I went for my birthday as part of a three restaurant dinner series and started the first night with Somerville, and it was amazing! All of my guests enjoyed the food, I had the striped bass, which was so light and so tasty, we loved the ambience, the music was amazing and the food was wonderful. It was a beautiful way to spend my birthday, and our service was truly top-notch. I look forward to coming back again and trying more on the menu.
