Harissa chicken avocado, Lamb meatball bowl, pita chips
Jenny T.

Food: They only gave me two lamb meatballs... other than that, the food was really flavorful and fresh. The pita chips were kind of dry. Service: Fast. Ambiance: Tables could've been cleaner, but there's a good amount of indoor seating and natural lighting.

No plugs near seats at all

I want to report a maintenance issue at the CAVA Assembly Row location in Somerville. During my visit, I noticed that the wall electrical outlets available for customers were not working. This was disappointing, especially in a restaurant where many people may want to charge their phones or laptops while dining. In addition, there are no conveniently accessible working outlets in the seating area. Customers who need power would have to run a long extension cord across a walkway toward the restroom, which could create a tripping hazard for both customers and staff. These seem like basic maintenance and safety issues that should be addressed promptly. I hope the restaurant has the outlets inspected and repaired by a qualified electrician and considers providing safe, accessible power outlets for customers. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Having heard from several people that I needed to go to Sarma, I was so glad to have snagged a…read morereservation! When making one, be sure to go online as soon as reservations open at 10AM for reservations 30 days in advance. As expected, the food was some of the best I have ever had in my life. Everything had amazing textures and flavors; some of our favorites were the squash fritters and the octopus Slovaki. In terms of ambiance, Sarma is a beautifully decorated space with lovely, kind staff. I also appreciated that they nicely spaced the dishes so we could spend time enjoying the food and each other's company. Therefore, Sarma is a must-try; I know I will be back many times!

Simply divine and excellent, no words honestly…read more Just minutes away from Gilman Square is Sarma, which holds some of the best Turkish and Mediterranean style food that I've had in my life. They do a unique, fusion-y variety of small plates that are great to share with friends and family. Service is wonderful. Their menu often changes, but there are a few things that are consistent. Their infamous black sea cornbread deserves all the hype. The avocado muhammara is excellent and creamy, paired well with the burrata. Love their harissa barbecue duck skewer. The fried chicken that comes around during the night is also solid. Other dishes that I love that I'm not sure are year-round: Asian pear salad, scallop crisp, and lentil nachos. I think Sarma can be a bit inconsistent at times. I've had very salty brussels sprouts and pastitsio before.

Booked a table at Oleana a month in advance for our anniversary with my husband and toddler as we…read morewere planning to spend that day in Cambridge and it's consistently rated as one of the best restaurants in the area. We got a lovely corner table by the window, and they offered us a high chair even though we ended up not needing it. Our server was knowledgeable and gave us great recommendations, walking us through portion sizes and the drink menu. We totally enjoyed every dish we ordered. My favorites were the Sultan's Delight and the moussaka -flavors were deep and maxed out, and every texture, from the meat to the veggies, was cooked to perfection. The only minor hiccup was the pacing(I expected the mezze to come first and mains after, but the order came out a bit mixed). We also ordered the "mac and cheese" plate for our toddler, and it was surprisingly healthy and delicious - my husband ended up eating it with pleasure too. The atmosphere was lively, even a little noisy at times, but we loved it. A wonderful evening overall, and we'd absolutely come back.

We're regulars at Oleana and it rarely disappoints--the vegetarian mezze selection is genuinely…read moreoutstanding. On our latest visit, we ordered the Za'atar Bread, Topik, Zucchini Pancake, and two desserts (Muhalabi and Almond Cremolata). The Good: Everything vegetable-forward was exceptional. The Topik's creamy potato hummus with pine nuts and currants is always a winner. The Za'atar Bread with muhammara and tahini labne is the perfect opener. The Zucchini Pancake with charred eggplant and corn & pepper ezme is underrated--complex and satisfying. Both desserts were delicious: the Muhalabi (dark chocolate, kaymak ice cream, rye cocoa shortbread) is sophisticated and rich, while the Almond Cremolata is lighter and coconutty. The Disappointing: We ordered the Sultan's Delight ($23) and got mostly fat with no actual meat. For the price point, it felt underwhelming.
