Chilacates South Boston — Restaurant in Boston

On Thursday I came here for the Birria Tacos and they were great. The only thing that seemed strange to me was that the birria was on the side instead of on the tacos.

Especially different was the carne asada, the South End one melts in your mouth but this locations was a bit dry. Hope they can keep things consistent as...

Writing this at 1230am midway through a loaded chicken burrito and ay Dios mío.

Authentic, large portions, and reasonably priced this location is superb. The staff was exceptional and they were still delighted to see me stumble in near close. I can see myself trying the whole menu or having the same burrito every week. Don’t go here so that I can continue to walk in without...
