Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Dorchester

Another great meal at The Helmand, sharing our favorite appetizers and plates family style. My only complaint is that I ate too much!

Kerin at front desk was very gracious ! Had dinner in the Rose Bar with Connor the bartender, who was awesome with drinks and recommending gluten free dishes. Had a great meal from start to finish ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’ve been here so many times and it’s always across the board a 10/10 Food last night, 10/10 with the exception of seriously overcooked and close to inedible French fries. Oddly, service was off. Incredibly slow, 2 full hours before entrees arrived. Waiter continually disappearing, was way preoccupied chatting it up with hostess desk, friends or downstairs. Finally had to ask the bar tender to close out our check. Very unusual for this place. Still our fave.

Awesome place, awesome time! Nice live music. Tasty food and cocktails. Attentive and friendly staff. Unique design and atmosphere.

What do lead with?? Server Freddy (from NW Mexico) made us feel like we were in his kitchen with his mom cooking. Owner Eric picked up on my SLIGHT eye cue and came right over to make sure we were really enjoying ourselves in his restaurant. And the food: Best nachos we have ever eaten. And tacos. We've got to go back to comment on more food items. THANK YOU for making us so happy and providing a level of hospitality that many places in Boston do not understand.
