Thi Wernau: Chocolate cupcakes with the crunchy round toppings are excellent. Had a chocolate vegan one at farnsworth locale which was equally as good. Be prepared to take it to go because seating is limited!!
Jason Leese: I love this place. They just messed up my to-go tofu sandwich by giving me tuna. They insited on delivering me a new sandwich. In 10 minutes I had my tofu sandwich and a vegan cupcake :)
TKGO: This bakery's vegan options are just as delicious as the egg-and-milk variety. Go for the chocolate chip cookie or the vegan chocolate cupcake!

Jeffrey Currier: Tasty bites, preserved lemon, vegan pasta, chickpea pancakes, all served by a cute waiter named Travis. What more could one ask for? Bella!
Angela: Pork shoulder. Beef carpaccio. Spaghetti. Mmm.
Paul: F'ing amazeballs! Cicchetti (tapas like) dishes are to die for. Highly recommend baby octopus, polpette, mozarella in carrozza and baccala mantecato.

Jeffrey Currier: Special vegan pasta arrabiata spicey and yummy..
Ben j: Wine by the glass list is great, cocktails creative and tasty with an Italian flair. Crudo is beautiful and taste even better. Open space with bar, bar tables, then seated dining area.
BC O: Food was good. The family sharing tasting menu was on point but wasn’t a fan of the wine pairings that went with it.

Louisa Rigali: The Alsatian pizza was unbelievable, and I also had an arugula salad, which was a perfect starter. The malt chip ice cream was unique and delicious!
Paull Young: Before you eat the Alsatian pizza, Google Alsatian
Nicholas Adam Owens: The "Alsatian" + Sauvignon Blanc = :O

Indian Restaurant · South End · 41 tips and reviews
Tainah M.: Probably the best Indian buffet I've tried in the Boston area so far. Go on weekends, when they have a greater variety of dishes available (including samosas)!
Gifted Boston: If I were on a deserted island... Mela would be the one restaurant I needed. Chicken tikka masala, onion naan and a mango lassi. Copper colored walls & glitter table tops. This is my happy place.
Susan Hunt Stevens: Love the lunch buffet

Phil Carlson: Great jazz music. Try the Honey Highball.
Boston.com: If you like your brunch with a jazzy twist, hoof it to this South End hot spot for eats and music. Snack on decadent poutine — cheese fries smothered in gravy and topped with eggs ($14). Read more.
Bravo: So cool, so hip, so packed…every night. But the food is good and groovy musical acts make the too-cool-for school service. -Tania Peterson, Top Chef Just Desserts
