Bill Addison's review: "There was a lilting rendition of cacio e pepe, ricotta gnocchi with perocino and pepper but with the addition of nasturtium butter that gave the dish an herbaceous lift." Baca selanjutnya
I had the oysters, fried clams (pictured), barcuterie, the burger (which sold out 10 minutes after opening - 5:40), the half pigs head Peking style, & chocolate mousse! Everything was amazing!
Dehydrated miso lends a burst of umami. It goes on a housemade bun along with house-made condiments. This burger isn't on the menu, it's a verbal special in the bar area, so you've got to ask for it. Baca selanjutnya
Food & Wine named Maws one of the best new chefs, and his burger one of the country's top 25. I love sitting at the bar, which has an incredible cocktail menu, rabbit porchetta and fried pig's tails. Baca selanjutnya
Get there at 5:30 and sit at the bar for one of the best burgers. (They only make a few a day, and they run out fairly quickly ...) The secret is bone marrow (a little bit cheating) and miso paste ...
Bill Addison's review: "A curling octopus tentacle was seared to smokiness, offset by chickpeas that dissolved to puree on the tongue and a black garlic vinaigrette that pumped out umami." Baca selanjutnya
Each night, Craigie on Main serves less than twenty of their off-menu burgers, which are made from a custom blend of three different cuts of meat, beef bone marrow and suet.
The chef changes the menu daily using only the freshest local ingredients. This is a foodies heaven! I had a pescatarian tasting menu that delighted the sight as much as the palate. A must!!
The bar used to be the best place to eat alone in Cambridge but they abandoned their burger and now only have $38 fancy entrees. Still a great restaurant but no longer a great weeknight eat alone :(
(Best of Boston 2013-BURGER) Improper Bostonian says, "You've heard the legend: 8 oz. of ground brisket, short rib and hanger steak. A soft-yet-structured homemade bun, studded with sesame seeds..."
The food picks up right where Craigie Street Bistrot's left off - inspired by the best ingredients each day, the menu ever shifting and highly local, tastings determined by the chef's whim. Baca selanjutnya
Craigie on Main has a seasonal menu which changes daily as nearly everything on the menu is organically grown and locally produced. An open kitchen allows customers to see their food being prepared. Baca selanjutnya
Is it the all-hands-on-deck staff, somehow both omniscient and omnipresent? Is it the oysters with candied lemon mignonette, the best way to start a meal, maybe ever? The answer is all of the above.
The Ultimate craigie experience was awesome, it was for our 2 years wedding anniversary and it worth every penny! The wine pairing was on point! anf the waiters was both professional and knowledgable!
Home of the secret burger, served only at the bar. But I advise snagging a table reservation and digging into the menu. The servers will surprise you anyhow.
Anything from roasted chicken to confit and roasted milk-fed pig’s head with spicy pumpkin sambal and boudin noir-hoisin sauce. All extraordinary. [Eater 38 Member]
I like sitting at the bar since I can talk to the bartenders who will make whatever crazy concoction the situation calls for. Bar food favs include seasonal locavore meat items & clam w/ squid ink
"burger: bone marrow, suet, miso powder, subtly sweet mace ketchup, and nutty, fonduelike cheese, then nestled on a buttery, griddled house-made bun". Only 18 served per night so go before 630
Go tasting menu for a delicious/impressive/fun dining adventures! Also try the pig’s head, grilled octopus, sweet breads and mushroom ragout - top it all off with creamy flan,dripping w/ hot caramel.
Order the Braised Slab Bacon with Lentils. Then find out how to make it yourself. Chef Tony Maws has contributed this recipe to the "The Better Bacon Book." http://bit.ly/bacon-iPad-Book
We heard about this place from Bertuccis waiter. We had the ribeye plate and beef rib. Both were very very good. The ribeye was very high priced, drinks were strong but average price. Would recommend.
From the decadent 10 course tasting menu to the bar menu featuring a legendary burger and awesomely fatty pig tails, there's several ways to experience the scope of Chef Tony Maws' talents. Baca selanjutnya
Boston’s Best Chef (Boston Magazine) combines his trademark French-inspired “refined rusticity” with an unyielding passion for the best local, seasonal, and organic ingredients.
Best restaurant for upscale, casual elegance and delicious food. Impeccable service and good seasonal menu variety. If I come into Boston from the suburbs, 75%+ it's only for Tony Maws and Craigie.
A rich reflection of the locally grown goods, in a modern eclectic package. The 3 course offers the best deal of lot (6 course is same size, 2X price, but 2X variety). Food's too salty though...
Get a cocktail and stand by the bar that connects the dining room to the bar. It's awkwardly placed, but it's so much fun to watch the open kitchen. It's like a dance.
(Best of Boston 2014-BURGER) Improper Bostonian says, "In an utterly done-to-death category, the bar at Tony Maws' celebrated nose-to-tail bistro still serves the ne plus ultra of local burgers."
Few chefs do both upscale and low-key fare as well as Craigie’s Tony Maws. Nor do many offer them side by side, as he does at his Cambridge restaurant. Baca selanjutnya
Options like their Craigie Cocktail Whim option, where they choose four mini-cocktails balanced from light to heavy, cut out the indecision. Trust your bartender. Baca selanjutnya
Reserve ringside seats well in advance; best seats in the house, hands down! Don't be afraid to let them advise you for wine and for what to order, the staff is amazing!
