Waypoint remains one of my favorite spots in Cambridge- the ambience is casual enough for a regular dinner but also vibey enough for a date night or an occasion! The food is excellent, love the smoked shrimp, the hamachi crudo, and their pizzas and flatbread are also excellent! Their $2 daily oyster special is also excellent. The uni bucatini did taste different from the first time I had tried it and was saltier, which is the only critique I had of the meal. Overall I leave each time planning my next visit, a must try if you ask me! Food: 4.5/5 Price: 4/5 Ambience: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 read more

This is the weirdest place. It's a seafood place that specializes in pizza. I can only assume that's because pizza is extremely cheap to make and it makes you leave satisfied because all their other dishes are stingy as heck. The fish is fine it's nothing spectacular but the prices are exactly what you'd expect for the area. If you can find something on the menu for less than $20, you...I mean you're not eating at Waypoint. I like the look of the place but it's kind of like they put a classy cover on a kind of ordinary place. Service is nice but kind of confused and slow. The vibe is kind of brightly lit New England chic. Not quite old money but not quite new. Not really sure how to categorize this place but it ain't great. read more

My friend and I went on a Friday night because the place looked really cool, and overall the experience was okay! We split the thai sausage dumplings, the warm burrata crostino, the uni bucatini, and some oysters (missed the $1special). The food was flavorful and good! The service was very slow but our server was very nice. We spent most of our time at the restaurant waiting- we were there for over two hours. I'm not sure I'd come back but the food makes it worth trying at least once! read more

Came here yesterday and really enjoyed the food. The $1 oysters were great, some were very small but hey for $1 I'll take it. The clam pizza was amazing and so garlicky and delicious. I definitely recommend. We also got the Caesar sold which was a great sharing portion, but sadly found a hair in ours. Other than that, service was great. Our waiter was very attentive. Also they randomly had one of the best espresso martinis I've ever had! Despite finding that hair, I'd still return for another try. read more

Waypoint in Cambridge, MA pulled off the kind of last-minute magic I honestly didn't think would happen. I snagged a same-day res. for my kid and me, expecting a 'no' or 'sorry, we're booked'. So when the host asked if it's ok to be seated at the bar, my first thought was: A counter bar with a ridiculous lip that'll make us hunch our shoulders just to take a bite. Nope. Not here. The counter here actually turned out to be the best seat in the place because it has a wonderful spot-on, table-to-chair height which felt just right. The clean, open kitchen right in front of us, was like a live cooking show! From there, the meal just kept hitting. The seafood was on point, the mushroom pie was way better than I thought and the service was warm without hovering. We had way more fun at the counter than we ever would've had at a regular table that night. Our evening felt cozy, a little chaotic (with excitement) in all the right ways and just a genuinely great night out just my kid and I. read more

A solid restaurant just minutes away from Harvard Square. They served delicious fresh oysters from various regions, we loved the Wellfleet. Entrees were delicious. Highlights included the crab & angel hair, it was balanced perfectly with a little acidity, and the clam pizza, which they didn't skimp out on the seafood toppings. The food quality was excellent. Service was a little slow, considering it was a weekday dinner. We could've used a little more attention from the waitress during ordering and checkout. Overall a great meal, we'd return because the food tasted really good. read more

Love the clam pizza & the uni bucatini! We come here all the time and typically sit at the bar. They recently changed the $1 dollar oysters to $2. I've always enjoyed the oysters and they are fresh!! We have also had the burger many times (subbed in Caesar salad for fries). The other apps and dishes are good but we typically rotate between the pizza, pasta, and tuna/salmon apps. read more

Waypoint was quite busy on Friday evening, so we were lucky to have booked a reservation ahead of time. The restaurant is very modern and has a huge oyster bar in the center, which was fun to watch them hard at work. The food was incredible - my salmon was a really well balanced dish with incredible flavors from the crispy salmon itself, balanced with the creamy cici beans (almost like a smoother mashed potato), and a salad that added a great citrus and freshness to the dish. I would certainly come back for this dish in a heartbeat. The jonah crab and angel hair pasta was also good, but the salmon was definitely the star. I'd recommend going with this uni bucatini as a pasta dish over the angel hair, but all of the food here was good. We didn't actually get any oysters which is probably one of our biggest mistakes. I hope to come back here soon for some! read more

Service was fine. Ambiance was nice. Some of the booths looked like they needed a makeover. The booth we were seated at had the seat peeling. Which was a huge contrast to the rest of the atmosphere of the restaurant. Took my dad here for his 70th birthday and the food was a letdown. Salt cod croquettes - they were fine. Nothing to complain or praise. Anchor Caesar salad - it's a Caesar salad not much to innovate or screw up. Roasted butternut squash - probably one of the more flavorful items that we ordered. Jonah crab and Angel Hair - biggest let down. The angel hair pasta was overcooked and the sauce was watery. Couldn't tell you if there was actually crab in it. More guanciale than any other flavor when there was flavor. Don't order. It was such a waste. Uni Bucatini - after the disappointing crab pasta anything else seemed flavorful. Again the pasta was overcooked and soggy. The Uni flavor did not come out. It was over powered by the salted egg more than anything else. No one asked if we enjoyed the food. We did not. Overall if you're just looking for a vibe, come here. read more

Went to Waypoint on a Tuesday evening with a few other coworkers. It was my first time here. Food: 7/10 Food was decent. We shared the Crispy Brussel Sprouts, the Mushroom pizza and the Smoked shrimp. Everyone at our table got at least 4 $1 oysters each person. The oysters tasted fresh and yummy! They have $1 oysters from 5-7pm and we were there at 6pm so that was perfect. All of our dishes were good. Brussel sprouts were too greasy for me; however, I understand that's the nature of fried brussel sprouts. I ordered the Whole branzino and shared with another person and that portion was huge! Presentation was nice and the green sauce was a nice touch, although my friend didn't really like the sauce so I guess it maybe an acquired taste. The flavors of the smoked shrimp were not super unique, although they were still good regardless. Overall, what we got was good, but I wish they had more salads or appetizer options other than the raw bar. Ambience and Service: 8/10 We received good service and the ambience was nice that evening. Not too loud but not too quiet. Location: 7/10 Challenging for parking if you come by car but if you take the T, Harvard station is about 10' walk from the place. The area is quite nice to walk around. Overall, decent place for being near Harvard. Pricing is on par with surrounding restaurants. If you are in the area and would like to try seafood, I'd recommend. They don't have a huge menu though, so if you look for something seafood specific you may want to check out the menu first! read more

I love this place. Best happy oysters in Boston. They used to be $1 but I ate so many last time I was there I think they raised it because of me to $2. But these are not $2 oysters they are four to five dollar oysters. The rest of the menu is great too everything's fresh and there's a really great vibe with the people that work there. I've said at the bar three times and the bartenders and bar backs are just a lot of fun. Great place to go after work or after school read more

I came here expecting a standard pricey small plates spot, but Waypoint far exceeded my expectations with unique flavors and generous portion sizes. We came here on a Saturday night with a reservation and were seated promptly. Our server was the perfect amount of attentive but not intrusive, checking in on us a good amount and refilling our waters. For the food: Oysters - sadly, we didn't make it in time for the $1 oysters, but these were fresh and delicious nonetheless. Plus, there's an oyster bar near the front if you want to watch your plate being assembled in real time. Would recommend. Fried Brussels sprouts - the standout dish of the night. These were cooked to the perfect crispiness on the outside, while remaining hearty on the inside. The fish sauce vinaigrette and lime were the perfect flavor combination and evenly spread throughout. We loved it so much that we ordered another portion. Would recommend. Fish and chips - our second favorite dish of the night. The portion size of this was HUGE. In fact, we ordered a different cod dish and there was 3 times as much cod in our fish and chips than in that. The fries could have been crispier, but the breading on the fish itself was fantastic, as were the ketchup and tartar sauces offered for dipping. Would recommend. Shrimp and pork dumplings - soft, tender, and flavorful both with and without the provided dipping sauces (soy sauce and chili oil). Not a must-get, but we didn't regret getting it either. Would recommend if you're in the mood for dumplings. Grilled broccolini - another fantastic vegetable dish. The rest of the table found it not too special, but I really enjoyed the aioli and crispy rice pieces mixed in to change up the texture. Would recommend. Smoked shrimp - another dish the table was divided on. The buttery tomato sauce tastes very strongly of tomato. IMO, the sauce and shrimp preparation weren't that special. Others chose it as one of their top dishes of the night. Would recommend you try for yourself and see. Pan seared Cod - cooked successfully, but not anything special compared to the other dishes we had. Not great value compared to the fish and chips. Would skip. Overall, we found the food here to be really flavorful and delicious. The ambiance is definitely upscale seafood restaurant with an open oyster shucking stand and open kitchen setup. The absolute standouts of the night were the Brussels sprouts and fish and chips --I would come back for those alone and to try the $1 oyster happy hour. This might be my new neighborhood favorite! read more

Disappointment. Oysters were fire. The toilet seat gripped my cheeks like a solitary man grips his pillow; just... holding... on... Ordered the orange wine. Looked like dehydrated piss... tasted like hydrated piss. Great job. Here I lay, 5 minutes till close... twiddling my fingers, waiting for the medium raresteak that I ordered 2 hours ago. As always... happy holidays and happy eating! Cheels, Sheliot read more

Food was excellent! Kudos to the chef for creating and preparing such delicious dishes. 1. We ordered 3 different pastas - Uni bucatini, Jonah crab & angel hair, and the Lobster Cacio E Pepe. Magnificent taste, sauce, and fresh pasta! 2. Two pizzas - Smoked whitefish and Chopped Clam. Delicious flavors. Didn't smell or taste "fishy". The pizza crust was delicious...no flop on the slices. 3. Soft shell crab appetizer: well seasoned and prepared 4. WP Fish & Chips: HUGE portion of fish and plentiful chips. Comes with a tartar sauce and ketchup. But...despite the excellent food, the entire experience was practically ruined by the terrible service and dining experience that our party of 8 had. We came on a Tuesday evening and the restaurant was not busy at all so I do not think that our party was overwhelming for the staff scheduled that evening. Our server was very standoffish and had a bit of a smug demeanor. Rather than talk us through any drink and food options, he decided to just proceed to take whatever orders from anyone in our group. He also told us that the food would just come out as soon as they're prepared, rather than asking us how we might want it coursed or at the order to send them out. What is a little frustrating is that he could have asked or at least noticed that we ordered as a group to share the selections "family style". As a result we had pasta dishes come out before the crab appetizer and pizzas, etc. He was also not very attentive with our beverages either. When one person in our group asked for a glass of water, he just pointed down to the other end of the table and said, "That looks like yours." Which would have been fine except the glass had clearly been sipped. It's a bit rude to to just not go and grab another clean full glass of water. We also had members of our party who ordered soft drinks and not once during our meal did he come by to ask if we wanted a refill or order any other beverages. The final piece of poor service came at the end of the meal as we were getting ready to settle our bill. Now I know restaurants don't like or have to do any accommodations to split our bill in any number of ways, and we weren't planning to split any more than 2-3 cards anyway. However, the servers first words were "I'm not going to split it 8 ways." Without even just politely asking us first how many cards we were going to think of using. Aside from the server, we noticed that almost every other employee working this evening looked miserable, disengaged, or downright angry or depressed looking. Not quite the ambiance to enjoy a relatively pricey dinner. I LOVED the food here, but with the less than enjoyable experience I really cannot recommend anyone I know to come check this place out. To be honest, our party felt like we couldn't get the heck out of there any faster. read more

Waypoint: Cambridge's Hidden Gem Nestled in the heart of Cambridge, Waypoint is the kind of restaurant that feels like a best-kept secret--except it absolutely deserves the spotlight. A sister to Alden & Harlow, this place is so good, with an incredible menu that highlights bold flavors and fresh seafood. And let's talk about the cocktail program--just as phenomenal as its sister spot, Longfellow Bar, with a creative lineup that never disappoints. A huge shoutout to GM Eric Brand, whose hospitality and attention to detail make every visit feel special. You can tell the place runs smoothly because of his leadership. Favorites from the menu? HIRAMASA - A perfect bite of sashimi with sesame-umami brittle, jalapeño, and shoyu syrup. A must-order starter. HICKORY SMOKED SHRIMP - Served with rich tomato butter, garlic, and focaccia. The ultimate umami bomb. LOBSTER CACIO E PEPE - A luxurious take on the classic, featuring whole wheat pasta, koji butter, and pecorino. Rich, creamy, and absolutely indulgent. UNI BUCATINI - Smoked egg yolk, pecorino, and bottarga give this dish the perfect balance of briny, creamy, and savory. And for the best sweet ending? The EVOO cake with blueberries--somehow both rich and light, the perfect way to wrap up an unforgettable meal. Already thinking about my next visit. If you haven't been yet, what are you waiting for? read more

Came a couple of times for their $1 oysters from 5-7pm on weekdays. I've been to a couple of places around Cambridge for $1 oysters and I think Waypoint has the BEST and the meatiest ones.

Made reservations for a group of eight on a Saturday night and had a lovely time. It was pretty full, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation. They have tables of all different sizes, as well as seats at the bar. The atmosphere is lively, but not too loud. Our server was friendly and attentive, and our waters never went empty. Each couple ordered their own dishes, but we got the Flatbread and Brussel Sprouts as a group. My partner and I shared the Fish and Chips, Hamachi Crudo, and Crab Angle Hair Pasta. We also tried their mocktails, which we enjoyed. We underestimated how large the portions would be, so I wouldn't recommend ordering more than three plates for two people. Each dish was enjoyable, flavorful, and had good textures. Overall, it's definitely not a cheap meal, but a good place to visit for any occasion for quality seafood. read more

This is the spot my newly wedded friend chose to have her wedding reception at. It was absolutely wonderful! The restaurant is relatively small and intimate. There was an open bar with several excellent craft cocktails available.

We came in today with 5 of us for Mother's Day brunch; it was a 3-course pre fixe menu for $49. The food was quite good, and portions were very generous. For the first course we tried the Caesar salad and the Hash brown topped w/ smoked fish salad and smoked trout roe (very good). For the entree we had the Uni Bucatini topped w/ egg yolk - really creamy and delicious, their famous burger, and the Steak and eggs Benedict. All good. Then for dessert the rhubarb and strawberry Crostata topped w/ ginger ice cream and basil. Wow. Only downside was the slow service. We told them right when we arrived at 11 that we needed to leave by 12:30 to catch a plane, and the first course didn't arrive until an hour later, the entree half hour after that at 12:30, and dessert at 12:40, so had only a few moments to scarf our dessert and get out 15 minutes late. So stressful, but overall a nice Mother's Day meal. read more

Came on a Saturday afternoon for dollar oysters. I can't find the hours for dollar oysters anywhere online so I called and found out for anyone who's curious: Thursday - Sunday: 5-7pm BUT on Friday and Saturday the oysters are bar-seats only and first come first serve. I recommend showing up latest around 6p (at least on Saturday). I've been here with friends a couple times, and I've ordered the uni bucatini and Jonah crab angel hair. Both pasta tasted great, and good portions. Pros: - Great cocktails and bartenders - Good service -- you may feel less attended or that service is significantly slower when it's super busy - Dollar oysters are great quality, very worth-it - I like the decor and space it self, modern and kinda fancy. Very clean Cons: - Regular food are a tad expensive, but great quality - Space can feel a little crowded at times (can get loud) read more

rude rude rude!!! we got there without a reservation and the restaurant was only 30% full. they said they couldn't serve us because there were reservations....which was fine until we went out to try to find another place and they came in and said they could seat our party at a corner table. they stuffed 9 of us into a small booth. however the entire dinner, the restaurant barely filled up and there was plenty of space for us!! they never came around to fill our waters or ask if we needed anything else. don't know why we were judged - we got more than just hh dollar oysters but their loss because we won't be coming back after this..... read more

Came here on a Thursday evening with reservations, but for a weekday, I'm guessing they're not necessary. The place is very large and only I would say 1/4 of it filled up throughout the course of our meal - you could definitely just walk in without any issues! Our server was pretty attentive and efficient with serving us. There was only one period where she was nowhere to be found ( when we were ready for the check ), but otherwise we had a good experience with service. We originally came to try primarily their dollar oysters and they didn't disappoint. Definitely very flavorful and quite delicious with a great medley of sauces and flavors to go alongside them. The oysters themselves were well shucked and tasty - I would definitely come back just for the oysters alone! The rest of their menu was pretty pricy, but the quality was decent. I would say it didn't outweigh the price, but as it was a birthday meal for us, we were ready to splurge anyway. We got the full branzino which was pretty fantastic - good flavor, nice vegetables that came with it - and the chopped clam pizza. This was really flavorful and came with a good amount of clam so it was pretty nice, just a little sad that it was $6 more than the Yelp listed price! We got a cute honey, granola dessert to end and our server insisted on giving it to us with a candle. The dessert itself was the most unique in my mind, but the granola is smoked and I found the smokiness a little too strong for my liking. I enjoyed the creamy part of the dessert though and overall found it to be a nice end to our meal. Overall, I enjoyed my time here and would love to return, especially for their oysters. Thanks, Waypoint! read more

Obsessed with this place! The chef here is the same one behind Alden & Harlow/Longfellow bar in Harvard square, and boy do they know their way around a menu. Great space, impressive cocktails, and even better food! The restaurant itself is really cool, lots of funky light fixtures, neon signs, tables at different heights scattered around, and an open kitchen against that back wall, which I always love. For cocktails, I tried a fall margarita with fig, tequila, and lots of yummy spices. It's not listed on the website at the moment so I can't recall the name, but it's worth a try if you're lucky enough to visit while they're offering it. Our group also had some craft beers from their local selection and some dirty vodka martinis that were really nicely done too. The menu here has a little bit of everything, but the seafood offerings are the real star of the show if you ask me. We ordered a dozen oysters to start, which included 3 different varieties, all of which were so delicious. From there, we decided to split 3 entrees between the 4 of us, which I would highly recommend so you can try a little bit of everything. The steak frites and uni bucatini were both unreal - if you like uni, that one is a can't miss. The illadelphia pizza was also very good, but not quite as special as the other two. Surprise show stopper: the side of Brussels sprouts. They have a fish sauce vinaigrette and lime that make them super unique and so crushable, we had no problem finishing off the huge portion. I love this place every time I visit and am always recommending it to people when they're looking for a spot in Cambridge. Great for dates nights or impressing out of town visitors! read more

We were looking for some fresh seafood and managed to get a last minute reservation at Waypoint. We were very pleasantly surprised both by the innovative and fresh food as well as the lively atmosphere just down the road from Harvard Square. The hamachi and jalapeño was particularly nice with good bite. The tuna tostado was solid but a bit tough to share because of the single crispy tostado. The brussel sprouts in fish sauce were delicious. The skillet salmon was solid. The squash and burrata was a really nice twist on more traditional burrata presentations. The flatbread we added to round out the meal was a huge hit. My only complaint (1 star discount) was the specialty cocktails were not great - not overly flavorful, a bit watered down, not much in the way of presentation. Maybe stick to wine and beer. Every table was filled and having a good time on a Saturday night. But the room is big an airy; it never got loud or uncomfortable. The service staff did a nice job of keeping tabs on us even if our primary server was busy. Next time I will bring a bigger appetite. read more

Came here for a company dinner. We had a group of around 10 and we had an okay experience here. The appetizers were the highlight of the meal. My favorite thing we had that night was the Bluefin Tuna Crudo. The tuna melted in your mouth and paired well with the zesty lime and refreshing cucumber. The dollar oysters were also good- they tasted fresh and not fishy, and came with plenty of different sauces/condiments to try with. The bay scallop crudo was also delicious and refreshing. The scallops weren't fishy at all, and the sweet, citrusy flavor provided by the orange slices in the dish were a unique touch. The main course was not as good as the appetizers. We ended up getting the Uni bucatini, the Seared cod cheeks, the Steak frites, the Lobster cacio e pepe, and the Caesar salad. The Uni bucatini was probably the most-liked dish out of everyone on the team. Every dish, however, was way too peppery for our tastes. It felt like there was someone taking a massive pepper grinder and dousing our food with black pepper before they served it to us! Our main courses could have been a lot better if it weren't for the overwhelming taste of black pepper; We also ordered drinks for the whole team. The Frequent Flier was pretty good, and my coworker liked her absinthe-based drink, The Fellow. However, the champagne we received was flat and the wine was only okay. This place is...okay. Decent experience but nothing special. A little too pricey for me to come back... except for the dollar oysters! read more

The food and drinks were decent. The service was awful. I felt like I was inconveniencing the staff by eating there...and I do not have particularly high standards and we had no out of the ordinary requests. Maybe it was our particular server but he never said hello and just walked up to our table and said "drinks?" He was cold and unfriendly, never checked in on us after our food was served, never asked if we wanted more drinks or needed anything and, once our dinner was finished and we were waiting to be offered a dessert menu, he asked me "so...do you think you're done here?" I wouldn't say any of the other staff (servers, bussers, host) were much friendlier. The whole experience put a bad taste in my mouth and I won't be returning. read more

Dropped by Waypoint for an early Friday dinner. We were initially seated at a tight two-person table between two other tables and under an air vent, but given there were lots of open tables, the host was kind enough to move us to a booth. We started with raw oysters (from NY) which were pretty good, though a bit brinier than expected. The absolute star of the evening was the Jonah crab and angel hair pasta -- punchy lemon flavor, perfectly cooked pasta, and a delicious topping of crab and jalapeños. We also got the fried fish sandwich with fries, which was good but not spectacular. Our server was nice / attentive and it was a great overall experience! Food: 1. Raw Oysters (4/5) 2.

Came to Waypoint for dinner recently and can't wait to be back at this Cambridge spot! Everything was so delicious. We started with the bread and butter plate, which was the perfect appetizer. The pasta dishes we ordered were phenomenal. I had the uni bucatini and it's honestly one of the best pasta dishes I've had. Glad we left room for dessert because the donuts and cobbler were just the right amount of sweet and the best end to the meal. The restaurant has a great vibe and super friendly staff.

Excellent happy hour deal! My friends and I came just in time to catch the $1 oysters. Unfortunately, we weren't able to order as many as we would have liked, but we were able to eat more than enough. Most of the oysters were extremely fresh and delicious, especially paired with the various sauces and lemon juice it comes with. Unfortunately, there were a few oysters that didn't taste quite as fresh, but for the quantity we got, I was quite impressed. The other food was just as good. We ordered the Jonah Blue crab and angel hair pasta, the uni bucatini pasta, the brussel sprouts, and a pizza. The standouts were definitely the uni bucatini and the jonah blue and angel hair pastas. They were both so full of flavor and perfectly cooked. It was quite busy given the time we went, but our server took excellent care of us the entire night. Looking forward to my next visit! read more

Great value seafood. We started with fresh New York oysters with a crisp horseradish. The crab angel hair was one of the best pasta dishes I've had in a year. Perfectly cooked with just the right amount of lemon. The fish sandwich was a bit over breaded and didn't put enough focus enough on the fish. Service was exceptional and the host kindly moved us to a booth when our original table was right under the air duct. Great date night spot! 1. New York oysters - 4/5 2. Crab angel hair - 5/5 3.

We went for an early NYE dinner and the service was great. Quick and efficient. The drinks and ambiance were also perfect to get us in the new year mood (Highly recommend the Gin Runner). The food was really hit or miss though. The hits: Oysters were delicious - they need to bottle the hot sauce served with it and sell it because it was delicious. On NYE special they had A5 yakitori skewers and it honestly could have been the best bite of the year for me. It had an incredible celery root slaw, I'm still thinking about it Now the misses: Crab pasta and whitefish pizza. I wanted to love these so much because they were so unique and they had great elements in them to balance the flavors like the jalapeño in the pasta. They were just way too salty for my taste. read more

First time in Cambridge, first meal while here. Most seating is hightop---not my preference, but fine. On a Wednesday night, we had to wait 40 minutes to be seated because of our larger party size of 5. Had we been 4, we could have been seated right away. We were able to sit together and order an appetizer at the bar while we waited for our table to open up. At the bar, we ordered the crab fries upon recommendation from colleagues/friends. They were fine, but a ton of fries with just a dollop of the crab sauce In a dipping dish on the side. We all sort of expected something more like a poutine. Nope. For my entree I got the pizza with the pepperoni on it (Illadelphia, I think it's called). It was quite good, especially the pepperoni. The crust was a thicker thin, chewy and light like a very good bread. I also tried a friend's Brussels sprouts, which I worried about a bit because of the fish sauce.
