- MmaxwellVIPGreater Boston •25 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoA great spot for a cold winter night. Food is excellent. Our waitress Natalya was helpful and attentive. She pointed out that the large salad I was going to order as an appetizer could be ordered in a smaller version instead of fries for a modest additional charge. Just the sort of thing you appreciate from a server.More infoAlden and HarlowPrice: Moderate• American• West Cambridge•4.6

- RRobertVIPGreater Boston •26 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoHad a wonderful meal at Harvest tonight. Started off with the beet appetizer and the 3 cheese plate, cheddar was a little dry but otherwise tasty. We had the gnocchi (my wife claimed it was the best pasta she has ever had) and I had the tagliatelle. Both were superb. We split the pumpkin tart. The food was excellent, perfectly served and very tasty. What made the night was our server, Maria. Absolutely the best service we have had in any restaurant: attentive, personable, interested.......ne plus ultra........thank you for making this meal and night out a memorable experience.More infoHarvestPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Cambridge•4.6

Discover Boston
Beantown, dubbed for the baked beans that put the city on the map, is about far more than beans these days. Local restaurants channel the region’s farm-to-table traditions and celebrate the iconic seafood of New England’s coast—no trip to the region is complete without a proper lobster (pronounced “lob-stah,” steamed and served with butter and corn on-the-cob), freshly shucked oysters, fried clams—you name it. Hometown to a handful of internationally influential female restaurateurs and the inimitable legacy of Julia Child, who called Cambridge home, Boston will always be a city where liberal sensibilities meet a global approach, in politics and on the plate.
