Gargoyles on the Square, located in Somerville’s recently revitalized Davis Square, offers creative, award-wining American cuisine with French influences sans the pretentious prices.

The delightful, somewhat upscale neighborhood establishment has evolved into one of Boston’s top restaurants without losing is local flair – which explains the “Best Neighborhood Restaurant” awards it receives annually. With its floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Elm Street in the lounge and its quiet, velvet-curtained, candlelit dining room, the beautiful restaurant is funky, relaxed and fun.
