Bondir in Cambridge Makes Bon Appetit's List of Best New Restaurants in America

An upscale restaurant in Cambridge that opened last fall has made Bon Appetit's list of best new restaurants in America.

According to the article, Bondir on Broadway is one of 10 dining spots across the United States (and the only one in New England) that was included on the list, in part because of the "remarkable homemade breads," the "homespun" dishes, the "appealing" staff, and the "intimate setting" that makes it feel "like you're eating in grandma's country house." Bondir came in at number 10, with the number 1 restaurant being the Southern eatery Husk in Charleston, SC. While no other New England restaurants made the list, there was one New York spot--M. Wells, a diner in the Long Island City section of Queens.

Bondir first opened in November of 2010, with chef Jason Bond from the Beacon Hill Bistro in Boston being behind the 28-seat New American spot. It took over the space where the Portuguese restaurant Con Sol had been until closing in early 2010.

The address for Bondir is: Bondir, 279 Broadway, Cambridge, MA, 02139. The phone number is (617) 661-0009. And their website can be found at: http://www.bondircambridge.com/
