“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.“

“I saw a Tiktok about Merengue Express and couldn't let it pass without trying it out. And let me tell you, I am glad that I did because the food was AMAZING! I ordered the spanish rice of the day which was Congri (black rice with black beans), Oxtails and Maduro (sweet plantain). The portion for my Merengue bowl was HUGE and for a reasonable price! I even shared with my coworker because I knew I wasn't going to finish it alone. I did a delivery with UberEats and one thing that sucks was that they didn't have Oxtails as a protein choice for their Merengue bowls but I did leave a message asking if they could replace the beef steak with oxtails and they did!!! I will definitely be ordering from Merengue Express again. Thank you! :)“

“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.“

“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.“

The environment was very clean (you can smell clean) and cordial during past business & social gatherings also. The Owner & all Employees provided superior customer service. My Allston Neighbors & I love their home made soup with the big size fresh vegetables. Most importantly, El Carrizal is not like other restaurants where they don't allow substitution on their dishes.“

I don't know what else to say, other than to say that this is the best Spanish food place I've ever ordered from. Given that I am pregnant, they make sure I get exactly what I want to eat; they even made chicken soup for me because I have a celery allergy. I genuinely love this place and will never stop ordering from them.“
