Restaurants in East Boston

“Absolutely delicious and authentic style Mexican food. I had the TACOS BIRRIA my girlfriend had the tempura shrimp tacos. We are from NY and here staying at an Air BNB up the road , if we lived local we would be ordering from here at least once a week ! Highly recommend.”

“Absolutely LOVE it here. I take a road trip down from NH to the Cider house roughly every other month to stock up on flavors that I can't find in NH.This trip was awesome as I was chatting with the ever sweet and super personable Rasheen who is the manager there. She is incredibly nice and we love hanging and chatting with her about new flavors coming out and what may be discontinued. I get so happy after a 2 hour drive to see that she's working, it makes the long ride all worthwhile.See you soon Rasheen, thank you for everything!”

“Very good place. Nice atmosphere, although a little small (there were a good number of people waiting to have a seat). The service was fast and incredibly friendly.I really liked the ceviche and the dry goat (I felt a slight taste of blue cheese, I don't know why but I liked it, although there wasn't much cilantro). I ordered a lomo saltado but it didn't taste as good as the lomo saltado that a Peruvian is used to. There was something about the silao/vinegar/oyster sauce dressing that was lacking flavor. Plus the meat was a little dry.I liked that they serve you two types of chili and golf sauce as an additional.One point that I didn't like very much: the background music. Only Arjona sounded. It would have been better to hear something typical Peruvian.Anyway, I give it 5 stars because I would definitely return to the restaurant because it is good, although with some things to improve, I have no doubt that the experience, above all, is repeatable :)”

“BEST EMPANADAS EVER. I have never had a food that has made me feel so happy and content with my life. Especially the beef and beef and cheese empanadas. They are HUGE too. And the sauce that it comes with (for free) is the perfect touch to the most perfect meal. HOLY COW SO PERFECT SO AMAZING SO BEAUTIFUL. Everyone should order from here. Best. Restaurant. Ever. 100/10 review, If I could give more stars I would. These empanadas broke the scale.”

“Catering. Chicken parm, eggplant parm & raviolis were excellent. Got chicken florentine too, ehhh. Expected it to come like the parm.(same price) chicken topped w spinach & cheese & sauce. But it was all chopped up & loaded with ziti. It was mostly a pasta dish. The biggest offense w it for me was that it had red peppers in it. Yuck. My fault I guess cuz I assumed it would be like I have had everywhere else. Everything else I ordered was delicious & eaten. Only thing I took home was a full tray of of the Florentine which will go bad cuz I don't like peppers. Prices are good too.”

“Very tasty salvadoran-mexican food offerings. We enjoyed everything we ordered: caldo de res, lengua tacos, fajitas, and papusa. Will return. Service was great and attentive.”

“Not the place to sit down and eat, for me personally. I order takeout! My go to is the steak and cheese sub with extra cheese, ketchup, mayo, hots. The bread is so soft and SO big .. I usually save half for later.”

“I ordered through delivery and I'm so impressed with the packaging. The delivery driver rode on a bike and the drinks was on its side. However, no leakage or dripping. I even spilled it myself on the way to my room, but no leakage or dripping. Packing well thought out. Boba drink good too!”

“This was the best pizza!! OMG. Perfect thin crust, white pizza with garlic and spinach. And as soon as I walked in, the fabulous smell of garlic and I KNEW this would be absolutely awesome. It was.”

“Good food, good atmosphere, and quick service. If you’re ever in Boston and in the mood for Colombian/Latin food, check out Barney’s. You won’t be disappointed.”

“love this place, their mushroom cheddar scone is one of the best things i’ve ever eaten. also absolutely love the option of purchasing a day old scone or other pastry, amazing way to help with waste and save a couple bucks. I ask them to warm it up and it’s just like new. my only criticism is that i wish they left the simple syrup out for customers to add themselves. great place to work as well, with free wifi and a 2h time limit”

“I ordered delivery for just me - perfect. Fresh, delicious, good portions, and reasonably priced. And, LOVE that you can get individual servings of seaweed, edamame, or spring rolls for only 3 bucks! Other places give you a bigger portion (enough for 2) but charge triple that. I filled up on $30 … almost unheard of for high quality sushi. Highly recommend, especially if you’re ordering solo.”

“Went for dinner with a couple of friends. It has a cozy vibe, and the restaurant was full when we reached. We ordered some calamari, pasta, tacos, arepa and a shrimp salad. All the dishes were delicious and the portion sizes were generous. We also ordered some margaritas, and the mango margarita was brilliant. Would highly recommend this place for some South American cuisine. The staff is very friendly and warm as well!”

“Just had the most massive slice of pizza for lunch and it was absolutely delicious! ? The crust was perfectly crispy, the sauce was flavorful, and the cheese was just the right amount. Definitely hit the spot!”

“Been to Peru a couple of times they have the best chicken hands down but in the u.s.a? Chalan is the one here for sure! The chciekn is perfectly seasoned and great size dishes in general.Service is always nice cant wait to go again.”
