    Tried here to entertain a friend who is vegetarian. It was an excellent choice My guest had the Ceasar Salad and they had no trouble leaving out the bacon pieces. I had the smoked fish starter which was excellent. IMO it did not need the crackers the came with it. We moved on to mains of wild mushrooms - great tastes and very filling for me, and Mujadara. All good. Rare for me to try a dessert but the notion of a bitter peach ice cream was too tempting - loved it. Love a place that offers decent gin. This ticked the box. Modest decor. Good ambience. Easy to hold a conversation. I would certainly visit again.

    The tasting menu was creative, but a touch simple for the price. The menu and the service left much to be desired.

    My wife and I love farm to table restaurants so we were looking forward to trying Forage. The food was good but the menu is very limitted. In addition, the table next to us ordered some of the same dishes and got somewhat different things than we did. Service is top notch, though and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Check out the pickle sampler and onion roll starters. They were great. We also recommend the hangar steak. I’m torn between a four and five start rating but I’m going with four because of the very limited menu. A couple more main course options and this would be five stars from me.

    Everything was superb. We had the leeks and the scallops to start, and the phrase "this is the best carrot I've ever had" was spoken. Then continued with the mujadara lentils (fantastic), bluefish, and and steaks. Thought the chocolate gochujang cake with the asparagus was a fun combo and the Earl grey brownie cream was delicious. Good food and fantastic, unassuming and down-to-earth service made for a memorable and intimate graduation dinner with none of the bustle and hassle of central Harvard Sq. Highly recommended!

    This year my eldest's son birthday was on Mother's Day and they wanted a joint celebration. We chose Forage for the range of food it offers, the warmth of the environment, and the authentic manner in which all of the staff connect. We were not disappointed. We chose the pre-fix menu which was a wonderful assortment of taste and texture. The cheese plate and desserts were a great addition to meal. The cocktails choices had a wonderful variation and we each found the right one for us. The wine we chose had mixed reviews with some of us really liking it and some thinking it was not the right fit. The wait staff was wonderful as we asked question (with me worried I had ordered the wrong bottle). They offered to change it, which we turned down since it was our fault. We will go again

    Amazing vegetables -- a cornucopia of raw, cooked, smoked, pickled and foraged veggies in creative combinations. Everything was beautifully plated -- but so delicious that we forgot to take photos!
