My husband and I had such a wonderful experience at Russell House Tavern! We sat outside and really enjoyed the atmosphere—it was lively but still cozy. Our waiter was incredibly nice, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. The food was absolutely delicious! We ordered the calamari and the Mushroom & Leek pizza, and both were outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. We’ll definitely be coming back the next time we’re in Cambridge. Highly recommend!

Stopped by this restaurant in Harvard Square on a Friday evening and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was lively with a great vibe, and they offer both indoor and outdoor seating. Despite it being busy and us not having a reservation, we were seated right away with no wait. Service was friendly and quick throughout our visit. The food was delicious — especially the calamari, burger, and pizza. The steak was just average, but overall this place is a solid option if you’re in Harvard Square and looking for good food in a fun setting.

From the second I walked up, the hostess was extremely sweet. I sat at the bar and had some of the best service that I have had so far on my Boston/Cambridge trip. The bartender gave me some samples of beers on tap and made great recommendations. And, coming from a southerner, I had an incredible fried green tomato BLT. Such a great stop for my trip and will return if I’m back in the area!

We had the salmon, a cocktail, and pasta at Russell House Tavern. The salmon was flavorful and the cocktail spot on, though the pasta turned out a bit mushy. Our server was incredibly kind and took it off the bill without hesitation. It was a beautiful night overall—great service, good food, and a warm atmosphere.
