Bonanza Bites and Cocktails

Bonanza Bites and Cocktails on Beacon Street in Somerville serves Latin American dishes with enough variety to make a shared dinner interesting. Sweet plantain gnocchi comes with short rib, while other choices include birria empanadas and picanha skewers with chimichurri. Stuffed mushrooms bring together plantain, chickpeas, and goat cheese for another direction.

The drinks list includes cocktails made with tequila, mezcal, pisco, and cachaça, so there’s plenty to consider beyond a margarita. Brunch has its own menu, including short-rib arepa Benedict with ají amarillo and guava pandebono pancakes. Check which menu is being served when you book. A few small plates and cocktails make sense here, but brunch gives you a different reason to return.
