The steak was juicy and well-seasoned, and the BLT had that perfect crispy bite. Can't wait to come back and try more from the menu. After lunch, we explored the rest of the mall. It's definitely changed a lot since I was a kid coming here--but honestly, I wouldn't complain about the improvements. It feels more open, a little more modern, and there's still a mix of fun places to shop and hang out. It's nice to see a familiar spot evolve while still keeping that nostalgic charm.

Some super friendly and some super rude. Value is average but I think some of the food places were over priced and food under value with no flavor . I do love the cobble stone streets and other vendors surrounding the hall.

The whole atmosphere is cold, not inviting and boring. No distinction, character or charm. Before there used to be. Under better prior management I presume. Removing the iconic waterfall? Big mistake. It was elegantly paved with small penny fountains. It was timeless. This urge to just nuke what was beloved to make everything look like a clinical and soulless hallway. All employees at almost every store are glued to their phone and not present at all to customers. You don't make money that way. Even the joke of security guards are glued to their phones outside Gucci. What a joke. In unpredictable and trying times like these, inflation isn't going anywhere and high end stores need to actually try. It was never this catered to the 1%. You could actually go to a restaurant or store and not feel like you've been robbed and facing a debt to pay off for a year. Management can waste their breath saying that Copley was simply updated to keep up with trends. Well, you failed. There's no heart, hardly any selection, all classic architectural which features attracted people from all over the world - destroyed where you do not know where you are. What once was a place of wonderment, excitement and to spark your Christmas Spirit, is now simply a drain of disappointment as you go home with a sigh. Management - you don't have to bother responding. You obviously made decisions to destroy the good made by top notch engineers. It's too late. Sad.

Updated 8/28/18:…read more When you live near 1 Kendall Square, you realize some things: A. There is no liquor store within a half mile of you. B. Grocery stores are few and far between. C. Restaurants cater to the bio-tech industry = higher prices D. The T isn't close and buses rarely pass through. Parking is available at a garage, probably your best bet on a busy night. E. There are great restaurants and bars, and nightlife is FINALLY increasing! So WHY walk a half mile from the Kendall T Stop in a direction you're pretty sure is leading you to nowhere? Here are 10 respectable reasons involving food and at least one non-food related ... Amelia's Not actually IN 1 Kendall Sq, but only a block south on Portland Street. Italian. Small, intimate. Pricey, but tasty. Atasca For Portugese fine dining just beyond Emma's about 500 ft. Outdoor seating. The Beantown Coffeehouse Open on weekdays, but not late. Good muffins, coffee, sandwiches (of the breakfast and lunch type) Beauty's Pizza Take-out pizza, doughy and tasty, loaded toppings. Not IN the square, but not far... Bon Me Yeah, you know that food truck? It has claimed space here, too. Cafe du Pays Cambridge Brewing Company (CBC) Fresh brewed beer by CBC and food. Outdoor seating. Flattop Johnny's Bunch of pool tables, two dart boards. Outdoor seating.

Once she found help for us, I asked if I could try a couple on too. I was told by the sales associate that only one person at a time can be helped. Fine. I waited for another 10 minutes for the other client to choose which glasses she would buy. The sales associate then told me she had to go help them at the register and needed to find the cases for the glasses too. Another 15 minutes went by. At that point I just left. They're clearly not interested in making a sale. Such a shame because before this lock up situation, I used to buy all my glasses from this location. Looks like I'll need to find another store.

A twenty story building came up on Mass Ave the past year together with newly opened, modern style restaurants.

As a fan of graffiti and pop art I found this to be a real treasure, as there aren't many spots left in this country that allow this art expression in an open, welcomed public forum. If this type of art is not for you, skip it rather than posting a bad review. For those that appreciate this type of expression, it's worth a look if you're in the area. A side note: if this is your jam, check out Quincy Quarries as well. It's worth the drive.

Many restaurants in here too, that have some pretty delicious food! I love the Descendant Detroit Style Pizza spot near Sak's, Earl's Kitchen + Bar for drinks, Eataly which has casual food options like pizza slices or can dine upstairs at Terra, and CAVA, Sweetgreen, & Clover Lab for quick bites. Here, you are also able to purchase tickets from ViewBoston, to go up to the 360° observation deck to see Boston's beautiful skyline! They are open 10am-10pm daily. ViewBoston has now replaced the old Top of the Hub restaurant that was once here (I MISS IT SOOO MUCH BTW) on the 52nd floor. In with the new, out with the old!
