“Best authentic Mexican food“

“Excellent drinks, great food, great service. We had a few of the cocktails, the taquitos, chips & salsa, quesabirria tacos, and a few other tacos. The cocktails are fantastic & unique, but expensive (standard Seaport prices). The food is also really good- so far the best Mexican food I've had in Boston - I know that bar is low but I'm from CA so my standard is high. The red salsa was nothing special, the green salsa is great. The taquitos are delicious and the quesabirria was perfect- when I go back I'm getting 2 quesabirria combos and that's it. Check this place out if you're in the area, and make a res on the weekends- I came here with some friends around 7 on a Saturday and there were no seats available. It's worth it!“

“Excellent Service, Food, Drinks, Atmosphere & Prices… a quintuple threat! The decor is so fun, the menu is huge and everything was delicious. Can’t recommend better and we love Mexican Food!!“

“Great experience this past weekend. It was a busy Saturday night. We ate at the bar which it seems like lots of locals do that. Plenty of space at the bar to eat. Bartender was great. Drinks were epic. Food was so good! Will definitely come back. Thank you to the hostess for fitting us in. She was a doll.“

“Had one of the greatest birthday dinners here! We had a large group for Mucho Monday, and it did not disappoint. They accommodated my allergy to alliums, and they even made a special watermelon margarita (off-menu) just fie us! 10/10 would highly recommend.“

“Delicious food along with wonderful Moroccan hospitality. My first time in Boston from the UK. I came to eat after Friday prayers and loved every minute of the experience. I ordered a kebab wrap then was given Harira to try. All of it delicious. I highly recommend this place in every way!“

“fajas texanas son buenas“

“I absolutely would recommend this establishment. The quesadillas are amazing as is their habanero salsa and fast service. Very kid friendly as they serve chips w salsa pretty fast.“

“I absolutely loved this place! Generous food portions, attentive and very accommodating staff, wonderful atmosphere. They also have a plethora of assorted hot sauces waiting for you at their side table. I wish I lived closer to Boston… I’d be there weekly if not every other day! A wonderful place to enjoy an afternoon snack or a full dinner near the Boston Museum (a few blocks away).“

“The staff is always extremely nice! The food is outstanding, very fresh-tasting and filling. I forgot to mention that I needed one taco separate from the rest of the order because I was dropping it off for someone and they quickly transferred one into a separate container, very accomodating!“

“Had a great evening there with some of my friends. Tons of tequila to choose from, the menu items were tough to choose from. I had the queso along with a quesadilla. I could've ordered more but I was stuffed. Service, food and drink was exquisite. I even ended up buying some merch! Great looking stuff. 10/10 Will be coming back!“

“Came from Georgia to visit and I absolutely loved the environment. All the waiters were great and drinks were good too. The guacamole was to die for as well as the chips. I come from a Mexican town and this place was on spot, I felt very welcomed. They also had a Banda which was great.“

“We live right down the street but it was our first time visiting Ocho! Christmas decor was so fun, live entertainment was great, service was fast & drinks were delicious and strong! Our server was Carlos- give that guy a raise!!! We will be back :)“

“Awesome takeouts from Mi Finca for DateNite last night!!! The Mi Finca Shrimp Chimichangas Dinner was incredibly DELICIOUS!!!! We paired the food w/ some homemade spicy margaritas :-)“

“If you’re looking for the true taste of Mexico in your food, I 100% recommend this taqueria in Boston. The flavor, presentation, and quality of their food are the best we’ve found across NY, CT, and Boston. In fact, their taste and quality even surpass the famous Tacos #1 in NY. On top of that, the staff’s attention is outstanding. This is a must-visit spot for anyone craving authentic Mexican flavors!“

“I can't believe I hadn't been here sooner!! Stopped for take out for the first time this week and service was quick, warm and friendly.

I beelined it for the BIRRIA TACOS which had excellent reviews online and I now agree and award Dora's with the OVERALL BEST COMBO AWARD (if there was one 😂).

Amazing. Filled (yes, filled) with juicy meat, no meat fat to ruin a random bite of your food, cheese and all other simple, delicious goodness. Then, the consume is actually perfectly tasty 😭 you'll want to dip your tacos in it constantly just bc you couldn't possibly think of letting it go to waste!

Looking forward to many returns 😉

P.s. Sweet plantains on the side is the cherry on top 😋“

“The food here is delicious!!!!! 100/10. When you get that little bite of plantain, chicken tinga , rice and black bean, perfection! I absolutely recommend.“

“Very good taqueria in a great location in Coolidge Corner, with metered street parking nearby.

Pleasant interiors, comfortable seating, clean restrooms. Fresh and tasty food in generous portions, friendly service, fair prices.

Yet not 5 stars because there are no fountain drinks and they don’t serve water for those who stay away from sugary drinks. Also no WiFi (for those of us who need to work on a laptop around lunch break). They play upbeat music in Spanish that is too loud and unsettling. The music makes you want to eat quickly and leave, which may be why most people just grab and go.“

“Great experience this past weekend. It was a busy Saturday night. We ate at the bar which it seems like lots of locals do that. Plenty of space at the bar to eat. Bartender was great.

“great food and excellent service. very much recommend“

“Went today a Tuesday. Service was horrible and they were not busy. Waited 5 minutes before we walked up to a server to ask to be seated. Waited another 10 minutes for water , 10 more to order drinks, then 15 min to order apps. Apps came out before drinks which took about 20min to come out. Food was horrible. I don't know how you can mess up chips with salsa & guac or a chicken quesadilla flavor wise. Chips were overcooked. Quesadilla chicken was under cooked. Birria tacos were pure salt. Pico all we tasted was lime. Ordered a mixed drink but it was all liquor. Asked for a manager & told there was not one available. My birthday dinner ruined. As you can see from the pics we did not finish our main courses because they were not eatable. We did not take them home either. Great presentation but thats about all that was good.“

“Our law firm had a great meal here with excellent service and food. It's a good spot for business lunches or client meetings.“

“The Avocado Rice Bowl is delicious! Fresh and flavorful. Very filling! Waitstaff are very pleasant as well!“

“I love how hot, fast, and fresh the food is. Such a blend of unique flavors to start the day off right. Coffee is always hot and fresh. Service is welcoming and friendly. It's tough not to eat here everyday.“

“After coming from the dentist, my food choices were limited. Truthfully I just needed a simple home cooked meal.

I definitely got it at Acapulco Restaurant. Customer service excels at this Mom and Pop venue.

The Margarita was expertly prepared and complimented the whole meal. There was plenty from the chips and plain salsa to the number one, which included rice and beans.

I felt valued, and there was great hospitality. I'll be sure to come through more often.“

“I can't believe I am only now writing a review for this place. I used to come there all the time when I worked in the neighborhood. When you come in, you can see that they cook their meats fresh in a giant drum. I therefore know the principal ingredients are fresh. I do miss the pre-inflation days but I still think it's reasonably priced. One worker used to know my order by heart. I am glad that there has been no drop off in quality since the olden days. Will probably go back if I'm hungry and in the area.“

“Tacos are my favourite food and these, by far, are the best tacos I’ve ever had.“

“Excellent atmosphere inside and out“

“You have to try the carnitas torta! It also needs to be profiled on some foodie show!! Delicious!“
