Mediterranean BBQ

Head down to East Road and you'll find yourself in front of a proper neighbourhood restaurant that's clearly doing something right—nearly 800 people can't be wrong. The menu reads like a tour of the Mediterranean basin: expect charred vegetables, grilled meats that have actually seen a flame, and the kind of cooking that makes you wonder why more places around Cambridge bother with this much care. It's the sort of spot where locals keep coming back because the food tastes good, not because it's fashionable. Grab a table, order generously, and settle in for the evening.
