Our Story • From Santo Domingo to Main Street

Authentic Dominican Home Cooking in Waltham

"There are no industrial secrets in our kitchen, just respect for Grandma's recipes."

Dominican Grill began with a simple, unwavering mission: to bring the unmistakable aromas and generous spirit of Dominican home cooking to Massachusetts. Every morning, we hand-select firm green plantains, crush fresh garlic with coarse sea salt, and fire up the grills for the day ahead.

True Dominican mofongo is hand-mashed to order in a traditional guayacán wood mortar, with crispy pork cracklings and warm broth for a light, comforting texture. Our meats spend 24 hours in a homemade marinade of sour orange, wild oregano, and spices before meeting the flame.

What You Will Find in Our Kitchen

Our traditions come through in the ingredients, techniques, and way we share a meal.

Plantains at the Heart

Green plantains give mofongo its substance and tostones their crisp texture. When ripe, they become a sweet side. One ingredient offers several ways to discover Dominican cooking.

Garlic, Herbs & Seasoning

Garlic, oregano, and marinades connect many dishes on our menu. In the meats, stews, and sauces, these flavors build the home-style character we aim to bring to every table.

Our menu lets you combine entrées, sides, and sharing platters for different tastes. From an everyday meal to a family tray, the idea is simple: find something everyone can enjoy.
