About Us | Menu | Fiestas/Catering | Store | Contact | Home




Orinoco is inspired by the "taguaritas"-- small, casual, rustic, and inviting eateries found along Venezuelan roadsides. The menu includes old family recipes that blend the cuisines and flavors of the Andes and the Caribbean. Orinoco also offers authentic South American wines, beers, and tropical fruit drinks. Located on an historic Shawmut Avenue corner, Orinoco brings an affordable and neighborhood focused dining tradition to Boston's South End.

Please note that, due to our snug, intimate space, we are not able to accept reservations.
