Made a list of every independent restaurant in Cambridge
I kept wanting to look up whether a place had ever been reviewed or won anything, and there's no good way to do that. Eater redoes their list every year and the old one's gone (and the quality is a bit iffy after the layoffs last year). Globe reviews are paywalled and you can't search by restaurant. So I made this.
It's every independent place to eat in Cambridge, 390 of them, from the city's permit list. So it's got the bakeries and the dive bars, not just the ones people write about.
Where a place has been reviewed or nominated for something, it shows the history with links out. Michelin, James Beard, Globe reviews, NYT. Oleana's got 14 years of Beard nominations on there.
Most places have no citations, which just means none of those four wrote about them. It does sort them into tiers which is obviously some editorial opinion on there
Probably got some stuff wrong, let me know
EDIT: Thanks for checking it out everyone! Just added squares in addition to neighborhoods since that's how we actually think about things. Added a best first try, and where exactly central stops and Inman ends (Lamplighter?) maybe is a taste thing but let me know
