Mike Strocko: Food & Wine recommends the bacon double cheeseburger: two four-ounce beef patties with white American cheese, smoked bacon, and Russian dressing in a white bun.
Irina: The salad 'rare beef' (10$) was amazing, a lot of flavour, big portion, on a spicy side.
Senator John Blutarski: Currently serving a frisee & warm beet salad with goat cheese & bacon that will explode your mouth with delight. Eat!

Sandwich Spot · Mid-Cambridge · 58 tips and reviews
Adam Sigel: Phenomenal breakfast sandwiches named after local streets, and tasty pastries. Big space to come hang or get some work done.
Stephen Bruso: Quiet atmosphere; almost feels like a library. Sandwiches are great, they really pile on the meat.
Alli Frymoyer: Love the food, but be warned: this place is a CLUSTER at lunch.

Ted MacLean: Try the Rachael - turkey, swiss, russian dressing and sauerkraut. Melts in your mouth. For dessert, black and white macaroon! Read more.
M L: It is a great place for a Sunday brunch. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, specially during summer. Their freshly pressed orange juice is a plus!
Scott S: Break the fast here!

Chrissy Makkas: Get the cheese fondu appetizer. Then keep it at the table and dip bits of your entree in it (bonus points if you have fries, which are also awesome).
Isabel: Great brunch food. The chicken and waffles is very worth eating a whole chicken!
Suzanne Wenz: If you're feeling like dessert, get the chocolate fondue for two. AWESOME!

Angie: Everything is so fresh & delicious. Crab toast, arancini, meatballs, & NY strip=amazing! The cocktails are really strong, too. Our server was great. A+.
Jeff Byrnes: Cocktail program is offbeat, well done, and quite fun. Go for the Ludlow for something truly different.
Michael Troiano: Very good Italian, beyond the usual red sauce joint fare, but below the fussy highbrow stuff. The specials really were special - cocktails and pasta - and our large group felt like welcome guests.

Helen Huppuch: The burgers are excellent and the rosemary truffle fries are super delicious. Not a fan of the Grafton Caesar Salad, Sriracha Wings or their Brussels Sprouts, though.
Mariana Tavares: The buttermilk pancakes are a great option for a brunch!
Sam Shredder: Hands down, try an order of truffle fries. They are simply ah-mazing!
