Very Afforable food

by VivianS56

YUM! I <3 the Chicken Burrito. Anna's is very afforable with great portions. The ingredients are always fresh.

Very unappealing food

by Neileo

Apparently, this site will not let honest reviews through their filter. My first attempt was rejected, as there are apparently words describing certain of this planet's creatures that are not allowed here. Even though, please note, the expererience I am describing here is 100% true and accurate. So, read between the lines on your own.

Today, went to Anna's & ordered food to take home. At home, we'd opened a container of their quacamole and were eating it with chips when we saw an an entire whole and very large brown thing with lots of legs in the guacamole. So, I took all the food and went back to Anna's. Not only did they not apologize, but actually had the nerve to offer to replace the guacamole!!! As if we'd want another serving from the same place that guacamole came from... When I refused this offer, they finally, reluctantly gave me my money back, but only after painstakingly checking their cash register tape to make sure they had a receipt that matched up with what I had in my bag- gee, good thing I remembered to throw it all in, since I was so very calm after having such a pleasant experience. Definitely do not recommend this place.

• Pros: Pretty space, looks attractive
• Cons: Not clean

Best Taqueria ever!

by Rontu827

There is nowhere else that will serve up such large portions of delicious food for prices so low! I don't live in Boston anymore, so I have to eat at extremely second-rate Qdoba if I want a burrito. But every time I go and visit Boston, I have to stop at Anna's. My favorite is the al-pastor burrito! And I love the staff. They are so fast, I almost feel like I'm slowing them down by ordering! I also love the lemonade- refreshing and delicious. This is by far my favorite cheap food place in Boston, if not the whole East Coast.

• Pros: Food, service, long lines move quickly, cheap
• Cons: none!

Great burritos - quick moving lines even at lunch hour

by bookreadr

I have to disagree with the two reviewers below me. I've never (and this is on a weekly basis over five years) had the servers make a burrito without consulting me for my choices. You must speak loudly and be sure of your order before being called on but they are receptive to your requests. Efficiency should not be mistaken for carelessness or impatience. Anna's offers a good size meal for a great price (sidebar: cash only is a nuisance at times) and just like anywhere else in the city, you will be charged for additions to your meal. I don't know who these people are that expect freebies in a city like Boston. Try the chips and guacamole - the guac is fresh and has little chunks of tomato and is really good. I have a Boloco down the street and a Chipotle soon to open nearby, and having eaten at both of those I still drive the 10 minutes to Annas.

• Pros: Quick service
• Cons: Cash only

Go anywhere else for a burrito!!!!!

by ledbalz

Do yourself a favor and go to Boca Grande instead. Anna's is not good in any way... period. I went to Anna's last night in Davis Square and was not impressed at all. First of all, the service was really really bad. When I got to the counter, rather than wait for me to order, they asked if I wanted a Burrito and I said yes. Well, before even saying what kind, they had already made it and began folding it. I asked them to unfold it because they had made something I didn't want and then, after putting in the correct meat that I wanted, didn't wait for me to tell them that I wanted hot sauce. (and I don't talk slowly... he just didn't care to listen). Basically, they kept folding it before I had even listed the ingredients I wanted. I never even got the guacamole I wanted (didn't feel like asking the counter person to unfold it for a 3rd time!) And charging extra for things like sour cream seems ridiculous. I mean, what's a burrito without the proper ingredients????? And it was so hastily folded, that it fell apart as soon as I picked it up. Granted there was a line behind me, but if quality is sacrificed for speediness, what's the point of even eating there??? You can get much better cheap burritos in Boston just about anywhere else. Boca Grande, El Pelon (by Fenway), and even places like Q'doba and Chipolte will give you a better burrito. I know there is a loyal Anna's following, but after my experience, I don't know how. I have lived here all my life, tried Anna's for the first time, and will never go back.

• Pros: The fountain drink was okay.
• Cons: Everything else

The WORST food ever!

by foxyfishy14

A few friends of ours recently insisted that we must try Anna's Taqueria in Brookline, MA. What a mistake! The food was seriously some of the worst I've ever had! I ordered two soft tacos and they were horrible....the tortilla was soggy, the meat and seasonings were tasteless and the veggies were way overcooked! Even if it is cheap, in my book it still has to be good. And the service was atrocious as well..nobody even spoke any english! In my opinion, Moe's Southwestern Grill needs to open up a location and show Bostonians what good Mexican food (especially burritos) tastes like. It boggles my mind that Anna's continually wins best mexican/burrito year after year in polls taken by Boston Magazines. Is it just because there aren't any other places to have mexican food? I'm not the only one who feels this way, many of my friends think anna's is horrible too.

• Pros: None!
• Cons: Everything!

Can you say Burrito !!!

by mikedoyle35

I don't care what anyone says Anna's Burritos are pure happiness. I got hooked on Anna's 2 years ago when I worked in Somerville. The toughest part about taking on a promotion was not being able to have the best burrito I have ever had everyday for lunch. The quesadilla is pretty good too, very filling. Also top it off with a taco el pastor with a hint of lime. Thank you Anna's Taqueria!!!

• Pros: Quantity, flavor, fast, inexpensive
• Cons: I wish there was an Anna's closer to me - Route 1 : )
