Rosenfeld Walter
Serves good food late. $12 for 2 pork belly tacos, $7 bucks for a generous, tasty portion fries. Serving until 1:30am. Friendly enough. Cramped bar space. But, want a late night but that's about a burger - this'll do the trick! But just 4 stars - liked it fine didn't love it.

Cozy place, good cocktails, excellent service. One of the few South End restaurants with booths and where you can actually carry on a conversation without shouting. On our most recent visit we had about 5 or 6 small plates: calamari, chicken livers, tuna, a few others, all well prepared and tasty. Love this place.

Made a stop in on a weeknight and walked into a pleasant greeting from the bar and a dim lit cozy little cafe with an awesome soundtrack for a Tuesday night! The food was reasonably priced at the proper proportion and very well cooked from the kitchen. The waitstaff worked the room well and kept us satisfied for the most part. Two thumbs up on this one. If you’re in the mood for some comfort grub at a great price and sweet atmosphere check out the Franklin cafe.Would give 3 thumbs however I only have 2Papa
