    We stopped in for breakfast when visiting family in Boston and it was great! The place is small but we were able to wait inside which was great because it was freezing outside. The inside was cozy and the service was great. Pancakes fluffy, breakfast burrito was great, breakfast tacos- amazing! I also loved that it was a Diners, Drive-ins and Dives spot!

    Mole
    Aya R.

    Items ordered: Fish taco, Gordita (veg), and Tostada w cactus salad (nopal) [Pozole, veggie taco, and side of mole also on the table] Service: Good service. Very small place and a ton of staff. Value: Prices are very reasonable at about $5 per item that I ordered. The Review: If you had looked at me while I was eating this, you would see tears streaming down my face. The food was so fresh, hot, and flavorful, I was in heaven. I came here with my mom, and back in the day we had lived in Mexico for some time. Angela's brought back wonderful memories and made some new ones too! There were many gluten-free options, and the staff are very knowledgeable about this. The tostada was perfectly crunchy and loaded with toppings. The fish was delicious. I will absolutely coming back to Angela's when in need of a bite from south of the border. Thank you!

    Mole Poblano De Angela

    Holy Molé this place is fantastic. The house mole with baby back ribs is worth a visit itself but the tacos, gorditas and everything else is also delicious. Wide ranging menu - not the same as "every other Mexican restaurant" in the Boston area. If you haven't been here check it out. Service is fast and friendly and it's a casual neighborhood spot. I believe it gets crowded for brunch and weekend dinner

    This fountain was so cool

    There's a reason why the ratings are so high for this place. If you're into very generous portions of fresh, authentic Mexican cuisine, served by friendly staff in a super cozy atmosphere, this could be the place for you. The prices were quite reasonable for the amount of food we got. We didn't struggle with a language barrier as the menu was available in English with each dish explained. The seating area is limited, but we got there just ahead of the breakfast rush so we didn't have a wait at all. Expect a wait time though - this place is hopping and we just got lucky this time. I'm still dreaming of that fried plantain. Next time I'm back in Boston I'll be coming here again!

    Had to stop by this spot that was just a few minutes' walk away from my AirBnB on my final morning in Boston! I was the first patron there since I arrived just after they opened, but the staff was very sweet & started my order right away. I ordered a cafe con lèche and the Centro America (no pics unfortunately). The coffee was piping hot & had great flavor without being at all too sweet. As for my meal, it was fresh and I did enjoy it but found it needed a little hot sauce for my taste. Very decently priced, especially since my plate was completely full! Would definitely give them another try if I'm back in this neighborhood :)

    The best Mexican food in Boston by far,I've been going to this place since 2018 and it never disappoints, you can not go wrong with anything on the menu. Service 10/10 always having super friendly familiar faces ! Veronica and Susan the best servers they been there for years The ambiance is super casual, fast pace nice family restaurant. Do not let the small restaurant fool you, they are able to host large parties

    Angela's Special

    Came here for breakfast right before the waitlist started so we got really lucky Pros: - Angela's Special and Deluxe Rancheros con Chorizo was delicious and hearty! Great portion sizes and flavors - Freshly squeezed OJ was so refreshing - Really friendly and efficient staff - One stall bathroom in the back Cons: - Small space

    Phenomenal food! Waitress was extremely friendly and helpful. The lighting was perfect and the music not too loud. Again must emphasize every single meal was absolutely delicious and we loved them all. Nothing was left to go

    Chilaquiles
    Jose C.

    We came here after landing at Logan. The place is very homey and right in the middle of a neighborhood. So street parking could be a little challenging, but they're there. The place is very tiny and can get packed at any given time. We had to wait about 30 minutes to get a table. My wife ordered their deluxe Huevos rancheros con chorizo. These were really good. You get two crispy corn tortillas, kind of like hand made tostadas, topped with refined beans, eggs, chorizo, avocado and queso fresco. The salsa was really good and the avocado and chorizo went perfectly with every bite. The same green salsa was used for the chilaquiles I ordered. The dish is very similar in flavor, just prepared differently. The chilaquiles came with chicken, other than that essentially the same dish. It came with beans, eggs, sour cream and queso fresco as well. I really enjoyed our breakfast here and would definitely come back next time I'm in Boston.

    Sopa De Pozole
    Marni M.

    My friends have been dying to take me to this authentic Mexican restaurant for a while. We finally went on a Saturday around noon. There were no available seats so we had to wait outside about 30 minutes for a table to open up. However, it was a beautiful day out so that was not a problem. For drinks my friends had the horchata and hot chocolate while I had the orange juice. Upon trying both of their drinks, I found out you couldn't go wrong with any of them. The horchata was considering light for a creamy drink and the hot chocolate was perfectly sweet. I couldn't tell if the orange juice was fresh squeezed but it certainly was sweet. We shared an order of guacamole and Queso Fundido. You could taste the fresh ingredients in the guacamole but the real star of the show was the melted cheese. Still popping hot from the oven, it provided a beautiful cheese pull before being gently placed in the flour tortilla. My friends ordered a chicken quesadilla and western omelette while I had a Sopa De Pozole. Since this was the first time that I tried this dish, I wasn't sure what to expect. I was happy I tried it since initial fascination was because it was a corn soup. Although a very small portion, since it was the lunch size, the extra side of rice I ordered made up for it. The soup was light and refreshing with the crispy fried tostada. We had no complaints for any of our dishes. To top everything off, we shared an order of the Crepas Con Dulce De Leche. The drizzled dulce de leche was delicious. I did find the pancakes to be fluffy but try so a little of syrup or butter was needed. Overall, we were more than satisfied with our meal and the service. Highly recommend!

    Taquería Jalisco is a casual Mexican restaurant in East Boston specializing in traditional…read morestreet-style tacos, tortas, tamales, and dishes inspired by the flavors of Jalisco. We walked into a small, unassuming space where the focus is squarely on freshly prepared food made with bold, authentic flavors. The dining room is modest and functional, with a counter and a handful of tables that give it the feel of a neighborhood taquería rather than a sit-down restaurant. The energy is practical and welcoming, with the open kitchen allowing us to see the tortillas being pressed and the meats being grilled fresh behind the counter. The birria tacos are the signature order and the dish that defines the menu. We ordered a few and found the tortillas crisped up on the griddle, the beef tender and well seasoned, and the rich consommé served on the side for dipping. The combination of the savory meat, the crispy tortilla, and the deep, slightly smoky broth made each bite feel layered and complete. Other standouts include the adobada tacos, which had a good char and a subtle spice that built gradually, and the lengua torta, with tender tongue layered between a soft roll and topped with fresh ingredients. The pozole was hearty and comforting, with a broth that carried the flavor of the hominy and meat without being overly heavy. The tamales, chicken flautas, and well-seasoned rice and beans rounded out the menu, each arriving hot and freshly made. The pickled onions and house salsas added extra flavor, and the horchata was a popular choice to pair with the meal, its cinnamon sweetness cutting through the richness of the dishes. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant maintained a relaxed neighborhood atmosphere that keeps people coming back. Despite its modest size, the kitchen moved efficiently, making it a reliable option for both dine-in and takeout. The staff checked in at the right moments and kept the pacing of the meal comfortable, ensuring that even when the small dining room filled up, the experience stayed smooth. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food in the Boston area, Taquería Jalisco stands out for its consistently flavorful cooking, generous portions, and menu built around classic recipes rather than modern interpretations. It is the kind of place where the food speaks for itself, and the simplicity of the setting only adds to the sense that you are eating something made with care and tradition.

I had been craving fish tacos for a really long time, and I was delighted to find a whole section of the menu dedicated to them. We started off with margaritas - one of the best companions to fish tacos - and I ordered mine spicy with jalapeño. For food, we shared the lobster empanadas and chorizo and potato taquitos. I ordered the tempura fish tacos for myself. Our margaritas were brought out shortly - mine was refreshing but lacked the kick from the jalapeño that I was hoping for (there was only one thin slice of pepper). Our food was brought out shortly, and I found it a bit overwhelming when our appetizers and tacos came out together. I started with my tacos, and these were excellent. The fish was flaky and fried to perfection, and I loved the rainbow of sauces and toppings. Plus, the tortillas were nice and sturdy and didn't tear. The lobster empanadas were super decadent, and I appreciated the substantial amount of lobster stuffed inside. I was too full to eat much of the taquitos but took a few bites. These also had good flavor but weren't standouts. Next time, I'd just get the tacos and maybe a light app. Towards the end of our visit, the restaurant seemed to clear out, and we had a difficult time trying to locate our server for the bill. Overall, we had a nice meal and satisfied the fish taco craving.

The restaurant is actually located in the public alley, not directly on Gloucester Street. The food was really good. I am obsessed with their rice and beans. Everyone seemed to love what they ordered! However, Im taking away two stars because of our service and our waitress. When we sat down, she casually asked, "Can I get you started with chips and guac?" At pretty much every Mexican restaurant I have ever been to, that phrasing implies it is complimentary. At no point did she mention that the guac was an added charge. We later found out we were charged $16 per guac, yes because she brought over TWO (!!) which totaled over $30, which felt really misleading. If something is meant to be an appetizer you are paying for, I expect it to be framed as, "Would you like to order any appetizers?" not presented as a default and free starter. That part left a sour taste in my mouth. I would consider coming back for the food, but I would be much more cautious ordering anything they recommend.

The carne asada was flavorful, but the veggie taco completely exceeded my expectations. Instead of the usual peppers and onions, it was loaded with fresh corn, eggplant, zucchini, cauliflower, and a mix of peppers that added great flavor and texture. It was colorful, fresh, and filling without feeling heavy. The real standout, though, was their homemade habanero salsa. It packed incredible flavor with a serious kick. I could still feel the heat lingering on my tongue long after I finished eating. I loved every second of it.

My only criticism--and it's a significant one for me--is the use of aluminum serving containers. I realize some restaurants still use them, but I personally don't think food should be served in direct contact with aluminum in 2026 when so many other options are available. It was a noticeable disappointment and detracted a bit from an otherwise yummy experience.
