I ll start off by saying this place has great service, which is why I gave it 4 in stead of 3 stars. We went for a friend birthday. We had a group of 8 and brought a cake. They were very accommodating with our request to have the cake brought out as a surprise after the food. Our server did an excellent job I was food recommendations and drink recommendations as well as being very personable.

As for the drinks, they were a little disappointing. I ordered a margarita that was supposed to have muddled strawberries, but it came out with more of a sweet and strawberry syrup. It ended up being way too sweet. My boyfriend had a Mezcal drink and was quite impressed with the variety of the tequila and Mezcal menu.

The food was OK for Boston Mexican food, but our nachos were lacking in both cheese and meat, which let s be honest, that s what really makes nachos nachos. The tacos were very good. That even give you the choice of tortilla that you want and have quite a variety of different meats to go in in them. We stuck with the more traditional pork adobado which was very good. We also started off with the trio of dips for the table. This was quite the hit and everyone enjoyed the queso the guacamole and the salsa which all had great flavors.

Overall I would grant give the quality of the food and drinks three stars but I rounded up to four purely for the great service that we had the night that we went.
