The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar

Really like the atmosphere of this restaurant. Went on a Wednesday night so it was fairly empty and quiet, which I didn't mind. Attended during Boston/restaurant week. Most of the food was great. The scallops with mushroom risotto and the vanilla crème brûlée, my favorite dishes of the night. Buffalo cauliflower and fish taco were also good. Steak was a little tough but that was the only miss. Both drinks were well made, "blackberry smash" and "bow and arrow cocktail". There's a street with parking meters nearby but otherwise you might have to search. Glad I decided to try this place, good prices and food was worth it.

Although seating is a little cramped, there's no doubt in my mind that the scallops on risotto is the best I will ever experience. It wasn't crowded for a late Sunday lunch and the waitstaff was super helpful.

This place brings back the charm and soul of Harvard Square that's been missing for so long, and deserves nothing but five-star reviews IMO. I visited the bar on St. Patrick's Day, and from the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for a treat. The restaurant faces south, so the sun was pouring in, and the vibe was just perfect. The owner greeted us with a smile and showed us to our seats right away. And let me tell you, the menu had something for everyone - even the pickiest of eaters would find something to love here. Since it was St. Paddy's Day, we went all out and ordered the corned beef and cabbage and fish and chips, and boy, were they delicious! I've never had corned beef and cabbage that tasted so good, and the fish and chips were fried to perfection. But that's not even the best part - a live band started playing at 4 PM, and the music was fantastic (I can't recall the band that was there tonight but it was Bon Iver Vibes A++). They have live music every Sunday. It's a top-notch spot that I can't wait to go back to again and again.

Solid foodA bit lacking in flavor both times i went.probably not worth a trip in of itself but an ok choice if in the area

The sandwich was mediocre, lemonade was okay, not very exciting experience. Never want to come back again ~

Thought that the food was good. Not a great amount but not a small portion either. Music and vibe was great. Service was very friendly.

The scallops with mushroom risotto was one of the best dishes I've had in a long long time! Absolutely worth a visit.

Had a lovely dinner there a couple of weeks ago. The place was comfortable, the service was great. They have just opened. We had a mushroom risotto, Caesar salad and fish and chips. The portions were a perfect size for me.

I'm housesitting nearby and was drawn in by the incredible name (and the reviews mentioning mushroom risotto). It was delightful! Had a delicious ginger beer for only two bucks (a steal!). The mushroom risotto was AMAZING--mushroomy and cheesy goodness all the way down, rice cooked perfectly. And finished off with a great, perfectly one-person sized creme brulee for $4. I couldn't try the cocktails that day, but the people at a table nearby seemed to really enjoy theirs. Good ambiance, and the wallpaper in the bathroom is hilarious! It wasn't too crowded cause it was about 5 pm and it seems like the place has only been around a few months. Y'all should come so it's still around the next time I'm in Cambridge!

Had one of the strangest restaurant experiences last evening at Sea Hag. Entered at 7:30, few diners there and place had very empty and unwelcoming feeling. Though waitress nice, unclear whether she was providing table service or you order from bar. Food mixed; apps good, one entree stone cold and another barely edible. As we ate, diners entering restaurant were turned away, so our group of 4 and some guy in the way back on a computer only people in restaurant. Very surprised the Globe gave the place such a good review last weekend.
