    Nikki N.

    Inside of empanada

    We each got a beef empanada - then a roll (it was yuka and inside was pork/ beef- a dessert and drinks. Can't go wrong for $22. My favorite was that yuca rolls- soooo good. Incredibly clean inside and the cashier was super friendly and patient as we navigated the options. Will defiantly be back to try something new!!! (But still getting a yuca roll...)

    Chuleta plate
    Kiara V.

    Have ordered from them twice now. Two days in a row and same meal. The 20$ chuleta (porkchop) meal. Comes with rice and beans and a side salad of cabbage and tomatoes, and Maduro (sweet plantain). The food is good. What's off is the consistency and the pricing. 20$ is a lot for the amount of food you get. My first time trying & I was shocked by the portion I received. I got ONE single chuleta and some rice and some beans. (Amount of Rice was probably half the to-go container) & about 5 Maduros. I felt this was too little for 20$. The second time ordering the same exact thing, I recieved TWO chuletas and rice that took up the entire to-go plate and Some beans smothered on top. Better portion. Still not worth 20$ but I'd be more willing to pay 20$ if it always came with the 2 chuletas.

    Excellent authentic Dominican food. They had me at mofongo! The empanadas are loaded with seasoned meat!

    I REALLY wanted some Dominican food this evening! I looked around on my way back from Newport RI,…read moreback to MA, and this place was open and it had decent ratings. When I arrived, there was a very sweet older lady at the counter who greeted me. I knew I wanted to get food to go so I was kind of in a rush due to being tired from the ride. I ordered chicken breast, yellow rice with beans and sweet plantains. The woman (the hunger in me did not allow me to ask what her name was) took my order and said that the chicken and plantains would take a few minutes because they had to be cooked. Which was ok with me; I did desire fresh food. The food was cooked in no time. The woman was so sweet because she didn't charge me extra when I changed my white rice to yellow rice - I did leave a nice tip though. Fast forward to when I got home to eat: the food was FREAKING AMAZING! And, it was plentiful! Enough for leftovers for tomorrow! If I could give 10 stars, I would have! It was probably some of the best Dominican food I'd ever had! I will be back! The physical place itself is basically no-frills but the food makes up for all of that! 5 stars!

    Food is really good and the portions are pretty generous. Perfect for when I don't want to cook…read moremyself and have to feed my family of 3. The service is great, the staff is really friendly.

The decor is industrial with the stone, metal and wood, earth tones, very modern and yet feels cozy and warm with the combination of the colors, lighting and art. Great atmosphere for an elegant and elevated experience. We had the side room space which is really great for having a small to medium sized gathering of easily up to 50 people or so. There's ample seating at round tables and also a couple high tables to stand at. A long bar where all the food is served buffet style. There are restrooms just down the hall too so very convenient. There's cool wall art murals which make for a great backdrop and very artsy!! The food was really good too - charcuterie meats, cheese, fruit, meatballs, olives, eggplant caponata, hummus and crackers. The staff were friendly and were there to help with any questions and were happy to take our photos too. Overall a great time was had by all!

Food-wise, none of the dishes we got particularly wowed me (the sauces that came with each dish were better than the actual food) but I'd come back to try other things from the very extensive list. We got: 1. Patatas bravas: The best thing we got, though we should have eaten this when it was still hot and crispy. After sitting out for a while, it became a mushy mess with the sauce. 2. Spiced meatballs: Very small size for the meatball and not much spice (like less than a bite) but the sauce was excellent. 3. Jamon croquettes: Not bad but the filling was pretty gluey in texture. Definitely need to eat with the accompanying sauce. I ended up dunking it in the sauce that came with the meatballs. 4. Grilled peaches: Intrigued by this summer offering but I'd say skip. For $7, we got five very small slices of peach in an indistinguishable, vaguely sugary/burnt sauce. If you have a grill and a peach, you can definitely make a much better version of this for far cheaper. 5. Shrimp in garlic sauce: Fell flat. The shrimp were small and extremely overcooked. The only saving grace of this dish was the scallion/garlic oil that we used to dip the extra bread in. Food came out very fast and our waitress came by often to check on us and see if we needed. Lots of parking options nearby (including free 2-hour options one block over) so if you're debating which location of Barcelona to go to, the parking alone could weigh in favor of this one.
