The restaurant is only as good as the service
Never got a chance to eat. After a twenty + minute wait the hostess whisked in a party of four (not on "The List") ahead of the three hungry parties patiently waiting. Hostess made no attempt to even be discreet about it. Badly done. Will probably never go back.

A good formula begets a good formula. Melissa and Robert Jasper’s original Friendly Toast, located in Portsmouth, N.H., now has an outpost in Kendall Square, Cambridge. Outfitted like a diner, the retro decor in the 150-seat spot is decorated with wall-to-wall kitsch from your grandmother’s attic and old advertisements from the days when they knew how to make them: Sunbeam bread, Esso, Schlitz beer, Dr. Scholl’s, and best of all, a series of lighted panels that go on and off, with a woman showing the advantages of Magic-Cling bras.
