I don't know why I keep coming back to this place, it's awful. But there's little other option in this place to get Mexican-ish food, short of cooking it yourself. Which I'll probably start doing soon.
Pretty much every time I come in here, I order the same item on the menu, and every time the staff completely mucks it up in some way.
Usually they don't even know it's on the menu despite being written in large letters on the wall directly behind where they stand everyday. Then they pretend not to understand what I'm saying. Then when I point it out, they go "oh ok", and then go into the kitchen for 5 mins. Sometimes they emerge with the right item, sometimes with the wrong item.
There's little to no inspiration in the ingredients or sauces, but at this point I'm ready to compromise for almost anything.
Anyway, this place is mostly a burrito joint for most people, and they do okay in that respect. Better than Chipotle, but that's not difficult. Burritos are great, but they aren't Mexican food. So if you want Mexican food in Cambridge, you're out of luck. If you want anything besides a burrito, you might be better off going behind the counter and making it yourself.
(Which reminds me of the time I was ordering here and some guy walked in off the street and went behind the counter, without changing, and without missing a beat started trying to make my burrito. No hand washing even! Not until I said something. Wonderful...) read more
