    We love the place- ribs and margaritas. We are sorry our son is graduating from Tufts as we won't get to go any more

    The tables are too packed in. Sitting down, going to restroom etc - everytime you or anyone else moves they bump into you. Uncomfortable. Basically the food is great so you eat fast and leave.
