This place is an ABSOLUTE MUST TRY IF YOU LOVE LATIN FOO. This Puerto Rican cuisine will have your taste buds & your heart asking you why you're not eating here for every meal!

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

Comprei um salgado assado sabor pizza (super caro, por sinal) no último domingo à noite e quando…read moretentei comê-lo no dia seguinte, o gosto estava estranho. Quando eu abri, o presunto estava CINZA. Totalmente estragado. O atendente foi legal e disse que foi feito no dia anterior, mas não acho que isso seja verdade. Tava nojento! O salgado só tava bonito por fora. Chelsea Bakery , certifique-se de verificar tudo isso antes de vender os alimentos, por favor. Alguém pegar uma intoxicação alimentar. Infelizmente / felizmente não voltarei. I bought a pizza roll last Sunday night (overpriced by the way) and when I tried to eat it next day, the taste was weird. When I opened it, the ham was GRAY, like totally spoiled. The attendant was nice and said that it was made the day before but I don't think that is true. It was nasty. The roll was only nice on the outside of it. Make sure to check all that before selling it, please. Someone can get intoxicated. Unfortunately/ fortunately I won't go back there.

If you want authentic homemade pasta, and pastries head on over to Il Pastificio. Let's start with…read morethe pasta for five or seven dollars per pound you have some of the best homemade pasta on the East Coast. The pasta is displayed in airtight sealed packages so you have the utmost freshest pasta possible when you go home. I've tried different styles of their pasta, and each one was better than the last. I definitely give High praise when it comes to pasta making since I do not have the patience for the time consuming process. I would suggest everyone come here and try the pasta at least one time you will be hooked. Magnificent.!! Now for the pastries. What can you say all the crusts are light, soft when needed, crispy and crunchy on the others. I mean it's basically cookie and pastry perfection here. The cookies are sold by the pound you can just ask for a mixed batch or pick your own mix and match. I am not sure how much per pound the cookies are my last purchase was 1 pound of cookies and two grapefruit waters and it came to $29. This is a freaking bargain for the quality of this pastry. The only downside about the pastry is that you can only eat so many cookies and at this location, you want every single one. My only advice is to come multiple times a week and grab a pound and see if it lasts you a day or two. Unfortunately, the pastry is so delectable that you want to eat them all in one sitting. Grab a pound and see how long you can make it last. Approximately two hours at my house. With everything said above, you think that would be it but there's more! Homemade gelato you heard that right homemade gelato. Already scooped into beautiful cups with fruit, different flavors and yes, 100% homemade again! Coming into this business is like taking a flight to Italy and walking down a small alley with local shops. There is too much going on for my taste buds in this store. Everything is amazing. So not to extend this fabulous review, but there's still more.... I haven't had the opportunity or the need to purchase a jar of sauce, but with the quality of every single thing that is sold under this roof, I am sure the sauce is amazing. They have jars of sauce so you can go home and make a pasta dinner in a few minutes just boil up your pasta and warm up the sauce. I definitely will try a jar one day. But I already know that it's delicious. Yes, there is more... I haven't had a chance to indulge in a sandwich at this location however it is on my agenda. I know they have sandwiches because there's actually a sandwich sign out front when I drive by once in a while that says they have sandwiches. I will save that for another day. I can only foresee a fabulous fresh sandwich with amazing taste coming out of this location. I look forward to this adventure in the future. The location is always clean. Well kept organized and set up super cute. There is always some kind of little display going on in the main lobby. As for the service, you can't get any better service than at this location because the people serving, you are actually the owners. Sandra is one of the most happiest, beautiful young ladies. I've met in so long. She is so upbeat, polite, happy and beautiful that you almost forget about the pastries when you speaking with her. And her dad, he is the master creator of the pasta.. and I'm sure most of the other things in the store. The both of them make your experience so pleasurable that it is amazing that you get the quality the taste the personalities of these two all at one location. I would say this is my favorite pastry/pasta shop 100%. The only negatives I see about this business is of course trying to get a parking spot on Broadway Everett, make sure you don't bypass make a few circles or go down the side street because you definitely need to go in here and give your taste buds the pleasure of everything inside this shop. Secondly, if you are handicapped, FYI, there are about 8/10 steps to get up into the shop. And the last which is not a negative it's just more of an anticipation one of my favorite cookies that you can't get anywhere is homemade here. I've been eating these since I was a kid and they are extremely hard to find. Nobody makes them unless you have an aunt or grandmother that actually makes them. If your around Il Pastificio during the holidays, you definitely want to come in and try the homemade Fennel Taralli. Next time I see them I'm grabbing three or four bags. I'm gonna hoard them!!! If you made it this far in the review, God bless you, go buy some some pastry, some pasta or just stop by for a sandwich or a gelato definitely support this business. Not many left like it. So please support them.. I give them 10 stars on a 5 star scale, which is impossible for a mom pop shop, but they deserve it.

While there are a ton of pre-made options, I was looking for a more simple bowl so opted to make my own. I got a bowl with strawberries, bananas, kiwi, and mango, and you could tell all the fruit was actually fresh. I also put granola and peanut butter in my bowl. Unlike most places, the peanut butter was drizzled on the top which was a nice surprise. My only suggestion would be to have an option of how much you want drizzled on top since it was a little heavy for my own preference (still delicious). The staff was friendly and even delivered your meal to your table. While there arent a ton of seats inside, we had no issues finding a place to sit, even with another family there. I would come back here and be open to trying other items on the menu as well.

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.
