Michael S.Michael Sattler: Absolutely my favorite place in Cambridge. Try *any* of their in-house sandwiches (trust them-they butcher their own meat) and you won't be disappointed. Cheese samples, happy staff-what's not to love

Jessica A.Jessica Allan Schmidt: Visit their cheese cave. It's totally worth it. Read more.

Tara S.Tara Spitzen: Best coffee in the neighborhood. Wonderful place to buy a treat for a friend-perhaps a bottle of rosé or beautifully packaged jams and chocolates. The cheese, of course, is exemplary. Try the comte!

Yu-MeiYu-Mei: Beef heart anticuchos, homemade burrata and whatever the specials are. Table seating is better than the cramped place settings at the bar at the open kitchen. Or head to the cozy bar alcove behind.

Adam S.Adam Sigel: Great place to get a glass or two of wine and try a couple small plates. We had savory vidalia onion churros last time. It’s like an onion ring only better in every way.

Adrienne P.Adrienne Petrino: Go for the Caribbean brunch!

Dan R.Dan Roberts: My favorite restaurant in Cambridge. The small plates are the best. Get the swordfish pastrami with mustard ice cream. The potato bread is addicting, we usually get upwards of three rounds ...

EaterEater: The single most essential Boston restaurant of the moment, in that here chef-owner Will Gilson is more thoroughly tackling a fresh perspective on New England cuisine than anywhere else in the world.

Sofia P.Sofia Papastamelos: If you like small plates and different cuisines this is a great place for you. Always pretty crowded and food is great. Plates will sometimes rotate depending on the season.

Senator John B.Senator John Blutarski: This ubiquitous kale salad is specifically delicious.

EaterEater: Its opening week went off impressively well, from an already-popular "secret" burger to a lively bar scene. Try it right away before the lines are perpetually out the door. Read more.
