Seed-Oil-Free Restaurants
in Hyde Park

Boston Restaurant Bar & Grill specializes in American and Haitian comfort food, with a strong emphasis on fried items—fried chicken, wings, fritay (a traditional Haitian fried meat dish), fritters, and french fries are prominently featured on the menu. We found no information on their website or menu about which oils they use for frying. Since they do not disclose clean fats (beef tallow, lard, etc.) and deep frying is a core part of their operation, standard restaurant practice suggests seed oils. We recommend calling them directly to ask if they fry in anything other than vegetable/canola oil.

Delicias Colombianas is a traditional Colombian restaurant with a full menu centered on grilled meats (steaks, chorizo, carne asada), which are typically cooked clean. However, the menu prominently features fried items—French fries, fried chicken, fried plantains, and various deep-fried appetizers—without any specification of cooking oils. The restaurant does not publicly disclose what oil it uses for frying. We recommend calling (857) 342-7976 to ask directly whether they fry in seed oils, tallow, lard, or another fat.
