THE WORST RESTAURANT IN THE BOSTON AREA!!! SAVE YOUR MONEY!! – It's simple: SOUND BITES NEEDS TO GO OUT OF BUSINESS!! I wish I could give ZERO STARS!! The food is NOT FRESH, as confirmed by the manager. The service is reprehensible. Here's what I had: Corn beef hash - it tasted like a SALT BOMB. I asked if it was normally so salty and the response was a resounding YES. Rather than take responsibility for giving customers food that is over-salted, the manager told me it's the beef vendor's fault. Since the food was not edible... read more
Breakfast done right. – Yes there is a line. Yes Yasser is abrupt. And yes, you won't find too many better breakfast joints around. The omlettes are fluffy, filled with flavorful fresh ingredients and not sitting in a pool of butter/grease. The fruit plate is the best around - papaya and mango anyone? The pancakes are puffy, not dense rocks and served -go figure- hot! The menu is filled with plenty of selections that are both unusual and familiar, making it tough to make a choice. There is a nice use of spice here that is so... read more
Best Margaritas, food, service – I've been going to Sound Bites with a group of friends for the last few years. We have always been welcomed and treated as warmly as a new face walking through the door. The owner is very polite and really makes sure customers leave happy. There can be a long wait but I heard that they are opening for breakfast full time. I'm really looking forward to it! The tvs also make it a great bar to sit down at and enjoy the game. Definitely a place to put on your local hang out list!
This Place doesn't just bite, it stinks!!!! – First let's start off with the long wait, getting fake smiles from the staff, and then the rushed service (if you even want to call it service). Food is bland and nothing really wows your taste buds especially for the price and the indigestion you get stemming from the constant badgering from the manager to eat your food and leave immediately. That guy is so rude that I've even seen him tell customers to put their coffees from Truegrounds (really good coffee shop just across the ... read more
Worst Place Ever – The first thing i ever heard upon moving to Somerville was to try this "fantastic" brunch place. But let me tell you, there is not one thing good about this place. The staff is horrible, and i have worked in the restaurant business my whole life. I don't understand how this place stays afloat. But if you like over-cooked eggs, undercooked waffles, being overcharged for coffees (the owner purposely charges tabs for 4 coffees instead of two), waiting on line for hours with Tufts kids, and being treated like ... read more
worst service ever experienced!!! – Food was OK nothing great, wait was long, there was no room to move inside, we were seated by the window which was freezing. Owner was very rude as we waited for our food. Our neighbors got their food, ate it and left and we had not only not received our food but no one ever came back to our table to check on us. When we asked about our food we were yelled at that "$75,000 is being spent to enlarge the kitchen so YOU have a 5 minute less wait". In the end we left no tip due to the rudeness... read more
Great casual breakfast place - newly renovated! – I used to live right down Broadway, so I've been here many, many times. They've recently renovated and moved next door to where they used to be. It makes for a much nicer dining experience, though the service is about the same (whether you see that as a positive or not). Soundbites is more about efficient, casual eating than being a full-service diner anyways. The food comes out fast, and because of the line, the staff looks to turn tables over quickly. The food is very good,... read more
Best breakfast – There is no other place I would wait nearly an hour for outside in the dead of winter. There's a reason why people line up and wait against the elements to eat here. Ole omelette with garlic mashers - I love you.
best breakfast ever – i love breakfast. always have. it's my favorite part of the weekend and nothing compares to soundbites. it's amazing. i go at least 3 times a month. it's amazing! food is fantastic (try the challa french toast!) and the coffee is to die for! recommendations: go early or late to avoid the hangover crowds. it's usually managable by 1-130p. go...NOW!! : )
