She anticipated our requests, came by exactly on time, and said all the right things. We had a perfect table in the shade on a hot day, and the food was outstanding. We lingered for an extended chat, and felt no pressure to vacate. It was perfect!More infoHenrietta's Table$$$$• American• Harvard Square•4.5
- KPKatherineP1 review5.0Dined 5 days agoIn a rapidly changing world, it's lovely to find that some places haven't. The Harvest has maintained both the quality of the food and the overall experience since we started going there when they opened. A long time ago! This was lunch on the patio. Jacob, or terrific server, moved us to a sunny spot at our request and was attentive and pleasant throughout. Savenor's hamburgers! We hadn't had anyone's for many months and decided to go for the best there are. A tiny quibble, the excellent fries were a little salty. I opted for salad instead, which was a fresh frisee, perfect for the start of summer overall!!More infoHarvest$$$$• 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.
