"Pastelaria Vitoria Broadway: A Taste of Brazil in Somerville"

The pastels beef and shrimp pastels were phenomenal. The sandwiches were filled to the brim with quality meats. So good me and the homies had to whip out the broom and clean the floors afterwards the collective flavorgasm that occurred.

We loved the coxinha!! And Tudor Burger. My daughters 1st experience with Brazilian street food! I haven't been in years & its still as excellent as I remember...we'll be back for more amazing Brazilian food!!

Apr 2024: Enjoyed the meal, this place was recommended to me and it was quite delicious had some pasteles which are a fried rectangular dish stuffed with your choice— I had cheese and pastel de palmito. It is quite greasy so make sure you get some napkins. There is a large language barrier where the members speak only in Portuguese which is a minor problem although had a tough time communicating for the wait time. They make these fresh so be prepared to wait. It also gets pretty hot inside so may feel uncomfortable on a hot day. It’s a cute little shop and highly recommend supporting local shops!

Nice pastelitos! The girl at the cash register spoke good English, Spanish and Portuguese which is helpful. She was also very helpful and patient taking the time to explain to me what things where and the prices. I got a cavasa coconut pudding bread , flan, and a chocolate hazelnut cake bomb. I also had beef and cheese and onion pastelitos which were so good right out the fryer. Only thing was that it was kind of expensive for what I got. Pastelitos where 7$ each, casava coconut bread 3$, flan 4$, chocolate bomb 3.50$, 2L soda 5$. I recommend the pastelitos for sure!

Wonderful staff, wonderful atmosphere. It’s my first time trying pastéis, and I was pleasantly surprised by how generous the portions were. The crispy texture of the pastry was perfectly complemented by the filling, for which I got the shop’s recommendation of chicken with heart of palm. The texture of the heart of palm goes so well with the pastry that I am keen to try another heart of palm filling next time. It was a delightful experience.

Traveling here, stopped by this place and the food is actually SO good and so cheap for how much volume you get. 9.710 on food Got the guluso and the beef, cheese, palms pastel

This pastelaria reminded me of home. It was a mix of a small grocery store serving local Brazilian treats and a typical “padaria”. I enjoyed a coxinha with catupiry (traditional teardrop-shaped fried snack filled with shredded chicken and creamy catupiry cheese) and pasteis de palmito and cheese with my family. The fillings were GENEROUS and the pasteis were all made on the spot, FRESH. While there was a considerable wait time, it was well worth it. If you’re thinking about eating in, this pastelaria is a cozier place with eight tables that can seat two people each. Parking around here can be a bit tricky. There are 3 parking spots right in front of the pastelaria. If they happen to be filled, I suggest going to the Stop & Shop parking lot about a block away.

Pastel Victoria and the Papaya-Ornage juice were both amazing! Quick and friendly service, despite being quite busy on a Saturday night.
