Best food in Central Square
I love this restaurant. The menu boasts "comfort food" and it certainly delivers. The atmosphere is very relaxed and fun, great for large parties or a romantic dinner for two. Prices are very reasonable. The drink menu is fantastic (interesting cocktails, and not TOO sweet) and the wine list is nice. I will return here many times in the future. The owner and bartender Dillon Black is awesome.

Fantastic cocktails & service
My experience at Green Street last night was so good I am compelled to share it with others. Seven of us headed over to GS for a "one more drink" but the cocktails were so good one nightcap turned into three. A few of us braved the unique cocktail menu and each of us were rewarded with harmonious concoctions of complex tastes. Not only were the drinks perfectly mixed, they were relatively inexpensive. Cocktails that would easily cost over $10 elsewhere ranged from $6.50 to $9 at GS. The perfect complement to our drinks was the exceptional service. If our waitress hadn't told us it was her first night there, we would not have guessed it. She was quick, accurate, and even handled a picky orderer in our group with humor. For better or worse, whenever one of us got down to our last sip, she would magically appear to take an order for the next round. We will definitely be back!

Upscale comfort food and BEST classic-style cocktails.
My husband and I came across this place after reading a short interview in Boston Magazine which just briefly mentioned Green Street as a favorite local haunt. We decided to try it out on a whim and wow was that a lucky decision. I think the place used to do more Latin-vibed cuisine but now they are more "comfort food with a twist" and make sure you don't land on their old website but go to greenstreetgrill dot com. We went quite early on Saturday, around 5:30 PM and the place was very quiet. The drinks menu is wonderful, seasonal and well priced. You get a properly sized perfectly mixed drink, our bartender was EXCELLENT and knew the difference between stirring a drink and shaking one. The food was also great. We ordered the mussels as an appetizer and they are the best I've EVER had. A giant plate of perfectly seasoned mollusks, the broth was incredible, not to rich and made even more lovely by the sauteed leaks and sherry. For dinner, we shared the steak which was again, delicious though the "fries" which were more like big potato wedges were too crispy and dried out. Dessert was a Fort Washington Flip, a great fall drink with an egg. We loved this place so much, we were back again the following Saturday! This time we had the ribs as an appetizer and they were very good, not too spicy with a great smoky sauce and delicious corn bread. For dinner, it was the seared fish over succotash. A very interesting dish with vibrant green veggies in the succotash and perfectly cooked cod. We can't wait to go back again! And the super cheap parking next door makes going to a Cambridge eatery even easier.

Not what I expected (in a good way!)
My initial reaction was surprise, as this place looks like it should be a dive bar based on its exterior. Instead, it's a comfortable place for a drink. For a post-work drink, Green Street was a good choice - there was seating at the bar for everyone in our group, even though we arrived at different times. Dinner was a little pricier than we were looking for, but I would go again for a cocktail or two.Worldwide > United States > Cambridge, MA > Restaurants
