Ok so I came back here the very next day with more people. Go here!!
Any mexican place that serves vegetarian refried beans is good in my book. The portions were huge and they didnt shy on using different veggies (they did not serve squash and zucchini mix that I hate at most of the fake mexican restaurants)
For the very first time though I found and tried Chilaquilles. If this is truly a breakfast food in Latin America then I'm set on where I'd like live my next life!
Nachos smothered in scrambled eggs, cheese and enchilada sauce.
Imagine that taste now just for a few minutes and you'll also probably be craving it right now like I am.
It's also right on the water so a great spot for tourists as well.

Ok, first off - Thank you Max Brenner for coming to Boston.
This is a mandatory stop for any NYC trip I've ever made. We went to this one on a Sunday afternoon around 2 p.m. for an afternoon pig out. We had the guava and mango mojitos which were pretty tasty; not like the bad ones you get where its got some color to it but not really flavored at all.
The milk chocolate granita was next and was actually better than the ones I've had in NYC. The ones there are usually more frozen but the one we had was just right and easier to drink out of the straws.
Also, I think our waiter was stoned but he was pretty friendly so I wont be judging.
Anyways, portions were great, price was right and overall a great place to go with friends over some fun food to hang out. I may go again tomorrow now that I think about it.

Ok, best sushi in SF from what I've had so far and the drinks (mojitos) were pretty darn good. I custom ordered a sweet potato tempura and cream cheese roll with jalapenos and holy crap it was the best thing I've ever eaten. The tempura was perfectly warm and crisped and the sticky rice and cream cheese were fresh out of the fridge.
Let's just say it was the perfect taste and texture.
Small note, I liked this one much better than the one in Mountain View which wouldn't custom make it for me. The staff at the Market St. were also much nicer

Food was good, they warm up some of the pastries at your request. I had the mushroom turnover but it seemed a little sparse on mushrooms so after a while I felt like I was just eating the bread.
The family that runs it was really nice and I wouldn't mind trying it again with something different.

Expensive for what they're trying to play off in a nightclub. $10 for a drink that's in a water fountain cup is a joke.
For those prices, I'd rather go to Alibi and Clink for a real good night out.

Alright so I had their Spinach and Roasted Mushroom Sicilian Pizza there and (yes i was pigging out) also had their Gnocchi with Alfredo sauce.
The mushrooms were really tasty on the pizza and their tomato sauce had the perfect amount of tangyness. The crust was pretty good too, it didnt seem like normal white crust rather a wheat type of crust. (The had a sign up saying they had gluten free pizzas) though I'm not sure if mine was such.
The Gnocci was pretty good, really tasty and the consistency of the Gnocchi was pretty good all around, dare I say potentially better than Strega in the North End? Though I probably should have stuck to the tomato sauce option rather than the Alfredo sauce. I'd definitely recommend this for anyone passing by the area.

Like any American uncultured in Japanese food, I've grown up eating Maruchen Instant Ramen Noodles. Being vegetarian limited the ones that I could eat even further.
Shalala was like taking classes on Japanese food culture and their vegetarian options were pretty good at that too. Thanks to Shalala for giving me the first real bowl of vegetarian Ramen. It had a great variety of vegetables, some really tasty noodles and the broth was so good I had to finish every last drop of it/
Ah, they had 20 oz. Sapporos to go down with it - going back here next time I'm in the Bay Area!

Went there for a birthday, food is about as awful as the nachos at your local movie theater, but the drinks were really good and holy hell it was cheap!

The good: The Mojixo was good and fairly strong too. We also had the Alotes a la Parilla which were basically corn smothered in aioli. This was pretty darn good. The food was priced right, three of us had a total bill of about $60 with three meals, two appetizers and one drink.
The bad: The guacamole was made on the spot, kind of like rosa mexicano but even though we asked for the spiciest, it was about as bland as a glass of water. The vegetarian meals were all filled with the "standard" veggies Carrots, Squash and Zucchini - blech. My friend had the fish tacos but found it wasn't cooked properly, he was only able to eat two of the three tacos.
Not sure I'd return unless it was for the drinks

Props to any restaurant that can make me sweat while eating, I'd highly recommend this to anyone in the area. Also be sure to grab a bottle of Thumsup if you're daring enough.
Staff was friendly and the crowd was pretty nice, most people who lived in the area that seemed to be grabbing a bite to eat after work.
