Editorial Review for Miracle of Science Bar + Grill – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
A minimalist, geometric decor is host to the photo of patron saint Albert Einstein as well as the chipboards and machinery that crown the bar. MIT grads socialize with professors and engineers from neighboring high-tech companies over quietly sophisticated, nicely priced fare. Sides include sweetly soured pickled red onion and an ambitious if cilantro-deficient black bean and corn salad. The roasted red potatoes and tomato chutney are an inventive alternative to fries and ketchup.

This has been one of my favorite bars in the country for almost a decade. I don't even know if it was called Miracle of Science the first time I went here--at the time, the place was completely unmarked outside. My family was in the Boston area on vacation, and we ended up eating here for three days straight. In fact, my wife and mother found the place. Good food, inexpensive, simple unfussy decore. Have come back every time I've been in Boston, and it is always worth the trip. Expect to drop by Tuesday and Wednesday this week!

The Miracle of Science is a great local Cambridge bar and grill that has a loyal following. During the week and weekend lunch time is very busy and you often can't find a seat after 12. The beer selection is average, with enough choices that you'll find something you like. The burgers are exceptional (try the one with jalepenos infused into it) as is the chicken quesadilla. My only complaint on the food is that I like their salsa so much that I always finish it before I finish my chips.

Pros: Food

Cons: Parking, Seating
