Message from the Business

Orleans Restaurant and Bar in Somerville offers a unique fusion of downtown sophistication and neighborhood comfort. We think our restaurant is a gem among Somerville and Cambridge restaurants. A newcomer to Davis Square in Somerville, Orleans has already been recognized for its superb cuisine. Our menu presents an exciting selection of dishes that change seasonally to capture the freshest vegetables, meats and seafood. Our full bar features a casual menu that is equally appealing. And our comfortable couches, low tables, and large windows create the perfect setting to relax, visit with friends, and enjoy a drink before or after dinner. Whether you are in for lunch, dinner, or simply lounging at the bar, Orleans is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the very best of Davis Square.

I have frequented Orleans bar and restaurant on many occasions for food and beer and have yet to be disappointed. Last night was no different. We arrived in a party of six and we were promptly seated by the very friendly... (more)

You'd expect this place to be good based on the hip look. The first time I went there, I had bad service. Food was ok, but not worth the price. Second time - bad service, ok food. Third time - bad service (although this... (more)

<b>The Scene</b><br>The curiously-named Orleans offers very little in the way of New Orleans ambience. The understated restaurant features a small bar, an expansive seating area and an informal lounge complete... (more)

I found Orleans online & was intrigued by the Lobster Ravioli & patio seating. Once there I was told the patio was closed, no surprise since there were only 3 more hours of service. I ordered an Alsace Pinot Gris that I... (more)

Orleans is a great local bar/restaurant. Just to clarify previous reviews...it's not named after NEW Orleans, it's name is for Orleans, MA on Cape Cod where the owners have another restaurant. That's why their menu... (more)

Over the years Davis Square has emerged from border line criminal neighborhood, to a semi-hip square. One of the reasons why Davis Square rocks is Orleans. Orleans has only been in Davis for about 5 but is vital to... (more)

We walked in and couldn't figure out if we were to wait to be seated or seat ourselves. The entertainment was on and off. The live "DJ" should not have been doing sound checks and whatever else he was up to during dinner.... (more)

Orleans has a lot to offer. I like the food there and I like to dine in the nice atmosphere of an elegant restaurant but at a much lower price. At the same time it's a good place to get together with your friends for drinks.... (more)

If you haven't been to Orleans in a while, you might not know, but recently you can get some infused vodkas at Orleans. Yes, we all know... bars always try to get fancy shmancy with infused beverages, but this one is... (more)

Orleans in addition to food and drinks is also great for large groups, whether for dinner or just as a party. The restaurant/bar area is very spacious and combining tables is easy. However, if you'd rather not sit... (more)

If you visit Orleans as frequently as I do, you know that the choice of entertainment for the venue are dj's -- and they are pretty good as well. However, recently I discovered that Orleans decided to move into a live... (more)

I've read the reviews and I agree that Orleans is a cool place. One thing that everyone forgot to mention is that they have free wi-fi (unlike all the coffee shops in Davis). Ok, cool, so maybe you'll look a bit like a dork... (more)

Now the the rains have stopped I heard that the patio will be opening soon and that they have made changes this year. I've been there last week and noticed that they put in a door that goes directly from the bar area to the... (more)

I like Orleans as a bar more than a restaurant, although the food is quite decent. I usually just on weekend nights. The place is usually hopping with young adults, and there are barely any students. I recommend the... (more)

People are often confused by Orleans. They go in and don't realize what the place is all about. I must admit, it took me a while before I realized that this place was designed to fulfill every patron's want and need. You... (more)

My friends keep coming back to Orleans for its fabulous mojitos which have a fruity kick to them. I come back for a cold glass of chardonnay and a window seat after work, or for an outdoor appetizer (they commandeer... (more)

Orleans is one of those unique places. Within it you will find a elegant restaurant, a well stocked bar, a casual place to eat, a lounge, or a dance club. Any given night it can be the place for you. Each section is quite... (more)

I've been to Orleans for Bruch, Lunch, Dinner and drinks. It's a spectacular restaurant, with great vibe, fun atmosphere, and very friendly staff. Whenever I go for dinner or any type of a meal I'm treated like I would... (more)

Went to Orleans again last night and they have all the holiday decorations out. It somehow fits the place and it feels like a fun and cozy place to be when it's cold outside. As usual, the food was great, they got few more... (more)
