    Dubai chocolate pancakes
    Maria V.

    I've had Brunch by De Martino on my list for a while, and I'm so glad I finally went because it completely surpassed my expectations. The interior is so cute, with a flower bed on the ceiling. The decor and service truly makes it feel like you're at a family member's house--super cozy and welcoming! The food was amazing. For drinks we had the pretty in pink matcha and maple latte, both were delicious! Then we had the Hot Honey Chicken and Waffles; the chicken was juicy yet crispy with so much flavor. This is a must-have dish! We also tried the Dubai Chocolate Pancakes. The rich chocolate perfectly balanced the creaminess of their homemade pistachio butter and cream. I don't know how they do it, but the sweetness was just right and not at all overpowering. Because we couldn't decide, we also ordered the Blueberry Buttermilk Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, which were a refreshing and delicious combination. Finally, we had the Florentino Benedict. It's a great twist on the classic, featuring a unique epazote, walnut, and cotija cheese pesto that paired perfectly with the home fries. I honestly couldn't pick a favorite dish. I'm already planning my next trip back to try the rest of the menu. Run, don't walk, to try Brunch by De Martino!

    We stopped in for breakfast. Had a couple specialty tea they were a bit sweet but very good. Eggs Benedict was very good. All in very nice place well decorated. Limited seating. It well laid out. Service was attentive and friendly. We enjoyed it. Thanks.

    Phenomenal breakfast spot we discovered traveling from New Jersey up to Connecticut. We were there on a weekday morning and it was bustling. This was some of the best breakfast food I've had in recent memory - everything is good but the Mexican items are super super delicious!!! Service was attentive and friendly - Space is warm and nice vibe. This is actually on my list to revisit the next time I'm in town. Highly recommend!

    What a find! Cuban flavor baked into every dish. Everything was made fresh to order. Good sized portions and the menu allows for a variety of diets (vegan, vegetarian, etc). The restaurant is decorated nicely and very clean. The servers are so friendly and welcoming. They helped answer several questions and checked in throughout the meal. We got the short rib empanadas, potato hash with poached eggs, sweet potato hash with poached eggs, Florentino, Cuban sandwiches, the golden glow juice and cafe con leche. Everything was great.

    The food taste and plating is just so amazing, mesmerizing and deliciously curated! Their coffee is also superb(just a hint: enjoy the coffee solo so it won't affect the taste if you pair it with a meal) Their service is excellent! Proactive staff on what you need. Ample of seat spacing. Street parking or govt parking lots nearby. Clean and smells good restroom. Highchair seen. Recommended place for your breakfast or brunch! Their menu is a QR scan. 3% surcharge for creditcard use. See images for reference.

    Great brunch spot with BYOB option! Arrived on Sunday around 10:45am. We were told it was about a 60 minute wait and luckily we only had to wait 30ish minutes! Loved every single food option with steak: steak sandwich, steak and eggs, and carne asada omelet. The maple chicken croquettes were also really interesting and good. Savory and sweet! Ambiance is super cute, staff was very helpful. You need to place your food order all at once.

    Veggie Omelet

    Exceeded expectations! Good service and the cold brew coffee was delish. Highly recommend!

    Pumpkin Spiced Pancakes (Fall '25 Special, +$4 for vanilla ice cream)
    Sarah E.

    Great food! We enjoyed everything we ate. I had a reservation for a group of 12 and was seated promptly with quick food service. Stayed for about 2 hrs before they asked us to leave for their next reservation because of their Sunday brunch rush. Would come back. Seating deeper inside closer to the kitchen gets hotter than by the window. Street parking. Matcha drinks come unsweetened but they have vanilla syrup sweeteners available. Coffee is fine but unremarkable. Particularly enjoyed the pancakes, especially after all of the savory apps! Sweet and savory options to satisfy most cravings.

    Everything was standout. Portions are huge and everything that we ordered was delicious and beautifully presented. We tried a few things and my favorite was the avocado toast topped with bacon onion jam and scrambled eggs. This was the perfect combo of sweet and savory and it really hit the spot. The fried chicken and waffles came with the most decadent and crispy fried chicken. The taquitos were also a hit and were smothered in a delicious slaw and crema. Service was speedy and friendly, and you can tell that this is a well-loved spot in downtown Somerville. I'd totally come back again if in the area.

    Chicken Hot Honey Chicken & Waffles

    First time here. Fast service, large portions, great ambience. Server was very nice and attentive.

    Chicken Taquitos

    Such a great brunch spot tucked away in downtown Somerville! They have so many amazing dishes to choose from it was so hard to decide what we wanted. We shared the chicken taquitos and chicken & waffles and SO GOOD! It's such a cute little spot tucked away in downtown Somerville & the service was super quick and helpful!

    Carne Asada Omelet
    Katie V.

    I enjoyed my visit. Our server was friendly & helpful. I tried the tres leches French toast. Everything tasted fresh and wonderful. I also got to taste my husband's order of carne asada omelette and it was so amazing! Begging for them to sell some mofongo, Puerto Rican pasteles, and flan de queso ;-) I can dream, right? I really would like to come back sometime.

    Brunch by De Martino was fantastic. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Everything we ordered was delicious. Our waiter, Ernesto, truly made the experience exceptional. He was friendly, attentive, and made us feel very well taken care of from start to finish. His service alone would make us come back. Highly recommend--great food and outstanding service.

    May I join the line online?

    Do you have outdoor seating?

    We will be setting up our outdoor dining very soon.

    Good for kids?

    I'm sure well-behaved kiddos would be welcomed here, especially earlier in the night. I can't recall they accommodate for infants or toddlers that need booster chairs, though.

    I am planning on taking my gf on a date this Friday. Is this the type of spot for a dinner that says, "thank you so much for being a good woman."?

    YES! It's very classy yet comfortable. It's a way to have amazing and 'fancy' food while maintaining a comfortable vibe throughput dinner.

It has expanded and taken up a bit more space over the years, and the expansion is well-deserved. Featuring a Pura Vida Costa Rican flare you have a number of options available for both breakfast and lunch. I've tried quite a bit of the menu, but they are known for their tried and true empanadas. They have about half a dozen varieties and I end up getting at least one of each every time I visit. They're hot, big, flavorful, and the shell is a perfect consistency. The waitstaff is some of the friendliest around. The outdoor seating is also quite nice in the summertime alongside the pedestrian street. In terms of the menu, it's hard to say there is a standout, because I get something different each time, and I have yet to go wrong. Everything here is absolutely excellent, and I look forward to each return visit to come.

I walked in and two super nice young ladies were making and serving the food. I appreciated that I was greeted right away and my order taken right away. If Yelp had star options for both the food and the service, I definitely would have given them 4 or 5 stars. I almost always go completely overboard when I try a place the first time. I picked up almost $80 worth of takeout so that I could try a little bit of everything. I really, really wanted to love the food here but I didn't. Unfortunately I didn't really find anything that I ordered that flavorful. The food wasn't bad by any means, it just didn't have the delicious flavors that I normally associate with great Puerto Rican food. As I mentioned it was an unbelievably hot day so maybe the cook was having an off day because of that. If I'm ever driving by there, I'd probably give it another chance since it has such great reviews from other people.

The Cuban quesadilla was hearty and satisfying with good melty cheese, with a nice touch from the fillings. Ambience is casual but lively, perfect for hanging with friends or a relaxed dinner. Staff were friendly and responsive. Portion sizes felt moderate (not huge) so if you're very hungry you might want to add another dish. Pricing leans a bit toward "mid‑upper" for this kind of food. The noise level at times crept up, though it never got excessive for conversation. All in all, a very enjoyable visit. I'd go back and try more of their menu.
