    My friend and I had a really wonderful dinner at Alden and Harlow this evening. We sat in this sweet area of their dining room near a green wall lined with plants. The noise level was perfect, so my friend and I could hear each other and catch up. Cozy spot to be on a crisp fall night. Service was wonderful and food was great. I recommend the Ubiquitous Kale Salad and the Secret Burger!

    Great place! Food and atmosphere were awesome; but it was our server, Manuel, who made our experience really special. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the menu, and made excellent recommendations. We will definitely visit again!

    Service was WONDERFUL!!!! Waitstaff very personable, warm, helpful. I was a bit late and called to give them a head up. They gave me NO grief whatsoever about it. And they were so kind as to tell my companion who had already arrived. Lobster bisque was delicious with big chunks of tender lobster in it. Cobb salad and Beet salad were both delicious! Very fresh & crispy. The Cobb salad was very hearty w sliced avocado, soft boiled egg and meaty bacon. Ambiance was contemporary rustic. High top seating was ok, not as uncomfortable as anticipated.

    We love Source. Always enjoy the energetic (but not too loud) atmosphere. The waitstaff are attentive and the food (at least the pizzas are delicious). Source is a favorite "go to" spot for us in Harvard Square.
