We ordered takeout five times last week—that’s how much we want to be supporting our local restaurants. So as the bad news drags on pretty much across the board, there’s one good thing you can keep doing: putting your money where your mouth is. If you’re anything like us, you’ve been leaning pretty heavily on your old faves these days, but there’s also no better time to check out some of the city’s newest entries. Yes, believe it or not, recent times have still yielded several exciting openings, from a downtown Middle Eastern spot to a no-nonsense ramen bar to a brand-new Italian takeout option from a favorite Cambridge chef. And if you’re still hungry, keep scrolling for our current lineup of other newer places to get your eat on—with apologies to all the greats that have made the hard decision to hibernate for the winter.
