Taqueria La Mexicana (Somerville, MA)
Score: 9.5 / 10 Reviewed by: tulrich
I haven't been there in years, but when I lived in Boston this was my other standby (besides Anna's). It's more homey and laid-back than Anna's, and they usually had tamales -- yum!
The "pork burro" was always delicious, though in my experience the integration was somewhat variable -- when it was good, it was peerless, and when it was bad, it was merely great. Expect a steamed tortilla + cheese, rice, red beans, moist carnitas, pico de gallo and optional other stuff. Apply drips of hot sauce by yourself as you eat.
I've also enjoyed a few tortas here; pretty much the above burrito on a fresh sub roll instead of tortilla.
