Starting from the moment I walked in I felt like I was at home. The service was wonderful as the person serving me my food and I had a great conversation in Spanish. Very refreshing atmosphere and food was top tier. I could tell the ingredients were fresh and bursting with flavor. Coming back soon and telling everyone I know! read more

The best burritos in Mass. Service is good and it's a nice and quiet place, nothing too big. When you ask for it Al La plancha they give it to you al La plancha. 10/10 read more

The place looks cool but the food is BLAH sadly. I used to live in San Diego and was super excited to try the Mexican style tacos. The salsa verde was great but the beef seasoning used was not good, the beef tasted boiled. Service was friendly too. I just need more spice to taste, I guess. read more

Burrito had too much butter in it. The person checking us out also couldn't make change for $100 after not being able to calculate the 10% cash discount. Also, I think I picked up my cold there. Won't be going back. read more

Upon arriving to the place I did not intend to eat here but had since it was the only spot close open and when entering I was greeted with kindness and respect and when ordering the quesadilla I saw how the cook had made the steak right in front of me which prove to show not only was my food fresh and made but made with actual meat instead of processed meat or packaged already cooked but he was quick and polite and the dish turned out looking great but when it came to the meal it was delicious to say the least the only fault I would say would be the the cook had but a little to much salt on the steak which gave it a bit of a sour taste but overall the dish was edible and a bit pricey for the size it comes in and also no bags to carry out the food in which was alright but the dish I had to give it a 4 due to it being very filling as well read more

Hungry Coyote - Steak Quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Needham, Massachusetts

Did not answer their phone when I called about receiving the wrong order and if it was the right order omg I hope not. I love chilaquiles, in general ofc and made the right way but I assumed it was the wrong order because it was literally a bunch of soggy nachos with beans. That's why I called to figure it out. I'm Hispanic and grew up in a Hispanic dominated city. I think I know what good Latin food is. But that was mind blowing. The reviews make me laugh because it's like their customers have never stepped out of needham. If you're saying this place has the best of anything, LOL. Get real. read more

Hit or miss. My burrito was a mess. I threw half of it away It's not even close to Anna's Ugh ! read more

They catered Mother's Day for a dozen. The food was excellent and plenty for the group. Just the right amount of preparation, none. And everyone had their own creations, usually with to much on their plate. read more

I came here for a nice Taco Tuesday (well Burrito Tuesday ) lunch. I ordered a small chicken burrito but it was so big I could only have half of lunch and saved the other half for dinner. I was surprised with how well wrapped it was given the size. The burrito tasted great for a verty reasonable price especially considering the size. Inside of the restaurant, there were a nice handful of people eating and relaxing. The overall place seemed laid back as most "made-to-order" quick restaurants are. I would recommend going there for any "Taco" Tuesday read more

We ordered a takeout meal for five people. First of all, it is impossible to order directly from the restaurant. They will not even talk to you. They require you to go through a third-party, which I have discovered is usually a mistake. They left off an item from our order, but the real problem was the food that we did get. It was universally horrible. I have had Mexican food all over the country and in Mexico and this is arguably the worst meal I have ever had. The food was poorly prepared and completely tasteless. My Carnitas were mostly fat. Even the tortilla chips were bad. The salsa was watery and over spiced, but everything else was under seasoned. The only positive thing is that the prices were reasonable, and the portions are large. But we threw most of the food away. read more

I feel sorry writing such a mediocre review for a place I was sure was going to be great. I placed an online order for a chicken burrito and received a very bland and disproportionate burrito. I ordered a chicken burrito and requested an additional scoop of steak, which they charged me extra for. I also got rice, pinto beans, pico, jalapeños, cheese, and guacamole. First off, they completed neglected my request for steak. Second, they added sour cream to my burrito which I did NOT order. While it is inappropriate to skip ingredients that a customer ordered, it is completely unacceptable to give a customer an ingredient that they did not order. This is very hazardous as people may have allergies. Especially with closed foods like burritos. Additionally, my burrito consisted of mostly jalapeños, so all I was tasting was spicy peppers. To top it off (for the meat they did give me) the chicken was dry and bland. I was expecting flavorful and spicy, as most Mexican places ace this. Not here. Not a great way to eat a burrito. I ended up tossing a good third of it out, as it was just jalapeños. I was looking forward to this place, but unfortunately it didn't live up to the high ratings I was seeing before. Many better burrito bars around the Boston area, do yourself a favor and skip this one. read more

Disappointed in all respects. Disorganized, food was just ok. I won't return. Service was deplorable

Hungry Coyote is the best spot for burritos in MASSACHUSETTS period. The two guys working there plus doing the service there are such cool dudes and often give the cooking there the best it can be as with every Taco, Torta, Quesadilla, and Burrito on the damn planet and if you want it a la plancha? They'll GIVE it to you A La plancha and it will TASTE so good. It's a nice small quiet place that's located right next to the Subway, you can't miss it due to the big ol coyote and on the front. read more

Not sure what happened to this shrimp quesadilla. I ordered a delivery of it ($13+) and all I got was a piece of tortilla with about 8 shrimps, some spices and a small amount of cheese (see the screenshot attached). There is no other ingredient ( no vegetables, no tomato etc). It looks miserable for $13+ dollars. Did I misunderstand what I ordered or they forgot to add something? read more

Hungry Coyote - Shrimp Quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Needham, Massachusetts

Service was quick and very friendly staff. The carnitas are bomb! Burritos are stuffed!

Well, I was looking forward to this but left feeling underwhelmed. I ordered the bowl & I did not ask for guacamole as it cost more. The worker by accident put about 1/4 cup of guacamole on my order and then realized the mistake. Instead of giving it to me free of charge, he scooped out the guacamole with his hand and put it in the garage. Just felt really odd to do. And didn't feel like the most sanitary move. After that, he rushed me through my order and I didn't have the chance to add any sauces. He literally boxed my order up and brought it over to the register. Strange experience. Food was average, nothing crazy. Definitely a little bland and dry, especially with no sauces. read more

Hungry Coyote - Bowl - rice, beans, carnitas , lettuce, pico, cheese, onions - Mexican Near Me - Needham, Massachusetts

Absolutely the most terrible quesadilla that I've ever had. Old looking chicken they didn't even melt the cheese just slop it together like some Cafeteria food. Really how do you screw up a quesadilla? Also the place is always dirty. Food looks old and disorganized and the stuff looks like leftovers. Disgusting. Needham deserves a real Taqueria because this place is a joke read more

I had the taco salad, I was amazed that they make the shell fresh as you are standing there, all the ingredients are fresh and they build the salad in front of you. I will definitely eat there again, both my friend and I loved it. read more

This is, quite simply, "the spot." The food is incredible, the guy that runs it is endlessly entertaining and welcoming, there seems to be an unending list of regulars that stop in and catch up with the owner, the portion sizes are enough to save some for the next two meals. This is our second time coming here, our first time was just three days ago. It is just that good. We drove from boston just to get lunch here and we will definitely be doing it many more times. Do yourself a favor, give this place a try. read more

Some have mentioned quality control issues at this restaurant. I had a very frightening experience here and would urge you all to please please avoid this place!! My husband and I ordered two burritos to go and upon biting into my burrito I chomped on something really hard, my husband thought I cracked my tooth! Fortunately I did not but when I spit out it was revealed to be part of a broken blade. It could have been much worse than a broken tooth! We called the restaurant and they tried to blame it on their meat supplier. What the blade looks like is part of a tomato chopper. For your own safety do not eat here! read more

Tried this place today and was very pleasantly surprised by the quality. I got an al pastor burrito--the meat was super flavorful, the pico, guac and other add-ins were also super flavorful and balanced. Service was also fast and friendly. read more

Great food at even better prices, both the burrito and the quesadilla are straight gas. Nothing beats a hungry visit with the boys. Service is excellent, always fast and never too big of a line. read more

I had the carnitas bowl, which was a very tasty, filling lunch. I enjoyed the carnitas, black beans, pico de gallo, plentiful lettuce, cheese, flavor of the hot sauce, fresh cilantro and sour cream. It was good. The downside to me was the lettuce was very wet, which made the rice a soggy mush. It would have been awful in a burrito. The shredded lettuce was soaking in water and needed to be strained better. Also, I decided to dine in rather than get takeout, and the tables and chairs were pretty dirty during peak lunch (12:45pm). Otherwise, this was an enjoyable lunch spot and I'd probably be a regular if I lived or worked in the area. read more

Great food, efficient service. I really wish they'd stop using styrofoam though. I'd go even more often if they had biodegradable containers. read more

I went for lunch with a friend on a weekday - we had a few people in front of us, but it was not super crowded. After reading the reviews on here, I was swayed from a burrito, but opted for the burrito bowl (I think with al pastor??). It was HUGE and I ate the entire thing. It was very flavorful - everything was delicious. It was so filling and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Now I can't decide if I should get the same thing next time, or try something different!! read more

the counter service was great: kind and quick employees. the decor and artwork was fun (the story of the Hungry Coyote god is painted on the wall). but the food... the food was excellent! i tried the burrito and tacos: great flavor, nice salsas, and not overly complicated topping selection. i'd love an even larger size burrito option (i'd pay more , but i got the regular and it was good. i'll definitely be going back. read more

The special burritos are delicious, but pricey at $15. I ordered a cheese quesadilla. It was a flour tortilla steamed with barley melted cheese. It was not griddled/pan seared as every other quesadilla I've ever had has been. Don't know if they forgot or were in a rush or what, but who doesn't grill a quesadilla? I would have given this place more stars, otherwise. read more

The food was great when they first opened, but now it's hit or miss. I ordered a burrito with chorizo, but the chorizo was oddly stringy and didn't taste good. I ended up throwing it away. It seems like they have quality control issues. Chipotle is a better option. read more

Highly recommend Tasty, authentic food served by a friendly and energetic staff. Awesome place to grab lunch or a drink with dinner...or with lunch if that's your thing! I will be eating here every time we visit the island read more

Got the nachos -- wow did not expect that much food. Definitely satisfied the nacho craving and then some. Also got the al pastor, carnitas, and steak tacos--hefty and delicious- especially the al pastor. Run, don't walk! read more

Good for quick fill. A little greasy. But it was tasty. May come back again in the near future

This is a great place for a quick bite. The food is fresh and servers are great. One of the best burritos I have ever had.

There burritos are the perfect size, there food is delicious, the staff are nice, what's not to like about here?

Ordered online for pickup. They gladly took my money and when I showed up the sign said open but the door was locked and no one would answer. They didn't answer the phone either. I am even getting email reminders to pick up but they are refusing to answer the phone or door. Hungry Coyote is a total rip off and I now have to go to my credit card company to reverse the charge. There's no way to cancel online. All this for a burrito? No way. Save yourself the problems and get Ana's Taquaria in Newton. It's only 2 miles away and they don't rip off their customers. read more

We order from this place quite frequently, and it is hands down the BEST Mexican cuisine in the area. Always cooked just right, fresh and full of flavor! Definitely a life long customer- keep doing what you are doing folks- it's delicious!! read more

I would prefer to eat left over Taco Bell. The meat was dry and had little to no seasoning or flavor. The tortillas are also bland and a dry consistency. 3 of the items I tried to order weren't available. Everything we ordered was basically inedible and we threw away 80% of it. I hope someone opens a quality Mexican taco/burrito spot but this ain't it. read more

Very authentic tasting Mexican food. The carnitas were very flavorful. The owner was also a great guy. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also very nice. Probably the best taco I've had in Massachusetts. I would definitely recommend it. read more

I work in Needham and lately I've been noticing a lot of people coming in and out of this place. Today I came here for lunch and I was really surprised when I saw this nice little spot, with nice and friendly staff! Food is fresh, good and generously served. They have a full bar and tables, all very nice and clean. I think this place is specially cool because is a totally new idea when it comes to a place to eat in this area. Most of Needham restaurants are for burger and pizza, the basic American food. I see this as a nice, versatile and fresh new idea. Good spot for lunch or happy hour after getting off the train. read more

$14 for a messy burrito and unclean place (especially the kitchen space). Lettuce was a tub of water with a couple of shredded leaves floating around (of course, I don't want lettuce in my burrito.) Shocked to find such high ratings for this place. :/ read more

Don't walk, RUN to this place! I got to try this place tonight and I'm glad I did. The menu offers tacos, burritos, bowls, salads, quesadillas, fajitas and tamales. Everything was so fresh, well seasoned and the staff are super helpful. Not to mention the music was awesome! Seating is comfortable, big screen TV's, a bar and quick but fresh service. The food was really good...well executed and fair price. I really hope this place survives and they make it. A note to the owners, thank you so much for opening this place and sharing your cuisine with our community. A couple suggestions: have a self service salsa bar, have some more condiments in your ingredients like cabbage, olives, corn, radish, etc. Mexican street corn, churros and kids meals would be nice additions to the menu! Thank you!!! read more
