Lone Star
Lone Star is great! Plus their nachos, street corn and taquitos are superb. If they have the lengua taco...go for that.

My favorite tacos
Mexican: Taqueria El Amigo, Taqueria Jalisco, Angela's Cafe, Tenoch, El Centro (the fanciest of the bunch)
Salvadoran / Guatemalan: Mama Blanca, Mi Pueblito
American-owned, Mexican style: El Pelon, Dorado Tacos y Cemitas (both do respectable Baja-style fish tacos, too)
Border-style: Lone Star Taco Bar
Fusion: InBoston (Korean/Mex), El Triunfo (Turkish/Mex, ask for a taco with kofta)
Creative: Tremont 647 (Tuesday nights only)
Any favorite burritos, MC Slim?
Especially southern California/San Diego style (smaller, refried not black beans but no beans unless requested, usually w/o rice?)
thanks.

Taco El Paso
In Everett, a Salvadoran place. Totally amazing, and nice folks. Easy to get to from Sullivan, Wellington, or Malden Center.

Mission Cantina
Mission Cantina in Amherst, MA is hands down the best in the state. Sadly the version in Brookline was never really up to snuff or made enough so it is no longer there.
Tacos Lupitas in Lynn is
Tacos Lupitas in Lynn is hands down the best (and cheapest) I've ever had. They're Salvadorean and delicous. Might take a ride over now
Taco Party!
Try the taco party food truck. Their tacos are super yummy and really interesting. I particularly love the sweet potato taco.

Real Taco
Real Taco 860 dot ave near Columbia rd and dot ave. real good and cheap.
Not necessarily an
Not necessarily an endorsement across the board, but the tacos al pastor at Anna's Taqueria are pretty damned good, as are the steak en salsa roja tacos (little lettuce, some sour cream, on nom nom)
Wapo Taco in Roslindale
Wapo Taco in Roslindale Square!!!! Diane and Lorenzo are amazing! I've been eating there since 1999!!!!
Romano's > Wapo Taco
I like Wapo, but they are a somewhat unique style and not for everyone. For authentic Tijuana street style tacos, Romano's is the place in Roslindale, and I'd say they stand up well against most other Boston taco joints. The chorizo or carnitas tacos are to die for, and they are one of the few places with such authentic fillings as cabeza and lengua. Good stuff!
Romano's
Their campechanos rule... (or did when we last visited a while back).
tacos
Try Jose in Cambridge, el sarapes in Braintree, sol Azteca in Brookline, or any place in East Boston.....so many to choose from! Happy hunting!
tacotaco
Sea breeze mexican grill on Dorchester Ave in Dorchester by Wells Ave eat there once and you fall in love...omg..
