Share some Spanish tapas with your significant other at Dali in Somerville. This restaurant is heavily influenced by it's Latin roots- from the alluring music playing in the background to the menu featuring hispanic flavors and spices.
The staff here is super friendly and the atmosphere is dimly lit and cozy making it the perfect date spot. Also highly recommended is the sangria which can be ordered by the pitcher to accompany your meal.

My friends keep coming back to Orleans for its fabulous mojitos which have a fruity kick to them. I come back for a cold glass of chardonnay and a window seat after work, or for an outdoor appetizer (they commandeer Comcast's parking lot after hours, and it's not as bad as you'd think) in summer. The place gets really hopping at night and is packed on weekends. The food is usually good and the Sox game, for better or for worse, shows on big screens all over the place. It gets loud in here so prepare to scream after sundown. Also a decent brunch goes until 3 or 4 and is never crowded, although the atmosphere is awfully sterile.

OK.. the food is gross and it's quite dirty behind the serving line. Try another Anna's or Boca Grande. You'd be better off, trust me.

Tacos Lupita is the only place in som/cambridge where you can get some authentic food. It's very tasty. Mind you this is a taco joint - in & out. However, I don't think the owners are that pre-occupied with hygine and cleanliness. I guess it's part of the charm that gives off that "authentic feel", but still....

Yoshi's is a sweet little place in Powderhouse Square, Somerville (a short walk from Davis). They have an excellent lunch box which I think is the best value for lunch in the area. For $7.00 or so you get: an entree (tofu, tempura, salmon, beef, etc.), dumplings, salad, maki, seaweed salad, lettuce salad, miso soup, etc. Can be done all veg as well! Always fresh and tasty, clean decor, very pleasant service. Great neighborhood place.

I went to Rosebud last summer to try it out. Anyone who has ever passed by will notice the brightly colored diner car, which is what initially attracted me. The atmosphere is cute, the service is average, and the food is also average. My only complaint is that Rosebud isn't open typical diner hours (ie into the wee hours of the night), but that isn't Rosebud's fault--it is the city of Somerville's. I recommend the Rosebud for a quick bite to eat or for a fun change of pace.

Yoshi's is across the street from my old house, so of course this was the primary place that I would get Japanese food. It's an affordable, convenient and pleasant enough little place, and their non-sushi food is fine. Especially some of the noodle soups are pretty good.
However, the primary fare of a sushi place is sushi, and they're somewhat lacking in freshness there and serve sushi at the wrong temperature. We completely stopped ordering their sushi after we were served a spider roll that tasted plain spoiled.
Go there for dumplings, soup or a bento box, but I wouldn't do a la carte.

The decor is raw. Images of industry, mass production, and waste are sort of the theme. Plywood floors, tables made of junction boxes. The coffee is good. The lemon squares are too eggy for my taste. It is actually quite enormous and extends far into the back where you'll find designer couches, a pool table, and a photo booth.
