Taqueria El Barrio - Crossing

I got three fish tacos and a horchata. Horchata was good! But the (very dry fish tacos didn?t have the chipotle mayo when I got them and then was told they didn?t have it when I asked for some, wish I knew before I ordered three of them because there was no flavor :

I got the crispy Pollo taco and a soft Pescado taco with an assortment of hot salsas they had. They have Pico de Gallo on top of some of the tacos with cucumbers and radishes on the side for a refreshing crunch. I absolutely loved their tacos and Nutella churros. I?m someone who is pretty particular with churros and I loved these ones because they were a little crispy (how I like them) as opposed to the chewy and doughiness of Lolita?s churros. You need to check this placeout!!! You?ll be obsessed like me, already coming back to this place SOON!

I’ve never been a fan of tacos, but Taqueria El Barrio completely changed my mind! I tried the pork belly tacos and grilled chicken tortas, and they were incredible. The drinks and sauces are exceptional—so fresh, delicious, and memorable! I can’t wait to return. I highly recommend visiting Taqueria El Barrio in Boston!

The service is prompt, which is a definite plus. However, while the tacos are decent for American-style tacos, they are served cold and don’t quite impress. On the other hand, the chips and salsa are excellent! Overall, I would rate it 4 out of 5.

This Mexican restaurant located inside the Timeout Market offers tacos and quesadillas. We tried the asada taco, carnitas taco, and a vegan chorizo quesadilla. The prices are what you would expect, around $15 per person depending on how many tacos you order. While the food wasn't extraordinary, I'd say it was better than average. I believe they could improve by using Beyond Meat or Impossible Meat instead of the vegan chorizo they currently offer. However, the horchata was fantastic—definitely worth trying!
