Vaya Restaurant was established in 2020 In the heart of downtown Lawrence, MA. A unique, family-oriented atmosphere where guests are brought close to their Dominican roots, but with a little kick! Vaka’s tapas style menu features a delectable array of Dominican-Japanese fusion cuisine mastered by the world-famous chef, El Ninja. The fun and electric menu complements Vaka’s décor, inspired by Dominican Republic’s rich history.
