    Birria Tacos (3)
    Fernando V.

    I went yesterday with my Austrian friend and she loved the taco birria. I loved too, I'm Mexican and it was a good taco birria

    Chimichanga

    Good presentation, decor and service, mid food. Chimichanga wasn't bad by any means had a good amount of meat, sauce and cheese, just lacked that pop of flavor I look for in Mexican food. Rice was undercooked and crunchy. Appreciated the ample selection of hot sauce.

    Woburn, rejoice! Beyond the global chains, we have lacked that key quick serve location doing Mexican the real way. But our belly-prayers have been answered, Dora Taqueria steps into the space we so desparately needed. A vibrant little space welcomes you, along with the skulls from Día de los Muertos, which actually scared my three year old when we walked in. The worker we had struggled a bit to take our order, she apologized for it being her second day....typical for spots that have just opened. A $40 order later, we had quesadillas, tacos and a torta. Nice touch that they have high chairs available (are these required in restaurants via regulations? I seriously don't know), and the square tops were abundant with wood chairs. The sunlight beams in from Woburn Center so it's nice and bright inside. My favorite was the carnitas torta, a bit spicy and just overflowing with meat, lettuce, tomatoes and the smokiness of the sauce. Some of the areas that could use improvement. One, the size of the horchata is too small for a $4 drink. I hate to compare it to Anna's but there's is almost double the size and even costs less. Plus it was very thin, this could be the style here and I don't blame them for it....but the flavor profile was a bit lacking. Two, the carnitas taco I got had way too much liquid in it, wherever it was coming from, it was definitely ruining the corn tortilla. I don't know if you can drain the meat a bit more or if this is standard but I just wish it wasn't swimming in it. Those issues were very minor, I want everyone going back here again and again to get as much authentic quick Mexican as you can devour. It was busy the few times we have been here with an abundance of takeout going on too. Dora the Taqueria Explorer, I'm so glad you found our little town!

    Quesa birria
    Ryan D.

    Very mid. Quesadilla all cheese barely any meat. Anything birria is more expensive than other meats (understandable I guess) but no caldo (birria broth) provided, it was just dumped on to my order which got soggy really quickly. Not crispy at all. Tacos are not much better. Al pastor - no pineapple. It's telling that we couldn't taste the difference between Al pastor and chorizo. People are nice at least.

    I was hoping they would knock my socks off. Anything but that. 1 taco take out was brought home for me. It definitely looks like it was thrown together. Better yet two tablespoons and put it on a soft taco shell. Portion was small. Not impressed at all. I can't say how it tastes, couldn't eat it. Saving it for my son. I know he will be hungry after he eats it. Presentation is everything. Never going back.

    Really bad Shrimp Burrito - dry, completely no flavor, crunchy rice, and guac was completely flavorless.
    V P.

    Ordered a shrimp burrito with guacamole. I am not sure what happened/if this was an off night (clearly per the many great reviews this place should be amazing!), but the burrito was simply terrible. On top of it being dry with almost no flavor, the rice was crunchy in places and stuck in lumps. The black beans tasted like they had been refrigerated for a few days. The salsa (pico) was just funky. The most impressive to me was that the guac had no taste - no lime, no cilantro, no salt. The shrimp itself was good! Again, I am not sure if this was an off night, or if someone dumped old ingredients on top of the trays and they just happened to make it into my burrito, but it was not good. What bothers me more however is the lack of flavors in everything.

    Burrito bowl with Carnitas with chips, salsa, and guac to go.

    Gotten take out a few times here and its been good. In/out for pick up, happy to have more opens for tacos and burritos in the area.

    Al Pastor Burrito
    Tyler W.

    Food was good, typical burrito shop that if your in the mood for wouldn't disappoint. A+ on the roll, their is nothing more infuriating then a burrito that comes undone as soon as you open it. Flavor wise it's pretty standard I wasn't a fan of the Al pastor bc the pineapples were overwhelming but my taste buds might be different then others. Heping serving of rice which might be nice to get a little more meat but it was busy so I wouldn't take it as the norm.

A lot of places double up on the tortillas for this reason, but no need here. We ordered the birria, carnitas, and cabeza tacos, chicken sopes, beans, rice, sweet plantains, sweet rice pudding and horchata. Standouts were the carnitas and cabeza for me - very delicious in their simplicity, the meat is seasoned and cooked to perfection. Birria was also very good but overhyped IMO (novelty factor). The chicken sopes were way bigger than expected, could easily be a meal on its own and the masa tart was pretty good. Our table liked the green sauce to add zip to the food. It was very sunny when we went, so it was blinding and hot to be sitting inside, hope they install a shade at some point. They seem to only serve in takeout containers, so eating at a table requires getting a bit creative for a "plate" etc. There's a small lot behind the building and street parking is pretty easy. I will definitely be returning to try the lengua and more things next time!

We got the carne asade and chicken taco especial, the hibiscus tea, and churros! The tacos were delish! I usually opt for flour tortillas, however they make their corn tortillas and they are the soft ones, so I wanted to try it as it comes - I was not disappointed! The tacos come in 4 to a meal, so we so split two and two. Naturally, I prefer steak but both the chicken and steak were phenomenal. Lots of flavor!! The taco especial, has onions and cilantro and a nice lime squeeze on the side that is a nice flavor burst and addition. If you want the lettuce, cheese, tomato, etc. then you want the americano version. The tacos come with two sauces, both of which were spicy but you can tell were made/fresh! But that hibiscus tea - wow!! So delish! It was sweet and flavorful and a sip of freshness!! The churros were also incredible. Not that I didn't think I'd like the dulce de leche filling but it was um-yes yum! The outside was nice and crispy obv coated in cinnamon and sugar and then the inside was soft and doughy but not raw dough, just perfection. The dipping sauce was excellent too - they could provide a little bit more of it but we made it work. Anyways, highly recommend. It's fresh and authentic- clearly homemade with good ingredients!! Can't wait to try more from the menu!

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.

I told her yes and then she said I'd have to move down a little back to let the assistant know what I want in my burrito.

The inside of the restaurant feels cold and empty; the chairs are heavy and I can't even imagine when it's snows how cold it is. I decided to not eat there and ordered an uber to my hotel. I felt so unwelcome I ended up eating my burrito by myself in my hotel. The burrito was decent but nothing to write home about.
