Made it to Clover (Harvard Square) the other day and it was good enough to make omnivores stray.
Ambiance: Imagine the inside of an Apple store. Clean, modern, straight out of unhappy hipsters. The entire joint is run on iPod touch. No, seriously, it is. You walk-in, tell someone what you want, they type it into their iPod, you pay, someone in the kitchen gets the order on their iPod and shortly after, your food is ready.
Variety: It's a vegetarian restaurant. I liked the fact that the menus were written on little white boards. This gave me the impression that the menus change frequently and are kept seasonal.
Quality: The meal cost roughly $10 and included a chickpea burger and rosemary fries. I wasn't the biggest fan of the cole slaw they used, but it added the right texture and my friends that ordered the same thing liked it a lot. To each his own, I suppose. I feel like a hypocrite for not being more jazzed about this place. I will say that the friends I went with are both ardent omnivores and wanted to come back to this place.
Bottom line: If you're in the square and want a change of scenery, the place is worth checking out. I'm definitely going back soon!
