Cafe Barada - Cambridge

Cafe Barada quickly has become one of our favorite neighborhood spots! The most flavorful, comforting, tantalizing and authentic Lebanese food in this area, for sure, and it is also run by the kindest family. The grapeleaves are the closest I can find to Situ’s!Food: 5/5

Great food and great atmosphere. I seem to come here whenever a good friend needs my best ear. The owner is charming and an excellent host who makes you feel at home.Food: 5/5

A warm, homey place with amazing, authentic Lebanese food. great food drink menu, great portions, and you can just tell they care :

I've been eating their food since 1985, when the owner had a little hole in the wall in Porter Sq. called Good Stuff Cafe, and I was hooked on the salad dressing back then it's still every bit as good. I followed him to Arlington and back to Cambridge. They are serious about good quality, fresh ingredients I almost always want to order ful mudammus as an appetizer, and vegetarian kibbe, and since it all feels so healthful, next thing I know I'm stuffed. Meeting friends there tonight and this time, I'll get an order to go so I can finish my entree!

The staff was so friendly and prompt. They seemed to really care that we were happy. We shared a very nice labny appetizer. Although they had a good Lebanese menu , I was tempted by the fall salad with apples cranberries and nuts. I recommend getting the feta add-on. It was fresh and yummy. It was a good size too, and I took some home. The outdoor dining was lovely with lights strung up. I appreciate that they offer a fun Mock-tail. My daughter got it and enjoyed it. She enjoyed the falafel and my husband loved his kibbee. We will be back.
