Great friendly service and some of the best hommade hummus I've ever had. A true gem in the South End.

Made a reservation prior to arriving this past Saturday for dinner. It was a good idea given there was a bit of a wait and we were able to walk right in. The staff was friendly and the food was really good. My girlfriend and I remarked at how salt and pepper were NOT necessary and everything was appropriately seasoned. I'll definitely come back for a visit when I'm in town. The question is, will I go for the steak frites again or temp my palate with another delicious item...This place was great for all ages and also had a great vibe to it.

Amazing Gelato. Amazing rich and creamy flavors and open late! Yes, it was expensive, but some things in life are well worth paying for. Visited on Saturday night after getting the recommendation from a friend. I'm glad we made it. It was the perfect end to a perfect evening.

I had a few minutes before dinner to get my hair cut and stopped in. I was greeted by Lisa and shown to my chair. She mentioned that she'd take a few notes on what I wanted and input it into the computer for future reference. Pretty cool. I found her to be very friendly and professional and I'm happy with my haircut. Will definitely go back and this time with a PruCard as it's almost half off the price!

It's not often that something happens that blows you away and makes you think for a minute. When I went here last week with a co-worker to buy something we didn't have enough cash on us and the credit card machine was down for end of day processing. Instead of telling us that we couldn't buy food, we were told to come back and pay the next day. The amount was written down on a piece of paper and we were told that "the people that work in this neighborhood are good people that you can trust". I have never experienced this sort of service before. My faith in humanity is restored! I'm definitely a loyal customer and really pleased with my experiences so far. A great place for a hearty meal or quick bite to eat.

By the way, we did go back and pay the next day...

I went in last Friday to get a massage with the hope of getting rid of some back pain. I was surprised that I could get an appointment with such short notice and was able to make it in at the end of the day. I met with Po and got an hour massage. This was an intense massage but one of the best that I've ever received. The whole place is very professional and she was thorough. I'll definitely go back in the future and look into their packages.

Rainbow Cafe - CLOSED

Category: Chinese
Neighborhood: Chinatown

Update - 1/7/2011

This is my FAVORITE place in Chinatown. I used to eat lunch here all the time when I worked in Dowtown Crossing. Today I had opportunity to have lunch here on my way back from a meeting after what's probably been over 4 years. I was amazed, the owner remembered me and said she hadn't seen me in a while. Crazy! The food of course was as amazing as I had remembered. First time here? Chicken with garlic sauce all the way. The service was also amazing. I always feel like I am visiting a friend when I eat here.

I love this place. I'm sad that I haven't gone in a long time. I used to work downtown and Chinese on Friday was a tradition. One day when we decided to change restaurants we found this gem of Boston! It's not a big place, but where it lacks in size it makes up in quality.

It's been mentioned before, but the service and friendless of the staff is amazing. The same woman took care of us each time we went there and offered to make us special dishes if the menu didn't suit us. She even remembered what we ordered regularly after the second week!

I recommend the garlic chicken. This is a great place to go for a lunch at a great price with great service. I almost didn't want to post anything about this restaurant so I could keep it all to my self. I'm sure there will be many more reviews pointing out how great the Rainbow Cafe is.

Teranga

Neighborhood: South End

1/4/2011 4 photos

When I moved to the South End over 5 years ago I couldn't have guessed how lucky I would be with all of the restaurant choices there are today. Teranga is another example of great food and service. They've made it through some of the opening headaches such as timing and consistency issues that I experienced during my first couple of visits. I really love the Yucca fries, the Kibbe (sp?) and the bread and oil dip that is given before the meal.

This place is rather small which is nice as it feels more homey. Great friendly service which isn't stuffy. I imagine this would be a great place for an after work party or get together with friends.

Laz Cafe

Category: Pizza
Neighborhood: South End

Update - 1/4/2011

Really great lunch special with Pizza (it has gotten way better). The service is really friendly and quick. I go here about once a week as I live and work right around the corner. It's always nice to have a neighborhood place with great decent and well priced food.

I live right around the corner from this place so it's a good place for me when I'm feeling lazy. I admit the pizza is not the best and a bit greasy although I recommend the BBQ tips dinner. It's a great value and tastes really good.

The guys that work here are very friendly and you can strike up a conversation with some of them when they aren't too busy. They must made bank to be able to afford the massive plasma TV that they mounted on the wall during their recent renovations.

I've been here twice. Overall I find the place energetic and fairly welcoming. The whole gatekeeper at the door thing was a bit off putting. The back bars are not THAT crowded. The food and drinks here are pretty good. I'd recommend this place for groups small or large. I hope I get to go back soon.
