    My family's day trip to visit Harvard and MIT campuses was a train wreck, but Curio was the only saving grace It's a small shop and if one group is talking loudly, it's loud, but if everyone is talking normally, it's a really calm environment. The coffee, and especially the leige waffle, were fantastic.

    The cannoli waffle got me. Usually I don't revisit a place (especially this soon) unless it has a chokehold on me since I like to experience new places, but I saw an ad for the cannoli waffle, which was a weekend special only for the month of February, and it sounded so good that I had to come back. Had I gone on a Saturday instead of a Friday last time, I probably would not have been back twice in two weeks since my last experience was just ok. Despite the "no laptop" policy on weekends, there was still a decent amount of people, and a few were still working (just without laptops). My order took 5-6 minutes to prepare again. At $6.50, the cannoli waffle was more expensive than the everything with cream cheese waffle that I got last time. For the size and effort of these waffles, I feel like these should be priced at $5 tops. The texture of the waffle was consistent with my last experience: crunchy on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside. I like how the corners are like the the burnt edges of a brownie (aka the best part). The cannoli cream, however, was a letdown. The texture was mildly chunky and more like oatmeal than the thick cream you would find in a traditional cannoli, which was odd. I also feel like the chocolate chips would have elevated the waffle more had they been used as a filling rather than a topping. I enjoyed the everything with cream cheese waffle that I had last time more and probably would have preferred a plain waffle over this cannoli waffle. Conclusion: The waffles are good and worth trying, but skip on the cannoli waffle if you see it. I also feel like I can't give a 5 until I try their coffee again (and like it), given the name of this place.

    Yummy waffle, so warm and chewy with light crispy crunch on outside. The chocolate was so gooey and liquid. You can definitely taste the tahini flavor and it wasn't too sweet at all. Perfect snack! The inside was pretty small and any party bigger than 2 would likely have trouble finding a spot inside. The servers were really friendly and nice though! Service was also decently quick.
