The meat is unreal. It’s so good, whatever you get. As someone with a ton of allergies, they were pretty accommodating. Great spot for vegan cheese (if you don’t do well with dairy) and their tortillas don’t have gluten. It’s a hidden gem for real!

Is it the best Mexican place in Boston? Very likely but I have no proof. What I have a proof of is thousands of burritos and tacos eaten here over years. I was never disappointed if only in myself for overeating. I find fish tacos and burritos the best. The staff is accommodating to reasonable requests (gluten free, etc) but don't expect a bespoke cooking. Yes burritos are overflowing and not convenient to eat on public transit (which by the way you shouldn't do anyway) but you can always get a burrito bowl. Parking can be a challenge if parallel parking is a challenge for you, but if one is willing to walk there are more spots further along Comm Ave.
