I had the birria burrito, elotes, and flan, and they all tasted amazing, especially when paired with their green sauce. Food came out quick and it was easy to order. Cozy place right next to the orange line, very convenient. 10/10 would recommend.

Just picked up an online order. They forgot to include a soda inside the bag. When I called to ask for a refund they said its my responsibility to take the soda from the fridge. When I requested a refund they were telling me I have to come back to the store, so I asked for the charge for the soda be reversed and put back on my credit card. Service clerk doesn’t know how to and wants me to take the loss or come back when his managers in. He hung up the phone when I kept asking how I can move forward with the refund. I’m not gonna pay for something I didn’t receive. Terrible customer service and not the first time I ran into issues at this location run by a bunch of incompetent kids.

I tried the Taco plate, hard shell taco, burrito bowl, churros, Mexican coke and Tamarind Jarriotos with my friends. It was so delicious and authentic. We all loved it. The salsa was so good especially.

I had the best BIRRIA tacos! I absolutely love them! So delicious! Thank you! The churros were good but I prefer dulce de leche dip not this bitter chocolate! Just a reccomendation but still very delicious! Thank you!

Been here 5 times and every time I give them another chance it doesn’t get any better, they need better workers to service and the food never fresh tasted reheated, rice always seems to be dry and stale and the portions they give you for the bowl based on the price and type of food you might as well make it yourself at home, Too expensive for the small amount. La Taqueria Is Cheaper and Gives Me better portion of Food. Young lady in the front is great but can’t speak the same for the rest of the workers who work the front. Need better training on customer service.

The Birria tacos are amazing! The taco plate was watery and less flavorful, and didn’t come with any tortillas like the menu described. I definitely recommend this spot.

There’s a saying that: “A good taco doesn’t need cheese. A good taco only needs a little bit of lime and cilantro.” This statement is true when it comes to this place – which is a huge compliment since Boston is famous for its lack of authentic, good taco restaurants.
(Came with a mexican friend who had been searching for good tacos in Boston for a long time.)
Got 4 tacos with 4 different fillings: Al pastor (pork with pineapple), Papa’s con chorizo (potatoes and meat), lengua (beef tongue), and pork en Chile Verde (carnitas in salsa).
Homemade taco shells – fresh, warm, thick and soft without that grainy texture.
All the meat were super tender and juicy. The Papa’s con chorizo didn’t blow me away – could taste more potatoes than chorizo (if any). But I would definitely come back to get the Al pastor and pork en Chile Verde.
Also got the horchata which was delicious! It reminded of sweetened almond milk with cinnamon. If you don’t like cinnamon, don’t get this drink.
My friend got the quesadilla with the Papa’s con chorizo. Wasn’t blown away with it but we think it’s because of the filling. The potatoes were too plain – not enough flavors. Good amount of melted cheese and the guac is perfect.
Very filling meal, delicious, and it can get Super messy since the filling will topple out of the taco shell with every bite – but no complaints there.
The space is small. Only counter space to eat with maybe 7 chairs.
Service is great and fast!

Found a live beetle in my food. I showed the staff and the cursed me out and refused to give me my money back. This will be dealt with, making sure the city of Boston puts a B or C in the window of this dirty place. Staff told me both “you’re being too picky” when I didn’t just take the big out and that “it’s not their fault, it probably just fell into the meat”. $16 for 2 tacos and a drink and they send me on my way hungry and without the money I spent. Literally saw my food moving, disgusting.

Are you kidding me?! 3 baby plantains for $2.50? As a hispanic, is the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard. If you want to pay an arm and a leg for gentrified street food, go here.

it is as advertised- locally owned good food. its a small place but plenty to fit 8 or so people eating in. food is hot fresh and comes out within minutes. i do wish prices were stated on the menu rather than blacked out, but i think the flavor and quality was well worth the price i paid.
