I came to tatte for the black sesame latte but was seduced by the orange blossom latte and had to…read moregive it a shot. I've been drooling over the passion fruit krembo and the pear tart so I had to give them a try as well. Pear tart- absolutely perfect, so mellow and sweet and I loved the poached pear in the middle! Passionfruit krembo- honestly stronger on the coconut and meringue flavor than on the passion fruit? Tastes almost like a lemon meringue tart to me. Orange blossom latte- frankly didn't get any flavor of orange blossom in the latte, until it melted totally I could taste it a little in the coffee. The vanilla was also really light. It's a pretty unadulterated coffee (as is typical for a cold brew) and I kinda like my coffee sweet and creamy, so I was not too impressed on a first taste. But once it melted I liked it a lot more. Probably will stick with black sesame next time. Note- they serve their pastries glued with sugar (?) on a cardboard round. Im not too sure how to eat it like this so I ended up prying them off the round.

I love this Tatte location - a couple blocks from Coolidge Corner with plenty of seating and nice…read moreambience and natural lighting! It's a great spot to grab a coffee with a friend or stay longer to work on your laptop. I tried their new overnight oats with peach and raspberry which was delicious, fresh, and creamy! It was filling and a generous portion size. Other menu items I have enjoyed on prior visits are the caprese sandwich and avocado tartine and you can't go wrong with any of their lattes or chai. The sauce on Tatte broccolini squash pita flavor I thought was overpowering which I tried twice on previous visits. Service was quick and friendly! They have a water station and grab your own silverware.

Quickly sat on a busy Saturday afternoon, super cute spot and elevated interior. Service was quick…read moreand always checking in or clearing tables. Everyone was around to help out and assist! I was craving a chicken caesar wrap for a while now, and man am I glad I picked that! It was fantastic, crispy, the lettuce wasn't cooked, and had a subtle but pleasant kick to it. They must of had lime in the dressing because it was actually refreshing! I was shocked by the time I looked down at my plate I ate it all! Great atmosphere and great food!

We were aiming to hit another spot for lunch not realizing they had moved locations, which is fine…read morehaha i always wanted to check out Shy Bird. We went mid-day. No wait, looks like they were just opening for the lunch session and we were able to get seated right away. We ordered the à la carte nuggets ordered by the piece. $0.60/ea piece. The batter was light, chicken tasted fresh. I probably could have used some more seasoning in the nugget batter itself but we opted for the spread of dipping sauces (i forgot how much that was but it wasn't bad). You get to try all their sauces: + chipotle bbq - Smokey tangy i liked it + honey mustard - my lady likes this type dip not I though. +pecorino ranch - this was new to me the pecorino gives it the feta cheese sort of flavor hit. Wasn't my cup of tea personally. + sweet and sour my least favorite + bird bath - hot sauce with flavor still. Doesn't kick you in the face The sandwiches, we ordered a ranch fried chicken and the chedder chipotle bacon burger! Both sandwiches had soft buns. The chicken was crispy and a good portion. The chicken was moist and I'm thankful! The fries were perfectly crispy. The relish and ranch made the sandwich pretty creamy, I hope they do a Nashville hot style or something with a kick as that's more my preference for chicken sandwich. The burger was juicy not overcooked and the flavor profile melted together well! The chedder and chipotle can't really go wrong after slapping some crispy slices of bacon on! Pleasant change of plans would return!

GOD BLESS AMERICA...and this sandwich!! Never have I ever had a better sub in my life. The bread,…read morethe meats, the toppings; everything tasted like the best of the best! Walking through the front door is like walking through a secret portal to Italy (I'm not kidding). The smells and sights of fresh meat hanging from the ceiling is what I imagine heaven to be like! I ordered the Italian sub. First of all, it is HUGE in both length and circumference. One sub can easily be split between two people. The bread-to-meat ratio is perfect. I could taste each individual ingredient with every bite, which is a unique experience that only happens when everything is fresh and flavorful as can be. I think this place just ruined subs for me because no other will come close to being THIS good. If I were on death row, this sandwich would be part of my last meal. I feel like I cannot adequately put into words just how amazing it is. Do yourself a favor and check this place out sooner than later! :)

I came for the much heralded Italian sandwich and it did not disappoint…read more Small, 2-room shop on Salem Street, right next to Bova's Bakery, good for Italian provisions and artful Italian sandwiches. As the name "Mercato" implies, it's not a restaurant, so no place to eat, no place to "do your business" after, and if you've made it to the north end, you already know there's no place to park. -- Italian Sandwich: Long, soft bread, kinda like the kind you had in your school cafeteria, only a million times softer, a million times more crackly, and a million times better. Setting the base are oil, balsamic vinegar, lettuce, tomato, pickles, hots, and provolone. Italian sandwiches usually come flat-stacked or in a C-shape. Here, it's a fluffy stack, with the VERY-thin-sliced-to-order meats-- prosciutto, mortadella, salami-- piled generously but delicately, like tissue paper. More oil and balsamic on the other side seals the deal. It's a glorious sandwich that'll fill you up with the first half, but you'll want to keep eating the second half, because it's so good. The deep flavors of the meats comes through, and that's soft, crunchy bread is a delight. Pro tip #1: Get it with a small side of pesto. Have some bites with, some bites without. Pro tip #2 (in more ways than one): Plan your restroom visit at the nearby Boston Public Market. Pro tip #3: Plan your eating near the Paul Revere statue on Hanover Street, at the basketball court down Stillman Street, or on the Greenway down Hanover Street.
