★★★★☆ 4.0 Sam Stevens · Feb 2026

I was in the area and thought Mexican food sounded good so on my way home I decided to stop by. It was very empty which I was surprised as it was around 6:30pm on a weeknight. The woman who took my order was also the hostess so the service was a little odd. She was sweet. The place was cute, very unassuming. The food was pretty good but as a lot of people have mentioned the portions do not match the prices. It was ~$75 (plus tip) for 2 entrees. I got the enchiladas with chicken ($17.99 + $2 with avocado) and a quesadilla for later ($13.99), a dessert ($7.99) and a side of plantains ($6.99). I got a michelada and it was perfect, it wasn’t too sour. Seems kind of pricey for what it was. I feel like it would be better for grabbing a snack and a beer in the summer.

This place is awesome! I’ve tried the quesadilla, burrito, enchiladas, and a bunch of apps. Everything tasted incredible. Tres leches cake was some of the best I’ve had We originally weren’t going to eat here because the wait was long, but while we were walking by it looking for another place to eat, one of the servers waved at us to come back since a party was about to leave. Highly recommend this place!

Authentic Mexican food, with good prices. The flavors in the tacos and steak were delicious and the cocktails were well made. Food arrives in a timely manner. Would go again easily.

We ordered a burrito and a couple of Pacificos. Burrito was delicious and came out in 3 minutes. Cervezas were cold and refreshing. We sat on the patio in the sun. We found a new Mexican restaurant which we will return to again.

This is a great Mexican restaurant for the Boston area! There aren’t a lot of great ones around, and I’m real picky about my Mexican food. After visiting twice I’m sold on this place! The birria and shrimp nachos are some of the best I’ve ever had. The burritos are great and the pupusas are excellent. Definitely recommend a visit here!
