Devra First sings the virtues of neighborhood restaurants in her latest review for the Globe, focusing on The Abbey, the new Porter Square sibling to the Brookline restaurant of the same name. "Dishes here are comfortable yet far from boring, with details that keep them from being stodgy or basic," she writes, also praising the "delicious" burger and the "better than ever" bison bolognese (a riff on a popular dish from Washington Square Tavern, where The Abbey's owners previously worked). Ultimately, she grants it two stars out of four and declares it a "neighborhood asset." [BG]
