The food is great. I always get the taco special. The ingredients are fresh.
The only downside is the waiting area. You are packed like sardines in line to place or pick up an order.
I would definitely suggest calling ahead and placing an order for takeout over the phone.
There are a few tables for sit-down dining but the room is very tight and crowded.

Fantastic food, and wonderful staff! Get as many different tacos as you can, they're all excellent. And don't forget to ask for the hot salsa!

The best hole in the wall tacos ever! Don't let the unassuming look outside fool you, this is the best kept secret in the area.

I wonder who the new owner is. The food looks and tastes different. I’m pretty sure the owner is no longer Mexican.

So far, these are the best tacos I’ve had on the East Coast. I usually order la lengua and chips and salsa. Prices have gone up since I first started going here but the food is still worth it.

This is the best Mexican restaurant we have had since moving to Boston over a year ago. My husband got rhe Mexican Plate and I got the Taquitos Dorados. Amazing! If you are looking for authentic Mexican food - this is the place to go!

What else can I say that hasn't already been said. This is the little hole in the wall restaurant that won Yelp's 100 best restaurants. Delicious, authentic Mexican food and gracious service. Don't come for the ambiance, come for the food. And come early if you want a table.
