Stopped by on a hot Boston afternoon with a group of friends. Line was long but it moved along…read morereasonably given how long some people were taking to order . Staff are helpful and moving as fast as they can, but this is just a popular place! I ordered as per the recommendation of my friends an original froyo with the made-in-house mochi and one of the cheesecake options (this time Oreo). Not that everything really tied together in some culinary way (nor does froyo usually anyways), but everything tasted amazing! Froyo is refreshing and just tastes high quality, and the mochi was also fantastic. Is it weird to say that the Oreo cheesecake was the least impressive part? Things are tight in the space, but you can just as easily eat it on the sidewalk outside, but if you get lucky, there's a small sun room with ~6-8 chairs you can eat in with your group. As a plus, they have a punchcard system?!

I've been here a few times now and it's a solid froyo spot! The line is usually a bit long…read moredepending on time of day and year, but I think it's worth it for a say 10-15 minute wait - anything longer and I'm sure there are other sweet treat options. The store is small so there's not room to eat inside. There are some picnic tables open outside depending on season which I've used and seen others sit at. They have a good selection of flavors and toppings, albeit the price is a bit steep. Portions are generous though and the end product is tasty. I like their mochi and cheesecake toppings while the original front flavor is solid. Overall, BerryLine is a great dessert option in the Harvard Square area and I'm sure I'll be back!

Can't believe that I just tried their açaí bowl today! I basically stop by smith center everyday,…read morebut jut didn't have the opportunity to have a smoothie bowl. It is one of the very good ones I've had (among different cities, different stores). The base is naturally sweetened with banana and mango and gives its silky texture and sweet aroma. I asked for cacao nibs to sub the granola and got a large amount of cacao in my bowl. Not complaining, super crunchy. The blueberries and strawberries are of great quality, too. Almond butter is creamy. I think I'll have their smoothie bowls more often. In the past I have tried (and also recommend) wellness shot, chia pudding (lots of chia soaked in coconut milk). Their baked goods are also good, I particularly like tahini cookies (lots of super food and good stuff in there, like oats and sesame seeds, also chocolate chips of course) than muffin, although the latter is also made from healthy ingredients. Service is quick and friendly. Good experience!

I came here to get lunch while visiting Boston…read more The space itself is really cool -- makes me feel a lot cooler than I actually am! It also seemed like a nice place to read/get some work done. The menu is really varied -- a lot of different cuisines. It took me a bit to order but staff were patient and friendly. I ordered the mushroom shawarma pita and an açaí bowl. The bowl was delicious! They have their own smoothie bar that's separate from the rest of the kitchen and was served quickly. The mushroom shawarma pita was a bit disappointing. The flavors were good, but it was layered poorly, with all of the mushroom at the top of the pita, making for inconsistent bites. The sauces themselves seemed delicious. I would definitely come back to try different things!

Our orders were taken and prepared…read morerelatively quickly, but it was pretty disorganized getting our order with all the other customers crowding the pickup counter and the loud music making it hard to hear when your name is called. I got the Dragonberry pitaya bowl, which was topped with a good portion of delicious honey, granola, and fresh blueberries and strawberry slices. The mix itself was more slushy/icy in texture than expected, but still delicious in flavors. I would come back again if I was in the area and craving smoothie bowls.

Absolutely delicious and looks pretty too! -Dragonberry Bowl: pink pitaya base topped with blueberry, strawberry, granola and a drizzle of honey. (Pro tip; ask for granola on the side if don't want it to get soggy) -Stupid Cupid Bowl: stupid Cupid base with strawberries, coconut flakes, granola, cacao nibs, and white chocolate. I'm very picky on my smoothie spots because I expect consistency if I'm spending close to $10 on a drink and playa bowls hasn't failed me. Highly recommend!

Their açaí bowls are great quality, and topped with my personal favorites like granola, banana, strawberries, condensed milk, milk powder, and a peanut candy (pacoquita). Whether you're looking for a healthy breakfast, post-workout snack, or a refreshing treat on a hot day, this place delivers. Also, for those who are into the Dubai Chocolate trend, there's an acai bowl Dedicated to that flavor. Aiming to order that next time. They also have savory & sweet snacks (ie Brazilian tapioca which looks kind of like a crepe or thin pancake with filling), Pão de queijo cheese breads and more. Everything is made fresh to order, service is quick & nice. You can also order from kiosk. Seating is available Located near the arts armory center, and near green line extension, and street parking is generally available.

I was shocked by how great the portion was! Although I didn't end up needing a cup...I would recommend getting one on the side :)

They both also came with plantain chips. Really like how creative this place is with their unique ingredients in dishes that can otherwise be pretty simple. For dessert, we had a 5-pack of vegan chocolate chip cookies. These were warm, delicious and homemade. They hit the spot. The best test though? I didn't feel gross or overly full after eating this food. It felt very fresh and healthy. Until I get the chance to visit this place in person, I'll continue to order delivery from it! Highly recommend if you are in the mood for some good healthy food.

They have Asian and Middle Eastern flavours while keeping their core value of healthy food. The prices are also very decent, you can get a meal for around $15. The space in Davis square is next to a parking lot (paid) but convenient so you don't have to find street parking. There is ample space inside to socialize or dine solo. The vibes are very hipster, as any place in Somerville. You order first, then take a seat with the table number. They then bring the food to you. I got bibimbap and was pleasantly surprised at how flavourful it was. Definitely will keep this in rotation for a lunch / casual date.
