Looking for coastally inspired fare from a celebrated local chef in the heart of Harvard Square? All signs point to Waypoint, chef Michael Scelfo’s second addition to the bustling Cambridge neighborhood. The menu directs diners to the water with thoughtfully sourced and creatively prepared seafood dishes, and a raw bar of daily crudo, oysters, urchin, caviar service and more. Grains are house-milled for pizza and pasta, created fresh every day, and roasts are available for those looking to share. At the 24-seat bar, Alden & Harlow beverage director Seth Freidus works seasonal ingredients into the cocktail glass, alongside pours from the copper absinthe tap. Wine director Jen Fields handles the vineyard side of things, with a focus on coastally sourced varietals that pair well with seafood. Waypoint is open for dinner daily from 5:00-11:00pm with a late-night menu running 11:00pm to midnight. Follow your compass to 1030 Mass Ave for a taste of the culinary skill that’s put Scelfo on the map.
