Help! I know where to get tasty ethnic food in the Central/Harvard area and I know where to get good cocktails, but I don't know restaurants that serve both! Are there good Thai, Indian, Middle Eastern, Chinese, Japanese, etc spots with cocktail programs?

My friend and I want to go out for a fun night of yummy food and drinks in the area and I need your help picking a good choice.

My office was hoping to get sushi delivered tomorrow for lunch and we were hoping someone might suggestions for a good place near Fenway. Our first thoughts were Umi or Ginza but I have have heard mixed reviews about both. Anyone have great or terrible experiences at them? What would you recommend?

We all thank you!!

If you own a coffee roasting company (so cool!) you will especially appreciate Simon's Coffee Shop...they pull the best shots in Boston and Cambridge.

I have to disagree that Diesel is great coffee-good but not great. The only place I know of to get a truly outstanding coffee is Simon's Coffee Shop on Mass Ave between Harvard and Porter Square. They use George Howell beans (he is considered to be one of the finest 3 roasters in the country).
Enjoy!
