1154 Massachusetts Ave
Cambridge, MA 02138

Michelle K. writes: Mmmm Mmm Good. This place has delicious crepes but falls short in key areas.

3 Harvard Ave
Allston, MA 02134

Murray B. writes: I've only been there once and I wasn't impressed. The 'bartender' kept leaving for 20-30 minutes at a time. My empty glass and I got very lonely.

284 Newbury St
Boston, MA 02115

Paris Creperie
Neighborhood: Beacon Hill

326 Cambridge St
Boston, MA 02114

Ali E. writes: Unfortunately there are few places in Beacon Hill to go and sit and read with a latte that doesn't cost 6 dollars. I love this place just because it's not Starbucks, and you can chill on the couches in the sun for hours.

David d. writes: I don't eat fish, so it's going to be hard to BITCH about this place.

Ninety-Nine Restaurant

59 Newport Ave
Quincy, MA 02171

J .. writes: Gonna be honest- most times when I end up at the 99, it's because i'm in the area and smell the steaks cooking from outside the restaurant. Consequently, dropping off a video at the next-door Hollywood Video is dangerous. That aside, the 99 is hit or…

Orleans Restaurant and Bar
Neighborhood: Davis Square

65 Holland Street
Somerville, MA 02144

Damien S. writes: Orleans gets a lot of flack. Folks who go once may see it as pretentious, out-of-place or confused in its identity. And it is, sorta.
