Great store, great stuff, great staff! A friend of mine who lives in the area recommended Salmagundi. I could not be more impressed with this store and the great customer service. They have an excellent selection of hats and other accessories…More »

Excellent ice cream and a lot of really great outdoor seating here. You definitely have more room to relax and enjoy your ice cream here than at other locations. My only complaint was that the cashier kind of rushed me to pay when I was chatting with…More »

Interesting little shop that at first I thought would be more like a Dollar Store, but is more like a discounted Bed Bath and Beyond. They have all your basic home needs including kitchen utensils, bedding, bath goods and bins and containers for…More »

Hipster mecca! I had never visited this area of JP before and wandered over at the suggestion of my beloved Yelp friend and JP resident Angel M. I was not disappointed with Ula Cafe. I loved the outdoor seating. There are plenty of tables set up…More »

Aside from the rather ridiculous security at this place, I had a decent time shopping here and scored three cute new skirts for $12.99 each. Woot!

I was a little put off that when I entered the store I had to surrender my gym bag and a bag of…More »

My experiences with this Stop & Shop have been all good. However, maybe that's because I am not here buying fresh produce and dodging rats and mice! I mainly have just come here and stocked up on some sale items and some Latin foods. They have a…More »

I shopped at Pimentel Market last week and was not shot or accosted or harassed by anyone. I really don't know what the previous reviewer is talking about.  Rather than encountering urban violence,  I had a great shopping experience and picked up a…More »

This store is very similar to the Harvard Street location, except this one is perhaps a little larger. They have a very similar selection of jewelry, home decor items and some clothes. I've never really enjoyed the style of most things in either…More »

I really enjoyed my visit to this unique little kitchen shop. It is rather small, so I would not go here if you're looking to outfit your entire kitchen. It's more of a place to come in and find a few items. They also have a great selection of items…More »

Really cool place. They have a great selection of household goods like mugs, plates, silverware, etc. I picked up a beautiful container for coffee that looks brand new. I also scored a plate that I was considering paying full price for at Pier 1.…More »

Much cleaner, much neater, much nicer and a much better selection than the Allston location. The staff here was friendly and relaxed as well. I'll definitely be back the next time I am in the area.

I am looking forward to giving the Real Deal another try as they have so many menu options. However, I thought my Carmella Soprano pannini was just okay. On the menu it says that this sandwich comes with roasted eggplant, but the eggplant in my…More »

Definitely four stars for the sandwiches! I had their "#1" turkey sandwich here and it was excellent. Served on a brioche roll with a delicious sauce and just the right amount of turkey to cheese. However, three stars for the price! While the…More »

Really not impressed. What turned me off the most was that the floors were  sooooo dirty! Yuck. Who wants to buy food somewhere where they can't even keep the floors clean!
