Noir
Neighborhood: Harvard Square

1 Bennett St
Cambridge, MA 02138

Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub

4 Fisher St

Sligo Pub

Boloco
Neighborhood: Financial District

82 Water St
Boston, MA 02109

Brendan M. writes: The burritos are on the small side, but it must be said that Boloco has put some energy into coming up with original and creative fillings. In a sense, I think Boloco may be doing themselves a disfavour branding their wraps as burritos. As a one-time…
