In Short
Black-clad waiters and bartenders scurry about the handsomely decorated (dark wood tables, leather banquettes, warm lighting) dining room. Tables out front offer a limited view of busy JFK Street. Expect a straightforward menu of upscale bar snacks and standard entrees. Appetizers are good and large enough to share; bruschetta includes an endless pile of fresh tomatoes, while the marinated beef salad features lime- and ginger-soaked steak over cold lo mein noodles and roasted peppers.

Overpriced microwave dogfood. With so many great restaurants in the area, why on earth would you go here? This is also literally the worst club in Harvard.

Good spot for after-work drinks or a solid bite to eat. I've been many times late at night, which is fun, but it's a little known fact that redline is actually really fun on the earlier side. I love the duck lollipops and and Asian burrito - they also have a great cocktail list (Buddah's Zen is my new go-to).

Stopped in at the suggestion of a friend and was NOT disappointed. The truffle mac&cheese is to die for and they have an incredible lineup of DJs. The bar was hopping too. Staff and wait service was excellent. Very accesible through pub. transportation and street parking is avail. Check it out.
