What People Are Saying
from Google"Wife and I were in Jamaica Plain and stopped in to try somewhere new-to-us. Location is great, staff was super nice, food was wonderful. Cool atmosphere with 3-4 tables and a high top bar table. I ordered 3 carnitas tacos. The wife got 3 al pastor taco meal (with beans and rice). And we got the chips and salsa. The plate had nice portions of the sides. Everything was great. Will return."
"Me and my friend ordered from this location tonight , literally just got the food 10 mins ago on a uber delivery. I ordered a quesadilla and as I was biting into it a long hair came out of inside the quesadilla into my mouth… 🤮🤮🤮 very very disappointed and very disgusted. I had to spit the hair out and I couldn’t even eat the food anymore , which is such a waste as I just started eating it so 90% of the food didn’t get eaten. I got uber credit for the thing which was $12 however I don’t feel that makes up for finding a whole entire piece of hair inside of my food . So upsetting as I am still hungry and not wanting to eat anymore as I lost my appetite!"
"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Burrito Engineering Here Deserves a Nobel Prize I don’t know who’s wrapping burritos at this place, but I hope they’re being paid at least double and have a statue in their honor out back. This was hands down the best-constructed burrito I’ve ever had in my life—and I’ve eaten enough burritos to be on some sort of government watchlist. You know how most burritos fall into two camps? Either they’re stuffed to the point of bursting or they’re so loose and floppy you need a team of engineers and a prayer to keep them intact. Not here. This burrito was tightly wrapped with surgical precision—like it was assembled by a former NASA technician who found their true calling in burrito craftsmanship. No leaks. No blowouts. No sad fork-scooping at the end. Just pure, structural perfection from first bite to last. I didn’t even need a second napkin. It held together better than most of my life choices. Oh, and it tasted amazing too. But honestly, the real star was the wrap job. I’d eat it again just to admire the architecture. 10/10 would recommend."
"Ordered from UberEats last night and found a piece of staple in my al pastor taco. It was in the meat when I took a bite felt something poke me luckily no injury. Disregarded my tacos after that didn’t feel safe to continue eating and going forward. Reported it to uber but nothing yet. Be careful & check your food. Oh they also forgot the three passion fruit drinks I ordered"
"Feeling Terrible – Back Bay is Still Better I ordered birria quesadillas online, thinking I was getting the real thing, but the menu names were so confusing that I ended up with something different. When I went to the store to ask for help, they basically blamed me for ordering the wrong thing and refused to fix it because they “would lose money.” I wasn’t expecting a free meal—just a little customer service. Now, to be fair, the food itself was good, but it still wasn’t worth $20. The meat wasn’t spread out well, and there were way too many globs of cheese. It could have been put together better, but the flavor was solid. Good, but not to die for like Back Bay. I guess I appreciated that they gave me a side of consomé when I drove all the way there, but still—help me out. That said, I still wouldn’t come back. Between the poor customer service and the confusing menu names—seriously, why wouldn’t “birria quesadilla” be the right name instead of “quesobirria”?—it’s not worth it. If you want good food and good service, just go to the Back Bay location instead."
