I was loving brunch here until the staff came over after an hour to ask us to leave because people were waiting for a table. I was with friends I hadn't seen in a while we were really enjoying catching up. We were all... (more)

I have never been treated so rudely by anyone never mind the owner of the place. After waiting for our food for over an hour the owner was so rude to us we decided not to leave a tip. He chased us out in the street swearing at... (more)

Yes there is a line. Yes Yasser is abrupt. And yes, you won't find too many better breakfast joints around. The omlettes are fluffy, filled with flavorful fresh ingredients and not sitting in a pool of butter/grease.... (more)

I've been going to Sound Bites with a group of friends for the last few years. We have always been welcomed and treated as warmly as a new face walking through the door. The owner is very polite and really makes sure... (more)

First let's start off with the long wait, getting fake smiles from the staff, and then the rushed service (if you even want to call it service). Food is bland and nothing really wows your taste buds especially for the... (more)

The first thing i ever heard upon moving to Somerville was to try this "fantastic" brunch place. But let me tell you, there is not one thing good about this place. The staff is horrible, and i have worked in the... (more)

Food was OK nothing great, wait was long, there was no room to move inside, we were seated by the window which was freezing. Owner was very rude as we waited for our food. Our neighbors got their food, ate it and left and we... (more)

I used to live right down Broadway, so I've been here many, many times. They've recently renovated and moved next door to where they used to be. It makes for a much nicer dining experience, though the service is about... (more)

There is no other place I would wait nearly an hour for outside in the dead of winter. There's a reason why people line up and wait against the elements to eat here. Ole omelette with garlic mashers - I love you.... (more)

This is the absolute best place to eat breakfast or lunch. Yasser is a great proprietor and he's worth the price of admission. The waffle is to die for and the 2+2+2 Breakfast is terrific. Don't be fooled by negative... (more)

Simply the best, freshest breakfast near Davis Square. Omlettes, waffles, and some of the best coffee around. Those who complain of rude service and long waits simply do not understand the Soundbites Mystique of... (more)

When I first moved to Somerville I couldn't stop hearing the buzz for this place. As a huge brunch fan, I checked it out the first chance I had. I was sorely disappointed. THinking it was a fluke, I've been back twice... (more)

As others have said, Sound Bites will never disappoint in terms of their fabulous breakfast offerings. However, depending on what type of atmsophere you're looking for - Sound Bites may disappoint. If you go on a... (more)

This place is great for breakfast, brunch, or early lunch. Their home fries, instead being typical diner cut potatoes, are mashed and mixed with sour cream--tastes more delicious than it sounds! Your meal also... (more)

I confess: I have never been to Soundbites on the weekend. I've heard too many stories about people getting rushed out, berated for bringing a newspaper or children, and having no time to enjoy their meal. I am here to... (more)

As others have said Soundbites is not the place to go if you want to take your time. The restaurant is very small and the tables are packed in close together. You will have to trip over other tables to get to your seat. The... (more)

In addition to having a very mediocre meal we were horrified by the fact that the manager threw out a table of customers for taking too long to order. He then proceeded to scold the entire dining room for being lazy... (more)
