Alice & Monarch to Open in Cambridge's Kendall Square

It looks like a dual-concept spot is on its way to Cambridge.

According to posts within the jobs section of the bostonchefs.com site, Alice & Monarch are planning to open at an as-of-yet undisclosed location in Kendall Square. The listings say that Alice will be a Mediterranean-inspired taverna on the main level of the space (with an emphasis on Italian fare) while Monarch will be found through a long hallway on the lower level and will be an elevated cocktail and small plates lounge that will also have space for private events.

No other information has been given as of yet for Alice & Monarch, so check back for updates as they come in. (It looks like the website for Alice will be at https://alicecambridge.com/)
