The food is consistently superlative, tasty without being too fancy, bold use of spice, always slightly on the edge.
What sends East Coast Grill over the top is the staff and the feeling of personal warmth in the restaurant.
Pros: Always leave feeling happy
Cons: Can be too crowded

I love the hot chocolate at LA Burdick’s. It’s thick and creamy and to die for!! I get mine made with soy milk and it still tastes great. It’s a little expensive. A small cup is at least $3 but it’s worth it! I will splurge on a cold dreary day!! Yum! It’s very close to Harvard Square and Border Café. Parking is limited. Take the T.

Though it has appetizers and entrees, this restaurant specializes in heavenly desserts. Chocolate lovers must try the ?Chocolate Infatuation.? Intended to be split for two, the dish includes truffles and a molten lava cake among the other chocolate tasting items. This restaurant is definitely a good pick for a special, romantic occasion.

Awesome chocolate, what more can I say? Sometimes the counter staff is great, sometimes not. Try the chocolate rodents! (citysearch won't let me say the "m" word) Consider planning to get your food to go, though, as the place is cramped with few seats.
Pros: Great price for the quality!
Cons: Small and sometimes hard to get a seat.

I've been going to Darwin's sandwich shop for many years now because it's one of Harvard Square's remaining neighborhood gems. I've watched it evolve from a little corner take-out place, into 2 popular community hot-spots. That's because in this society of corporate largesse and sameness, Darwin's remains independently owned and original, serving inventive, high quality and super tasty food. The word is out about this place and it does get crazy busy in there during lunch hours. But the places hums along, and they couldn't fit any more employees behind that counter if they wanted to. Generally they're friendly, hard-working, and doing the best they can. I get to know some of their names, I ask what the 'specials' are that day - it gets me through the line quicker, and I enoy my delicious, authentic Darwin's experience in their crowded but lovely cafe eating area. Or I sit on the bench outside and then I go back to work - nourished and energized. I highly recommend it, but not for the weak at heart.

I've never sat down here for coffee but I am a regular of buying whole beans to bring home. I've always had very very friendly service (often the same fellow who is professional and friendly) and when I get my pound to go I also get a cup of whatever is brewing to wet my whistle. Hands down the best coffee. I am a truly addicted Peet's fan and will continue to be.
Pros: Best Coffee Ever, Friendly Service, Free cup with purchase of pound
Cons: Hard to park in Harvard Square to pick up a quick pound of beans for home

They sell about every type of electronic you might want but outside of their DVD and music selection, the variety isn't that great. If you want something like an antenna, they might have two types. for more specialized electronics, I would look online.
Their staff is helpful without being overly aggressive.
