The unassuming taco place is usually the best place. The tacos were authentic to Mexico in its simplicity and tastiness. Refried beans on point. Steak tender and amazing. Hot salsa flavorful. I cried with joy because it’s so hard to find a legit taco place in Boston that reminds me of growing up in California. No fancy toppings, just straight up delicious food that speaks for itself.

Excellent birria tacos, great guacamole. The staff were friendly and even the music playing was perfect! Very reasonable prices, too. Will definitely be back next time I’m in the city.

The birria tacos are good. Wish there were more topping options.
Steak nachos were also good.

food was good but the place smells rank, like moth balls, and floors/surfaces are sticky. planned on dining in but decided to eat outside in the 90⁰ heat instead...that should tell you a lot. adding a star for the food but this would otherwise be a one. i wouldn't have eaten the food if i hadn't pre-ordered a mealpal.

The shrimp tacos and guacamole were amazing!!! The corn tortillas taste really good and don’t get soggy like other places usually do. My friend is gluten free so they try a lot of corn tortillas and they said these are the best!
Hidden Gem Across Emerson College This no-frills taqueria might be easy to miss if you're not looking for it, but it’s well worth seeking out. Primarily a takeaway spot just across from Emerson College, it caters perfectly to students and locals alike.
Despite the compact space, the menu is surprisingly extensive and budget-friendly, clearly designed with college students in mind. There are a handful of tables inside (seating about 15 to 20 people), but they are almost always full. Honestly, the best move is to grab your food and enjoy it wherever you’re most comfortable.
We ordered burritos, tortas, beans, and drinks. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. I've now been back three times, and each visit has impressed me even more. Highly recommended!

NEVER GOING HERE!
The smell of the place is basement and moldy and sweaty. Walked in there is no music, and the tables and sticky. The floors are also not clean.
Orders the taco plate. The rice is Ben rice bags - which is not authentic at all. The beans are from a can. They did not give us the sauce to pour ourselves which is not okay. (I know this because I’m Mexican)
The cilantro was under the stove storage and the cook used their hands with gloves to open the dirty stove drawer (looked sticky).
THE cook didn’t speak to us in Spanish, although once we walked away he started speaking fluent Spanish to their other cook. In our culture that’s ruin.(I’m fluent in Spanish)
We sat and ate and people would walk in and walk out because of the smell
ONLY GOOD THING HERE soda in a can.

Good and solid flavor but the place smells awful 😢…. It has a strong smell like sewage and it gave me a sense of dirtiness.
