Vegetarian options: Finally, food with flavor, open late for vegetarians. The red salsa is the best because it's well balanced and it's spicy but not too hot. It's my favorite.

I just went in to grab a burrito and while I was watching the staff prepare it, the person who was stationed by the guac/cheese area kept wiping her fingers on a dirty rag, then touching my burrito, even at one point accidentally wiping the burrito with the rag. She then wrapped the burrito up incorrectly and it exploded pretty bad. She broke the tortilla trying to re-wrap it (a lot of the burrito had been smushed out at this point) so another member of the staff had to come and see what she had done. She tried to grab a new tortilla to make a new burrito but the other staff member just re-wrapped the mushed burrito (which was gross at this point, also the rag action was pretty gross too), and handed it off to the cashier who looked at it in disgust. I was pretty shocked that they were still trying to sell it to me. I didn't want to cause any issues because there was a line building up so I just bought it. The cashier seemed surprised I bought it, but didn't say anything. The whole thing felt pretty unsanitary and I'm surprised they didn't ask me to get back in line to re-make it. I ended up throwing it out immediately because I don't want to eat something that's been touched by a kitchen rag and then kind of destroyed. I feel bad writing this because up until this point I really liked this place!! I also completely understand how busy the place can get but I feel like there was a better way to remedy the situation and remain sanitary.

I called the restaurant and a guy answered speaking in spanish. I asked if anyone spoke English he said no. lol all the reviews have comments where the restaurant staff are responding in English, yet no one speaks English. The menu is also in English, yet no one speaks English.... we're in the USA ,you're here to run a business , but not one of your staff speaks English ... I would order online but if they can't speak English they can't read in English either... I'll keep my money in my pocket ?

I got the breakfast special which was incredible value. Two 8" tortilla burritos (with generous filling) and home fries for $9. Tasty, and friendly staff. Plus, a whole rack of a variety of hot sauces to try with your meal. Will return if I am in Boston again.

Scrumptious Mexican food. Good spot for a late night dinner, the seating is small but the music is always a vibe! Lovely food and very good quantity as well!

Impressive steak tacos at the burrito place! The ambiance had a gritty Gotham City vibe, and the crowd, mostly young, was a bit rowdy. Quaint decor, basic furnishings, and efficient chefs behind the counter. Despite the slow food delivery and a slightly high price, the delicious taste makes it worth the wait.
