Editorial Review for Anna's Taqueria – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
With a lack of other bargain dining options in the area, this fast food Mexican chain enjoys an amazing volume of customers--but, of Anna's four locations, it's the quietest, the location not as high-profile as the others. You have a good chance of landing a seat among the studenty crowd; service is friendly and competent, but less so when the line's out the door.
The Food
Anna's limited menu includes hefty burritos, gooey quesadillas and over-stuffed tacos; all are meals in themselves. The super burritos feature a choice of grilled chicken, tender pork carnitas, moist steak or grilled vegetables with rice, beans, cheese, salsa and hot sauce inside a giant flour tortilla. Weighing in well over a pound and costing around $4, this is one of the city's best bargains. The house salsa, chilled and cilantro-heavy, goes great with crunchy, warm tortilla chips.

Insider Tips
The ExtrasSorry, senor: The restaurant serves no alcohol. If you really crave a Corona with your burrito, take it to go.
Know Before You GoBe sure to fuel up on cash before you show up, as no credit cards are accepted. But don't despair: If you forget your wallet, you'll probably be able to scrounge up enough in your pockets for a taco.

Anna's serves up what I consider to be the best made burrito in Boston. I have been visiting the place regularly for about two years now and have rarely been disappointed with my order. The staff can be pushy at times, even when there is no one in line. They never fail, however, to load their burritos up with enough rice, meat, and toppings to keep me full for a while. The chicken has always been tender, something I can't say about Boca Grande's chicken down the street. A few months ago I was shocked to find that their prices went up. I still manage to get a burrito, chips, and guacamole for under $9--a good deal in my book.
Pros: Loaded burritos, solid guacamole
Cons: Pushy staff, restaurant interior could use some work

Food was disgusting and not worth the price. The ambiance was also uncomfortable. Not an enjoyable place to be in the slightest.
Pros: Nothing.
