Restaurateurs Mary-Catherine Deibel and Deborah Hughes have found a new home and a new name for the much-missed UpStairs at the Pudding. UpStairs on the Square occupies another former Harvard club, built in 1906 on Winthrop Square, in the heart of Harvard Square.

The multi-floored restaurant is distinguished with decorative painting in tones of coral and gold leaf. Wonderful leopard and zebra patterned carpets wrap the floors and fanciful sconces and mirrors adorn the walls.

The first floor features a large, wood-paneled Monday Club Bar where guests can enjoy sweeping views of the Square while they sip and sup on chef Susan Regis' "casual haute cuisine" in front of two working fireplaces. Overlooking the park, there is a sun-filled, sky-lit veranda room, full of light and a look at the life of the Square beyond.

The UpStairs main dining room (Soirée Room), is reminiscent of a glowing and colorful jewel-box-like supper club, is lit with the flicker of working fireplace at each end of the room. Clearly an heir to the celebratory dining room at the Pudding, it is the province of chef Amanda Lydon and her beautiful fine dining menu with seasonal ingredients exquisitely prepared and served.

Throughout the restaurant, UpStairs on the Square prides itself on serving hand-crafted, finely-tuned dishes, menus that balance taste with texture and food with carefully selected wines.

A series of wine tastings and wine dinners happen every Wednesday night. Upstairs provides flexible and festive private rooms for any size event.

Take a look inside!
