was served in this cute glass, I loved it! We were all so hungry, so we started out with a large order of fries, and they are a standout. They disappeared fast, came served on paper, and were crispy, hot, and delicious. We ordered the 2 10-piece wings (the biggest order available), including one batch cooked extra crispy. The wings were good, and I especially enjoyed the Fat Dan's hot BBQ sauce over the regular BBQ. I really liked the extra crispy wings. My boys also wanted burgers. One ordered the Wake N Bake Burger and the other got the Fat Dan's Burger. Both looked tasty, and neither of them complained. The ambiance strikes a nice balance between sports bar and family friendly restaurant. There is seating both inside and outside, and when the weather is nice, they open the large doors to create an open-air feel. That's where we sat, and I enjoyed it. Service was quick and efficient, which was much appreciated since my family arrived hungry. This is a solid spot for burgers, wings, and fries.

Love Handle is in the best neighborhood right on Mass Ave! It's super close to amazing shopping,…read moreand the vibe inside is vintage diner with an artsy twist. The food just needed a little fine-tuning to really shine. The catfish seemed to have a beer-battered coating that felt a little soft and held onto some extra moisture instead of having that classic light crunch. I would love a bit more flavor baked right into the waffle and biscuit dough--though the gravy flavor was definitely a win! Also, the grits lean heavy into jalapeno notes rather than a creamy, cheesy base. It's such a cute venue with great energy, and a few little kitchen adjustments could make it amazing!

My husband and I had never been here before and the lady at the counter was less than friendly. She did tell us the menu was on the other wall. My husband got a Diet Coke that came in a can and we both got a classic plate minus the toast. 2 eggs, 2 sausage patties... nothing special including the presentation. The price for each plate was $18 plus a $2 can of coke and a tip they didn't deserve brought our total to a little over $40. The eggs were flavorless and literally had no seasoning. I did appreciate that the sausage patties weren't greasy. That was about the only good thing. The decor looked like they took whatever thrift stores couldn't sell with no particular theme. Funny enough, we went out for breakfast a few days later to a DIFFERENT PLACE and for the SAME PRICE got way more food, better quality food, better presentation, full table service, friendly service, great atmosphere, and an overall wonderful experience. Overall, I would not recommend this place. We left feeling like we got ripped off and I could have made the same thing better at home.

Yes, it was a 90 degree day in July, but it sounded so good. Personally, this may be one of the best vegetable soups I've ever had. The sandwich is so good, especially paired with the ranch spread on it. The gentleman taking my order took the time to explain the menu to me, shared some favorites, and was genuinely super kind! As I sat inside to eat my lunch, there were tons of people popping in and out. It seems to be a local favorite!

I love ordering something like this that I wouldn't be able to recreate at home. The Green Chili Falafel was another great pick. Shared with my sister and it was plenty of food. And once again YOU MUST TRY THEIR FRIES! The Daisy cocktail was simple, like a margarita, but had great flavor - lots of lime! I was curious about the Windsor sling since it has so many strange ingredients but was very yummy - nice little mezcal drink with a slight spice. Big fan of Daisy Bar and look forward to seeing what new things they come up with to try in the future!

I also tried the special Tayaki, which was a good sweet counterpoint! Absolutely delicious! I'm still thinking about these sandwiches a week later!

The vibe was upbeat and vibrant on the patio. In contrast, the inside was somewhat dark and moody. The drink menu consisted of lots of local brews, some wine (none were sweet), and mixed drinks. I opted for an Old Fashioned ($10) and my friend had a Lime Margarita ($10). The drinks were the perfect accompaniment to the bits and bites we were enjoying over at the smokehouse.

It a small corner bagel shop with no indoor seating, but 4 picnic style tables outside. The greeter was very nice and I ordered my Lox bagel and an Americano. The bagel wasn't toasted (maybe I should have asked for that) but had cucumber, dill, pickled red onions, capers, and cream cheese. Good, but toasted would have moved this rating to 5 stars. They should ask when you order, it would help. In any case, I recommend Sidedoor Bagel and would definitely try again when staying downtown. Cheers!

Food: Don't let the "dive bar" label fool you, the food here punches way above its weight. Everything comes out fresh and flavorful, and the prices are refreshingly reasonable. It's the kind of menu you can order off of without checking your bank account first. Atmosphere: This is where Ralph's really shines. It's got that perfect low-key, no-pretense vibe; dim lighting, good music at a volume where you can still hear your friends, and a crowd that's there to relax rather than show off. Whether you're grabbing a quiet drink solo or bringing a group, it just works. Bottom line: Great service, great food, great vibe. Ralph's Great Divide is a certified Indy gem. Highly recommend.

Breaded Pork Tenderloin (an Indiana classic): This was the star of the show. It's massive and delicious. I paired mine with the Hot Pot Pig, and dipping part of the tenderloin into it was a game changer. I saw some online reviews calling it "life changing"--while I wouldn't go quite that far, it's easily one of the better ones I've had. Just a heads up: it's a heavy meal. You probably shouldn't eat more than one of these a month if you value your heart health! Spicy Buffalo Blue Cheese Chips: These were okay, but honestly not worth it. I'd skip these next time and save the room for something else. The Pie: I didn't have any room left to try a slice, but they looked fantastic behind the counter. Service & Atmosphere The staff here are super friendly and welcoming. Even though it's a modest setup, the service was incredibly fast, and we had our food in no time. It wasn't very busy when we stopped by, which made for a nice, quiet lunch. The Verdict: A great, no-frills spot for a massive tenderloin. Just dress warmly if you're heading there in the winter!
