restaurant name help

Talking about huevos rancheros with my sister. She asked me if the meal I was talking about was as good as those we used to have at a restaurant on huron ave in cambridge (where Full Moon is now),
It moved to Belmont Center lasting a year or two. Anyone remember the name before I lose my mind??? Thanks!

      I'm pretty sure it was on Huron Ave because my sister was living in Brighton at the time and we would meet there to stand on line for brunch. It was small with terrific food. They expanded into a big space in Belmont Center (where the Thai restaurant is now). Then they went out of business after about a year(?). They could have been in another space before Huron before I knew about the restaurant.

        I recall eating there in the mid 90's in Belmont Center near the old Filene's, then on Huron after my friends had kids in the 2000's.

        But I'm often addled.

        I did like the place, though

          Pentimento was first on Huron then moved to Belmont, where it closed in a year or so.

          In the Huron Ave space, After Pentimento, Otto's opened there. After Otto's, it became Full Moon. I'm pretty sure it was Full Moon in the early 2000s to present day.

          Ah, Pentimento -- used to be a great place for brunch. Their scones were so tasty!
