  I can't get over how much I love their black seafood paella! I thought by dining in I would be persuaded to finally try something else, but it didn't work - I couldn't be bothered by it. So here we are, with the best paella dish with all its glory. Thankfully it comes with a side salad and swet plantains too! $26.99 before tax and tip. FYI: When entering from the front door there is a weird step up to enter the building. It might not be as accessible for those who use a wheelchair.

  Not bad food. $21.35 for my plate was kind of pricey but was pretty good. I didn’t like my waiter serving food with her hair all puffy and sticking out which could easily cause her hair to fall on people’s food. She was very kind and pleasant but I didn’t think that was sanitary. Their Cuban sandwich is very good and I highly recommend it. Would I return, for a Cuban sandwich? Heck yeah!

  This location was a review pick. It was a great choice. The establishment has been around for a while. Pictures of community officials and Boston sports heroes are on the wall. The food is reason why the restaurant has been around for a while. It’s worth a visit when in Waltham, MA area.

  As a Latino from Miami who moved to NH i really feel for this place because it's hard 2 find real Hispanic good food around NH, even tho this is in MA , the hour trip from where I live now is worth it. I knew this was place was going to be good because the moment we walked in there was 3 grandmas in the kitchen. Also I loved that the staff was honest when they told me yes the croquetas are the boxed ones that you can buy (Goya brand)- but the papá y rellena & empanadas we're made in house and that's definitely true we have them and that was the best papa rellena I've ever had in my life. The food was to die for , epic flavors left us so happy , service to some might seem slow but the food is on point and I really hope this spot gets to grow and i can't want to eat there again

  I have ordered the Black Paella for takeout/ delivery 9 times as of now, and it’s 1 of the only 2 things I’ve eaten here (the other is rice w/cuttlefish, much less flavorful/exciting than this). Overall, this is very inconsistent: great at its best and mediocre at worst. Good thing: abundant seafood ❤️ . I love the tender cuttlefish, and the scallops are cooked right! Lots of flavors when cooked right. Ripe plantains are awesome. What a feast! There’s a reason I kept coming back. Bad thing: 1) broken shells and grit (part of the experience, eat slowly recommended). 2) very often it’s more salty than needed (maybe personal ref), adding included shredded lettuce and tomato helped somewhat. 3) Rice is sometimes undercooked, 4) Flavor varies. Also the staff from whom I picked up the order was a bit aloof/dismissive 😕. Conclusion: love the seafood, dish is a gamble.
