My parents and I have been subscribers at the Huntington for several years now, so we eat in that neighborhood regularly. There's a parking garage on (Westland?), right next to the Bread & Circus. Dixie Kitchen is a favorite - moderately priced yummy Cajun on Mass. Ave., about a block riverwards past the Christian Science Church. Last time out, we tried A Taste of Asia, just around the corner from Symphony Hall on Huntington Ave. Seems to be Chinese/Vietnamese with a bit of Thai thrown in for good measure - we had a couple of hot-pot dishes (casseroles cooked on rice) that were really delicious - I think we're planning further exploration there next time out. There's a good Indian place on Mass. Ave, also good Thai a few doors down. There's an interesting- looking place that's recently opened up in the place of the now-defunct everyone's-favorite-Thai-in-that-neighborhood across from the parking garage - I'm pretty sure that's Westland Ave. We haven't checked it out yet - it appears to be mostly vegetarian and pretty eclectic. It looks a little pricey, though, at least compared to the other places I've mentioned.
