Miracle of Science Reviews

Quirky theme that fits right into MIT. Great service - attentive and helpful.

Everyone else here is the kind of person who would be at a place called "Miracle of Science Bar and Grill". Or so I suspect (I've never been here)

Love the Miracle, great atmosphere, fun music, awesome service, right next to the middlesex!

The Ronnie Burger is great if you like a little spice in your Burger. If they put bacon on it I would likely order it 3 times a day.

Great fish tacos and burgers. Bar staff are awesome.

Always a fun atmosphere whether it's quiet or packed. Delicious burgers and skewers, with interesting and delicious flavors (though the menu is pretty static). Try the double-skewers for their great sauces.

It was okay. Good prices and tasty food but I wish they'd print out their menus instead of having them online on the wall. Also don't bring napkins with your food apparently...and they forgot to bring my water...so yeah, okay.

A very average bar. Ok food, decent beer selection.

The perfectly cooked grass-fed burger came with stellar roast potatoes

Great atmosphere. Good beer and good grub. Staff are phenomenal. This would be my go to place in central to grab a burger and a beer

Place has been here forever. Sister to Audubon circle with a similar vibe and menu. Burgers are good, but not as amazing as they once were. The potatoes they serve with it are fantastic. Good drinks and tap list.

The food lacks a little bit, however the place has an original science thematic aswell as a good selection of beers. The guys at the entrance are friendly.

Really cozy bar near MIT. Very friendly staff and good service!

You have to check out this place after you walk past the MIT building... The menu is displayed on wall as the peoriodic table... How cool is that !!
Service : quick and pleasant
Food: delicious and fresh
Drinsk: local beers

From the outside this place looks amazing, when I came in the music was on point the staff was friendly and 3 of us were able to be seated even though place was packed. I really enjoyed the ambiance. I was the last to arrive and one of my friends told me they didn't have a paper menu and that instead their menu was on the wall in the form of a Periodic Table if elements... not gonna lie, given it's proximity to MIT and the name of the place I found this be so cool and dope and highly appropriate.

Listen, I'm going to be real with you- I enjoyed the space and the vibe... but the food, or what I had, wasn't the best Mexican food I've had. I'm leaving an honest review so that others know what to expect and hopefully the store can improve! Here goes:

I had the Fish Tacos and Quesadilla- the tacos were good but a bit bland, the cabbage slaw was bitter, however they were very generous with the amount of fish they put in it. The quesadillas were alright. My friend had the Veggie quesadilla and we both shared the same sentiment. Great late night munchy with friends.

A friend had the Kale Salad and said it was phenomenal but the turkey chili was watery but tasty.

I gave 4 stars because although the food was not top notch the staff was friendly and the grill master was type cute. I did not try the Bar side of their Bar and Grill and that's on me- I mean seriously, who goes to a Mexican inspired place and doesn't have a beer...

All in all, great space if you're looking for a drink and some light snacks, I wouldn't go here if you're looking for a full blown dinner.

Great burgers. Not many options. No bacon or anything to add. They give you home fries with the sandwiches which is weird but the tomato chutney is awesome.

Great beer but wasn't even offered a food menu...I was there for lunch but gave up after the lack of bartender presence. I had 2 rounds in an hour

You do not get a food card, but the food is written on a wall like a periodic table. In itself a cool idea, but unfortunately you can not read the written from the other end.
You do not get any drinks or similar, so you do not know how much it costs.
Unfortunately the main problem was the food. I ordered a cheeseburger. The meat I wanted medium. The meat was completely charred and burned out. The burger was thus inedible.
I pointed this out and got a new one. The meat was medium this time, but unfortunately totally charred again.
But the service was very nice.

Cool place! Stopped for a drink after a show at the Middle East (its just a short few blocks away) Their food menu looks like the periodic table Great back bar spirit selection, they are a bit light on draft beer variety though.

Great food. They had a couple of excellent vegetarian options too.

Tiny bar located just outside central sq near MIT. Came here on a Sunday afternoon and was quickly about to get seated. The wait staff was friendly and took drink orders right away. I ended up spliting a few vegetarian items with some freinds all of which were good. We tired the chips and guac as well as the salsa and hummus plate. Everything tasted good and came out quickly. They have several beers on tap as well but the place is very small so it can fill up quick.

Nice selection. Well prepared. Friendly staff. The geeky memue. Good location.

Incredible fast service, great staff, and moderately inexpensive dining!

Good food walking distance to the red line or to Central Square a mighty down the street plenty of parking

Overpriced and still a hostile political playground. Whatever you do, you cannot say your name is donald if it's your real name. I'll never visit again, I get better treatment at Speedway for coffee

Very small venue but great burgers and fast service

Guy running the door was EXTREMELY rude. Never giving my money to this place.

Small place, cool menu on the chemistry chart at the wall. Staffs very friendly.

Good place to grab a beer and enjoy a nice hamburguer! You have to have a good sight because the menu is in a wall in average very far away from each table!

Great flavor and unique menu! The home potatoes are awesome! My family very much enjoyed the burgers, steak, and brunch items. Service was fast and the staff was very attentive.

The burgers are the best! The drinks are generally pretty good too - try the mojito! The decor is nerd classic.

kebabs and burgers are solid. fairly neat decor, menu is on the wall.

Good food and good beer, not too expensive. The waitress were asking a bit too much if it was allright, but that's okay, at least they were friendly.

Fun, quirky place with warm friendly attitude-free service. Good location, nice beer selection. Interesting decor, nice bright space with good light.

Good bar food and beers on tap. The menu is fun and organized like the periodic table

Nice bar that loosely utilizes the science theme for their menu and some interesting table shapes

Great food for drinking. Grilled potato app, quesodilla, and things like that. Great beer list. The best Dark & Stormy in Boston!

This place should have a nice shtick. It has the name, the Cambridge location, the "periodic table" menu... but beyond that it's just an overpriced dive bar. A server griped at my friend for sitting too far down the bar (don't put a stool there then, eh?), my (veggie) burger was overpriced and mediocre and my friend's non-veggie was also overpriced and mediocre, and the beer selection was just enough to get by on. A full bar could have some nice signature cocktails (to, you know, go with the name) or some specialty hard A, but no. There are plenty of dive bars in Cambridge and next time I'll go somewhere with cheaper food and better service.

I'd rate it a solid "okay." Was pretty loud when I went for dinner around 6 on a Friday, which isn't really my thing. Had the cheeseburger and home fries, they were good (burger in particular was nice and juicy), but not really as good as I'd expect from a $13 burger.

Fresh tasty grass-fed burger with a couple of pints, lively tunes, and quick and friendly service. What more could one ask for?

This bar has a great vibe and a very friendly wait staff. We only had drinks, so I'm not sure if the food is any good.

Came because of the theme. Was disappointed that it was simply a periodic table menu on the wall. Was hoping for more unique menu items or decorations. Nothing noteworthy about the food.

Fun and unique bar. Chips and guacamole were good. Could have used a little more salt/spice in the guac. Mojito was 50% too limey, unless you re into that kind of thing. Service was friendly and attentive. If you go on a nice evening, sit by the large open window.

Food was okay but the service could use some polishing. Having never been there before we asked for menus when we sat down and the waiter seemed quite put out that we didn't know the menu was on the wall and we didn't immediately know what we wanted. He never checked up on us (ran out of water) then after we paid and were talking while finishing our beers, he comes up and asks us to move since the table next to us had extra people show up. We left and won't be back.

Cramped with a limited selection. Trying so hard to be hipster that it gets in the way of the actual experience.

they have very tasty burgers and the service is very quick.

Good place to have quick lunch and also reasonably priced.

Amazing burger ($11.50 with a heaping pile of blue cheese + home fries) and great beers on tap (Notch IPA, Mayflower Porter). The periodic table menu on the wall is a fun touch, and the staff is friendly and attentive.

Every time I order something new here it's better than I expected it to be

Great presentation, but food is only OK. There are better priced burger and meat-on-a-stick joints that cost less money.

Slow service, tasty burgers. Not the best in Camberville, but pretty good.

My girlfriend and I stumbled across this place completely by accident at 11pm after a concert. It was the happiest accident in a long time.
The environment is upbeat but casual, with friendly staff and a unique vibe. Their menu is a chalboard in the form of the Periodic table--and boy is there some good food.
My veggie quesadilla was HUGE and jam-packed with cheese and and and finely chopped zuccini, mushrooms, peppers and onions with a hefty side of salsa.
My (insanely picky) girlfriend ordered the burger, medium-rare, that came with a side of homefries. She has not been this excited about a burger in a long time and is already planning our next trip back. The burger was perfectly cooked amd served on a fresh roll. The homefries were also delicious: perfectly cooked, crispy, and flavorful. I always compare restaurant homefries to my own and these were quite close.
I would HIGHLY recommend Miracle of Science to anyone looking for a quick bite of great, inexpensive food at a unique place. Will absolutely come again.

The atmosphere of the shop is wonderful ^ ^
I think it would be better to come from the MIT Museum!

Good food but I think meals could be a little bit more inventive...hence the name

Food was nice, quite empty on a mid week evening. Nice staff.

Makes me homesick just thinking about it -- good place for MIT grad students, start-up late-nights -- good food, too --

It's a good quality pub; simple food, good bar, nothing too fancy.

Gone down hill through the years. Loud and overcrowded and the service nothing to write home about. Years ago was a good place, not anymore. Not terrible but certainly not good either

The bartender spilled a drink on a customer's pizza while she was in the bathroom and they did not let the customer know.

Terrible beer list.

Tiny bar in Central with a science theme. Good beer selection.

Great fast and affordable food with a great atmosphere.

Quirky little bar for brunch and drinks. Love the period table menu inspired black board. Food is really well thought but think they can invest a bit more on the drinks one.

Confusing menu and beer is over the door, but very dear to my heart as a place for MIT and Harvard students. Probably easier to walk from Central T-stop. The brownie is the best!

Good service, decent selection on tap, food is good, too

Service was impeccable at this unassuming bar with kitchen. Place was packed but it never felt like we were in need of anything, the servers were attentive and very prompt. Food was really enjoyable.

They serve up great burgers and manage to always have some good craft beer on draught. Breakfast is also quite good, I'm partial to the breakfast burrito. The restaurant is a fun and cozy atmosphere too.

Food was good and waitstaff friendly. I like the idea of not having menus; less paper wasted and I don t have to touch something hundreds of other people have. Loved the periodic table incorporated into the menu too. No negatives, but wasn t blow away either.
