The Paris Creperie

★★★★☆ 3.9 (956) • $$

"This crepe was FANTASTIC. I've known about this place for a while, but never had gone in until yesterday. I can not wait to go back. I ordered the Nutella crepe with strawberries and it was amazing. Warm, melted chocolate, and yet it wasn't crazy messy or anything. We ordered to go so it was perfectly wrapped as a handheld item. It's pretty small inside so we ordered our crepes to go (thinking there were no open seats) but the 4-5 tables free up pretty quickly since people are really only sitting to eat and drink their drink before heading out. Next time I'm ordering "for here" to get the plate with the chocolate drizzled all over!"

"yummy ice cream, lots of options for sizes, clearly displayed prices, good customer service- all 5 stars from me(this review is based on my experience a few years ago before I moved away and back.. I'm going to have to revisit ASAP to see if anythings changed!"

Lee's Burger Place

★★★★☆ 4.3 (377)

"Best burger in Boston hands down! Whenever I am craving a giant, the size of my face, mouth watering burger, it has to be a burger from Lee's burgers! This location is not that big but it has a few tables and stools to dine in. It's an order at the counter and if you dine in they bring you your food to the table. My bf and I were craving juicy burgers so we drove up to Lee's. It was busy Saturday night, they had a lot of pick up and orders to go but we found a table to sit and dine in.I ordered the usual which is the two patty Lee's burger and my bf got their other signature burger.The fries came out first and they were perfect! They were super crispy and thick just how I like them.Our burgers came out next and they came out nice and hot! My Lee's burger was neatly wrapped up to keep it together because it was fully loaded! My burger was packed with bacon,peppers, grilled onions, fried egg and french fries and it was amazing! It was challenging to keep it together as I enjoyed every bite but I managed to devour it just fine. It really hit the spot!"

Coco Leaf

★★★★★ 4.5 (304) • $$

"Wow, Coco Leaf has changed a lot, since the last time I've seen them. The newest installations they have are the cute Instagram-esque backdrop with neon lights and the Buddha corner with comfy chairs. -- Totally the vibe.They serve the same amazing food fare that I love and enjoy. I always get the spicy garlic popcorn chicken and sweet potato fries. Both are delicious and not fatty. Their dipping sauces (I believe it's ketchup mayo) are delicious and a must have!"

Cocobeet

★★★★★ 4.5 (275) • $$

"I'm a sucker for a good smoothie bowl, and Cocobeet has a GOOD smoothie bowl. Not only is their establishment conveniently located within walking distance of my hotel in Boston, their food options are entirely plant based and without processed sugar, which is right up my alley. Upon entering the gentleman manning front of house greeted me warmly and offered to answer any questions. I ordered the Blue Oasis bowl - peach, banana pineapple, algae, maple and coconut base topped with banana, strawberries, blueberries, toasted coconut flakes, and date almond crumble. This. Is. Glorious - delightfully fruity with excellent textural components. The following morning I enthusiastically devoured the vanilla berry chia pudding, a beautiful combination of cashews, dates, chia seeds, and citrus topped with a berry compote. My only two pieces of constructive criticism:1. Price. After tip I paid $17.50 for the smoothie bowl alone, which is steep for an on-the-go breakfast.2. Nutrition information: I wish they had it. They explained that since they often tweak and adjust recipes it's difficult to maintain accurate nutrition information, which is understandable, but if you don't reach for the moon you'll never get anything.Summary: Cocobeet = very yes."

"**Updated review**I came back because I believed in the beignets. They were bomb . The place was very clean, with a cute fig tree at the entrance. The service was EXCELLENT. Everyone was nice, especially the cook who made the order. I also tried the classic burger, which wasn't bad. Fries was still heavy with grease, but you know I ate them anyways and it was good."

NU Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.2 (245) • $$

"Menu is full of healthy, yet tasty options! NU Kitchen has a bunch of fresh smoothies, coffees, sandwiches, bowls and salads. But my favorite thing to get is the Acai bowl! Acai bowls here are legit and so good! I love how NU Kitchen is loaded with toppings so there is almost 1:1 ratio of topping to acai which never happens! I've tried the Oahu and Maui; both were good but I prefer the Oahu more. The cocoa nibs are bomb and plentiful. The acai is also creamy from the oat milk! Short rib torta was delicious. The short rib is super tender with great flavor, crunch from the light crunch of the bread, and slight heat from the peppers. The egg and avocado are a nice extra touch that goes together so well.Short Rib banh mi was an interesting take on banh mi, but quite pricey for the size and compared to a traditional banh mi. Prefer the torta more."

Pure Cold Press

★★★★☆ 3.6 (229) • $$

"Exceptionally delicious vegetarian and vegan food here! I tried the buffalo "chicken" Caesar wrap at the owner's recommendation and LOVED IT! Lots of spice, creamy dressing, and crunch from the croutons. The interior is very pretty too, with plenty of house plants and a relaxed environment staffed by helpful and hard-working employees who get you your food fast. For me, this place is right up there with Veggie Galaxy. It's a real hidden jem for Coolidge Corner and I'll be back for sure."

Dolce Vita Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.4 (140) • $

"Really cute neighborhood place with nice staff and good food. Stopped in for a bacon egg and cheese on an everything bagel - which was very good - and coffee. The staff is super friendly, including a woman who I believe is the owner. Prices are decent, $18 for two bacon egg and cheeses and two medium coffees (one hot and one iced). The feel of a neighborhood place where the staff would get to know you is a definite part of the appeal, in addition to good food. I would like to return and try some of the other food, like paninis and the breakfast special which sounded great. I look forward to frequenting here!"

Little Pecan Bistro

★★★★★ 4.7 (117) • $$

"Helpful tip: The perfect place to get lunch and then study next door at cafe Nero! Review: my friends from Boston College recommended this place. So you know if the college kids love it then it's definitely a go to place for food. It's a nice small casual food place. I got the grilled chicken sandwich and wow... I was not expecting this to be this good. It looked so good that I forgot to take a photo of the sandwich when it first came out. The chicken wasn't dry which was amazing! I'm definitely coming back again to try the many other great food on the menu."

Toasted Flats

★★★★★ 4.6 (122) • $

"Little shop at the corner with great service and delicious flats! It is great for on the way out or into the airport. One can order from the airport or after getting the rental car, then drive over to the store to pick up the order.We stopped in at 7AM for breakfast after we got off the flight. We ordered online and found street parking near the store. When the order was ready, one would receive a text. The store doesn't have table and chair so we ate in the car.The employees were super nice and accommodating on our order. We didn't wait for the order ready text and just stopped in. We didn't mind to wait but they hurrily prepared our order!The flat bread was toasted with meats or vegetables in the middle. Since the flat bread was toasted, it was soft yet crispy and warm. Yummy! Highly recommended!!!"

An Nam

★★★★☆ 4.1 (85)

"Came here on a Monday evening and the place had a decent amount of people for a weeknight, however there were plenty of seats open. We were seated quickly and were serviced quickly upon walking in which was nice. The interior was very modern - felt very nice and clean.The menu had a good selection of dishes and plenty of variety, I would say though that everything was pretty pricy. Being in Assembly though, I suppose it makes sense. The food itself came out within a reasonable amount of time and the portions were okay. Again, pricy and probably not worth the uncharge, but things were tasty nonetheless and I was satisfied at the end. The mussels were good and the noodles were good, just thought it would be more filling. Overall, An Nam was a good experience, I just would probably go somewhere more affordable if craving Vietnamese food next time and it'd likely be better for my wallet while tasting just as good."

Sweet Sip

"My favorite place for Thai tea! The staff is always friendly and accommodating with my orders."

11:11 Health Bar

★★★★★ 4.5 (69) • $$

"I was pleasantly surprised at the breadth of the menu, lots of options, and the quality of the product. While 11:11 has been open since 2018, Brinka Shishmanova took stewardship a little over 2 years ago, and has taken things to a whole new level. 11:11 had a wide and creatively concocted selection of Smoothies with names like "Hippie" (spinach, spirulina, banana, mango, kiwi, coconut water), "Inca" (banana, spinach, dried figs, cacao, spirulina, maca/Peruvian ginseng, peanut butter, almond milk), "Namaste" (banana, mango, chia seeds, kale, spinach, lemon, coconut water) which is said to promote "energy, alkalizing detox." 11:11 features 5 Açaí and Pitaya bowl options, each overflowing with plenty of palette-pleasing and healthy goodness. I personally enjoyed their "Coffee Heaven" smoothie, made with coffee, a full banana, plant-based chocolate protein, peanut butter, cacao nibs, and almond milk. I appreciated the attention to detail and proper blend of ingredients, so that no one component overpowered or insulted the senses. Another smoothie we enjoyed was the "Tropical Summer" (strawberry, banana, pineapple, mango, coconut water). Refreshing and yummy. If you're anywhere near the Newton Centre are and in the mood for a cool refreshing smoothy made with all natural and wholesome ingredients, and efficiently attentive staff (harder and harder to come by these days), please give Brinka's health bar a try, as I don't think you'll be disappointed."

Gypsy Place

★★★★☆ 4.1 (75)

"I placed a takeout order from Gypsy Place. I had an açaí bowl (without chia seeds as I'm allergic), and it was great! It was a fairly substantial portion for the price, and I liked that there was a nice ratio of açaí to berries/fruit/granola. I'm happy to know Gypsy Place is so close to home for me and look forward to returning!"

Dp Saigon Subs

★★★★☆ 4.3 (40)

"My friends and I got take out as she said they have good banh mi sandwiches. Since I was not involved in picking up or ordering, I can only comment on their methods of packing. Everything was individually packed and minimally labeled if with or without a certain ingredient. For drinks we got their Thai tea and Vietnamese iced coffee. The tea was served in a larger container and was satisfactory in sweetness and strength, unlike the coffee, which was overly bitter and not very sweet. Including the banh mi sandwiches, we got an order of the BBQ Pork Chop and Shredded Pork which came with white rice. The deli meats were similar to those sandwiches from Dorchester but the pate and scallion oil weren't as flavorful. The pork chop looked and apparently tasted dry since they cook all the protein in the morning and reheat it per meal due to the limited kitchen size. Overall, sandwiches were good but can't say the same for the rice dish. Would order more banh mi sandwiches in the future!"

"I had the pleasure of trying their crepes yesterday and boy was iit good! I have. Nice and fluffy and full of goodness. I went for dessert at lunch. Very friendly owner and staff too and you know what I love? I got a Diet Coke with it and they didn't charge me $5 for it. It was extremely appreciated.I'll be back to try the peanut butter, jelly and marshmallow. Congratulations on a great restaurant"

La Cosecha

★★★★★ 4.7 (6)

"Cool hole in the wall, Columbian joint in Somerville. It has limited seating, but it's decorated in a very colorful & festive way. Employees seem to engage well with the customers and all their food & desserts look amazing. I grabbed a salpicón (juice with chopped watermelon, apples and grapes), which was so refreshing. Anything you're craving, I'm sure this place can satisfy, check out their menu on their website. From steaks to smoothies. They also provide delivery & takeout. I will be back again to try their empanadas and brunch!"

Cinco Chiles Taqueria

"This place is just getting going, so you need to be patient with the service.But the food is so good. At least the burrito was.Definitely will return to try the smoothies, they seem like a good deal."

BARE Blends

★★★★★ 5 (3)

"Came here for the first time last night and was pleasantly surprised. They had a special discounted acai bowl that my friends enjoyed, but I opted for the Blue Lagoon bowl. It had fresh blueberries and was super filling. The service is friendly and the space is bright and clean, making Bare Blends a good stop for some nutritious and yummy bowls and smoothies!"

Tenóch Mexican

"I ordered 2 carne asada tacos. I recommend getting at least 3 tacos if you're very hungry. We got a side of chips and guac. Everything was delicious! My only complaint is that the drink selection was very limited."
