    Nachos (no meat), two tostadas and an horchata
    Karla R.

    I was REALLY excited to try this place because A.) I just moved from LA and B.) I'm Mexican-American, so I was really happy to find a slice of home in my new area. It's definitely not the kind of Mexican food I grew up eating, but it still tasted pretty good. I would say the dishes here are more Americanized as opposed to authentic, but nonetheless they're tasty. The prices are decent, but what really won me over was the atmosphere The walls, furniture and decor reminded me of the dozens of restaurants I grew up near. Plus, they were playing bachata (music genre) and it was especially nice to hear since it's been a long time since I've heard it. Actually, it was my first time hearing it since I moved to West Roxbury last July.

    Barbacoa Burrito

    Service was fast and pretty courteous/attentive (maybe cuz I was the only person there, cuz COVID....) and value for the price is solid. I am taking off a star because the burrito was not wrapped tightly at all and disintegrated as I walked home eating it, I wish it had stayed together but no ;( my hands and jacket smelled like burrito juice the rest of the way home and no napkin in bag. I wouldn't not come back but I mean burrito wrapping...is a fundamental part of selling burritos no? :( it ended up being a big soft taco :( Restaurant was clean and ingredients were fine otherwise

    good food. Tasty. Fresh. Reminds me of annas taqorea, pretty expensive though. I waited a while and asked where was y horchada, and she said she didnt ring it up, and I was surprised because my burrito was 11..... I would go back but order less expensive items. The ambiance was ok too but a real bad and ugly location. My super steak burrito came out good and the sauces were good.

    Sorry, I couldn't wait to dig in. This is the enchilada and it was delicious!

    I had heard good things and wanted to help a local business during these troubling times. This place did not disappoint! Selection is good, prices are really good, the flavors were fantastic! I ordered some takeout and picked up an Enchilada with pork carnitas as the meat filling. (You can customize the enchiladas extensively too.) I don't think I am over stating it to say it may have been the most flavorful enchilada I have ever had. The tortilla soup is described as the best this side of Texas and will be tried next. The chicken quesadilla was not your run of the mill and was greatly enjoyed. I'd recommend the guacamole too - it was also great! I can't wait until you can dine in there again so I can try out their margaritas.

    Yes Yelp, come through!! We were randomly craving for Mexican food and found this gem through yelp. Stopped by around noon on a Saturday morning and just managed to sit down and order ahead of the lunch crowd. We had a salad which was so yum with all the lovely toppings (black beans, guac, salsa, tortilla chips, and cilantro dressing) with added chicken for $10. And a super sized burrito with shredded beef, which came with soft/ thin tortilla and hot/ fresh toppings for around $9. We'll definitely come back and try more items from the menu.

    Mexican Subway. Eat here if you feel like waiting in line and eating cold enchiladas that are assembled in front of you and never warmed. Update: I wrote this while in the restaurant, and when I was leaving, the owner asked me how my meal was. I said fine and left. HE FOLLOWED ME ONTO THE STREET, and then when I said I did not have time to talk about it, he sent me a message suggesting I was not willing to have "an adult" conversation.

    My huge piece of onion in the guacamole. They also put my vegetarian tacos in the same container as steak ones
    Nikki A.

    I'll never go here again. They left me on hold for 20min, giant onion in my side guacamole and they put my vegetarian tacos in the same container as a steak one and the juice ruined my tacos.

    Tacos!
    Mark D.

    Been here many times...great food, service, and affordable prices. This trip I ordered 2 tacos, one pork carnitas and the other steak carne asada. Both portions were large and the meat was flavorful. I preferred the steak. For toppings I got cilantro, onion, and hot sauce. Beware the hot sauce is muy caliente! Thanks Pancho...

    Stopped by here yesterday, and honestly, I should've kept driving…read more Before I get into the negatives, I do want to shout out Kimani and Lisa , they were amazing, friendly, and super helpful. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. The restaurant itself looks clean, has plenty of space to dine in, and parking is easy, no complaints there. Now, the food... I should've known something was off when I had to drive with the windows down because of the smell. It was an overwhelming mix of vinegar and hot sauce. My boyfriend ordered sliders with cheese fries. The tenders were completely overloaded with seasoning -- to the point where it was excessive and unpleasant. He chose the "mild" spice level, and there was no heat at all. I ordered the chicken sandwich (medium) with cheese fries. The sandwich itself had potential, but the single tender packed with heavy, overpowering seasoning ruined it. It honestly ended up being some of the worst chicken I've ever had. I also ordered a reaper tender (which requires signing a waiver), and I regret it. Yes, it's hot, but beyond that, it's just not good. It tastes like the chicken was rolled in every spice possible without any balance. I love spicy food and was excited to try it, but this was just unpleasant. The portions, especially the cheese fries, were small for the price. I spent about $50 for two meals, two drinks, and one extra tender, which didn't feel worth it at all. The slush drinks (similar to Minute Maid) were also disappointing -- they tasted sour, almost like the machine hadn't been properly cleaned. Overall, I'd rate this a 3/10, and those points are entirely for the customer service from Kimani and Lisa. If I could get a refund, I would.

Here you can create your own unique salad with a good variety of salad makings including your basic lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers plus potato salads, fruits and a great variety of other salad toppings, vegetables and dressings. They have a good hot food bar too with various meat dishes, chicken and so forth plus pasta dishes, potatoes, vegetables and more. You'll also find some nice treats in their bakery area such as muffins and cookies. Their deli carries Boar's Head deli meats which is a very good meat company and their cheeses are excellent as well. If you're looking to buy groceries here they do carry quite a few of the essentials. They have a good sized produce area here as well for your fruits and veggies.

    Shake Shack in Dedham's Legacy Place is a reliable stop that benefits from its location as much as…read moreits menu. We walked into a space that sits at street level with a seating area handling the volume of a busy lunch or dinner crowd reasonably well, and the lively atmosphere made it a comfortable place to settle into rather than just a grab and go counter. The ShackBurger is the obvious anchor and holds up to the brand's reputation, juicy and well assembled with the cheese and sauce distribution landing evenly across the patty in a way that keeps each bite consistent. The Shack Stack is worth upgrading to if you want something more substantial, and the shroom burger is a strong option for anyone who wants something different from the standard beef lineup. The cheese fries are among the most ordered sides and are the right call over the standard fries if you want something that holds up better through the meal. Consistency is the main variable worth noting. Temperature and timing can be hit or miss depending on how busy the location is running, with burgers occasionally coming out on the cooler side when the kitchen is stacking orders. Getting there during a slightly off peak window tends to produce a better result, and online ordering pickup can be uneven in terms of staff attentiveness at this location. The overall experience remains solid for a fast casual burger stop in a busy outdoor mall setting, but calibrating expectations on timing makes the visit smoother.

    Terrible. This already overpriced burger ($10.48) was thrown together without any care whatsoever…read more Bun was crunched and practically folded in half, toppings were thrown on and falling off. In addition, I ordered no pickles and it was covered in pickles. Setting aside the fact that Shake Shack is already way overpriced for mediocre fast food, this is ridiculous. I might as well have gone to Burger King for the same quality but at least pay half the price. The quality has gone way down, likely because they keep trying to add all sorts of items to their menu that make it more work for the employees. You want a good fast food burger, go to Five Guys (much better french fries). I would give it zero stars but gave it 1 star is because when I complained they refunded my money. But that does not change the fact that my meal was unappetizing and not what I ordered.
