The Automatic

Not served because our large group "had enough". Asked politely who they meant, but was not given an answer. Later had my water glass knocked out of my hand by an employee. Funny thing is that I was not drinking there and was ready to head out with whoever was too drunk. First time here after 4 years of living nearby, will not be back — many better options in the area.

Great lively vibe. Forward thinking menu (Sausage Bomb was a hit with our group). Cocktails could be a little stronger...but bear list is very good.

Neat little bar space near Kendall Square offering some unique and flavorful food options. Lots of mixed drinks and a small assortment of beers to choose from. The dining room is very open so it can get a little noisey inside at times.
