Editorial fromIts unobtrusive side street location in Harvard Square makes Sandrine's a true find, if you are lucky enough to come across it. Outside, the restaurant resembles an Art Nouveau-era Paris Metro station, while its interior mixes mosaics of…

Pleasantly romantic. – My wife and I suddenly found ourselve able to make a quick dinner plan when our child was off for an evening at a friend's house. Sandrine's was the closest place with an available reservation on short notice. A rainy night, we parked in the underground lot just next door. The room was warm and romantic; the service friendly and efficient. While the food was just a shade better than "ok" and the prices a notch too high, it was still such a nice experience that we would be pleased to return if atmospher... read more
Sandrine's so-so – The restaurant was very accommodating when it came to seating our large group. My grilled romaine lettuce salad was pretty good, but my duck entree was just so-so: it was lukewarm and the best part was the mushroom risotto underneath. For dessert I had the chocolate cake with caramel center: it was a bit heavy but delicious.
first visit to Sandrines very enjoyable – Looking to try something new, we recently dined at Sandrine's restaurant in Harvard Square. I don't speak French, and we were all both new to Alsatian cuisine, so the menu was a little confusing at first. Our waitress patiently explained everything from flammekueche (alsatian flatbread) to choucroute (sauerkraut). Our food was wonderful, we shared a proscuitto and pear flammekeuche and mussels to start, then a rack of lamb and choucroute. We forwent a bottle of wine and instead sampl... read more
Very disappointing. – The best thing about this restaurant is an absolutely gorgeous fron door, and a very nice decor overall. The service was OK. The food was very very ordinary and not even close to being worth the very steep prices. The garlic roasted checked reminded me of cafeteria qaulity chicken. I am used to the fact that in expensive restaurants chicken can be prepared exceptionally well. The duck breast in the scallops and duck breast offering was hard to cut and even harder to chew, inedible. The famed chacrute, t... read more
18% gratuity included for a party of 2???? – Food was great. Food was expensive. Servings were small. Then the bill came for a party of 2 and an 18% gratuity was added. The server never mentioned this, and I am sure she wouldn't have if we added another 20% on top of that. I wonder how many people fell victim to this scam. Simply put, this was insulting and I will not be returning.
Sandrine's superb! – My friends and i recently took advantage of restaurant week, and had a great meal at Sandrines. The food was fantastic,and the wine list was amazing. The friendly staff,and great ambience made for a memorable evening. I HIGHLY recommend Sandrines to anyone who is looking for a great dinner out in Harvard sq. Gwen,Ramond,and Amy, keep up the great work!
poor showing – The purpose of restaurant week is to allow a restaurant to showcase their food during a time period where restaurant attendance is traditionally slow. I have been a fan of restaurant week and have enjoyed being a guest at many participating restaurants. This year I had the pleasure of eating at Icarus, Sandrine's, La La Rohk and Via Matta. However, to my disappointment, Sandrine's quality of food, service and ambiance fell below average in comparison to other participating restaurants. From Sandrine's prix fix... read more
excellent dinner, unusual company – We recently dined at Sandrine's for restaurant. We found out the chef was serving his signature lobster martini as an entree selection. I have to say it was absolutely wonderful. My husband had the pork and it was equally as good. Our only draw back was an very loud and disturbing table in the small dining room we were in. They were very clearly unhappy with thier $30.04 meal and were very articulate about it. I don't know what people expect for $30.04 but, I have to say, we were thrilled.... read more
Not for restaurant week... – Went to Sandrines for restaurant week after reading so many great reviews. My group of 6 paid $300 to eat in the basement...where it seemed tables had been set up just for the event (while the regular diners ate in the grand dining room on the first floor). The prefix menu had only 4 possible combinations of appetizer and entree (2 each). None of the items on the restaurant week menu were included on the regular menu. Honestly, I felt a bit cheated. The items we did order were of VERY poor qualit... read more
