Dominican Restaurants near Somerville, MA

“It was my first time visiting “Antojitos”. I had the “3 golpes” breakfast and a “morir soñado” juice! Perfection! I originally ordered for pick-up. However, decided to dine-in instead, due to the sweet and welcoming staff. The place is cozy and meticulously clean. I loved it here!

Parking: Metered street parking, depending on the day. Also, 15 min street parking and/or free street parking available, again depending on the day.

Kid-friendliness: It’s a family environment. Kids are definitely welcomed!“

“The food was more than amazing, along with the prices being highly affordable especially for the size of the plates!! You won't be disappointed stopping in! 100% recommend the chicharrón!“

“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.“

“Buena comida �“

“Incredible empanadas. They are large and freshly fried. Their online ordering system is very easy, but be aware that they don’t usually have everything on the menu and you will be asked if you want to make substitutions when you go to pick up. Each empanada came with a side of chipotle mayo. Underrated flavor was the eggplant parm— so comforting. We would come here again!“

“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.“

“Great services with delicious taste. A hidden GEM on Hyde park ave!“

“On my part, the quality of their products is very good, but I have been told on two occasions that the young woman who serves me in the morning does not give me the quantity that I ask for in my empanadas, but she does. I think you have to pay a little more attention because I live far away to come back.“

“lobster empanadas and on the spot freshly made. would go again. young lady at the end should have came to front spoke great English. the gentleman tried his best and blonde head papi helped me quite a bit muy quapo dark stranger. would recommend going my 1st time today“

“Great Dominican Food! It’s generous portions and fresh. Staff are very friendly and accommodating (For English Speakers, there might be a language barrier, they speak mostly Spanish depending who’s there.) Only issue I have is please set up a menu with firm prices, whenever I go there sometimes prices fluctuate and it can be a bit deceiving at times to the customer. But, overall I do recommend for anyone trying to try Dominican food and looking for good portions in a inflated economy for food prices. Also, PLZZ PUT CHICHARRÓN CON YUCA OUT MORE OFTEN, it’s good but y’all run outttt :(

Parking: Good amount of parking there, just be careful you aren’t parked where the residents for Charlestown are.“

“Food is basic but healthy and hearty. Could use some hot sauces on the table. Not as great a selection as in Colombian restaurants, nor as enticingly sauced. And no sangria ☺️“

“Very tasty food clean place and an excellent service. [Original] Muy sabrosa la comida lugar limpio y un servicio de excelencia.“

“I've only tried the empanadas so far, but I don't need to try anything else to know this place is great. They taste amazing. The edges are crunchy while the center is nice and soft. The best part of the empanadas though is that they feel oily at all, so you wont regret eating multiple.“

“One of my favorite restaurants of all time, it allows me to have a piece of home in Boston.“

“I really appreciate what you did for me. I am from Turkey and I was travelling in Boston in 2018. I had no money with me but still the woman prepared meal for me. It was really delicious by the way. And they are amazing people. I will never forget about you. Thank you so much. God bless you !!! <3“

“Highly recommend to try this place versus La Parada Kitchen. They reopened and the food is fresh. Fair prices. Great variety. If you are nice to them they will be nice to you.

I recommend that you try this place vs La Parada Cocina. They reopened and the food was fresh on the block. Fair prices. So much variety. If you treat them well, they will take care of you too.“

“so extremely delicious!!!! very friendly and helpful worker. I would recommend asking what they are serving that day and for their recommendations, as they may offer only specific things from the menu. I ended up getting oxtail stew, and my friend got pork chops with onions and they were some of the best things I've eaten in Boston in my 5 years living here.“

“They serve lunch by the pound. Really, really good Dominican place. The rice and beans were solid but the meats are where they shine. The pork and chicken are soooo good, and it's so much food for $10. Highly recommend!

They sell lunch by the pound. It is a very, very rich Dominican site. The rice and beans were very good, but the best are the meats. The pernil (pork) and stewed chicken were soooo good and it's a lot of food for only $10. I definitely recommend it!“

“Great place to stop by and grab some Dominican deliciousness. Lots of items to choose from off their menu. Great smoothies too! It's easy to find, right across from the Franklin Park Zoo. Free parking. Your choice of eating in or taking it to go. Either way, this is a great place to do so

Parking: Either in their lot or on the street, it's FREE!

Wheelchair accessibility: Located on the first floor, so wheelchairs can enter and exit easily“

“I am a fan of their res ( stew beef) , habichuela (beans) and arroz (rice ) ? they use to give good portions but things have changed , it’s 2022 now and prices are up but it’s worth it still . It ain’t that expensive. It’s enough to feed two if your ordering a plate for $18“

“Tiny, inexpensive ,no frills place with friendly young staff serving up classic Dominican tostados, toasted sandwiches. Takeout only, but they have plenty of outdoor seating. Sandwiches were delicious but a real surprise was the quality of the fruit smoothies! My mango and passion fruit smoothie was so rich and summery, not drenched in sugar at all.“

“It all depends on what time you get there . Good time is before 2pm.If your in a mood for some greased pork or chicken& fish . The beans and rice is always good especially beans on the side. This is a place you go every once un a blue moon. Fast and friendly service.

Vegetarian options: Rice beans , vegetables, and fish. Everything else is fried . Cheese , plantains, and more“

“Awesome food! The chicken is delicious ? We are from Providence RI and it was worth it ?. Delicious food! The Chicken is delicious! All the food is delicious! The pork rinds, sweet potatoes, roasted yellow beans, yucca, etc! Can't wait to be back! Great customer service to ? Thank you ?“

“I loved this place, it's true that the dishes take a while but obviously they are made at the moment, obviously they are going to take a while, I loved the music and the waitress treated us super well, you have to go with time to enjoy the restaurant and I am going to return ?? ?

Parking: There is parking on the street
