it is a great place to go for a bite or drink after the movie at kendell. i had the roast chicken that came with spinach (over salted) and mashed potatoes. yummm. fragrant, tasty, delicious. had it (could not finish)
again the next day in a salad.
my husband had the pizza and we shared a salad. so, so.
nice atmosphere, drinks, wine list.

That's been around for years, no? I have a vague recollection of it from the mid-1990s Kendall Square renaissance.

yes...it's a restaurant that's been doing a great job since it's opening. I don't get there often but always enjoy it.

They used to have a small "food bar" overlooking the kitchen with maybe 1/2 dozen stools; which was a very novel idea at the time and fun to eat at.

yes, it's been around for a long time and famous for their brunch as well. recently there was a write up about their chefs.

Always liked the Blue Room when I lived up in Cambridge. I'm glad they are still doing a good job. Many chefs there have moved to other good Boston restaurants through the years. There used to be a good sardines on the menu.
