Topacio is a hidden gem that serves utterly delicious food with friendly and accommodating service. The Carne Asada is a must-try, grilled and seasoned to perfection. The pupusas are warm and fresh, and the pollo plate with onions is a recommendation. Prices are reasonable, making it a great option for those staying in nearby hotels. While knowing Spanish helps, it's not necessary to communicate with the staff. Be aware of a small service fee for credit card payments.
This neighborhood restaurant offers a simple, welcoming atmosphere. The owner and staff are pleasant and friendly, and they make excellent food. The salsa is unique, very fresh, with a hint of sweet cucumber, making it different from traditional salsa. Customers enjoy dishes like Lengua en Salsa (Beef tongue in sauce) and Higado Encebollado (Liver with sautéed onions). The drinks, including coffee and tamarindo, complement the meals well. The food is great, especially their tacos and atol de elote, considered the best in East Boston. Though it was once located at Meridian, it has moved to Chelsea Street near Santarpios.
