Everything was mediocre, not the worst/not the best. The corn muffins I can do without, very hard and tasted like nothing - super dry. The chicharrón fat was too chewy - needed to be fried more. The steak, the soup, the beans and the fried chicken need more seasonings. Super bland, perfect for people who have high blood pressure and cannot intake much salt/seasonings. The soup was also too watery - the base needs to be thickened. This isn’t meant to be a horrible review because...
I absolutely really liked my meal here. The food was authentic and excellent. The flavors were there. The Sancho was great you could really taste the root vegetables as well as the corn and other flavors. The rice and beans, chicharrones was excellent. The plantains and salad was fresh. I would highly recommend this establishment
The food is good. Fair dishes for their price.
The only thing is there is no good service. They pack the food that is left to take away themselves. Not even in a roadside restaurant... And even less so in Boston.
