Cafeteria Bostonpost AIDS rungroup of 8 came here after the AIDS run on a VERY hot day. We were pleased to see the variety of salads on the menu. Food and service were both great.6/2/2013 12:00:00 AMTerrific!Everything about our meal at Cafeteria Boston was terrific! The sangria was perfect and not-too-sweet on a HOT evening, our server answered all of our questions easily and made some suggestions. The black bean burger (house-made) was one of the best I have ever had (and I have had MANY) and my husband's turkey burger was devoured in about two minutes. The chopped apple salad was great (minus the shrimp for the vegetarians) - fresh, unusual, tasty. Mac & cheese was bubbling hot, obviously made in-house, with large pieces of sweet carrots and peas alongside. If I lived in Boston, I would be a regular customer!5/30/2013 12:00:00 AMLoud inside, but lovely outsideGood food and a great selection of interesting salads. Unfortunately, it was raining the night we went, so we had to sit inside, which gets quite loud, but on a nice summer evening, the patio is a great place to be.5/23/2013 12:00:00 AM3rd visit, still enjoyI've been for dinner in the past but this was my first brunch experience. Food was great and we got to sit outside even though our reservation was for inside. Food came out fast!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMsort of child friendlyfood and service was fantastic. other reviews said child friendly. food wasn't child friendly and the restaurant only had one high chair so our toddler was on our lap for the whole meal. hope they improve this as we loved everything else5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMothers' DayMy sister and I took our two moms for brunch on mothers' day. Our waitress was wonderful and very sweet. The Lilosas and bellinis were delish and everyone loved their food choices. This is such a great find because it's so affordable even though it's in a prime location on Newbury... Not always an easy thing to find!5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMPleasantly SurprisedThe reviews that I read on Cafeteria were spot on, it is a very hip spot with a great menu. We loved the high tables and the view upstairs. We will definitely dine here again. Would highly recommend.5/9/2013 12:00:00 AMA Hot Spot on Newbury...Thsi is our second time there. Food is always excellent, many choices, all great. Service is great too. A very busy place even at 5pm on a Saturday.
If you eat inside, try for a table upstairs by the window...5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMalways a favoritecome here again and again, everything on the menu is good (really!), service is quick, prices are reasonable.

Food and service were very good, the menu had something for everyone. Using OpenTable for our reservation was just the ticket, our table was ready and waiting despite the crowd.4/14/2013 12:00:00 AMEverything was great, exceptEverything was great, except the service. Our waitress seemed to be running back and forth from first to second floor. We had to ask for water several times We had to ask for salt and pepper. No one checked in with us during the meal.There was really no dedicated server for this level, only the first floor people running up every once in a while to check. Food was good; prices fair for portion size. Pleasant atmosphere except we were sitting under a speaker and it was a bit loud.
As the outdoor (downstairs) season is now upon us, management needs to address the two-level service balance.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had a great dinner withWe had a great dinner with three teenage girls.

Should bring bread out without having to ask for it3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food, Amazing serviceGreat food, good crowd, amazing servers. Cafeteria Boston was a great find. We were a little crunch for time, and the server was super helpful in getting us out with time to spare. We started with the sparkling sangria, which was absolutely delightful, and then I had the BBQ burger, and my girlfriend had the taco salad. Both were amazing, and the taco salad was enormous. The noise level is definitely energetic, but not oppressive. The location is also fantastic, right on Newbury st. I would definitely return again.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AMBoston cream burger?????Very cool and hip-like ambiance. Staff was very friendly and the menu had a good variety to choose from. I had the Boston cream burger and I was skeptical about the combination, but boy was I Wrong!!! can't wait to go back. If you haven't tried this place, it's definitely one you want to try. Enjoy, I did !3/8/2013 12:00:00 AM
