“Amazing food and staff. Mi primera vez y no sera la ultima. Muchas gracias por su gran atencion y ambiente super agradable y seguro. La musica en vivo es un super + excelente el Grupo El Grupo Chevere. Me encanto el Ceviche peruano, el Expresso Martini super rico.“

“I happen to be working in the area the day I stopped in for a bite. Little did I know this was going to be become my go to spot for the foreseeable future. Not only is the food awesome, the service was great and it was so clean you could eat off the floor. You can tell whoever owns it, truly loves what they do.“

“I didn't have the chance to try their food, but I saw a few dishes come out of the kitchen and they looked delicious.
The atmosphere is very pleasant and the attention is wonderful.
Today we had the pleasure of having two delicious papelon with lemon courtesy of the house. Grateful?????“

“So yummy and fresh! Didn’t mind the wait because I came right at lunch when there were a lot of preordered food. The fresh juice was delicious too. Definitely more flavorful and delicious than going to subway next door!The chef was very friendly too, felt homey!

Kid-friendliness: Friendly staff

Wheelchair accessibility: Might be difficult to get in/maneuver“

“We came here for dinner. Service was good. Staff was helpful and friendly. We tried the Birria Taco, Fish Taco, Shrimp Taco, pork taco, Nachos steak fried, Pupuas and Churros. The Birria taco was juicy and tender. Pupuas was cheesy and delicious. We also tried some tequila and margaritas. Everything was great. Would come back“

“Can’t rate this place high enough! Clean, friendly service, abundance of options, but the food? The food is beyond incredible! Had the breakfast tacos and my husband had the Colombian breakfast. Omg, it was incredible!“

“I have eaten here many times and the food is incredible. While the bowls are fairly expensive, they’re not much more than a Chipotle or Qdoba bowl and they give you way more food. The food is delicious, I especially love their maduros. The lady working the counter when I’ve been is incredibly nice! Their coffee and juices are also very good and they make it right in front of you. Would highly recommend for Dominican food“

“This was my six-year-old’s choice for his birthday dinner! We used to frequent the South End location and since that one closed, we got delivery from Brookline. He wanted to write a review. His review is ‘they are the best cookers in the world.’ He also wants to give the meal seven stars. The food was great as usual! My go-to is the pabellon criollo, delicious and filling! Will have to come by and dine in soon.“

“Gran Sabor PUERTO Riqueño un buen servicio , al cliente muy exquisitos sabor y las alcapurrias, no salamente te comes una compras mas de tan ricas que son ,muy profecionales en atender con recpeto.“

“Bocadillos catered my daughter's college graduation party in our home. The food dictated the theme! Year after year, my daughter has followed their "Empanda Truck" at the Snow Port in Boston. Last winter, she insisted that I go too, just so I could taste the empanadas. They were absolutely mouth wateringly delicious!!!! So much so that when it came time to choose who would cater her grad party, the choice was easy! Since Carribean/Latin American food was the menu, we complimented it by hosting a full blown Fiesta with a margarita bar and more for 40 people! We had the food prepared in advance and everything was delicious and piping hot! Our host/chef added to the fastivities with his knowledge of the food, his kindness, and his sense of humor. The cost was very reasonable as well. WARNING: Once you have these empanadas, you will never be able to eat anyone elses again.

Vegetarian options: My favorite empanada is vegetarian!!! And I'm not a vegetarian. My favorite is the corn & cheese, and my second favorite is the black bean.“

“Muqueca Restaurante é simplesmente o melhor dos melhores restaurantes com a melhor culinária de comidas típicas Brasileira que tem aqui 🇺🇸! Tudo de primeira qualidade feito com amor ! Atendimento excelente, preços não vou nem falar,somente vocês indo lá para comer e saberá! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Although not the classical recipes for Tacu Tacu or Locro, their interpretation of both dishes were superb. The Causa Limeña was indeed very much like the original Causa limeña and their Peruvian drinks and deserts (Suspiro Limeño and Lúcuma Mousse) were absolutely fabulous. Gonzalo, our server was awesome!“

“Las mejores empanadas ,deliciosas 👌👏“

“Great place for date night.“

“La Fabrica Central is one of my Latino cuisine restaurants in MA. I’m never disappointed. This time, a group of 5 people went to celebrate a birthday and everyone left so happy and satisfied.

The food is always delicious and the presentation is on point! Recently, our group of people ordered different dishes so we could try different things. The salmon with passion fruit sauce, ceviche mixto, mofongo con camarones, y la chuleta kan kan were delicious. I don’t eat pork, but the chuleta kan kan looked so good that I had to try it. Wow, it was cooked to perfection! The meat was so moist and the skin/cuerito was so good. Every single dish was delicious. The tres leche cake was delicious and the staff sang happy birthday. Throughout the visit, the staff was very attentive and fast.

As a bonus, they have live Latin music on the weekends and you can dance if you wish. They earned their 5 stars! ⭐️“

“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.“

“Best empanadas in town! I love the argentina the most but all are delicious. Quick service and friendly people in a great location! Highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: The meatless empanadas are uniquely tasty!

Kid-friendliness: Options that even kids will love“

“This authentic Brazilian restaurant delivers an outstanding culinary experience with flavorful, well-prepared dishes that truly reflect Brazil’s rich food culture. The natural juices are especially refreshing and made fresh to order, perfectly complementing the vibrant meals. A must-visit for anyone craving genuine Brazilian flavors.“

“I took my mom to tita’s kitchen for dinner and we both enjoyed it so much. We could smell the aroma of the restaurant from down the street. It smelled so delicious! The food definitely lived up to the great smells. We got tacos and a carne asada plate. I will be back and I will recommend anyone to visit Tita’s Kitchen for some yummy authentic Guatemalan/Mexican food. 5 out of 5 stars!“

“Todo muy bueno y la atención de primera“

“I had the opportunity to enjoy lomo saltado and chicharrón with tostones at "El Kiosko." The flavor combination was exceptional, highlighting the juiciness of the lomo and the crispness of the chicharrón. The presentation was impeccable, and each bite reflected the attention to detail in the kitchen. I definitely give it a 5/5. A highly recommended culinary experience.

“Delicious with quick friendly service. Gracias“

“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.“

“(Translated by Google) Well, for the first time, I loved the scrambled pupusa and the coffee. Moderate prices (cheap) and spectacular food. The girl who served me, very friendly. When I visit Boston, I'll be back there. Thanks, excellent quality!(Original)Bueno, para ser la primera vez, me encantó la pupusa revuelta y el café. Precios módicos( baratos) y la comida espectacular. La chica que me atendió, muy amable. Cuando visite Boston, vuelvo para allá. Gracias, excelente calidad!!!!“

“First time, wife and I had chicken nachos and tacos de birria. Everything was delicious and great. Definitely going back and this is our new place 😊“

“Incredible tasty food; I had the seafood salad and my husband had the seafood stew. I highly recommend“

“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.“

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

“El mejor lugar para pasar en familia y amigos deliciosa comida y excelente atención al cliente“

“Today I stop by this place for my first time and I’m already loving it. The 🍞 is out of this world!!!“

“Wonderful food as always. Very authentic and always the best! Thank you Tu y Yo!“

“Wonderful atmosphere, food and service. Able to accommodate food restrictions. Highly recommended!“

“Amazing evening with delicious food and tasty drinks! Everything we ordered from the table side guacamole, Brussels sprout salad, tacos, margarita and sangria flights and dessert were incredible!
It’s also set up so beautifully inside so I’m already planning another dinner there next week.“

“The ladies behind the counter took my dairy allergy seriously and helped me find something to enjoy. I had the carnitas tacos, without cheese, and rice and black beans on the side. They made my food first out of the rest of my party, and took the time to clean the grill before hand. The tacos were delicious - the beans and rice were a little bland and much better when I added them to the tacos. I'd recommend speaking to the staff about possible options if you have food allergies.“

“The food here is better than taco loco because of the significant bigger portion size (not stingy like taco loco), the beef is not soggy (loco's meat taste like saddness), service is better (because the employees aren't overworked), more toppings. The only downside is the price but the significant larger portion size makes up for it. When I go to loco, I'm always disappointed about the lack of protein.

Maya: more expensive, flavor, larger portion size, less fluent employees

Loco: cheaper, blander, small portion size, more fluent employees so usually better customer service

Choose your poison“

“buenas atenciones y buen sabor“

“Las Palmas catered my daughter’s 1st Birthday, and I was blown away at the quality of this food for the price! It was beyond delicious, and not only that, the detail they put into their presentation is what really sets them apart from other places I’ve used in the past. I will certainly be using Las Palmas again for future events. Thank you for completing our baby girls birthday.“

“Everything! The food was awesome, the service great, the atmosphere festive! Great place! Take it from four travelers from Michigan: You need to go to Fajitas!“

“Very good place lindo muito bom. Restaurante“

“La Qchara is such a gem in the area. The food is flavorful, reasonably priced and always hits the spot. I appreciate that they have a variety of breakfast options from pastries to chia pudding to larger dishes like chilaquiles. The tortas are a perfect lunch/dinner option.

This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.“

“Stopped by today. Place is remodeled and clean. They have a few rice options, few meat options, bacalao, empanadas, plantations and cassava ready to go. I ordered a rice and beef plate, empanadas and a side of another rice. Everything was pretty good. Parking on side streets.“

“I am not the person to be writing or giving an opinion on anything in any store but they never arrive. I write this not to offend or anything. I write it in a way so that they are aware and do not steal. For you, .15 cents is nothing, nor for me, but for someone else it may mean something.

My experience and what is happening with this business. They cook very delicious, I am clear about that, the flavor in the food is very good. The problem is that the first time I asked for the receipt and with itemized prices and I see that they charge me .15 for the bag, I said, that's fine because I need it and in some places they charge it. Today I'm going to pick up an order and I tell him I don't have a bag so he doesn't charge me for it and I ask for a receipt with the prices broken down, a girl tells me "take it because it was charged anyway" I tell her that it was charged if I said that I didn't love her.

They started telling me that the system charges it automatically, that the city hall charges taxes etc etc etc, a lot of excuses. I know they buy the bags but if I don't want it however I want they keep it, I don't steal it, and if I had to buy it I would buy it, that is not my regret. Gentlemen, the client has and should have the option to decide if he wants to pay the damned bag or not, not that they say that the system charges it automatically, it is a scam and a theft from the client. Because I know that .15 cents is nothing, but we have to be honest with customers and ask if they want the bag or not and that there is an additional cost even if it is an additional cent. A lady got angry and took out .15 to give me them and I didn't want them, I grabbed the bag and told her I'll take it because they charged for it anyway. That's not how you struggle. If they are going to charge for something, they should tell the client and let the person decide if they want it or not. Not just charge them and that's it. I come back and repeat, they cook very delicious, I recommend it but in that hidden charge that they don't say it is where I see the difference, without offending. And they will say, if you want to buy here, you should buy and if not go somewhere else, but we are talking about honesty above all. Something that they are failing a little.

Ahhh and about the service, one of them must learn to be a little more friendly and have good manners, because you as a representative within the establishment should be more friendly and attentive. In general, I recommend the food and its flavors are very delicious.“

“Finally a quality Colombian dish, rich ingredients and very similar to those from my little land.You can feel the paisa flavor and seasoning, friendly people and quick service to our table.It is a little difficult to find parking in the area, but it is definitely worth it to eat a good plate of typical Colombian food.“
