    Hot Honey Chicken Bowl
    T W.

    This place is a hidden gem right in Harvard square. If no one has told you to check this place out I am! Food is Amazing, service is great! This is my third time ordering from here and they never fail to get me through the rest of my day. The ambiance in here is not by no means overwhelming , it could get noisy around lunchtime but that's basically expected

    Good indoor air ventilation

    Damn haven't had such rude services in Harvard Square/Boston in years! Pains me to write this review, especially I loved Dig Inn when it first became popular in NYC. Cambridge/Boston is copying NYC so much, nothing new here. But omg I haven't had such bad customer service experience in a long time! Two stars is fair. Fast casual + self service is always a great option for college campus clientele. One star for the great indoor air ventilation. The other star is for the great food. I originally thought I came here on an off-day, but after reading others reviews and I couldn't agree more, the workers just don't want to be here. Honestly just so sad because I don't plan to return anytime soon. And I've been rooting for Dig for a long time since it began construction/renovation in this street corner. Hope others have a better experience here.

    Chicken Bowl

    I got the grain bowl with a chicken protein and vegetables. It was super delicious as it tasted fresh and flavorful. The ingredients were very high quality and I would go back again. It is similar to the bowl restaurants like cava, pokeworks, and chipotle. But, this is not Greek, Hawaiian, or Mexican. It is American and compared to other restaurants, it does not exhibit fast food quality. The server was nice and quick as I came in near closing. The food was still warm and in a fresh batch. The atmosphere was very modern. It is in a prime area that is busy.

    DIG has quickly become one of my favorite bowl shops, especially when I'm looking for something that'll keep me full. This was my first time visiting their Harvard Square location, and I really loved the look and feel of it. There are a ton of tables and booths here, perfect if you want to eat and talk with some friends, or you can easily take your food to-go. At the counter, you have the choice of creating your own bowl or ordering one of their signature creations. I tried the hot honey chicken plate, which includes chicken, carrots, broccoli, and mac and cheese. Not only were the quality of the ingredients above average, but the combination of all the flavors worked really well together. The sauce wasn't very spicy, but it was sweet and flavorful. However, if you do not like your food/sides touching each other or do not like overly saucy foods, DIG might not be for you. The bowls can get messy, especially depending on the dressings you choose, so keep that in mind if you give it a visit!

    Food line! Shoutout all the friendly staff

    My current favorite restaurant in harvard square. As a vegan, they have so many wonderful options but my meat eating friends love it too. It's like a heartier, better sweetgreen (or American version of chipotle). Also like $12-$13 for a restaurant quality meal. Things to get!! - brown rice base is delish - kale Caesar is very good (it's vegan, I will usually do half kale half brown rice base) - potato salad (it's vegan!!), prob best potato salad I've had in my life - mac & cheese, not vegan but apparently tops - broccoli, vegan and really nice and charred - cauliflower, not vegan but very good - grilled tofu - ask for their tofu aoli side!

    Wild Alaskan Salmon Marketbowl
    Raymond H.

    If you've been to a Dig Inn/Dig elsewhere before, expect the same simple but tasty food here. I got the Wild Alaskan Salmon Marketbowl, with Garlic Aioli, Cashew Kale Ceasar, and spiced Farro. Everything was cooked just as you expected with fantastic flavor and texture. The salmon was perfectly cooked and seasoned (not dry!!), the cashew kale caesar and farro was delicious as well. The only knock I would say its that considering the other comparable options in the area, this isn't the most affordable option but I felt very filled after finishing the bowl. I've since left the Harvard campus and wish DIG had come just a year or two earlier!

We were very warmly welcomed by the owner Rebecca and our waiter Luan who brought us complimentary glasses of a very good champagne. For appetizers we shared a Lobster & Crab Bisque and a Caesar Salad which were small but good. The sharing-sized plates at neighboring tables looked very generous so we created our own two-plate "collection" instead of a standard three-plate collection on the menu: Seared Duck Breast with applejack demi-glace; grilled Johnnycake; brussels sprouts. Ribeye Steak with herb butter; garlic mashed potatoes; grilled asparagus. These dishes were outstanding and absolutely delicious !!!

The staff was friendly as well. I had the Unicorn Oysters 3 Ways. Of the three, my favorite was the deviled egg with the bacon jam. It was smokey, real flavoful, and had a nice contrast of textures. For the 2nd course, you can opt for 1 large plate or 2 small plates. I got the 2 plates of swordfish and the steak tips. The swordfish was really good. It was my fave dish of the night. The steak tips was just okay in my opinion. It wasn't that memorable. For the last course, i had the mango & coconut creme brulee. It had a nice smokey sweetness from the burnt sugar. When you eat it, i first tasted the mango, and it was nice and ripe. On the finish, it transitions to the coconut flavor, so it was a really nice well executed dish. For cocktails, i had the pink vesper (which i really enjoyed), and the old fashioned which was good but not outstanding. Overall, the ambiance, food, and service was solid. I am open to come back and try their other offerings.

    Wow talk about a hidden gem!…read more I hadn't heard much about this place so I wasn't sure what to expect-- located in Inman square with nearby limited street parking (there's a metered lot on Springfield street nearby!), Oak Bistro is a medium sized restaurant with a simple but chic decor and true focus on hospitality. When we came in we were greeted and our coats were taken and put away. They have rotating specials that our server walked us through. We ordered all three of the mock tails on the menu -- Odin's Oracle was a sparkling elderflower and passion fruit drink, the Northern Rose was fruity with a slight thick cream of coconut base (and the tables favorite!) and the last drink was a warm ginger drink. They all came out looking beautiful. For food, we started with the Halloumi Cheese which was delicious and perfect for sharing (comes with four pieces), then tried the Blueberry Ricotta Cornbread (really well made and yummy but needed a little more butter spread) and the fried burrata (huge serving of burrata with balsamic, fig jam, warm bread, just as good as it sounds). We tried the Braised Short Rib Croquettes which were stuffed with short rib and topped with sooo much yummy cheese. We also had the Pappardelle braised shore rib Ragu which was truly delicious-- would highly recommend. For dessert we tried a special menu bread pudding which was a perfect end to the night. Our leftovers came perfectly packaged in little baggies with dish names and dates written on them which is so cute and thoughtful! Overall I would order everything we got again and was so pleasantly surprised by the caliber of food at Oak Bistro-- get in and try it before it gets too popular!

Service was good overall, but our drinks kept getting bussed before we were finished with them, which was unfortunate. Overall though, a good experience!

My partner and I couldn't decide what to get from their a la carte menu so we ended up going for the four-course tasting menu instead ($85/pp), picking the omnivore and pescatarian options to see if we could try more items. We were actually a little underwhelmed at first, but the tasting menu got better and better after each course. The tasting menu started with some of their in-house pickles and ferments. We had some onion, green beans, and cucumbers, which I wished were crunchier. Each pickle had a good amount of acidity but I wouldn't have minded if the flavors were punchier. The first course of the tasting menu was a salad. Visually it just looked like a pile of lettuce, but they added a savory garlicky sauce and a sprinkle of asparagus salt that allowed the dish to feel refreshing and hearty at the same time. The radishes were crunchy, peppery, and delicious, and we were very pleased to find that many of the later courses also included raw radish. We ended up getting different dishes for the second course, one of which involved deep-fried arancini-like balls of risotto with a creamy sauce, and the other had a cold plant-based loaf served with a vibrant garlic sauce. Both dishes featured some fresh greens that balanced the carby heaviness. By the time we got to the third course, we realized that Forage makes their vegetables shine. The omnivore course came with a steak while the pescatarian course had a pan-fried fish, both of which were also available to be ordered a la carte. While we thought that the steak and fish were seasoned and prepared well, the vegetables stood out to us even more. They weren't prepared in any crazily innovative way but the chefs made the natural flavors of the vegetables shine in a way that complemented the rest of the dish very well. After the third course, we added one optional cheese course ($22/pp) that came with even more radishes. The hazelnut shortbread was super buttery and everything went well together. I was already feeling pretty full and was glad that we only got one cheese course instead of two. Finally, the fourth course had a maple semifreddo with seaweed crisps and a caramel nut sauce. This was amazing and something that I'll think about for a long time! I could really taste the maple flavor in the semifreddo, and the cold creaminess went so well with the salty, crispy seaweed and nutty, buttery caramel. The balance of textures and flavors in the dessert was excellent. Along with the tasting menu, we added one wine pairing ($60/pp). We liked some of the wines so much that we asked for more information about them and learned that some of the wines are imported in small batches. After experiencing how well vegetables are prepared here, I'd love to visit during different seasons to sample their vegetarian menu items.

    Amazing and unique spot. Thoughtful and interesting menu with local ingredients. Fantastic…read more cocktails and wine selection.
