Viale

Cozy environment with a bunch of seafood options. The cocktails are not super strong but flavourful. The pistachio pesto pie was a unique dish completely vegetarian and our vegetarian friends enjoyed

My husband and I decided to take a drive last Saturday and we ended up in Cambridge. We walked by Viale and figured we’d give it a try. It was amazing !! Everything we ordered was unbelievable. The oysters were phenomenal. The service was impeccable. I looked around the restaurant and noticed how many employees they had and I thought to myself they must really take good care of their employees because when you go to other restaurants all you see is shortages. There was no shortage in quality, the kindness of employees and their wonderful attitudes. This restaurant is an absolute gem! Can’t wait to go again.

Had $1 oysters in the summer. They were fantastic, very fresh! The new outdoor seating is great and they had an absolutely fantastic orange wine as special at the time. The great thing about this place was that the oyster happy hour was at a decent time Monday through Thursday from 5pm to 7pm, if I remember correctly!. Hopefully they will have the same deal this summer!

Excellent service, excellent outdoor seating, excellent food. Saffron Arancini, Smoked Beets, and Fried Artichokes were a great way to start the meal. Spaghetti Verde was springy and herbaceous. Perfect early summer dinner. Wheelchair accessibility: Called ahead to make sure table was walker accessible and the accommodated quickly. Excellent service.

Went to this restaurant for dinner and they had a good outdoor space. The service also was good and we had a particularly nice bartender/server. My only issue is with the food. I ordered a kale salad and it was hard to eat because it was not properly massaged. The bread was hard and bland. The pumpkin pasta was the best item i had but it’s something by the end i was tired of. Would not recommend for the price.

A gem! Solid cocktails, small tasty European size dishes. A modern atmosphere with classic hospitality and food. So much attention to detail from lighting to libations. We came here for a large group and they were amazing. The food, staff and vibe were just perfect.

[5/5, Cambridge, MA] Stumbled into this restaurant which turned out to be a wonderful surprise. They offer their own “Restaurant Week”, a 3-course meal for $45. You can choose your own: Starters Duck Croquette, Main/Large Plate Grassfed Strip Steak, and Dessert Tiramisu. We also added a seafood pasta we forgot the name it’s called Saffron something? but it was the BOMB. Actually, all the savory items mentioned here were fantastic. Tiramisu was not great because the cinnamon powder was overwhelming. Will definitely be back. Great food and value.

We walked around Cambridge looking for the right stop for dinner and for oysters. Viale had amazing outdoor dining. The staff and service was amazing and the food and drinks were even better!

Went here with a friend to celebrate her birthday, and it was wonderful! We loved the cocktails, I got the fantasma nera, which was unique, fresh and delicious. Thoughts on food: •saffron arancini- the combo of saffron with arancini sounded exciting, but I thought the arancini themselves weren’t wonderful. However, we both LOVED the sauce it was served in •pistachio pesto pizza- very unique! More like a flatbread than a pizza dough, but very tasty •pumpkin pappardelle- this was the star of the night!! I’m not normally a huge fan of pumpkin pasta, but the sauce was delectable and the pasta was very fresh. The combo of sage with the pumpkin was heavenly! Overall we had a great time. Would highly recommend for a fancy date night or special occasion!

Honestly one of the best restaurants in Cambridge! Discovered via Off the Beaten Path Food Tours food tour, we loved meeting the owners and learning about their food. We tried really fresh and delicious oysters and arancini and stayed afterwards for yummy drinks. Cool vibe and welcoming. They have awesome art there too. Can't wait to go back for brunch this weekend.
