  • Neighborhood: Central Square
  • Directions: Kendall/MIT (Red Line) at State Street
  • Hours: Mon-Wed 11:30 am-1 am, Thurs-Fri 11:30 am-2 am, Sat 5 pm-2 am
This stylish, minimalist eatery near MIT is a classy lunch spot serving exotic sandwiches by day and attracting a hip crowd at night for tapas. The upholstered benches and tables are low and set on wheels so you can roll yourself around — space permitting, of course — to each night’s DJ.
Insider's Tip: The eclectic menu includes Ten Tiny Tacos ($8) served with pulled pork or black beans, and jerk chicken sticks ($6.50) with mango dipping sauce.
