    Birria tacos

    Birria tacos are a solid 4/10 wouldn't recommend if that's the main thing your looking for, sauce tastes like tomatoe soup, tacos aren't crispy but Birria is tender

    Maggie Z.

    Took a chance on this place based from Yelp and I wanted somewhere close to Quincy, and this place did not disappoint! Parking on street, no ample parking but not too hard to find. I'm not familiar with the area of Dorchester but the area seems to be up and coming. It's a small restaurant with maybe 10 seatings. Prices are a bit expensive with tacos around $3.5-4 per taco and around $12 for a burrito. But honestly for Boston... it's pretty cheap compared to some places so expensive is relative. I ordered 2 reg tacos (Al pastor & carnitas) and an order of birria (3 tacos). The tacos themselves were ok.. I probably wouldn't get again. Thought a little bland overall but the meat itself was super flavorful. Also I ordered corn tortilla but they tasted and look like flour. However, the birria was super flavorful! I haven't had authentic to compare to but the better of birria I've had. My bf got the chicken tinga burrito and it was really big and tasted great! Not sure the dessert cup we got but we thought it was flan cake. It wasn't but it was also amazing. Definitely come here and give this place a try!

    I order my Birria tacos from this place all the time through UberEats. I decided to stop by today and eat at the restaurant and because I was craving their Birria tacos. Such a cute little restaurant. The service was great. Definitely one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in

    Pretty good Mexican place on the south side for those not wanting to travel to East Boston Stumbled upon this randomly and the first time I tried, it was really good. Second time was meh. Ordered tamale and it wasn't that good. Got the chimichanga and it was small compared to what chimichanga really is. The flavor was really good inside though. Although they are pretty pricey on their food I will say

    3 birria tacos for $14. I would've preferred it without the sprinkled cheese on top and the consommé was too tomato-y. Overall, it was decent but nothing to rave about.

    I gave 2 stars mainly because they charge 10% tips for pickup food. Otherwise, it'll be 3 stars. The food is ok. I ordered the Birria Tacos and I have to say takeout food does not taste good. Maybe it'll be better for dine in. The tacos just taste very ordinary. With tips and tax, the dish is a bit more than $17. I wouldn't order it again for sure.

    Chicken Tinga Chimichanga plate. Yum!!!

    No thanks to the pandemic that coincided with the opening of this small, cozy and colorful eatery in early 2020, I've only recently discovered Dora Taqueria, at 112 Stoughton Street, Dorchester, MA 02125 (in between Columbus Ave to the north and Dot Ave to the south). It was worth the wait! My favorite is the Chicken Tinga chimichanga plate (shown in the photo). Stuffed with tangy chicken, rice, onions, and beans, and covered with melted cheese, the chimi's perfect compliment is the house pico de pina, with its additional punch of tangy goodness: fresh cilantro, jalapeno, onions, and tomato. The chimichanga plate is complimented with a small sides of salad, rice and beans dusted with crumbled cheese. Also shown in the pictures, Dora's generous selection of hot sauces, available via the hot sauce station located toward the back. A recent take-out delivery included a trio of tasty shrimp tacos, with sides of guacamole, salsa, and chips. All...devoured. Glad to have found Dora Taqueria right around the corner and in between my hikes to and from nearby Upham's Corner BPL location and on the way back from Devine Golf Course and the Franklin Park Zoo. No doubt, I'll become a regular. Ph.

The establishment itself doesn't have much space--just a small counter with bar seating by the window that fits about three people, and a single table that seats maybe six. It's definitely more of a take-out spot. I had the place to myself, so I ordered a chicharrón burrito ($13) and fried yuca ($7). I didn't expect to finish it all. The burrito came out in less than five minutes. The rice was well-salted and flavorful, the plantains added a surprising sweetness, and the chicharrones were satisfyingly crispy. The pico de gallo tasted extra fresh, and the tomato salsa had that slight grit you only find in freshly made versions. This burrito was also loaded--I was full after finishing it. One small nitpick: I would have preferred a pressed tortilla for a bit more heat and structure. About halfway through my burrito, the yuca fries arrived. They came topped with shredded lettuce and more of that fresh tomato salsa. The portion was generous here as well. None of that "five sticks of yuca for $10 at the upscale Latin American place" nonsense. Viva Taco is neighborhood comfort food at its finest--quick and filling without sacrificing flavor, and at a reasonable price point. It might not be perfect, but it's exactly the sort of place I wish every community had.

I found that the serving size was great especially for the price and all the flavors came together perfectly. The steak was cooked well and had a generous amount, the cilantro rice (excellent choice) did not have too much of a cilantro flavor but it is green so I'm thinking they add some to it. Everything tasted fresh. I think what makes the bowl so good is the sauces on top. The blend between sour cream and the chipotle mayo made the food creamier. The second time I ordered a chicken bowl with the same toppings and sauces. This time I paid a little more attention to the taste of each ingredient and individually they are fresh and good but together they also work well. The chicken was tender and a good amount given (maybe a little over half a cup). The chipotle mayo has a Smokey flavor like paprika which I normally wouldn't like, but again it works here. I'm excited to continue to try more items on their menu.
