    Tipico Salvadoreno with steak, Pupusas Revueltas (with slaw & salsa), Salvadorian Breakfast Burrito (comes with chips & salsa)
    Christina Y.

    I noticed Cristian Latin when walking to Ball Square and the pupusas caught my eye. I saw the Boston Globe article where owner Julio Pleitez recommended the breakfast foods, so we ordered the Salvadorian Breakfast Burrito (eggs, beans, cheese, cream, tomatoes), Tipico Salvadoreño (scrambled eggs, beans, queso fresco, sour cream, avocado, plantain, handmade tortillas) with steak, and Pupusas Revueltas (pork, bean, cheese). Personally, my favorite was the pupusa. I liked how the cabbage slaw and salsa brightened up the pork and beans. It was very filling, and a great deal at $3. The photo isn't great but thought it might help Yelpers.

    It was sold and bought by someone else. The menu changed and the food is not as good. Sad about this one as I really liked the old place.

It's a small space with some street parking out front and even though it's small, it doesn't feel too cramped. The two of us ordered: - Shrimp and Mango Ceviche - Seared Scallops with Squid Ink Fettucine - Peruvian Style Shrimp Scampi with Rice - Peruvian Style Tuna Sashimi My favorites were definitely the squid ink fettucine with aji cream sauce and the shrimp and mango ceviche. After such flavorful small plates, the shrimp scampi was a bit forgettable. We also got drinks and the dulce de leche custard, which came with a little raspberry and blackberry. Service was efficient and friendly, and the food came out relatively quickly. Celeste is on the pricier side, but it's worth it for such a delicious and unique meal.

    I've been wanting to try Celeste for years and I finally got to try it over the weekend. Celeste is…read moretiny - there's only a handful of tables and they have an open kitchen. The service was great and the staff was really attentive. The food was pretty good as well - my favorite thing was the mix seafood ceviche. The seafood was really fresh and the flavors wee well balanced. Some of the foods were a little too rich for me - I was only able to take one or two bites of it before I started feeling really full. Overall, I would come back one day!

    Thank you, Muqueca, for warming me up…read more Fish with Shrimp Moqueca: Made in the Capixaba recipe, this version replaced red palm oil and coconut milkthem with tomatoes--which happened to be my favorite. The broth was warm, flavorful, and refreshing. The initial notes are the sweetness of onions and bell peppers, followed by the delicate aroma of cilantro, leaving a clean taste impression. The whitefish fillets are tender and flavorful, yet still retain a subtle chewiness. The Pirão sauce, made with the fish broth and tapioca starch, was rich and thick, enhancing both the saltiness and umami, even reminiscent of Cantonese style abalone sauce. The two flavors were distinct yet complementary, a true delight with rice--though fresh, higher-quality Thai jasmine rice would be better. The earthenware pot, bearing the marks of time, kept the food warm; the portion was also very generous, perfect for sharing. I ended up taking some home for a second meal. Flan: Although I was quite full, the deliciousness of the moqueca piqued my interest in trying dessert. The pudding had a smooth and delicate texture, unlike the often sticky flaky texture of supermarket flans. The egg flavor wasn't strong, while the caramel syrup was rich and smooth, with an irresistible initial bitterness followed by a delightful sweetness. Plus, the syrup was generous, making it wonderful to coat every slice of cake in it. No wonder it's their signature dessert. Hot Sauce: The homemade hot sauce was highly recommended by my server. It didn't look very spicy, but it was far beyond my tolerance. However, I must admit it was incredibly delicious, with a refreshing citrus flavor and a smooth, emulsified texture alongside the spiciness, creating a very rich flavor profile. Being unable to handle spice is a real shame in its presence. The server's movements were elegant, the service attentive, the pace comfortable, and he satisfied some of my curiosity as a cuisine lover.
