Boston,
MA

JFK/UMass red line T stop
Boston,
MA
02228
Jeremy K. writes: This trolley stop located on the Red Line isn't as bad as most MBTA stops on the same line. First off, we could be waiting outside in the heat of summer or the coldness of winter on the platforms if it weren't for this little ingenious light system…

1815 Massachusetts Ave
Cambridge,
MA

Cassidy P. writes: My four star rating is for one particular "inside out" roll that I adore--the special spicy, flaky tuna roll. It's sort of like a spicy tuna roll, except it has tempura flakes on top of it! Yum! My friend Meghan calls it "sushi fast food"--so…

Brookline,
MA

Brighton,
MA

Mary C. writes: Oh. My. GOD. I LOOOOOVE this place. It's my failsafe Sunday place. The western omlette is the best and the waitstaff knows you after 2 or 3 visits. My only beef is with the schoolyear influx of douchebags. I don't want to watch your awkward…

122 Bowdoin St
Boston,
MA

1099 Dorchester Ave
Dorchester,
MA
02125
Jeffrey H. writes: This was the absolute cure for the fact I hadn't eaten in 36 hours. I guess work, interning, tanning, primping, and drinking take up a lot of time on my Fridays--so much so that I don't remember to eat until my stomach starts picking at my vital…
