Reviews for NU Kitchen Somerville in Somerville, MA
The staff was super friendly and there's a lot of vegetarian and vegan options too so that's great! You can even veganize stuff... that isn't which is also super cool. I took the vegan tacos and wasn't a fan unfortunately. The scrambled tofu tasted bland andsince there was only avocado and some sauce beside the tofu I didn't really eat much. The smoothie was super good though!! Read more
What an incredible morning delight! Finally had my first vegan waffle and boy was it delicious. Every bite was a perfect blend... of soft and crunchy. Huge props to one of the servers who made it - she absolutely nailed it. What made the waffle even betterwas that the individual grains and superfoods could be felt and tasted. In addition, the chocolate fudge sauce complemented thesweetness of the granola and maple syrup. ***important note: the waffle is good enough for two people - I had trouble finishingthe entire thing and I consider myself a heavy eater ????*** ALSO, BIG props to Isabel who customized my bagel sandwich. Shewas a great hostess from the start and was active to help me learn the menu at 07:30 in the morning. On top of that, she packedin an Impossible patty, JustEgg, spinach, cucumbers, mushrooms, and pesto sauce all in between two bagels WITHOUT havinganything spill out! I struggle to do that with even three add-ons, so major props to Isabel. ***Keep hiring people like her, NUKitchen!!*** Read more
I had a great experience here. Breakfast sandwich with bacon egg and cheese on ciabatta was amazing and coffee was good. The... inside is very large and comfortable as well. Read more
Tried this place for the first time due to the overall good reviews and decent number of vegetarian options. Ordered the SoCal... smoothie which was delicious, lemonade which was also very good and scones. The scones were probably the worst scones I've everhad in my entire life. I have had the good fortune of eating scones in Scotland and from many other Scottish friends. Firstlythey're round in shape but I can ignore that. They are either unsweetened or very slightly sweetened and most importantlythey're plain! They're plain because they're usually eaten with cream and jam or butter and jam. The scones I got from NUkitchen were so thoroughly loaded in cinnamon and sugar that it was impossible to taste anything else. I will never understandthe American obsession with cinnamon but that's a whole other topic. The scones were dry and crumbly and not moist at all, whichis the opposite of what a good scone should be like. It's a shame because the SoCal smoothie was so perfectly balanced in termsof sweetness that I know that at least they do understand how to not make everything sugary! Read more
Salad was good . However added short ribs, which was thin an overcooked. Did not get the value. Had one of their juices it was... ok but not worth the high price, which almost equal to my meal. I do not believe they have good ventilation, because myclothing smelled like their kitchen when I got home. Interesting menu, good idea, poorly executed. Read more
Love this place! There are so many great vegan/vegetarian/pescatarian/GF options for you to find at NU Kitchen, it?s definitely... become my favorite spot for clean eating & non stop smoothie runs here in Massachusetts. Can?t wait to come back more often totry this entire menu that?s suitable for my dietary needs! Read more
I was disappointed. After circling for a while trying to get parking, the place was disorganized, the counter person didn't know... the menu or the ingredients, the waiting area (because I couldn't find parking and had to get take out) was noisy due to aconstantly running blender. When I finally got my order (dropped off by someone with no time for questions) it was HALF a wrapwith one piece of sausage, what looked like a single egg instead of the three listed on the menu, topped with grilled onions,mushrooms and pesto. Sounded delicious on the menu board, tasted greasy and wet. Probably won't go back. Read more
