Al S

Best Mexican in the area. Prices are very reasonable. Can't go wrong with pollo tacos especiales . Definitely get a horchata too. But be prepared to wait, the place is tiny and there's often a line

Anthony Garrity

Seriously the best. Better than Annas chipotle bolloco. This is real authentic owner operated family place . Trust me it's the best money spent. They're so nice! Foods amazing. Can't go wrong. TRY IT

Curtis C

Favorite Mexican place in the area. The guac is fresh, and the poblano pepper in the plato vegetariano is so good. Cash only , hole in the wall , with great food.

Terence Chan

Delicious hole in the wall spot! Cash only . Got 4 tacos chicken and steak and it was very good quality. Inexpensive too! 4 people ate with 3 drinks for $44!

Natasia Sun

Cash only , not that many tables available, free chips and salsa , flavorful and tender Carne Asada . A Waltham hidden gem !

(Best of Boston 2013-HIDDEN GEM) Improper Bostonian says, "It's exterior is dubiously nondescript, and next door, the divey Hose Trough Tavern is like a guard dog warding off 'fraidy cats."

Jarod Childs

When you see the place tucked away how it is, you know it's good eats.... Affordable too...

Katie Allen

Tacos ! Flan ! Everything! Just beware the red enchiladas are blazingly hot. Very delicious, but on fire!

Pastor tacos , just do it. Great place for take out if you don't want to risk not getting one of the 6 tables.

Anthony Garrity

Better than annas. Great price...chips drink burrito was only 10.54. Cash only . Worth the drive from anywhere IMO.
