B-side is heavy on a refined 'lounge' scene. The bar is packed on weekend evenings with a young sassy 'Cambridge' crowd. Great cocktail menu. The food has good intentions, but ends up being just okay -- the chefs attempt taking a gourmet twist on American standards: like grilled sirloin with mushroom baklava over mashed potatoes. Go with the seafood entrees which tend to be more innovative. The appetizers are usually tastier (but tiny!) and rotate with frequency. Try red beet salad with sugar peas, watercress over creme fraiche. Other worthy sides, if you are in the mood, are lobster mashed potatoes. Brunch is better than dinner, and sans the drinking crowd.
