Adam SigelJuly 14, 2016The baja and carnitas tacos are good. The yucateca sandwich is very filling, and the cubano is pretty good. For a quick bite of Mexican with a cozy outdoor space in their side alley, it's very good.UpvoteDownvote
Their burritos are next-level delicious. When you ask for it spicy, it actually has a reasonable amount of kick. Just ask for meat + everything + spicy if that's your thing.

my favorite burrito place. if you like your food spicy, ask for the habanero sauce. love that guac doesn't cost extra and chips & salsa are included with your burrito!UpvoteDownvote

Scott BoniAugust 30, 2013Get a Torta. It doesn't matter which one because they're all delicious. Cool little take away spot AND there's Strawberry Jarritos :-)UpvoteDownvote
Briar BNovember 25, 2012The "other" burrito place...theirs are top notch, and you get chips with your burrito—although less and less chips the longer they're in business.UpvoteDownvote
Leah KNovember 17, 2012Delicious with chunks of chicken breast and posole/hominy any tyke could try (not spicy)

Jake FochettaApril 1, 2016Braised pork is really good. Small patio/tables to the side if it's nice out.UpvoteDownvote
BravoNovember 12, 2010The most delicioso bocadillos in Boston. Mexican flavors are fresh and balanced in all of the yummy sandwich options. -Tania Peterson, Top Chef Just DessertsUpvoteDownvote
Michael TousignantSeptember 29, 2013Great for a late night stop-in in Inman Sq. The Baja tacos are on another level.Upvote1Downvote- Burritos and baja tacos! Their sandwiches are huge and quesadillas are good tooUpvoteDownvote
Tyler BallietAugust 29, 2011Great food! But it's crowded and they do not streamline anything even if you order from the app. If it's busy, you're waiting. But the food is good!UpvoteDownvote
Martín CaballeroAugust 14, 2011One of the best burritos in Boston/Cambridge. Good shrimp tacos w/ pickled cabbage and also pretty good tortas.Upvote2Downvote
Sour cream and guac included! Huge in the burrito world these days.UpvoteDownvote
The baja taco is hands down one of the best things you will ever eat.UpvoteDownvote
Emily GOctober 7, 2010The salad with grilled veggies is amazing. Especially if you like avocados and portobello.UpvoteDownvote
Go to Olecito and get a piolin. It's the best item on the menu. I recommend Pepperjack instead of the default cheese, and add hot sauce. It's yummy.UpvoteDownvote
Garren KatzNovember 13, 2010Boylan fountain sodas. So yummy. Get 1/2 glasses and try a bunch.UpvoteDownvote- Fast and tasty--like any good burrito should be.UpvoteDownvote
In the great "best burrito" calculation, they have the best rice.UpvoteDownvote
Byron ProntApril 22, 2012Good but generally overrated. Shrimp was hard but the pork was tender. Went with frank and ElaineUpvoteDownvote
