The best taco is always from the food truck! We walked by this taco truck and decided to try it, and it did not fail us! I love the sauce coming with the chorizo taco, nicely blended with the onion and cilantro. Great snack for the day! read more

Naco Taco on Newbury - Chorizo taco - Tacos Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The food is average at best. Soggy crispy tacos wasn't doing it for me. I know Mexican food being from LA but it's pricey for what it is. When I asked for an extra side of salsa they said it would cost 3.50 per salsa. Have you ever heard something like this at a real Mexican restaurant. Highway robbery. Avoid. Many better places on Mass ave. read more

Love Naco Taco. Perfect location right outside Hynes station on Newbury Street. I decided to get the taco combo (2 tacos & 1 side) with pulled pork and shrimp tacos with a side of corn. The sauce on the corn is delicious. The pulled pork has chipotle aioli sauce, which makes it a little spicy, but the radish on top cools it down a little. The shrimp fills the little taco shell and it crispy and tasty. I'd definitely recommend this if you're in the area often, since they're open everyday from 11-8PM. P.S. The torta here is cheaper than at their storefront location on Mass Ave. read more

A-OK is a pretty good summation of my experience here. Wasn't too hungry, so a single taco was perfect for me. I opted for the "cochinita pibil" (pulled pork is the primary protein). The protein is something they definitely got right. Not only was the pork tender, flavorful (without being overloaded with sauce) but the quantity was on point too. They certainly do not skimp on the amount of meat they put in there, but at the same time it is not an unwieldy mountain for food meant to be held. Like a great burger, however, the meat is only part or the story, you need everything else to work together to make the experience truly great. For me, this is where the taco fell flat on its side. For one there is the sauces (cilantro crema and a chile glaze). These sauces were a little off to the edge, and their quantities and positioning at the bottom did not allow them to shine. If I find myself looking for them as I eat, I know a little more would not have hurt. My second gripe is regards to the fresh/vegetable toppings. While I liked the taste and crunch of the radish, I found it made the taco a bit unwieldy. Rather than have a couple long strips, having more shorter ones would have helped keep the flavor consistent, and made the taco easier to handle. Regarding the cebollitas, I don't recall these having a significant impact on the dish, this isn't bad in and of itself, but if they weren't very memorable, making them stand a out a but more would not hurt. Though my review was less than spectacular, I do look forward to returning at some point and trying more of their food! read more

Tldr: great tacos. I've been to the Cambridge location and this place is a lot better. Not sure why or how but I don't remember needing to go back to the Cambridge location but this place? This place for sure is going to be hit up every time I'm on newbury street. I had the fried shrimp taco and also their steak taco and both were excellent. The shrimp beautifully fried with a delicious sauce on top. Can't wait to eat back here again. read more

OMG! Let me first say I visited the brewery food truck and not the Newburyport Street truck, but I'm sure it's the same! We got smoked tofu tacos and street corn. The blue corn taco shells were perfect, the tofu was perfectly smoked and crispy and the toppings were fresh and delicious. I love street corn but find some too cheesy (which takes away from the roasted corn) but not here. The cheese was just enough to to get the taste of it but allowed for the corn to be the main focus of the dish. And the portions are big for the price. It was so good I forgot to stop and get a good picture. read more

It's been 2-3 weeks since I visited Boston and I still am thinking about these tacos and the corn. I'd highly recommend getting a combo so you can get a little bit of everything. read more

Naco Taco on Newbury - 2 tacos and a side: tofu tacos and street corn - Tacos Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The tacos are firstly massive. I ordered all but the fish and tofu for tacos and they are each so unique. I think the bistec is my favorite just because the guacamole on the tortilla really keeps it from falling apart. Price is $4 per taco regardless of filling which is solid for Boston (don't come for me I know they're cheaper elsewhere but this is New England not SoCal). I was wearing a nice work dress and honestly got food all over my hands and probably face and could not care less I was like an animal it was so good. Also the boxes for the tacos have built in taco stands which is true innovation. They living in 3019. read more

Naco Taco on Newbury - Cochinita pibil tacos and chorizo taco. - Tacos Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Awesome truck on Newbury. We tried two of the tortas - ahogada (pulled pork + bacon), and pavo (braised turkey). Flavors were fantastic - really great stuff. I would definitely not attempt eating the ahogada with anything but a fork and knife - it's entirely smothered in sauce, so if you're looking for something to have quickly on the street would stick with tacos. Additionally tried the side of shaved vegetable salad which was underwhelming, very little dressing. read more

1st timer. Won't be a last timer. I found this place by accident - I walked for about 20 minutes trying to figure out what to eat for lunch. Then I smelled something delicious and saw the Naco Taco truck. Intrigued, I checked Yelp and found that Naco Taco was highly rated. I was game. I told the woman that it was my first time, and she walked me through the menu and a couple of people who had already offered shared their advice and praise. I went with the $10 Taco Combo - two tacos and one side. I had the smoked tofu taco and the chorizo taco. The person taking my order strongly suggested their corn as my side. I took her advice. Man, am I glad I did. Everything was delicious, had some really good spice, and considering the portion size and the location (Back Bay, Newbury Street), it was a good price. It was also packaged very well, which you can in the photo. I will totally be back and look forward to trying the tortas. If you're in the area, you should go. read more

Absolutely loved it. Flavor was there and texture was great. Very affordable . Pulled Pork taco was juicy and has small slices of radish to give a texture of crunch . It was nicely flavored and the corn wasn't messy to eat. Fish taco was crispy and the bright color sauce was relish. I would have tacos on newbury all the time if I could! It all comes in a cute portioned box. read more

Naco Taco on Newbury - Pork taco and fish taco with a side of street corn - Tacos Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Naco Taco is delicious! They offer a variety of taco and torta selections and a few combo value meals (two tacos + a side or a torta + a side). Conveniently parked right on Newbury Street, they attract lots of customers and offer quick, efficient service. I always get their bistec taco, which consists of grilled steak, a smattering of avocado spread, cheese, and a chipotle crema. They don't skimp on their fillings! You can always expect lots of flavorful steak strips. The steak and avocado combination is amazing! They go together so well. :- ) I've tried their chorizo taco, which was very delicious. I love potatoes, so this was the perfect taco. It consisted of potato chunks, cilantro, bits of onion, and a chipotle-tomatillo sauce. I've also tried their smoked tofu taco, which consists of refried beans, salsa, crema sauce, and a few chunks of fried tofu. I found this taco to be lacking when compared to the bistec. The refried beans didn't help the dryness, either! The salsa addition​ was probably the best part because it added some pizzazz to an otherwise plain taco. If you're looking for bold flavors, I'd recommend the bistec and chorizo tacos! read more

Naco Taco on Newbury - Bistec taco - Tacos Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I stopped here while shopping with a friend on a whim, and was very pleasantly surprised! Two tacos and a side for $10 is a deal you can't beat. It was a really convenient meal for people who didn't want to sit down and spend lots of time and money on food. Besides just being quick and not pricey, these were also fresh and delicious. My favorite was definitely the shrimp taco, with plenty of crispy little shrimp and a tasty sauce, too. The chicken was good as well, but lacked a little in the flavor and texture department. Still, I was very happy with both tacos. The corn off the cob was GREAT. I found it very unique, and my friend and I both loved it. The portion looked decent but actually was way more than enough. It was packed with flavor, from sweet corn to bits of herbs and cheese. All in all, I would recommend this place to anyone shopping on Newbury or just in Boston. The price was really affordable, and the portions were perfect and adjustable for appetites large and small. Will be back! read more

Great tacos! The cod and carnitas tacos were delicious and the guacamole was fresh with chunks of avocado. Add a Jarritos soda and the total with two tacos, guacamole and chips is just $12. This is as authentic, fresh and tasty as you will find anywhere. The pulled pork in the taco was juicy and perfectly seasoned, so I am hoping the middling experience of the reviewer who described the pork as tough and dry was a one off. The only problem you will have is finding a place to eat on busy Newbury St. read more

They make their own masa from scratch! Like, they nixtmalize dried corn and grind fresh masa at their Cambridge location-- thus, they have the most amazing corn tortillas! Also, pro tip, you can buy 5 pound bags of fresh masa from them to make homemade tamales, which I did this year for Christmas, which made me feel like the master of the holiday. Also, their smoked tofu and black bean taco is a delight and a revelation. One taco is the perfect pre-yoga snack (because that's how I roll) and two tacos is the perfect post yoga dinner.

Walking back to my hotel after work and enjoy the scenic Newbury Street and it's unique Brownstone buildings that are now storefronts for all type of businesses and eateries. Stopped at the taco truck which caught my eye. Decide to try their $10 Taco Combo - choice of two tacos and a side. I chose the Fish and Steak tacos and the street corn as my side. (Corn is already cut off from the cob, much easier to eat and not lacking the taste) Their food is awesome and the tortilla taste like it made from scratch with nice charred to them. Fish is fried in a nice light batter and is crispy yet not oily. Flank Steak is tender and seasoned perfectly. You can taste every ingredient separately when eating them. One of the best tacos I had read more

Naco Taco on Newbury - Tacos Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

The food was actually really good. However they need some sort of organization with orders being called out. The person calling out names is unintelligible and people kept taking other people's orders and eating them. When I told them I never got my food (despite being the only person standing there for a solid 30 minutes which should raise some questions...) they just said someone took your food, oh well. They need to write names on boxes or have numbers. read more

I. Have. Never. Had. A. Better. Taco. The flavor, the texture, the balance, the convenient and environmentally friendly container that it all comes packaged in - this place is 1000% amazing. Honestly I have been twice in the past week and I am planning a 3rd trip ASAP because I need to try the shrimp and fish tacos. The 2 tacos and a side is only $10 which is insanely good, especially on Newbury street, and the portion is generous so you get your money's worth either way. Both the street corn and chips and guacamole sides were great and the chicken taco is pretty much what dreams are made of. Truly do yourself a favor and go check this place out. It's perfect for a lunch break if you work in the area, or even just a Little impromptu picnic on the Esplanade. Go, eat, and enjoy. I can't wait to try out the restaurant in Cambridge. read more

Naco taco is a little treasure on Newbury Street. Their tacos are amazing. I work down the street and it's super convenient to be able to order online for my 30 minute break. I always get the smoked tofu taco and let me tell you... omg. Their guacamole is perfectly salty and the chips are crisp, never stale. The workers are very nice- even in the heat, they're always in a good mood (which is more than I can say I would be in humid Boston weather.) The pricing is great. You can get two tacos and a side for $10, for Newbury street eats, that's a steal. They're usually out of the guacamole when I go, but that gives me an excuse to try the rice and beans which is a perfect side to the tacos. read more

Tacos are decent, but over priced. My deal is with how rude the cashier is. She tried to charge me $50 and when I asked "$50?!" She said, oh $15. ‍ I've stopped in twice but won't be back due to her inability to provide proper customer service. read more

Holy smokes!!!!!!! Best vegan taco EVER. The combo comes with two tacos a side and drink. The tofu is magically firm chewy and smoked. I've never had tofu this good. There's also chiles pico and crema on top. Seriously, bravo Naco Taco!!!! How do you guys get the tofu that flavorful and Smokey?!?! Highly recommend this food truck. Great packaging with quality ingredients. Perfect for lunch or any meal if you're in the area. read more

Such a good, authentic taco for a cheap price, ESPECIALLY on Newbury. Great food truck, would recommend!

Tacos were amazing on fresh homemade soft corn tortillas. Had the pulled pork and the steak and both were bursting with flavor! Different tastes and sauces on each. So unique ! read more

Naco Taco is low-key one of the top five quick lunches in the Back Bay, and almost definitely the best value-- you can spend less than $10 fill yourself up with 2 tacos. I introduced my office (in the Pru) to Newbury Naco Taco, and I consider it a great and honestly resume-worthy achievement. Their fish tacos are unbeatable and worthy of a Nobel Prize. Pulled Pork and Al Pastor come in second and third place, respectively. The only "miss", IMO, is the chorizo taco, which isn't terrible, per se, but it doesn't hold up to the high bar set by the other menu options. read more

Delicious! They're conveniently located at the entrance of Newbury street. They have a deal for $10 for two tacos and a side, so I got a cod taco, a pulled pork taco, and a side of chips and guacamole. The tacos were quite large and good value. The fried cod taco was delightfully crispy but the pulled pork was a little heavy for my taste. Really quick service as well. read more

These tacos are horrible (chicken, chorizo, and steak is what we had). Not only were they just warm, but the flavors just don't work together. Better to go to chipotle, get street tacos, or anywhere else than paid for these over priced pseudo tacos. read more

Tried the chicken and beef tacos and they were standard. I would get the beef taco again for its diverse flavor. The chicken was dry and didn't have much spice to it. The corn off the cob had too much aioli that was too overpowering. But it was fun trying their food! read more
