Suggestions for New American Restaurant near Kendall Square, Cambridge

Matt K. • February 17, 2012Try the Butterscotch Passion Fried Cake - Insane

Michael O. • May 30, 2012Check out Mass Appeal. A local collaboration with Night Shift, Idle Hands, Enlightenment, and Mystic. Deliciously citrusy w/ fresh seat and juice from a dozen different citrus fruits.

Matthew S. • July 9, 2017Best bistro style plates, lobster surf and turf, banhi mi french dip, oysters and raw bar. Much needed quality in Kendall.

Eric A. • January 31, 2020Not sure about mushroom toast? It lives up to its name — with heaping mushrooms!

Madalena P. • July 14, 2011Love this place - even more when it's snowing outside. Good Food + Super Cosy

The Ad Club • January 29, 2011A favorite "dive" in Cambridge. Kitchen is open late, food is great, but make sure you get there early if they have a favorite beer on tap. Best kegs get kicked early.

Justine J. • January 20, 2013Don't bother looking at the massive wine list. Just ask your server (some of the best and most knowledgeable in Boston) for a recommendation. NY strip and tagliatelle are delicious.

Philippe S. • February 6, 2013Try the lamb (if you like lamb) it's perfectly cooked and so nicely prepared.

Reserve • January 22, 2016Sure to get you in a winning spirit, BISq offers Glazed Lamb Ribs made with pomegranate glaze and chermoula (Moroccan marinade).
