“I have been here a few times now. Service is kinda scattered with takeout orders taking a bit of time to be fulfilled. Other than that, the food is good. It's nice to have another takeout restaurant in this area. Overall, a good place to grab takeout on that random day you just want to walk down the street to get food.“
“Love this place, both times I’ve dined here I have had an amazing experience! Their margaritas are delicious, not to mention strong. Service wonderful and staff very friendly. The chicken mole enchiladas are my favorite. Can’t wait to come back!“
“This place is awesome. The only reason it has so many bad reviews is that it's so close to Marblehead and all of it's stuck up, snobby, entitled inhabitants. Chipotle is a certified hood classic and this is the place to go especially after a sick pump at the Marblehead YMCA.“
“THIS PLACE WENT FROM BEING ONE OF THE BEST GEMS TO A PLACE THAT FEELS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO EVEN SET A FOOT IN. I'VE BEEN TO THIS PLACE FOR OVER 10 YEARS, SINCE PANDEMIC HAVE NOT GONE. WE FINALLY WENT, THE MINUTE I WALKED IN THE PERSON AT CASHIER SAID WHEN YOUR READY TO ORDER YOU COME HERE, BLINDED BY IT AS IS A RESTAURANT NOT A FAST FOOD SPOT I LOOKED AT HER AND ASK FOR THE MENU SHE LOOKS AT ME AND POINTS INFRONT OF HER TO GO GET IT MIND YOU, THERE ARE 3 OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO WORK THERE .....I LET IT PASS AND TRIED TO GIVE THIS PLACE A SECOND CHANCE COMING BACK THE FOLLOWING WEEK AS THE FOOD ACTUALLY WAS GOOD THE WEEK PRIOR. WELL SERVICE WAS ONLY WORSE THIS TIME AROUND, THE WOMAN AT CASHIER LOOKED BOTHER BY JUST BEING THERE TAKING OUR ORDER AS THE TIME PRIOR OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO ALSO WORKED THERE STANDING JUST THERE. WE GET OUR FOOD REALIZING I GOT CORN TORTILLAS ASKED IF THEY CAN BE SWITCHED TO FLOURONE OF THE EMPLOYEES RESPONSE WELL IF YOU DON'T EAT THEM THERE GOING TO THE TRASH AND I AM LOOKING AT HER LIKE OKAY IS FINE CAN I PAY FOR AN EXTRA ORDER OF TORTILLAS OF FLOUR. THE AMOUNT OF DISPLEASSURE THESE WOMAN HAVE BEING THEIR IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SERVED, ASIDE FROM THE FOOD FEELING SO RUSH THIS TIME AROUND AS WE GOT THERE AT 8 THEY CLOSED AT 10PM. I UNDERSTAND RESTAUTANT INDUSTRY IS NOT EASY BUT FOR ME TO GO TO AND SPEND MY MONEY IN A PLACE THAT FEELS SO FORCED TO WORK IS NOT WORTH MY TIME NOR MONEY.“
“We went to Angela's for brunch on a Saturday morning. It gets busy so it's best to come early. The food was great! We shared the shrimp ceviche and both had huevos rancheros. Which we enjoyed every bites of it all. We also had a coffee and an Agua de Jamaica. The staff were super friendly. The restaurant was clean and felt super cozy. We will definitely come by again!“
“I don't know how to describe this place. Then top tier hole on the wall mexican food. You would not expect this out of where its location is. But this is by far the best place to get El. Pastor tacos and berea tacos. Don't be afraid to order anything here. It's all very very good. Extremely polite staff and everything is top to your quality for a reasonable price. Never be afraid of stopping here.“
“Absolutely delicious and authentic style Mexican food. I had the TACOS BIRRIA my girlfriend had the tempura shrimp tacos. We are from NY and here staying at an Air BNB up the road , if we lived local we would be ordering from here at least once a week ! Highly recommend.“
“This place is incredible, you get there and you feel happy, all the colors and decorations just have an impact on your mood instantly. The food is really really good, it’s authentic and high quality. This place truly makes me feel at home. Also the owners take care of every single detail and they are always improving. Love Esquite taqueria.“
“The empanadas have a nice light texture and flavor, we got two of each. The accompanying sauce was flavorful and spicy, but not too hot. The street corn was off the cob, but delicious and generous enough for 4 people. Everything tastes from scratch.“
“The lady at the cash counter is very warm and sweet. Always welcomes customers with a bright smile on her face. I love returning to this location for the very same reason. The portions sizes are not always consistent though. But I love being a regular here“
