Located between Central Square and MIT, this local favorite was named Top Nerd Bar by Popular Science. Graced by MIT students & faculty, locals, and engineers from Tech Sqaure, Miracle of Science truly lives up to its name. The chalkboard wall menu resembles the periodic table (Qc is the chicken quesadilla); the condiments are in test tubes; and the tables are slate chemistry lab counters. Favorite dishes include the delicious Roni Burger, cooked with Jalapeno peppers and topped with pepper jack cheese; and the turkey chipotle chili with ground turkey, tomatillos, onions and garlic. For sides, order the wonderful roasted red potatoes and tomato chutney - an innovative alternative to French fries and ketchup. Beer options consist of 20 bottles and six taps featuring Tremont Ale, Brooklyn, and Guinness. They also have a great brunch, try the Brazilian grilled steak and eggs. The music ?controlled by the bartender ? can vary from house to rock to hip hop or Al Green; and at night, the eatery becomes a club. For a unique bar/restaurant with a taste of Cambridge?s tech flavor, take a visit to Miracle of Science. Hey, you might even learn something while you?re there.
