Picante Taqueria

This little gem is such a joy ... and so tasty! The folks who served us were incredibly sweet. We needed a quick bite between music sets at a concert around the corner, and this was just an oasis. We all went for the loaded fish tacos, and maybe it was the power of suggestion, but so did the people in line behind us. Thinking we might grab and go, we sat and enjoyed this nice little place. Next time we will be back for the shakes and the churros!

Such a good spot for Mexican food! It's a casual atmosphere where you order at the counter but there's a cute area downstairs to eat in. I recommend getting the birria tacos but everything there is so good!

Picante is a familiar sort of place, the as-you-like made-to-order Mexican casual joint that puts out a big mise and you choose as your whim dictates. The selection and quality of the toppings here really stands out to me, and the staff are really friendly. Everything I've tried has been really delicious, and I'm happy to have another spot for birria tacos nearby, theirs are great! It's right on the plaza if you want to eat outside, and there's extra seating downstairs.

Another Hidden Gem in Somerville,MA!Unless you work or live in the area, you may miss this small, but amazing place. This is a fast food authentic Mexican Restaurant. The food is very fresh and I ordered the Nachos, which you can add anything that you want. What I loved about them is that I had enough ingredients, so that each chip or bite had something to flavor! They also put them under the oven to melt the cheese.I added lots of Jalapeños, carnitas, queso blanco, corn, refried beans and a chipotle sauce that was just the right spice.I paired that with my favorite Tamarindo "Jarritos" and the meal was game over!Definitely coming back for more!

This is literally what I imagine allRecipes recipes for like, "copycat chipotle" tastes like. It was bland boring but (generally) fresh. I guess it is better than mall food, but I don't know if the people who like this place have ever had real Mexican food.

Excellent food, big portions and fresh tasty food.Good and fast service, the staff is very friendly.Ambiance is clean and animated with good background music.

Loved this Mexican place in Union Square - it was quiet on Saturday night when I went. Service was super quick & accommodating; they loaded my bowl up (as you can see)! They have a lot of flavorful sauces to spice up your meal. Worth checking out if you're in the area!

Amazing taqueria- I am so glad they opened nearby us. Highly recommend their tacos and churros which comes w dulce de leche. Staffs are incredibly friendly!

Pedi tacos de birria, y me entregaron una cosa diferentes, con esta vez ya son dos veces que me dan mi pedido mal, la primera ocasión me dieron una carne que no era de birria y en esta ocasión, paso lo mismo otra vez, no pude ver en el restaurante porque siempre lo pido para llevar.

Food is amazing! Staff is great. I had a bunch of questions when ordering and the guy answered them all with such patience.
