Little DonkeyB+

505 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139 · New American restaurant, Cocktail bar · Central Square

Lively global-fusion small-plates spot with standout cocktails and several must-try dishes; great vibe and service, but pricing and some dish inconsistency divide diners.

Why this grade

Little Donkey delivers solid neighborhood dining with genuinely attentive service and strong food quality anchored by standout dishes like fried rice and raw bar offerings. However, inconsistent execution—overseasoning, occasional charring, and uneven quality across visits—prevents a higher grade, while pricing can feel steep for portion sizes. The lively, warm atmosphere and inventive global-fusion menu make it competitive with respected local favorites, though it lacks the distinction of premier dining destinations.

One caveat: Some plates run salty, overcharred, or unbalanced
