"FRESH FROM THE FARM AND HONEST TO GOODNESS HOME COOKING"Henrietta’s Table opened its doors to a diverse and adoring public 20 years ago. In that time the restaurant has come to be the dining room of Nobel laureates, celebrities and New England Farmers. The Charles Hotel’s Executive Chef, Sean Lizotte, helms Henrietta’s Table and has designed a menu of "honest to goodness New England cooking."Henrietta's Table has been at the forefront of farm-to-table dining since before it was a trend or a hashtag. Located in the heart of Harvard Square, you don't need a degree to appreciate our simple, homemade flavors - just like you'd find in Grandma's kitchen. The Ritz cracker crusted scrod, Yankee pot roast and warm grain bowl are some of our guests' favorite dishes.

    We went for the 1st time Sat 1/4 at 6:30pm. It was our anniversary and we’re excited to have a nice, romantic dinner. Ambiance was nice, hostess had a special table picked out and sprinkled rose petals on the table ( very nice touch). She was great! It was an extremely slow night. Service was prompt and server was very good. Personable and prompt. Bread was brought out to start and it was completely disappointing. 2 thin slices of cheap, store bought Italian bread, pre buttered with a chipotle mayo style sauce, in a fake wooden bowl lined with waxed paper. Hate to be so harsh, but it gave a terrible 1st impression. We had an appetizer. calamari (excellent). We had entrees, Filet w/ delicious Demi glaz and a ravioli dish, both excellent. Had one glass of wine, one cocktail, one dessert, $237 w/ tip was not a great value. They need to do something about the bread ASAP. It was embarrassing and easily upgraded.

    Bistro du Midi is my new favorite French restaurant. The downstairs felt like a nice cocktail bar, while the upstairs felt like an intimate slice of Paris. The food was incredible! It is on the menu, I highly recommend the beet gnocchi as an appetizer. My girlfriend and I had the duck breast, ora king salmon, with a side of cauliflower. Each bite left us feeling satisfied with the craving to have more . Well worth it for the experience, and the service was exceptional. I cannot wait until we eat here again!

    I had a truly delightful dinner at Terra Eataly, and I can’t wait to return! My server, Cristhian, was exceptional. He was not only incredibly friendly but also very knowledgeable about the menu. As it was my first visit to Terra, I appreciated his recommendations. To start, I tried the Burrata e Funghi. Despite not being a big fan of cheese, I found it absolutely delicious – a surprising and memorable choice for me! For my main course, I opted for the cod, which exceeded all expectations. Cod can often be overcooked at restaurants, but this dish was perfectly prepared, tender, and flavorful. The entire dining experience was excellent, from the attentive service to the thoughtfully crafted dishes. I highly recommend Terra to anyone looking for a wonderful meal and can confidently say I’ll be back soon!
