  PAGU

  310 Massachusetts Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA

  • Spaces for 150-174 Guests
  • 1 Restaurant

  We discussed the possibility of changing one of our three pillars, "Food," to "Cooking" in a meeting with our graphic designer. The goal was to make a more aesthetically and auditorily unified term, but this proposed adjustment couldn't reflect the core and scope of "Food" Because our concept extends much beyond cooking. "Food" encapsulates the warmth, humor, and love shared with family and friends over a meal. When you take the first mouthful of a new dish or ingredient, you get a flutter of excitement in your stomach. Food is the medium through which we share tales and cultivate new friendships. The richness and flavor that we feel through sensory explosion is due to the farmer who devotes his or her days and nights to tending to crops and cattle. The scientist is the one who comes up with new strategies to keep agricultural practices sustainable and impactful. The mother and father are the ones who work numerous jobs to provide a dinner for their family. To put it another way, "food" is more than just something we eat. So, what exactly is PAGU? There are intangible qualities of PAGU that, like "Food," cannot be expressed eloquently or accurately in words. It's not just a restaurant. It's more than a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. PAGU, like our playful and tenacious pug buddy Phoebe, is a dynamic and transforming spirit that encourages our friends and guests to live life to the fullest, both literally and metaphorically. We want to celebrate family, friends, innovation, and creativity, among other things, via food and service. We challenge ourselves to make feel-good homey food that talks to the body and spirit, inspired by our local excursions and trips across the world — something that consistently called to us no matter where we were, regardless of the cuisine. PAGU will work with you to arrange every detail of your rehearsal dinner, wedding reception, or ceremony, from the cuisine to the cocktails, space design, hotel accommodations, and everything in between.

  Porto Boston

  Ring Rd, Boston, MA 02199, USA

  • Spaces for 35-80 Guests
  • 4 Restaurants

  Make your next private gathering one to remember. For gatherings of all sizes and events, Porto provides a range of private and semi-private locations. We’ve got four lovely spaces that you can make your own for your next event. Chef Jody Adams, a James Beard Award winner, closed her Harvard Square restaurant Rialto in 2016 after a remarkable 22-year tenure. Great food, in her opinion, no longer required a nice dining setting. She shifted her focus to the Boston eateries she co-founded with Eric Papachristos, Sean Griffing, and Jon Mendez. TRADE, a bustling restaurant on the Greenway in the financial area, has been shaking since 2011. And since its opening day in 2015, Saloniki, a fast-casual Greek restaurant in the Fenway, has had lines snaking out the door; its Cambridge branch, which is only a year old, is as popular. Finally, guests seeking a taste of Adams' famous Mediterranean meals without the white-tablecloth formality can visit Porto, a full-service restaurant next to Sak's Fifth Avenue that debuted a few months before Rialto shuttered. Adams says, "I never stand still." Adams is most proud of her work campaigning for children's welfare or combating hunger through her support of the Boston Food Bank, despite having a closet full of "best" trophies for her food and restaurants. Share our Strength honored her with the Humanitarian of the Year Award in 2010. She helps create and maintain the hospitality programs for Partners in Health institutions during her regular visits to Haiti. Adams may be at the top of her career right now, but another pinnacle might be right around the corner. In the fall of next year, a third Saloniki will debut in Harvard Square. She isn't standing still at all. In May of 2018, Adams will be admitted into the esteemed James Beard Foundation's "Who's Who" list.
