    Tacos: Chorizo w/ melted cheese, steak w/ melted cheese, carnitas & chorizo (left to right)

    Don't miss this incredible taco place! They stack the meat and toppings high! Ordered the Tacos Asada Con Queso, Taco Campechano, and Taco Choriqueso. Food arrived fast and fresh. Tacos come with salsa verde and I recommend also asking for the hot red sauce. Def a repeat.

    Solid 4 stars from me. Food was really good. Service was quick. The inside is nothing special - but a few tables to eat at. Would return when/if in the area.

    Mmm mm mm the flavors are melting on my tongue!! Look at how gorgeous these tacos are !! Beautifully stuffed and garnished! Taco Asada 8/10 : Super flavorful and a tender, just needed a little more cream bc it was a little dry. Taco Pollo 9/10 : So so so so juicy! Nicely marinated and I loved the seasonings! A little hot but not spicy at all and it's a nice kick of flavor. Tacos Carnitas 10/10 : I loveee carnitas! Juicy and flavorful! The meat is tender and melts in your mouth! Torta Carnitas 8/10 : Could use a little more meat and a little more cheese, but overall the flavor was great and the bread is nice and toasted. Overall, I need more of that green crema! It was sooo good I could drink it on its own! I love these tacos and you can order each of them individually so if you just want a little snack you can order only 1 taco!

    We came here on a Sunday night after our absolute favorite Taqueria was closed. We walked right in at about 630. It looked like it was a little chilly in there, but it was very inviting food wise. The staff was very nice, smiled attentively and let us place our order. It came up very quickly and we were sitting at a table by the window. The food was OK. I've actually had better tacos, but these were definitely a good second to our absolute favorite. The only thing I found? All of our tacos were room temperature or a little bit warmer at best. Nothing was hot hot. I like hot hot. But the flavor on each one was pretty good. I probably won't get the chicken won again. That was very basic. The carnitas and chiccharon ones were stellar. But we will definitely be back.

    Taco Campechano - taco with chorizo and carnitas

    Last 5 times I've been have been just out of the park. I've been a tough critic of Tenoch for years because some days are better than others. Sometimes you'll get a brisket taco and you'll feel like that the brisket was from the night before because it's kind of tough. However, 9 out of 10 times this place is rock your socks off. Just look at this pic, just perfection. Mind you....this is taco number two....it was so good I went back in and got another lol. Taco Campechano - chorizo and carnitas...out of this world.

    I actually got this for lunch at the food truck at the Science Center at Harvard. Two tacos alone are satisfying. Each tortilla is filled to the max with meat and toppings. It hit the spot with the lime. I love their salsas. Highly recommend! Try the tortas too. I don't have a picture, but the adovada one was great!

    I could eat at Tenoch for breakfast lunch and dinner. It's a small taco spot with some of the most authentic tacos in the area. More of a grab and go spot, you order at the counter and get your food immediately. The carne asada tacos and campechano tacos are my absolute fav!

    Amazing tacos!

    I decided to come here after reading the reviews on Yelp. This was the best authentic Mexican restaurant I have been to in my 25+ years in Boston. I HIGHLY recommend it! I got two tacos- taco pollo and taco asada con queso. They were excellent!

    10 out of 10 check them out... Hit up this place for a late night dinner on a visit to Boston. Extensive menu everything made it to order while you wait. We ordered tacos but lots of folks were coming in ordering tortas Both indoor and outdoor seating are available service was fast and friendly and looking forward to going back in exploring more menu options

    Tortas

    These were TORTAlly delicious!!! Here are some absolutely loaded tortas from Tenoch that packed a punch! They all tasted so good that my friend and I went back the next day for another round! Lots of different options to go with and you cannot go wrong with any of them! What would you want in your torta?

    Which menu items are gluten free? Are the taco shells 100% corn?

    Salad is probably only thing besides chips and quac.

You can feel the pride they take in their food and hospitality from the moment you walk through the door. We stopped in on Taco Tuesday, where most tacos are 20% off. The only exception was the birria tacos--which, of course, happened to be exactly what we wanted. After taking the first bite, we couldn't have cared less that they weren't included in the special. They were absolutely worth every penny. The birria tacos were incredible--loaded with tender, juicy meat, plenty of melted cheese, and packed with rich, authentic flavor in every bite. They were perfectly prepared and easily some of the best birria tacos we've had. If you're looking to support a fantastic local business while enjoying amazing Mexican food, Caliente Mexican Grill should absolutely be on your list. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of the menu, but those birria tacos will be hard to pass up. Highly recommended!

I went with the birria tacos and was not disappointed! 3 for $15 and came with a side of Mexican rice, some sliced radish and lime wedges. The beef stew to dip the tacos in was tasty and rich. Tacos came with shredded beef and perfectly melted cheese, slammed together with a crispy outer shell and softer inner taco. Yum!

It was super crowded even though it was cold weekday night, and we ordered beef tongue burrito and mushroom quesadillas that night and they were delicious. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Then we ordered delivery since we really wanted to try their pupusas and other menus. Steak burrito: I think I prefer beef tongue one better, I could taste some rubbery texture on the meat with steak one. Birria tacos: good flavor, I think I wanna try fish next time. Vegetable quesadillas: The cheese in this thing is awesome. Churros: Nicely fried, good touch on stuffed condensed milk! Tres Leches: Perfectly moist tres leches, we're getting that again. Platanos Fritos: Plantains were good, but I think I prefer crunchier bites. Cheese / Zucchini / Chicken pupusas: you must get cheese, other ones were okay. It was also great that burrito/quesadillas came with chips + salsa! I think this would be our Mexican place to order on from now on, great addition to the neighborhood!
