Stats:

Tips:
  • You'll never see a wine list (binder, really) compiled in such a fresh, wine-lover-focused way. Wine director Matthew Reiser will earnestly convince you to trust your palate.
  • There's a serious lack of parking in the immediate area. Expect to valet your car ($14) on busy nights and weekends, or get validated at three nearby garages.
  • Even if it's not on the menu, a five-course vegan tasting is available five nights a week. Ask and ye shall receive.

From OpenTable: 

Restaurateurs Mary-Catherine Deibel & Deborah Hughes opened UpStairs on the Square in 2002, with its Monday Club Bar serving “casual haute cuisine” and where guests can enjoy award-winning design, fireplace dining, a meal in the playful pink Zebra Room overlooking the park, & a new (2012) open-kitchen Food & Bubbly Bar with small plates, panini grill & pizza oven—-it's open all day. The Soirée Room upstairs (the main dining room), is reminiscent of a glowing & colorful jewel-box supper club, lit with the flicker of two glowing fireplaces at each end of the room. This main dining room serves Chef Susan Regis’ menu that is both artisanal and sexy—featuring seasonal and local ingredients beautifully prepared and served.
There are many options for private dining at UpStairs (call or email events@upstairsonthesquare.com); we specialize in large party reservations.
Because of the restaurant’s two dining rooms, be sure to read your confirmation carefully to confirm your seating preference

Always had a good time here — from a cozy dinner to a corporate event. Although it’s not the absolute best food and service in town, it’s still pretty amazing.

Yummy, Green, and Super Friendly

Definitely one of the best restaurants in Harvard Sq. My friend and I went there to try their special SuperBowl menu. We just got appetizers and drinks, but they were extremely good. The maple-glazed wings especially (though according to…

We were told to come here for the grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch. It was DELICIOUS! This is such a cute restaurant, very artsy and comfortable. We will be back to try other things.
