Angela P: Great food and drinks. We just grabbed a couple appetizers but both were super flavorful @amp_eats (instagram and Facebook)Food: 5/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

J B: It was a warm and cozy place. Great seating that helped keep conversations and interactions intimate while also holding space for wider and boisterous parties. Food was great too. Surprising little spot. Check it out.

Jennifer Liang: We came on a weeknight and it was pretty lively. I really liked the bruschetta — generous amounts of topping and the flavours went well together. The mushroom risotto was great but I was disappointed by the spring gnocchi. Service wasn’t the best that I’ve receivedRecommended dishes Risotto …More

Ben Perlmutter: Walked in at 9pm for dinner and was seated quickly downstairs, in a quiet corner, and checked on promptly by the bartender (Brian V) who was also my server.I was between steak tips and pork tenderloin and the server, and he efficiently suggested the pork, which was cheaper. I’ll have to go back to see if he was right, but the pork was absurdly good. It was juicy and well-seasoned, and came with potatoes and two veggies, all of which were perfectly seasoned, tasty, and hot.I was about 3 minutes from done eating when a party of 11 came in to the then-empty downstairs so I waited a little longer than I preferred until he returned, but he came back to check on me immediately after the large party was served their drinks.At that point, I ordered the chocolate cake, subbing the coconut ice cream for vanilla, as I have a near-allergy condition (oral allergy syndrome) which makes coconut a bad idea for me. Unfortunately for me, the server came back from the kitchen and told me there was cross contamination between the cake and the coconut, and wasn’t comfortable serving me cake even though I explained my (non-deadly, but unpleasant) condition more clearly to him, and indicated that I could consume coconut as long as it wasn’t an ingredient I would at worst have an unpleasant evening.Anyways, while I would have loved to try the cake, I VERY much appreciate the server’s attention to detail and concern for my safety. On the whole, the food was excellent, service was very good, and the vibes were pleasant.I will definitely be back, but I certainly hope that by that point the coconut ice cream is in the trash, where it belongs, and the dessert menu contains at least two choices of chocolate dessert without nuts or coffee of any kind spoiling them!

Hassan Chehab: Amazing place. The menu is really delectable. I was not very hungry but I'm definitely coming back to sample the rest of the menu. We got Rusty Nails (great), hummus+pita, duck confit, and a burger. Food was really good. The apps were pricey, but they're offset by the entrées being priced fairly. So you may as well just get an entrée.

Jaye Aster Broder: Great happy hour spot. There are two levels with the second accessed by stairs. Most of the tables are high top with high chairs or booths. The staff is patient. There is a decent and reasonable for Cambridge priced cocktail list. The fried calamari and flatbread were very good and easy to share. The beef skewers came with a salad. The menu is available by QR code. It was fairly easy to make a reservation. I would come back here.

Kalidindi Subhash: I had the fish and chips. It was good. The portions were moderate and the food was tasty. Really good ambience. The outdoor setting is awesome and beautiful.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Susan Davis: I had a great burger here. It wasn't too crowded on a Saturday. You can easily get a table.

Colin Cumming: I got the Daedalus burger, and it was delicious. Good selection of drinks and a good sized menus with a lot of wonderful options. It's right near Harvard's campus, and it was very cute inside. There was also a very cute outdoor sitting area upstairs, but it was too cold for that this time.

Summer Wang: The drinks were not bad. What I like the most is their rooftop seating area. Would love to come back again before the weather starts getting cold.

Sarthak Kotecha: A perfect dinner date place. Good food. Nice ambience. Decent drinks. A little expensive but great for spoiling your date ;)

Nicole BG: Best Sangria!!! Food was also yummy.and roof deck is awesome.

ARMANDO RODRIGUEZ: The hostess with blue hair was very short with us and treated me and my friend like we were not welcomed. She seated us in a nice cozy corner before warning us of a time limit to our visit. This was very unusual considering there were over 6-10 tables available. Then, not even 3 minutes later, she comes over and tells us that we need to move because she made a mistake with seating. The only other options had the sun blinding either my date or myself. Frankly, my guest and I felt unwelcomed and unwanted so we decided to leave instead of providing them our business.

Tanya Cosway: Excellent service and cocktails. Flavourful food. Outdoor dining is a treat!

Lissa McBurney: Delicious but GOOGLE MENU PHOTOS ARE WRONG! I showed up expecting a meal for about $20, but current small salads are about $15, entrees $25-40, don't serve sandwiches, etc, etc. Close to $150 for a couple cocktails, appetizers, and one entree. Don't get me wrong, food and service are great, and prices are in line with value!! But know what you're in for....

Anoop Bhat: I got their summer gnocchi and enjoyed it! Didn't get the outdoor seating, but the ambience on the 2nd floor was still pretty nice.

Julia Moreland: This is one of the first places I visited when I moved to Boston and I can’t even count the number of times I’ve been back since. Amazing patio upstairs, perfect for the summer. (See the host downstairs for seating). Fun drinks that keep changing, good seafood meal options too!Fun tip: in the summer I swing in here to put my name on the list, then walk over to Shay’s and sit outside with some wine before seating. Works great!

Stephen McDonough: Great 🍕 place

Lucy Loo: Food here is innovative and well prepared. They use nice fresh ingredients and rotate seafood offerings. The salads are spectacular.

Asan Muhammed: We can talk about Del Friscos (amazing customer service), Moo, or Abe and Louis and none of them compare to the garlic studded steak at Evoo. Its often undercooked, so get it butterflied if you want it medium well or well done. You cut into it and the whole cloves of garlic come falling out. Its simply incredible.

Madeline Cortes: We used EVOO for our wedding rehearsal! We consider ourselves so fortunate to have discovered this restaurant on a Kendall Square food tour a few years ago. At the time that we booked, they were closing the restaurant on Friday evenings and sectioning off the areas for private events. Luckily, we were the only event in the restaurant the evening of our rehearsal dinner. Management’s communication was flawless and personal. The chef and their team assembled a delightful menu with seasonal dishes that highlighted the classic flavors of New England for our out-of-town guests. Even the vegetarians dined like royalty. And we loved that they included one of our engagement photos on the printed menu. They really made what would have been a small part of our wedding weekend into an intimate gathering of our closest friends and family. We plan to go back to celebrate our first anniversary in a place that has become so special to us.

Bing Jedi: A very fine restaurant sharing the same bar with the Za next door. Friendly and thoughtful serving staff (Eileen & Tristan). In close proximity to Charles river and steps away from the kayak launching site, the spacious outdoor tables are good place to hang out at all times. I have tried both lunch and dinner on different occasions and never got disappointed.

shelley: Before any more time goes by, I need to post an EVOO review. Last month my son and daughter-in-law hosted their rehearsal dinner at EVOO. The tasteful and pleasant private dining room was just the right size for the small reception of around twenty guests.The service was impeccable, the servers completely delightful. It was the perfect venue to begin the weekend festivities. Oh, the food: THE best beef tenderloin I’ve ever tasted. My husband felt exactly the same about his salmon. (Please believe me.)There can be a lot of nerves that need to settle down at the start of a weekend like this, with some family members meeting for the first time. The staff was excellent at making very happy campers of all of us. I cannot recommend EVOO highly enough.

Nir Melamoud: bread and bean paste in oil not great,salad was goodsalmon was ok, but i didn't like the risotto at all.extremely small dishcarrot cake wasn't great, but I'm not a fan to begin with.

Christophe Diot: very nice people (and service) and average food. wine far over-priced.

Dalia Ornelas: This place offers food with fresh and local ingredients. We tried the salmon, the hamburger and the pannacota. Everything was really good, we particularly enjoyed the hamburger and dessert. The staff was very nice but we waited for a while for our food to come.

Pratip Banerji: We went to EVOO for dinner on the night of their reopening. We were not disappointed. The food was very good and the service was absolutely amazing. It's nice to see this gem up and running again.

Maureen Meyer: A bit expensive but our meals were great and so was the service. For a Friday night we were surprised to walk in and see it was rather quiet. Kendall square may be busier doing the week? Not sure but it worked for us. Also, the restaurant was toasty warm on a cold night.

Justin Torre: Slow, also extrenely over priced. There is so much better food around the area. Dont waste your time

S T: Great service. Good place for business dinner. Simple menu for large groups.

Andy Milo: Very good food, with each course tastier than the last.

Shlomi Cohen-Ganor: The food was good but not great, didn't justify the cost IMO.

Ceri Callander: Lovely atmosphere, attentive service and really good food.
