  • Portugal Wine Dinner

    $120.00 per person

    Feb 25, 2025 only
    Come find out why you should be drinking more wine from Portugal! With more than 250 indigenous grape varieties, and a history of winemaking that dates back to the 7th century BC, there is a lot to explore. We’ll be pouring small production wines, some innovative and new, some made according to 2,000 year old traditions. All unique, all natural, all delightful. Chefs Eric Cooper & Alycia Palame have curated dishes to pair with each wine, with Omnivore, Vegetarian and Vegan iterations of the menu available. The cost is $120 per person, for the food & wine, and doesn’t include tax, tip, or add ons like additional courses, pickle platters, or an extra glass of wine.

  • VALENTINE'S DAY

    Multiple dates available
    A four course menu created by Chefs Eric Cooper & Alycia Palame, with optional wine parings curated by wino-in-residence Teague Mitchell.

    Outstanding and flavorful cocktails, food that feels connected to the earth, and an independent ethos that turns their weird little basement into a bastion of hope and creative indulgences. A delightful spot!

    Service was outstanding and cocktails were excellent. The food was good - we would not say great, particularly given the prices.

    What an amazing, innovative and charming restaurant! The waitstaff were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The food is sublime, we paired our dinner with unique and refreshing non- alcoholic drinks. We also sampled a couple of the wines by the glass which were excellent. We look forward to returning back for another meal on our next visit to Cambridge.

    Delicious food. We did the vegan tasting menu and omnivore tasting menu. Both were delicious. It's hard to find vegan food that had good protein and real vegetables and this hit all marks! We'll definitely be back for another special occasion.

    We had two different tasting menus: carnivore and vegetarian. Both were terrific. Service was impeccable and when we didn't like a course, they replaced it without needing to ask. Wine was very well paired. Excellent experience overall.

    This was our first visit to Forage and it was remarkable. Quiet but friendly ad passionate people working there who were happy to take many questions about the food, never rushing but also bringing out each course in just the right time. Two of our party are vegan and the server marked up our menu showing which dishes could be made vegan, which was so helpful. And the food was AMAZING. Just unbelievably good. 10 our of 10!!
