Food Scene
Great southern comfort food with a sophisticated flare and still reasonably priced. Great cocktails and a great selection of whiskey (Scotch, Japanese, Bourbon). They have a mean fried chicken. Surprisingly kid friendly.

My new found gem. Delicious family-style and casual Tibetan food. You can't go wrong with the momos (dumplings) or the Shapta (stir-fried sliced tender beef with scallions). Great vegetarian options as well. Kid friendly.

You can't say you were in Somerville if you didn't stop by Diesel for anything coffee related or to eat their breakfast burritos. Pool tables inside to boot. Kid friendly.
