    Try one if you're lucky enough to live in the Somerville area. $3 buys you frosty yumminess.

    On the Macy's side of Summer Street, I spied a new (to me) food cart with the word "AREPA"…read moreemblazoned on all sides situated across from the Summer Street entrance to the Downtown Crossing T stop. Curious about their "sweet corn patties with mozzarella cheese" which were grilled on site (but seemingly bought packaged), I stopped despite the fact that I had recently consumed my lunch. For $4, I received a 'sandwich' wrapped in foil with a paper napkin cushioning my hand against the heat of the contents. It was about 4 inches in diameter, and fully heated through. It was reminiscient of a corny grilled cheese or a corny sauceless pizza. Since, hobbit-like, it was my 2nd mid-day meal, I couldn't believe I ate the whole thing, but then I figured it wouldn't reheat in a microwave all that well... It was a nice snack, but it is priced a little high to make it as a regular snack destination for me... more like a special sometime treat. PS - it is noted on the cart that the arepas are Gluten-Free.

    Just to start, the arepas I got here was disgusting. I'm not a picky eater and I was very hungry at…read morethe time, but it was so obviously expired that I physically couldn't eat it. The cheese must have been sitting out for a few days because it was so dry it wouldn't melt. Also the vendor was a huge dick to me. Got mad about me paying by card for a $6 order (that I'm 90% sure was advertised as $5) and mansplained credit card transactions to me. I was so jarred that I asked for my card back but he insisted on completing the transaction while complaining about cars payments the entire time. Do NOT eat here. You will regret it. If curious, this was the cart across from Boston Public Library.

    This is a small fast casual Mexican chain right by Peters Park. It was good, but not memorable…read moreconsidering all the Mexican taquerias around the city. The first time I went was to the Mission Hill location, which was quite satisfying in terms of the food quality. I've been to this South End location a handful of times over the years just because of it's proximity to me, but the lack of customization with up charges for everything is a turn off. Also the last time I went, I wanted to have two proteins (half and half) and was charged for double proteins. My most recent order was the plate with pork en chile verde and al pastor. The chile verde pork was moist and flavorful, but the al pastor was very dry, tough, and there was no pineapple to be found. The portion sizes itself were decent, but compared to other nearby casual Mexican places, it doesn't hold up. However, I do appreciate how they serve the plate so you can taste each individual component without everything mixed together. You also have to ask for their hot sauce/salsa, they have a red and a green one. The green one is much better, but the red one does have a nice kick to it.

    This spot??? Absolutely Clutch... They are open late and have all the eats…read more.. I only experienced them through DoorDash since i was in a hotel but each time my food was fresh and absolutely delish. I ordered from there twice and had the Horchata, Elote, Burris Burrito, Madurai, & Grilled Chicken Burrito. Whew... each item was a home run and im thinking about going back to Boston to have this food again. They even called me to clarify my order since they were about to close and didn't want to make any mistakes. From what i can tell most people don't dine in, that this is more of a good food fast type of place. But i would definitely like to sit in and eat the food fresh.

    Stopped by to check out BBQsmith this week since I have been waiting patiently for them to open…read more They've got a pretty good menu including tacos and sandwiches with smoked meats, and some BBQ sides like greens and beans. I ordered the pulled pork taco with a side of garlic braised kale. The taco was a decent size and well put together. The meat was tender and delicious. At $3 it was a little pricey for 1 taco, but given the tasiness I'll gladly be back to try another. The garlic braised kale was served cold with a small amount of carmelized onions on top giving a nice somewhat sweet flavor to balance out the bite of the kale and garlic. It was a good size for $2. They also offered some lemonade and half iced tea/half lemonade which I didn't try this time but will. The staff was friendly and when I asked for a suggestion she was happy to help and answer questions. I'll be back to try more options.

    I came here with some coworkers during the lunch hour rush in the Financial District. Since I'd…read moretried Clover and BonMe on other occasions, I decided to give BBQsmith a shot. I overheard a guy talking about how the Slawich is really damn good. Fortunately for me, he knew what he was talking about. It was really damn good. The bun was soft with a slight crunch on the outside. It's medium sized but the BBQ pork, slaw and garlic pickles were overflowing. The slightly sour slaw coupled with the sweet BBQ sauce makes a perfect combination. I know many people hate the fatty portions of the pork, but I think the sweet softness makes it the best part. The garlic pickles didn't have much garlic taste. I would have preferred regular pickles. It's a $6 slawich so I'd say that's normal price for a food truck sandwich.
