On another visit, I ordered the Skillet Roasted Halibut with jumbo grilled asparagus, warm potato salad, and fried Ipswich clams. The halibut was tender and flavorful, lightly encrusted, and was great by itself, but when chased by the asparagus, then those clams I should have stopped there. The Chef's Cheese Plate finished off the evening, featuring imported Brie, sharp cheddar, breads, crackers and summer fruits. I confess on one of these visits, we skipped the theater . Dinner reservations are heavily recommended for Friday and Saturday nights for both the lounge and the restaurant.
Vegetarian dishes are available.
Parking is available in the municipal parking lots surrounding Davis Square, but also metered parking on the street is free after 6pm. For authentic Mexican food based on the culinary traditions of Oaxaca and Veracruz, I affectionately recommend Ol Mexican Grill in Arlington. Ol is a cozy, family-owned neighborhood restaurant run by the talented Ramos Family. I tried the grilled and braised pork burritos, stuffed with rice, beans, pico de gallo, dressed with sour cream and guacamole. Not to be mistaken for being dessert-like, mol is a mild savory chocolate sauce.
