Chilacates is conveniently located near the Roxbury crossing orange line T station. I went here with my colleague for lunch and ordered the chicken tinga bowl. The portion size was good and the food was well seasoned.They have a cute corner with warm lights and pretty art. The ambiance is nice and peaceful and the service quick.

A solid option for affordable Mexican food in Mission Hill! It's a small place, definitely best for takeout or delivery. They were also ready very quick - walking from Simmons academic campus immediately after ordering, they were ready. The burrito bowls are super filling, although my chicken one could have used a bit more in it. It was delicious, jam-packed with beans, rice, cheese, and rice. Others in my group opted for tacos or quesadillas, and they looked great. I can't wait to try more!

Got delivery from here last night since the hubs had a craving for enchiladas!We ordered the Al pastor enchiladas, chicken tinga tostada, chicken quesadilla, grilled fish burrito bowl and the elote.The elote was awesome, I finished the whole thing although I was supposed to only have half and save some for the hubs lol :). He didn't mind though. He enjoyed the enchilada very much. I liked the grilled fish burrito bowl although I'd like the option to have pinto beans. The tostada was yummy. Grilled chicken quesadilla was good too especially with the guac sour cream pico toppings.All in all, tasty food with leftovers to enjoy again!

I've been to this Chilacates multiple times now and have really enjoyed my meals. I'd say this is one of the more authentic Mexican places in the Boston area, and that's what makes it so good! They make an excellent burrito and excellent street style tacos. All their meat fillings are flavorful and delicious - my go-to is the al pastor. I've also tried chicken tinga, papas con chorizo, and pork en chile and those were all good too.

Stopped in on a Monday night for an easy, take-out dinner. Our food was prepared quickly, and fresh as we ordered it, which was great. Service was extremely kind despite juggling numerous online, pick-up, and dine-in orders. The restaurant itself is cozy and quiet inside, though there is limited seating, so plan ahead if you want to sit inside. The food was good, and excellent value. I ordered the carnitas enchiladas and enjoyed them. The rice and beans were a little unexciting, but not bad. Overall a great spot for fast-casual Mexican, and definitely better than other national chains in the area.

This place is so good, I went there before and had one fish taco right before they closed, and it was the best fish taco I've had in boston. So today, I had to go back to make sure that I was right. I'm not sure it was. This time, I got more than just a fish taco. I got the carne asada as well as the flan in the side of rice where refried beans and cheese were. My son got a burrito. I have chicken half carne asada. They take your order pretty quickly, and you only have to wait a little bit for the food. Though there is a buffet, some of the stuff gets girls fresh. The area itself is kind of small, but there was a bunch of people in there, and we didn't feel crowded, and there's plenty of places for people to sit. There is street parking, I guess it just depends on how many people are out that night to determine how many spots you can find. This place is definitely my new favorite. And everybody is cool and nice.

First off, the Birria Tacos are LEGIT - each one is packed with so much flavor & cheesy goodness. If you're feeling indecisive, just buy them. You won't regret it. Their Elote was really good too. Corn was cooked perfectly and the seasoning is addictive. Downsides were the Pressed Corn Tacos were meh (since they quickly got soggy) and the Tamale was kinda bland. It's also pretty pricey so definitely a splurge.

I'm obsessed. The food here is so bomb and affordable. I love the burritos and quesadillas. They also have the yummiest passion fruit juice.

This is what I had to encounter while getting off of work. I've been coming here for three days now just found out about this place. The food has been OK then I assaulted. I'm from California and I've never had to deal with this no matter if anybody spoke English or not, nobody should have to go through this type of energy this type of formation of customer service. This is disgraceful. I hope this is
