It's been a long time since my work has sent me this route going to Boston, but I found myself…read moretraveling to Boston early this morning from Portsmouth and I was really really hungry and was trying to look for a place to eat close to my hotel in Chelsea. I was looking to see what was open and I just so happened to see a Puerto Rican restaurant open around 6 AM! I just had to try the alcapurrias and empanadas so I ordered 1 or each and I have to say I absolutely LOVED the chicken burrito it was FULL of flavor and the lady on the phone sounded so nice when I called and asked for some extra salsa on the side. The beef empanada was pretty good I would say out of the 3 I tried Chicken & Cheese Beef Shrimp The Shrimp was my favorite ! The other two were pretty good but I think flavor wise the shrimp empenada knocked the other two out of the park. The Burrito was so flavorful! I would highly recommend it ! I added Rice, Onion, Pico, Jalepeno, cheese and it SMACKED! I love finding hidden gems whenever I go on my work trips

I'm pretty disappointed. I purchased 14 empanadas, and they were awful--full of oil, the meat was…read moresour-tasting beef. It seems like, after cooking, they just picked them up from the oil and tossed them into the silver bag, which you can see is filled with oil at the bottom.

Brazilian bakery - I've gotten their cheese breads (large size & small), condensed milk Bundt cake,…read moretheir mini cheese breads with guava, and theyve given me samples of some of their cookies too. Taste is there, but sometimes their items don't feel fresh, but I also have to keep in mind that I've only gone at the end of the day, when they're an hour from closing. Their quality could be much better in the morning. I've mainly gotten their items when I'm in a rush & need a snack or in large quantities for potlucks. They have a nice selection of baked goods, sandwiches, and bagged snacks. And it's all for a reasonable price. They accept credit card for purchases over $5. Staff is nice and helpful, especially when I'm looking for recommendations for a crowd-pleasing dessert. There are a few tables, the set up seems basic, yet comfortable. Definitely a humble little bakery with a lot to offer.

I'm not a big fan of haitian cake (tend to be dry and breadlike) but the cake had a great flavor, nice and soft. My only issue is the price - $300 is way too exp for a one tier cake!

They surprising had a good selection of pastries and pre-made savory breads. The lady helping us was nice, but she seemed unaware of some of the flavors of pastries sold there. Quick rundown of what we have ordered: Chocolate Dome Mousse: delicious chocolatey heaven, the mousse was light and airy, with a chocolate crumb base and white whipped cream in the center. It was decadent and a little too sweet for us but for most people it should be perfect. Almond Cake: OMG!! This is soooo good. I do not like too much cream in my cakes/pastries and it is so hard to find cakes, that do not have a lot of cream. Kind of a juxtaposition, but it is what it is. But the almond cake proves this juxtaposition wrong ;) The pastry has thin layers of cake and cream, was not overly sweet and had such a lovely almond tone to it. LOVED every bite of it.

I've been to this place a couple of times, but I've actually passed by this place like 1 million…read moretimes my friend introduced me to their putting desserts which was pretty good so whenever I get the chance, I stop by for a couple of desserts with my son, the best one that I like is the dolce de Leche pudding It also fills you up so I would suggest eat some savory food before you have some of this desserts it seems like it's also a restaurant because you can sit and eat in there and order some food and they also have a little parking lot that could have a space for a few cars. It's a little small inside but it's nice and cozy so you can chill and eat your food for a little bit. The service is not too bad. It's a reasonable wait time plus most of the desserts. They just grab it and put it in a bag to go so you're ready. Don't have any weight to do anyways I would still come back for more desserts in the future since it's literally like four minutes from the house

First time visit and this is so fresh and delicious!…read more This box has a very flaky pastry topped with sweet brown sugary topping and inside is a sweet spread with ham and cheese. You have to hold it over something to catch all of the flaky pieces! There is also a ham and cheese croissant... their croissant style is more dense than a typical French style. It's more substantial and super fresh, like when you try fresh baked bread from the oven. Delicious. There are rolls in here with mozzarella type cheese baked in. The rolls are dense but very soft and pillowy/fluffy. All of the breads are a little sweetened, even the plain roll and plain croissants which would be excellent with any type of hot or cold sandwich you want to make at home!

I called back to try to speak to someone else. They put me on hold for like 10m. To pay almost 20 dollars on breakfast food and them to have it wrong its a bit crazy especially since it was just me and one more customer. Very very poor customer service. To think I use to refer my clients and friends to this place. They need to bring back the other amazing woman that was there. Lines would be to the back and the did not drop a beat. Dont waste your time or money on people that dont value their customers or admit to there mistakes.

If the winter and spring don't get you, the Somerville. Okay they definitely are not as good as the sensational spectacular Pastelaria Vitoria just down the road which are the best Pastels I've ever had outside of Brazil. But they are definitely 5-star worthy and extremely cheap and spectacularly friendly and they make extremely good Abacaxi Com Hortela, which is the pineapple mint drink that I love so much. They have all kinds of other good delicious Brazilian goodies and they are cheap and they are authentic and most of all, the woman here is an angel. And she's one of the friendliest people in all of Boston - so there's no way I'm not giving them five stars even though it's only my second best pastel in the city. Note, it's also one of the best in the country because the US has barely any top notch authentic Brasileno Pastels! And if you're wondering which area it's in... it's in the Pastel-area of course!

It reminds me of an authentic Parisian café. Everyone was friendly and looking like they were enjoying their day which is always a good sign. I got a chocolate croissant and two different types of cookies. One of my good friends eats Halal and it will be nice to have a spot in my community where I can take her for a nice meal. They do serve a menu with schwarma and hummus, and a few other things. Coffee menu is limited to authentic coffee, so no sugary junk. I love this for a quick stop! I will definitely be returning to pick up these croissants for my weekly breakfasts. They also have beautiful dessert pastries and a variety of different cookies perfect for this holiday season.

Due to their low prices and friendly customer service I will stop by here often!
