“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!“

“I see the one star reviews for this place, while I can see how somethings like that can happen, I did not experience any of those things mentioned in those reviews. I got the molcajete and everything was fresh and tasted good decently seasoned but needed some more salt and maybe lime or another citrus or freshness. My wife got the bitting tacos and said they were good as well. My aunt got a burrito which was a generous and I mean generously sized burrito, she said it was good as well. The queo was not a ball park nacho cheese (it was your typical white queso) that had chorizo in it. Our waitress was good and professional.

I havent seen any additional charges after paying or on the check like the one person mentioned in their one star review.

All in all, a good place for Guatemala/Mexican food. (They also serve brrakfast)“

The ingredients were well distributed throughout, the dough was absolutely delicious and everything was perfectly cooked. Everything she does is amazing and I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next!“

“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.“

“Took my wife for her birthday, along with our daughter. Having been to Peru before and really enjoyed the flavors, we were excited to try this out. And the food certainly didn't disappoint. All of the dishes were very flavorful, including both the mango shrimp ceviche AND the vegetarian ceviche (which was something we didn't get in Peru!). The Causa reminded us of our time in Peru, and both the Peruvian Chinese eggplant and the cilantro lamb stew were very good. The former was a bit milder than we expected, but still delicious, while the latter was superbly seasoned with lamb that melts in your mouth. On the drinks side, we had a passionfruit sour, and the Chica sour and both were delicious. The dessert was their fruit mousse which was also excellent. We were seated outside as it was a nice summer's day, so I can't vouch for the interior. The service was good, though it did seem that one of the waiters wasn't particularly thrilled (either about serving us, or in general). The one who took our orders though, was polite and detailed and pointed out the vegetarian options for my wife and daughter. Keep in mind that this is NOT an inexpensive place. The items range from $17 for an appetizer to the high 30's for the main courses. But for someone craving for something different or just very flavorful food in general, this would be a great choice. I can see why this shows up on many of the lists for best new spots in the city. Highly recommended!“

What would have been great is if people didn't get kicked out through some back door to then have to wait in line again even though we had been there. Fine. You want earn more money by having people pay a $40 cover but maybe have people that are inside already pay like a $10 cover to be able to stay and NOT have to wait in line.“
