- DDhruvinGoldGreater Boston •1 review5.0Dined 7 days agoI had a wonderful dinning experience at Forage. As someone with several dietary restrictions I truly appreciated how thoughtfully and carefully the team accommodated all my requests. They made sure I could enjoy the good four-course meal without compromising on taste or quality. All dishes were beautifully prepared and full of flavours but the desert was the highlight of the evening. The attention to detail, hospitality and efforts to make the experience special really stood out. I highly recommend the place especially for anyone with dietary restrictions looking for an exceptional dinning experience.More infoForage$$$$• Farm-to-table• Cambridge•4.7

- SSteveGreater Boston •6 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 25, 2026Very helpful “receptionist” and waitstaff. Sampling food is a great concept. Everything delicious. The only downsides: 1. Sometimes staff seemed to forget about us, 2. Food is quite expensive. But overall, terrific.More infoMargeaux Supper Parlor$$$$• Contemporary American• Cambridge•4.5
