    Hadn't been to Branch Line since before the pandemic but it was as good as I remembered it had been. Good service, tasty food, nice sized portions, energetic crowd...what else can I say? We'll be back next time we're in the neighborhood and will actually order less food since the portions of salads and sides are quite large.

    A gem of a hotel restaurant packed into Harvard Square. Bright, open, concept with enough room between tables that it is easy to talk. Nice menu. Good food, and good service. Was surprised that the ‘roasted Brussel Sprouts’ were uncooked, because everything else was good.

    Typical Row 34 amazing food! Sooo good! Unlike the other locations, it felt a little cafeteria like. It was in the middle of the day, so it could be that. It is very clean. Would go back!

    Great time at B&B as always! Service was attentive, which was great. The food was just ok this time, but it might’ve been an off-day for the kitchen. Still one of my go-tos! Got the biscuit basket (10/10), the hash scramble (5/10), and the biscuits and gravy (6/10). The Biscuits and Gravy tend to be my favorite but the gravy was really watery this time and had soooo many crunchy onions.
