31 Best Latin American Restaurants in Boston

“Went for pre-dinner drinks. Had stylish wide leg jeans and a beanie (it was 9 degrees out). All good until our server told us we were only allowed in because they were not busy and jeans and a beanie were not their vibe. They were more going for a Miami nightclub vibe. It was 6 pm - in Boston We were one of two tables there. Unnecessary information.“

“Beautifully designed restaurant!! I was visiting the bank and thought let me stop in. I always wanted to, but because of
parking I would keep going.
I am so glad I stopped !!
The woman in the front was extremely nice and helpful . I normally hate to ask what is your favorite cause they’ll tell you anything right?
Well, she told me her favorite was the chicken , let me tell you tender and falling off the bone lots of gravy & flavor, dirty, rice, and peas and mixed vegetable. Everything was so moist full of flavor the veggies had a nice little crunch to it. Completely satisfied.💕“

“This place had the best chicken Parmesan we had ever eaten. I’m so glad we stumbled upon this place that was not too far from our hotel. Our waitress was so kind and attentive.“

“Las mejores empanadas ,deliciosas 👌👏“

“Great place for date night.“

“This is a “spanish” bar first and foremost. They have small tables if you want to sit and have something to eat. The interior needs a big time refresh but don't judge the place by it's appearance. The beer is cold and very affordable. The food is GREAT!! If you like typical Colombian food - this place is a home run!! Did I mention that the beer was cold and very affordable??! :-) It would get 5 stars from me if the interior wasn't so old.“

“Always great food and energetic atmosphere! Love my Latino family😊“

“The empanadas here are to die for. They're so delicious when they're hot and fresh from the fryer. I'm usually not patient enough to wait but when I do it's so worth it. They have a wide selection of empanadas so there's something for everyone. The staff are nice and they have a delivery/pick up service. The empanadas are large and have a flaky yummy crust. They also have tons of juices to choose from. The food may seem pricey but it's totally worth it. 10/10 would recommend supporting this local minority owned restaurant.“

“I ordered my daughters 6th birthday cake from La Casa Del Pandebono and it literally the best experience I’ve ever had with any business. Not only was the custom cake beautiful and delicious, they provided a level of exceptional customer service that I didn’t even know existed. The “Tangled” cake included a beautiful edible gold crown as it’s center piece, and it was packaged separately. Despite my best efforts to handle it carefully, I accidentally broke it the night before the birthday party. I texted the owner asking if he has recommendations for me to reassemble it (knowing it was unlikely, but I was desperate). He immediately responded and asked for my address, letting me know he’d deliver a new one when he closed the store (I live in another town). I was shocked at his generosity and beyond grateful. As an expression of gratitude, a sent him an additional tip which he politely attempted to reject (I wouldn’t allow it…haha). In return, he delivered not only the grown, but an order of birria tacos and an empanada (which I was admiring when I went to pick up the cake) - literally the best tacos I’ve ever had. I cannot emphasize how touched I was by this experience. La Casa Del Pandebono is a rare gem - baked goods that are truly a work of art, and incredible food that is only surpassed by the unbelievable customer service. I will be a customer for life.“

The food at Punto Rojo truly stands out. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can tell that the kitchen takes pride in both the quality and presentation of their plates. The flavors were authentic and well-balanced, and the portions were generous without being overwhelming. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy traditional dishes made with care, and every bite highlights the restaurant’s passion for good food.

I also appreciated the efficient service. Despite the restaurant being busy, the staff managed everything smoothly and always made time to answer questions or offer recommendations. Their professionalism and positive attitude made the entire experience even better.

Overall, Punto Rojo exceeded my expectations in every way. With delicious food, outstanding service, and an inviting atmosphere, it’s a restaurant I would gladly return to and highly recommend to anyone looking for great Latin cuisine in East Boston.“

“Tiny, inexpensive ,no frills place with friendly young staff serving up classic Dominican tostados, toasted sandwiches. Takeout only, but they have plenty of outdoor seating.
