"The Jolly Rice came hot and fresh, and everything is super flavorful. Grilled chicken is tender and plantains are perfect. Tomato Stew Sauce is still a very spicy option, but still really good.
Will order again! "
"The food itself is amazing! The rice is cooked perfectly and the tomatoe stew is so damn good I love it! My only issue is the portion size - I know it's typical of ethnic restaurants to give more rice than meat. But I ordered the goat and literally got FIVE pieces of goat meat & a heaping amount of rice."

I've had the Espaguetis before and will again. This was an excellent Latino
Seasoned meal. I plan to order again even weekly. The portion sizes were filling even enough to share with enough for another adult or a couple of kids. The food was fresh and I will surely order again especially if I have guests. Thank you for a lovey meal.
I will add photos at another time. I'm glad I have leftovers for tomorrow."

This spaghetti was a little bit salty, and is very soupy. I gave that a 3.2.
The sweet plantains.
We're just made, sweet and hot not hard. I gave it a 5.0
The portion is pretty big. The quality of the food is pretty good. It's not that bad again. A little high in sodium with the spaghetti and a bit too saucy for me. Even though I love saucy spaghettis, but not like that. Being Dominican myself, I love dominican spaghettis.I just wish that they would have done it better. and yes, I will go back and buy again from this restaurant."

"Finally a good Indian snack joint in Quincy! As my friend recommended me to try Paneer Pizza I ordered it and was not disappointed as it tastes exactly like Indian style oven baked pizza that has a mild crusty base with good quant of veggies and amul cheese.
The Kutchi Dabeli (2PCS) was also so good! With all the ingredients that generally goes into making one. Brownie points for adding coconut flakes as well. The price is a bit absurd, but no one else comes close to the taste that they offer in the neighborhood. "
"I like the samosas here, and I’m a regular customer because they taste good. However, one thing that consistently disappoints me is the chutney portion.
When you order 5 samosas, they usually provide only one small container of red chutney. Sometimes they’ll give you an extra one if you ask, but it’s inconsistent.
As an Indian restaurant, this is surprising to me. In India, it’s very uncommon for a samosa shop to serve five samosas with such a limited amount of chutney.
What’s even more disappointing is that if you want green chutney, you have to pay extra around $1 or $2 for a small container. I honestly don’t think the cost of making a little green chutney justifies charging extra, especially when the samosas themselves are already reasonably priced.
The pricing on DoorDash is also frustrating. Even with a DoorDash membership, the samosas cost about $2 more than ordering directly, yet you still don’t get extra red chutney or even a small serving of green chutney included.
The food is good, which is why I keep coming back, but the restaurant could really improve the overall customer experience by being a little more generous with the chutney. It’s a small gesture that would make a big difference and would better reflect the hospitality people expect from an Indian restaurant."

"The Chickpea Fritter Sandwich... sooo good. The quality and consistency of the food here is unmatched for a healthy and fast meal. The tostones are also really good, but the chipotle mayo could use a hint of sweet. Otherwise. So, so good and reliable."
Chickpea Fritter Sandwich
Our very first sandwich—established in 2008—has become a Boston classic, often landing on lists alongside lobster rolls and clam chowder. It’s a reflection of everything we care about: simple ingredients, bold flavors, and food made with love. We start with our own pita bread, baked fresh at our Commissary kitchen. Inside, you’ll find silky hummus made from organic chickpeas grown in Connecticut, crispy falafel balls that are soft on the inside and packed with toasted spices and fresh herbs, a cucumber-tomato salad we chop fresh each morning, bright pickled veggies for a tangy crunch, and a drizzle of tahini sauce to tie it all together. It’s the sandwich that started it all—and still one of our favorites.

We've been inspired by Middle Eastern recipes using Western Mass ingredients. We start with a layer of our silky hummus so you get a little bit in every bite. Then we add two beautiful salads: a hearty Farro Lemon Dill and a Chickpea Eggplant Pepper salad made with organic chickpeas from Connecticut. For some light brightness we add a Cucumber Tomato Salad (use the lemon wedge to squeeze a little fresh juice on top) and bright magenta Pickled Cabbage. Of course we can't skip our Falafel balls, fried to order, crispy/craggy on the outside, and bright green inside from fresh cilantro and parsley we fold into the batter. Then drizzle everything with a beautiful herby green tahini.

"My Veggie Patty is delicious ! Just like I rememit over the years. I ordered subway after a while and it was great- food was great, packaged great. Excellent. And might I add the veggie patty has now become greener and healthier with pease and edamame in it and very fresh and perfectly cooked. And the chocolate chip cookie was great too - soft and fresh and plenty of choc chips in it. <3"
"Oven-Roasted Turkey. freshness was very good, but quantity was very poor. I had more bread then meat in my foot long sandwich."

"They have the BEST tasting Birria Tacos around and I have tried a lot!"
"The sopa de Res was perfectly made ! It had all the flavors and the beef was so tender ! The rice was nice and moist and flavorful as well ! The tortilla that came with it was also on point ! The only thing is I didn't get any corn with it unfortunately:(. However I did order late so I'm not really worried about it. Anyways if you are ever wanting some good soup in this cold weather definitely go with this !"

"Love the food. But the host never submitted my order. The manager Smoke saved the day. Good dude. But I waited well over an hour for my food. I should have gotten some type of deal, and I also manage a restaurant"
"Everything seemed skimpy. The Hard Shell Taco were only like a quarter or third filled. My Kid's Steak Fajita had only 5 partial cuts of steak (as in like, 5 or 6 bites) not like the picture, and not much chicken or cheese in the Taco Salad. The taste however was good, as usual. We've been going to Margs in person for a decade and are usually happy with the portions, but this DD experience was no bueno. The Bag of Chips and Pint of Salsa were perfect. Had to make a second order from DD tonight because everyone's still hungry. "

"Delicious food, I have been many times in person. Always amazing, dependable, fast service. Nachos and Birria tacos are great, love Mi Finca.
