32 Best Latin American Restaurants in Boston

“Nice place that attracts a good mixed crowd. Super intimate vibe! The food and cocktails are both highlights here. My favorite was the salmon tiradito with tiger milk and the chicken skewers were great. This might be an unclassy take but I wish the elote came with some hot Cheeto dust! But overall great flavors, especially in the dips.

Will be back to try the pork belly skewers and to go downstairs!“

“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.💕“

“Great place for date night.“

“During a recent visit, I had the distinct pleasure of experiencing a charming establishment, ideally situated on a corner. The overall ambiance was exceptionally welcoming, setting a very positive tone for the entire experience. I was particularly impressed by the exemplary customer service provided by a staff member, whose consistent affability and genuinely pleasant demeanor significantly enhanced my visit. Furthermore, the empanadas, were truly outstanding, distinguished by their authentic and artisanal quality, strongly reminiscent of a homemade preparation. This establishment undoubtedly provides a superior product coupled with excellent service.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Es la segunda vez que vengo aqui, la comida está excelente y el ambiente es muy amigable. Definitivamente regresaré!“

“I recently visited Punto Rojo in East Boston, and my experience was exceptional from beginning to end. As soon as I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff made me feel right at home. The team was attentive, professional, and consistently checked in to ensure that everything was meeting my expectations.

The restaurant offers a warm and vibrant environment that reflects the richness of Latin cuisine. The space was clean, well-organized, and comfortable—perfect for enjoying a relaxed meal with friends or family.

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.“

“I was pleasantly surprised for a hotel restaurant breakfast. The coffee was delicious, on the stronger side of my taste but still great. I had the Cuban breakfast sandwich: think egg McMuffin with Cuban pork and jamón and pickles. Fantastic! The potatoes were well crisped and seasoned as well. As for atmosphere, we were there early and were the only table so I can’t really tell you but the decor was nice and I could see it be a fun spot later in the day.“

“I adore this place so much, and the rice is incredible. Wonderful chicken soup The staff will make sure you get exactly what you want. 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.“
