    Birria lovers listen up. I stopped by Amelia's Taqueria at Assembly and it absolutely delivered. The birria tacos were so good, packed with flavor and perfectly cooked meat that really stands out. The level of customization here is impressive and makes it easy to get exactly what you're craving. I'm already planning my next visit because I definitely need that birria in burrito form. And the cheesecake burrito deserve their own moment. Truly a genius invention and something I'll be thinking about until the next time I'm back for another bite. Overall this is a solid to go spot that hits the mark. 8 out of 10.

    Got the nacho bowl but it came out a little more than I thought it would for around $17 but maybe be because I added plantains so make sure to put attention. The bowl mixed with everything was decent but the sauces were not spicy at all. The meat ratio wasn't what I wanted for $17, I feel like I can get much better portion and taste elsewhere. There is free water cups but there were a lot of times when the staff wasn't paying attention when we tried to go up the counter when asking questions and it was quite cold in there.

    Amelia's is my top pick for a flavorful Mexican bowl. The other places that are this style of tex mex are bland compared to Amelia's. The food was fresh and hot and had good amount of options for toppings and drink selections too ! I recommend!

    This place is alright. I got the nachos and they give you a huge huge huge pile of chips and they pile on the toppings on top. It is a huge portion but majority of it is chips and halfway through we ran out of toppings and were left with a huge basket of chips. Service is good and they have lots of seating.

    Im having a taco with $2 chives. I guess nothing is free here. Who did my order is the girl with curly hair.

    Tiny portions with big price tag. I rather take the long trip to Felipes ... But the place was clean.

    We came around 6pm on a weekday and it was completely empty…read more We came here because we saw tik tok videos of how fun, busy, and vibrant this place was but I think we just came at the wrong time and wrong day. The business is sort of in a house? It was small and kind of dark inside. It was definitely an interesting experience,,, The appetizer was reallyyy good, I forgot the name though... The mole however, was not very good. The mole was liquidy and the chicken was dry. Overall, I think this place is more for fun busy nights where you just drink and apps. I'd like to come again when its busier and we aren't the only customers.

    Tulum is an elevated Mexican restaurant an extensive food and drink menu (especially tequila) too…read more It's in kind of a weird neighborhood of Somerville that's hard to get to without a car but lots of parking. We started off with two drinks- a frozen mangonada and this passion fruit drink. They were both solid but I liked the mangonada better because the passion fruit cocktail had too much pulp in it! For food, we started off with chips and guac. This guac was some of the best I've had. It was super fresh and you could tell exactly what ingredients they used. We also their pork ribs! The ribs fell off the bone and I loved the warm sauce except it was a tiny bit dry. The sauce was reminiscent of an umami bbq sauce. We decided to try their zucchini dish, as recommended by the manager! I don't love zucchini usually but I liked it. It was roasted with cheese, sauces, and some shrimp. Very creative, Lastly we got the tuna ceviche of the day. I didn't really like this because it was really heavy on the dill. I think it would've been good without it. However the presentation was gorgeous and it came with plantains. Overall the vibes are superb here for a date, girls night, or whatever!!

    Late night stopped in for a friend's bday meal! Ended up at La posada! I must say the gentleman…read morethat was working the bar also served our table was super chill and he communicates well. We ordered the following: - fish tacos (3) - flavor wise this fell flat for me. No punch of seasoning to the fish personally. - Birria tacos combo - fire combo. I just love birria style tacos. Highlight for me hot and well cooked beef, tender. - Birria chimichanga (2) this is hefty, i thought this was a good chimichanga, i would probably ask for extra sauce next go around, it got a bit dry without it. - carne asada enchiladas, the lady enjoyed this, carne was moist and tender. - pork belly & yuca loved the pork belly originally thought it was more like a chicharron dish but enjoyed this style , the yuca wasn't my jam. - tajin elote (2) love tajin elotes so no complaints! - churro espresso Great spot, great service.

    We were looking for a late night snack and ended up at La Posada Restaurant in Somerville!…read more They have delicious food & amazing service, we really had no complaints. This is what we ordered when we visited: - fish tacos (3) - Birria tacos combo - Birria chimichanga (2) - carne asada enchiladas - pork belly & yuca - tajin elote (2) - churro espresso martini Everything was very good! I would probably skip on the fish tacos next time just because it wasn't really my thing but everything else was tasty. The Birria tacos and Birria chimichanga were out of this world... my favorites out of everything we ordered. Very flavorful and generous portion sizes. Honestly we ordered way more than we could eat lol but they made for the best leftovers the next day. We were able to walk-in without reservations for a table of 3 & service is very quick and efficient!! Food came quick and pipin' hot! Would definitely come back again & I highly recommend.

The taco was tasty, I wish it was thrown on the griddle with the tortilla, still slapped though Very nice folks here, the kind of energy in here will bring you back for at least another 3/4 tacos or burritos

    Needed a quick, late-night spot to grab some food. I had found this place in instagram and was…read moreintrigued by a fast-food spot advertising pupusas. Plus they had other options, including tostadas, bowls, tamales, burritos, you name it. When we arrived, there were people inside eating. We stopped to look at the menu before ordering, and were greeted by a very friendly man who made the experience more enjoyable. I ordered a tostada with steak, onions, cilantro, a little sour cream, green verde sauce, lettuce, and refried beans. It was my first time trying one so so was really excited. I also ordered two cheese pupusas, which I ended up taking to go with me. My boyfriend ordered a bowl with chicken and various toppings. My tostada was delicious. The crunchy tortilla paired with fresh steak and all the juices from the onion and cilantro paired so nicely together. The ingredients seemed very fresh. We were gonna take this to go, but we decided to dine in. The same gentleman ended up checking in on us half way through the meal to see how we were doing. I thought this was really nice. His name is Chef Noe and he was telling us that he is the head chef for this restaurant. He was glad we enjoyed our meal and it was a pleasure talking to him. Overall I think the spot is well placed as it is right near Leslie university in Harvard so I think it's a good spot for students to come or if you're local like us. It's quick but it has quality. Its fast food but it's fresh. That's what I liked about it. It's all prepared in house and the flavors are great. The decor is also cute inside, very colorful and I thought it was creative that they up-cycled Jarittos bottles into flower vases. Definitely check out the spot when you're in Cambridge and you won't be disappointed.

    Ordered the beef torta this evening and immediately went on to Yelp and got FOMO that I didn't…read moreorder the tacos which all look amazing. I really need to remember to look online before choosing my order in the future (or so I thought). While the tacos still look incredible (especially the birria ones), the torta was surprisingly great as well. The sandwich is jam packed with ingredients and really well balanced. The beef was juicy and tender, and the veggies added a really nice balance of spice (jalapenos), freshness (onions, lettuce, and tomatoes), and richness (cheese and avocadoes). The refried beans were a pleasant surprise as well, adding really good moisture and flavor to the overall bite. And including avocado on the torta for no extra cost really is what put this above and beyond to a 5/5 - the avocado was ripe and had just the right amount of it to add that rich and fatty element without being too slippery and making it hard to eat. The fries, on the other hand, were a bit soggy and thick for my liking. I had seen another photo on Yelp where they looked a lot crispier and were shaped differently, so not sure if I just got unlucky, but the sandwich more than made up for the fries in this case. I really can't say enough positive things about the torta. And even though the torta was fantastic and I gave it a 5/5, I definitely want to come back for those tacos. Three tacos plus rice for $18 is a pretty great deal, and the tacos really look incredible. My partner ordered a tongue, al pastor, and fish taco and while I didn't try them, they looked and smelled incredible. We will definitely be back!

    Delicious carne asada and al pastor tacos. Service was very good, I will definitely be back again.read more
