Yesterday, I ordered from this location. Full disclosure, I'm currently a veteran inpatient at the VA Hospital. I heard good things about this place foodwise. I used Square Up since it said it was preferred by the business. I will never again use this service. My delivery driver, Humberto, did not follow directions. He texted me and stated he was at reception. A picture is worth a thousand words. This clearly was not delivered to the main reception area. My food was left somewhere in the hospital. Now. I did contact the restaurant, and they stated they would refund me. I'll have to wait and see. Apparently, it can take a minimum of 7 business days. In the future, I will go in person or use Grubhub or a more customer friendly service. Do not use Square Up. UPDATE: FOOD LOCATED! First things first. Contacted restaurant to let them know food located. They were very gracious. Secondly, the food was lukewarm at this point. I was still hungry, so I tried it. Oh. My. Goodness. The Carnitas Tostados were Bomb! Loaded with tender pork and fresh fixings. I also added jalapeños and pickled onions. I ordered a Chicken Plate as well. That was fire, too! The chicken is expertly grilled and flavorful, Pico, guacamole, and refried bean, it was just bursting with flavor. I repeat. This food was LUKEWARM but still tasty! I will definitely try them in the near future in person and, if delivery, will use a more well-known delivery app. read more

Really yummy breakfast burritos! We got one vegetarian and one chorizo. Very nice interior and friendly workers.

Friend recommended this place so I don't know if today was an off day - especially given the favorable reviews from other yelpers. I generally like to get carne asada meals to get a feel for a Mexican place. If you cannot master this classic, then I tend to be skeptical re the rest. Overall, very bland carne asada tacos. Meat itself had little flavor and the texture wasn't great (felt like I was eating day old carne asada - although my mom's day old carne asada is still bomb). The green salsa that accompanied it was pretty bland. It was a combo order with beans and rice. The beans were fine. Not bad, not great. The rice was very dry. I'm willing to try another item next time I'm in the area given the net positive reviews, but I was not impressed. read more

Utterly top notch. Friendly service, delicious, excellent and fresh food. Wish we lived closer!

This place is a hidden gem! The breakfast burritos are some of the best we've ever had. We have ordered multiple times and they have never missed. Great service and great value for what you get. Highly recommend. read more

The best Mexican food South of Boston ! As one who grew up out West near the Mexican border, I miss quality authentic Mexican food. This restaurant meets that need. The main courses are made to order. My son likes a couple of changes, and they freely take requests. No sauces for a bottle, theirs are made in house ! If you enjoy natural soda with real sugar rather than corn syrup, this restaurant carries Mexican Coke and Mexican Jarritos Natural Flavor sodas. For dessert, there is a wonderful flan. Get it fast. It may sell out as the day progresses. Parking is on the street; however, the food is well worth one's effort to find a space. If you are ever in the area of the Arboretum or Faulkner Hospital, you should stop by. We will be returning ! read more

Honesty, this is the worst Mexican food I've ever eaten and I've eaten at Casa Bonita in Denver, CO which is known for its terrible food. I ordered the chicken enchiladas. They consisted of soggy corn tortillas wrapped around cubes of plain chicken breast and then topped with what tasted like canned sauce and some bagged shredded cheddar cheese. There was literally nothing besides cubed chicken in my enchilada. The beans were watery and bland and the rice looked like plain white rice. We also ordered chips with guacamole and queso. The queso was nacho cheese sauce from a can and the guacamole was also clearly from a package. The chips themselves were the best part of the meal. My husband ordered a chicken burrito which was essentially all the same stuff I had but wrapped in a flour tortilla. It was all bland. I don't know how this place got 4 stars on yelp. If you want some Mexican Coca Cola or Jarrito's sodas and chips, it's a great spot. Otherwise, I would rather eat Taco Bell. read more

Best breakfast burrito in Boston. They don't advertise it either. Perfect proportion of egg, meat, cheese, and hashbrown... and they put avocado in it and don't up-charge. You can order it with any meat, but the carne asada and chorizo are incredible. Both their chorizo and fish tacos are also amazing and are a great price. read more

Great authentic Mexican food. The staff and owner are really nice and work quickly to get you your food. The place is always super clean and is great for both eating there or for takeout. They have Mexican Coca Cola! They also have Jarritos - pretty much all the flavors. Don't pass on the home made chips - with salsa, guac, or queso! read more

Local family fave. Unique style and flavors that are off the very beaten Mexican cuisine path. Excellent, friendly service from family-run business. Laid back atmosphere for sitting down and crushing a yummy burrito. read more

I'd say be careful what you order. On the plus side, the 3 varieties of tacos we tried were quite good, as were the tortillas, housemade chips, and guac. But my pork plate (advertised as 'cochinita', which for the record is not the marinated pibil you might think of, and was also neither shredded as advertised nor with much of any flavor) came with totally plain rice and bland black beans, a touch of pico drowning in some liquid salsa, and some shreds of lettuce. Just a sad dish all around. Maybe it was a totally off day and I'm willing to try them again to confirm, but I think I need to be the dissenter here and say I prefer Chilacates- their rice and their beans always have tons of flavor (as do all of their proteins), their plates are always very fresh and balanced, and they're really consistent and reliable. I was stoked especially to have a place nearby who served cochinita pibil, but I guess I'll need to keep looking... read more

Chorizo, Mama's recipe beef, Carnitas and carne asada tacos. Phenomenal. Carnitas are uniquely their own. Carne asada was the surprise. Peppery and, most importantly, not dry crumble tough steak. Great great chorizo. Mama's recipe beef was made with real chunks not crumble beef. Will come back. And like $2.75 a taco for the most part read more

This place doesn't look like much on the outside, but the authentic mexican food sign on the outside drew me in and it did not disappoint! The food is soo good and it is inexpensive. The staff is so nice and the menu has a large selection of different meats that they can prepare several ways. I love the tacos! Run, don't walk for the al pastor tacos - the pineapple really ties everything together. Will definitely be back for more! read more

Yucatán Tacos is a small gem tucked into a corner of Roslindale. Family run, it serves great burritos, tacos, and other Mexican dishes. The service is always friendly, the food great and fresh, the tastes perfect. Avoid the chain joints and enjoy the real thing, made, as they proclaim by "real Mexicans." read more

This place is great! It is a family run authentic place focused on the freshest of ingredients. With the first bite you know that whatever you've had previously doesn't compare. I love the shrimp tacos and my husband loves the steak burrito. We've been to other places but, I take Yucatán over these as the food is far superior! I just finished my tacos now but already thinking about the next time, YUM! read more

The food is so bland. The salsa is canned garbage. It's just not good.wont get food from here again

I was drawn to Yucatan Tacos the other day. Ordered a beef burrito plate. The food was oh so delicious. Freshly made and truly authentic. This location has the BEST MEXICAN FOOD around. Try it you'll LOVE it. Will DEFINITELY be going back to this restaurant. read more

Great take out, fast and fresh like it was made to order. Burritos and tacos are the best. Keep up the good work guys. Kevin Kelly read more

Tried Yucatan for the first time and wow they were amazing. The food is delicious, and the prices are even better! It's a very traditional Mexican restaurant. The menu has a nice selection to choose from, the portions are very large! Plenty of parking and several outdoor tables. Covid-safe! read more

Great food and staff. They offer breakfast Thursday - Saturday now and we have hit it a few times. Breakfast burrito is so good.

This IS NOT a good restaurant if you have ever eaten Mexican food before. You might as well go to the super market and buy anything labeled Mexican food and you will have a better meal. read more

Awesome! Not overpriced and they never mess up a special order. Mexican food made by Mexicans...and it's oh so good read more

I love this place. We have been ordering takeout from them for years. Not one error...ever. The food is excellent the guacamole is homemade and really good. Can't say enough good about it. read more

Solid chorizo burrito and nachos. A lot of rice in the buritto, and a good amount of meat, not too many beans. The nachos came with refried beans, cheese, salsa, sour cream, the jalapenos were all piled up in the corner, in case you're sharing them with someone who doesn't like their food too spicy. The prices on the website are a little outdated. The nachos were $6.49, and the buritto was $8.99. Overall worth checking out. Maybe next time I'll try the quesadillas. read more

I ordered the pork burrito. It was so bland. I ordered "everything on it" and I regretted ordering in the first place because it had no flavor, nothing special at al. I don't think they have many options, or if they do, they didn't hook me up. l. I think there is better out there. read more

Solid place and affordable! I ordered the shrimp tacos and they were very well prepared. The toppings station with salsa verde and other sauces had run out of some things which was a bummer. The staff here are very friendly and the environment is relaxed and welcoming. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious. Best nachos and best guacamole ever! Super delicious fish and shrimp tacos!

Yucatán is by far my favorite burrito spot. I usually get a shrimp burrito (which is wrapped in a flour tortilla with rice, beans, cheese, and salsa), and chips and guacamole. The guacamole and the burrito are both absolutely delicious! I usually add some guacamole to my burrito along with some hot sauce from the restaurant. The ingredients are fresh, and it's authentic Mexican food. It can't get much better than that! read more

I had the carne asada burrito with beans no rice and guacamole. The meat was tasty, the guacamole was fresh the burrito good. The salsa was tasty. Being from East Los Angeles I give this burrito a 4 only cause it had yellow chedder cheese. read more

Yucatan Tacos..."Mexican Food Made By Mexicans" as others have pointed out is their slogan. And indeed, this place is VERY Mexican, not only the employees as noted, but also from the interior decor, to the furnishings, to the sombreros hanging on the wall, to the TV prominently showing the scantily clad Mexican Pop stars dancing...well you get the idea. This place is indeed authentic Mexican, much more so than other places like this in the area (Wapo Taco). Anyways, onto the food, they have a good amount of choices, with the obvious fare such as tacos, burritos, quesadillas along with some authentic Mexican dinners such as chimichangas, enchilada plates, and fajitas. One of my favorite things on the appetizer menu is the Queso Asado. It's a pork/cheese/onion/peppers dip topped with sour cream that is AMAZING. Pair this with your favorite burrito and taco, and you are SET. They also have authentic Mexican sodas as well. Not my thing, but helps with the authentic thing.. Prices are fairly cheap, $5 for the chicken quesadilla that is definitely enough for one hungry single person. Split an appetizer with someone, and you are FULL for under 10 bucks. Definitely worth it. Yucatan is a great place for Mexican food in an area that doesn't HAVE lots of Mexican (authentic) places, and also is a great place for awesome food for a great price. If you haven't been here yet for lunch, I'd definitely recommend you try this little hidden gem on Centre Street in Roslindale. read more

I love Mexican Food and I've been stopping here regularly for about 8 years or so. Service is always consistent and fast. It's not a very spacious restaurant but it's well-decorated and has a nice feel about the place. The people behind the register are quiet and don't seem to give off the most inviting vibe, but as a regular patron, I can tell you that nobody is unfriendly...they are simply just quiet folks. And they will always get your order right. You order at the front register, but then take your seat and they will deliver your meal to you. Their menu is standard Mexican with a lot of choices. I religiously order the Queso Asado for a starter and a chicken burrito with no beans. As I mentioned, after 8 years of coming here, I've always received consistent service and I've never been disappointed. read more

*Mexican Food Made my Mexican* is what the sign reads. Totally delicious burritos. Tops Anna's any day, and is probably my favorite Burrito of all time. I can't give a full 5 stars because: A. I have never eaten anything else there B. They close WAY to early... 9 on weekdays. C. Their pico is only so-so. read more

This has been a great find for lunch. Been there twice and have tried two different burritos, beef "mama's recipe" very good . Rice and beans is fresh and flavorful with ground beef. New favorite is the chorizo burrito. Same rice and beans but the flavor of the chorizo spices kick it up a notch. Can't beat the prices anywhere. Great find on Centre st W.Roxbury read more

First off: no greeting when we walked in by the two guys working there. Second: there was no aroma of food or any presentation of it. So you order without even seeing what anything looks like. Most authentic restaurants like this have the food out in the hot containers where you can see the different items such as the rice, beans, cheeses, and so fort. Even when we ordered all the food is being taken from containers that are kind of hidden. It wasn't from the hot station that's directly next to the register. Third: the food was ok, not good, but not disgusting. I ordered the chicken quesadillas. There was no flare to it, it's not authentic at all. The chicken was thickly cut into PERFECT cubes, and not cooked on the grill . Very flavorless . My husband got one of the chicken plates and the rice was literally white rice cook with a little softito. So the rice took the color of that tomato sauce, light light red/orange ,but it was a little undercook and had very LITTLE flavor. And the beans were definitely from the can. There we very firm. Anyone should be able to tell the difference from beans cooked in a pot on the stove vs beans poured out of a can . So we will not be back , I've had Los Amigos down the street and let me tell you, THATS AUTHENTIC! Everything is sooo well flavored and the people who work there are very pleasant. So do yourself the favor and skip Yucatan tacos! read more

Heard that this place was good and since we just moved to this part of Boston, decided to check it out. The atmosphere is very relaxed and authentic Mexican. The owners son was behind the counter and very helpful. I ordered the taco plate with chicken and carnitas. They were out of this world good. The homemade Pico, haberno salsa, and avocado sauce were available at their help yourself salad bar. They were so good you could eat them solo. My girlfriend ordered the taco salad with black bean and chicken. She loved it. By far and away the best place for Mexican in the Boston area. We have been everywhere and nothing touches it. The service is great and food out of this world. I highly recommend this place! read more

Great place: authentic Mexican, very clean setting, easy parking. I highly recommend the carne asada as well as the shrimp tacos.

Show up hungry! The food at this place never disappoints, and the service from the owner Jose on down the line is top notch. I live in Chicago area but visit the area regularly and always look forward to an enjoyable meal at Yucatan Tacos. I've tried several items, burritos are my favorite. Enjoy! read more
