So this is a little off the beaten path, but definitely worth the adventure. If you are not a seasoned city person.... This is not for you. For those who are up for a little adventure, it is excellent! Salads, Sandwiches, Soup, Bowls, Coffee and save room for desert. Hipster Scene. Great windows. A cool urban Vibe. Recommend Ayanna's Bowl. Voted Best of Boston.
