Taqueria

Great burritos and quesadillas. Comparatively smaller portions than other places, or similar to the small/regular option of other taquerias with large options. The food I enjoy: The burritos are simple but satisfying and filling. My favorite is the El Guapo, which has steak and plantains. The two ingredients make it a sweet and savory burrito which I surprisingly enjoyed together very much. The quesadillas are on the smaller side, but very delicious. The enchiladas and tamales are also good. Their guacamole and hot sauce are tasty additions to your food as well. I've eaten here many times and every ingredient has always been fresh. The food that wasn't to my tastes: I enjoy fish tacos, but I wasn't of fan of the ones here. The shell was fine, but asides from the small fish pieces, the only flavor was from some chile mayo. They were filled with blandness from six whole slices of cucumber that I didn't think went well with the tacos and a bunch of pickled cabbage. The tortas have a generous amount of the same great ingredients, but they are not executed well. Both times I've ordered them, including eating in, the bread was soggy and the torta just fell apart outside of the aluminum foil. I didn't have this issue in other places. If they would get rid of some of the extra liquid, I think they'd actually be really good. The Calabacitas (veggies) was okay, but nothing special. It was very liquidy. Service: The atmosphere and employees here have always been great and I would recommend this place for most items. Atmosphere: There are several tables here, most college students since this is right next to Boston College. Parking: It is difficult to park in the small area right out front. There are about 10 spaces, but it's for several stores in this area. There are a few more spots on the side, but you'll be driving down the side street filled with one-way residential streets, which may make it inconvenient to back on your route.

Okay just to start out I'm only rating this a four-star because there is no decent salsa and no alcoholic beverages served. Aside from that, super extra delicious loving comfort Mexican food that I will go back and seek out again every time I am visiting my daughter in Boston. It's very convenient to the Boston College campus and is always lively with students. Don't go there if you're not expecting to get some food on your lap. The burritos come wrapped in aluminum foil and that is a great thing until you unwrap it and start biting into that burrito which ends up on your lap and on the floor and on the table and on the napkins. That's the way it ought to be.

Ordered takeout from here tonight for the 3rd time. Very good, as it has been every time. Food: 5/5 We got chips, guac, and fire roasted salsa to start. Their chips are thick, and nicely salty. The guac is tasty & reliable, while the fire roasted salsa is served warm, smoky, a little heat and good flavor. We also tried both the chicken and fish burritos. Both very good—especially the fish (unusual to find such a good fish burrito at a fast casual joint). Definitely our favorite burritos in the Boston area, that we’ve tried! Service: 5/5 Food ready quickly and on time. Haven’t had much other interaction with staff since we’ve ordered online.

Moving my daughter in to BC, I thought we would try some Mexican food , good choice, right down the street from the BC campus ! Small place but pleasant ; food was fresh and tasty . When going back to BC I will certainly stop in again fir them delicious food ! Enchiladas were great! Burrito was excellent , according to Victoria . 😁
