Have been many time but this time was very rushed. Courtney our server was not friendly at all and had an attitude right from the start. I have been to many restaurant during covid snd the 90 minute rule but this was the worst. Service was slow once we got our food. And then when we wanted dessert, we were told no our time is up. Courtney needs to be spoken to about her attitude snd how she red presents your restaurant. All others that I’ve met there were wonderful
Will absolutely be coming back!!! Love this spot
Loved this place!! food was definitely on the spicy side which I like. margs were great, service was excellent, vibe/ambience was the best.
Great food and service. Went for happy hour. Shocked with the portions you get for half off apps. So worth it. Some of the best margs we have had. Can’t wait to go back!
Great night and great service
Very good!
Perfect. Great drinks. Great tacos
Service was very good. The heaters didn’t do much for outdoor dining, but they called in advance and warned us about that (which I really appreciated). This is the second time I’ve been there. The meat was very dry on my tacos both times. They do fish tacos very well, though.
Excellent food, great atmosphere. Friendly staff and great service. Can't beat the Birria Tacos and the street corn.
Amazing drinks and such great food — fun for a night out in Boston!!
Outstanding menu! Outdoor seating with heat lamps made for a perfect evening with friends. Highly recommend the guacamole and chips, street corn, barbacoa tacos, and fish of the day tacos. Coconut martini was refreshing too.
I LOOVVEEDD THIS PLACE! Guac was fresh, drinks were delicious, atmosphere was awesome.
The Birria tacos and elope was delicious
Waited over 25 minutes for drinks, 2 appetizers were ordered at different times and came to table prior to arrival of drinks. This deterred us from ordering additional beverages.
Great food and amazing margaritas
Everyone should go here!!
Charged me a no show/cancellation fee yet the restaurant wasn’t even open. Won’t even refund me. Worst experience, would never recommend.
This place is amazing. The Spiced Pineapple Margarita is one of the best drinks I've ever had. Service is quick and friendly, and the tacos and guac are amazing.
Fantastic guac and birri
It was fine. Overpriced for overcooked underflavored beef tacos when there are plenty of other places in Boston for the same price that are way better. The fish taco was very good though. The spicy margarita actually has some kick to it which was nice, but overall the meal was mediocre at best.
The food was just ok, for a taqueria we were expecting it to be amazing. Unfortunately the food was mediocre, the drinks were really good I must say. Even with one bartender on a Saturday night and a little bit of a wait the drinks were the highlight.
Yellow door kills it every time thank you ♥️
Delicious tacos and yummy drinks. Also very cool ambiance.
Great spot for drinks and friends
Always the best! Great food, drinks, & atmosphere!
The wait staff were all so kind- we were celebrating two of our friends birthdays and I put that in the notes of the reservation and they saw that and without me even asking they brought over shots WITH sparklers!!! It was so fun and so appreciated, and everyone loved their food:) oh also their bathrooms are really cool so if ur a person that likes places with cool bathrooms, this is the place for you
Disregard any negative reviews about this food. The tacos here are some of the best you will find in the area, they’re off the charts. Food comes first in a restaurant everything else is secondary. Pretty cool spot tequila selection is decent and cocktail my girlfriend got was well crafted. Being someone who loves Mexican authentic or not and someone who works in a fine dining steakhouse I give this place a thumbs up. Also ppl complaining about the 90 min restriction get over it, shut up for a second and eat your dinner. Thank you.
Great food, service and vibe! A fun, cool atmosphere!
The mole tamale was cold and not tasty. Some of the soft tacos were hard and stale on around the ends. The fish taco was so good with two fish nuggets that we ordered another. We only had fried batter and no fish in the second order. Also the food wasn't seasoned enough, it was bland. The duck taco was cold and tasteless. The whitefish tequilas were the best out of everything. The drinks were also good. The waitress never asked us how was our food. The table was too small and we were small to medium sized people. There wasn't enough space on the table for our food. It was packed in the restaurant and although they had partitions face level to separate the tables, the seats were so close on the benches that another person's coat was on my bench side and touching me. Because we are in a Covid pandemic, I didn't feel safe at this establishment. And parking was extremely difficult to find. After waiing in a long line to park behind the building, we only discovered that it was ONLY parking for Whole foods. We will never eat here again. We love the eatery in Dorchester where it is smaller, but the food is more authentic and seasoned. The staff is super hospitable and the drinks rock!!!
Drinks were amazing, service ok. We’re asked to leave after 90 mins and there were available reservations online for as soon as we were done. So we could of booked a reservation and come right back in. We’re declined to sit at the bar. Food was dry.
Would go back for drinks and an appetizer but not main meal.
The food was horrible. Some drinks just tasted like sour mix. Very embarrassing to bring friends here. Will never go again- restaurant is so hyped up for nothing. Recommend the Dorchester location if anything.
Being a native Californian I was very very impressed with the taste and Quailty of food here...my must stop at when I am in Boston!
Food wasn’t that good but the drinks were amazing!!!
Perfect dinner, kitchen was spot on & cocktails and service were fabulous. Thanks for another fantastic meal!
A fun and eclectic selection of drinks and tacos. Something for everyone.
The scallop tacos are my favorite tacos in Boston! Drinks are very good bu strong
I had the best date of my life with Kenzie Labadie
Food and service were top notch. Definitely recommend the margaritas!
The food was a bit mediocre than I remember it being however full disclosure this was my first time at this location. I think it was because their was almost too much meat (duck & chicken tinga tacos) that took away from the other flavors. I would return for guac portion and drinks.
It’s was my girlfriends birthday, and we had the best time!! They brought her out dessert for her birthday and our food was INCREDIBLE. THANK YOU!!
