Really enjoyed my first visit here at Chivo Taqueria!! I was greeted as soon as I walked in the door. Made my way to the counter and built my large chicken burrito just the way I wanted it, thus it was delicioso. But that’s only because the ingredients all tasted so freshhhhh and the chicken was nicely grilled/cooked. Next time I’ll have to try the torta and see if it’s just as great! I must say though that it was nice to find a Mexican restaurant that has that authentic flavor. It’s my first week here coming over from Portland, OR and glad I was able to find some excellent Mexican food with that authentic flavor. If you’re in the area and looking for some delicious food, this is your spot!! Go visit!

I am pregnant and to my pregnant girlies — run do not walk here for your first trimester cravings. I literally have come here every single day the last week. Their small burrito is the only thing I can stomach and I love that they make the tortilla toasted and warm on the grill — such a special touch. Their atmosphere and parking situation is super easy in that area. And the price point for a small burrito for 10.99 is perfect. This baby is being grown on Chivos. So GOOD.

Absolutely delicious!! I had a carnitas burrito which was amazing! I could taste the freshness of the ingredients. The carnitas were juicy and full of flavour, I also had a piña colada which was very good, the place itself is nice I loved the tables makes feel in a different environment.

Solid taqueria near Harvard, especially for breakfast.

Stopped by a couple times in the morning, and it’s one of the few taquerias in the area that actually opens early. I usually crave a hearty Mexican or Salvadorian-style breakfast when I’m really hungry, and this place offers simple, well-executed, no-frills plates.

Chivo’s Breakfast was a classic Latin American-style combo plate. Straightforward, comforting, and exactly the kind of meal you’d find at a neighborhood spot anywhere from CDMX to San Salvador. Omelette Mexicana was also solid, though it felt like a remix of Chivo’s breakfast, just in omelette form. Nothing surprising, but satisfying.

Burrito bowl came in generous portions, but I made the mistake of adding guac—which tacked on an extra $4.50. It worked fine without it, but $17 for a burrito bowl without any premium proteins felt a bit steep.

Harvard Square already has solid go-tos for burrito bowls like Felipe’s and El Jefe’s, so I’m not sure I’d go out of my way just for that. But if you’re nearby and want something filling with good portions—especially in the morning—this is a reliable option.

Really friendly service and incredible tacos. My first time having birria tacos, so freaking good. Still one of the best meals I‘ve had in the Boston area so far.

Absolutely delicious breakfast!! I got the Chivo breakfast, asked for the eggs to be over easy and a side of salsa verde, the refried beans are some of the best I’ve had ❤️

Legitimately one of my favorite dining establishments ever. Dangerously delicious delicacies that will have you hooked from the first bite. Seriously I think I’m addicted, I come here several times a week.

The food is super flavourful and you can’t go wrong with any options — try them all! The chimichanga is my personal fave, with a tres leches for desert .

Also try the breakfast — super filling, traditional, and tasty!

I really enjoy eating at Chico Taqueria.

I ate my very first papusa ever here (cheese and beans) along with a chicken taco. The restaurant was spotless clean, the people working there were very friendly, and the food was incredibly tasty.

Usually I alternate between Los Amigos, Anna’s, and Felipes for my tacos and burritos (ranked least frequent to most frequently visited). I think that this place will now be my number one spot. Here’s why:

1. Double wrapped corn tortilla tacos with GENEROUS portions. One taco could fill you up if you were hungry and on a tight budget.

2. Quality of ingredients and variety of sauces and condiments was superior and wider than anywhere else in the area.

3. Patient staff, I did not feel rushed at all.

Highly recommend this place!!

Excellent food! I got pork and cheese and bean and cheese pupusas. Everything was fresh and very tasty. I got the flan after as they had just made them and I could not resist. Nice little place on Mass Ave in Cambridge. Parking meter parking. Worth it.

Wow this spot was sooo good! The portion sizes r good and the food is delicious. They have a bunch of protein options and don’t skimp on it. The toppings are also good and I believe 5 are included. Definitely an outstanding experience and will be coming back for sure!
