The veggie burrito at this restaurant is excellent and vegan-friendly. However, the chips and salsa could use some improvement.

This might be the best burrito in Boston. Top tier. Also have breakfast and other Mexican plates.

I recently tried Don Julio Restaurant in Somerville for a to-go order, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations! While it may not be your typical sit-down restaurant experience, the Al Pastor burrito stole the show. It was packed with flavor and definitely worth every penny. The papusas were another highlight; they were delicious and satisfying.The staff was friendly, and my order was ready on time, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Don Julio Restaurant is a solid choice for a quick bite or takeout in Somerville. I highly recommend trying their Al Pastor burrito—it's a must-have!

Tried my first pupusa here and my goodness was it delicious!! I didn't expect it to be so filling with the bean and cheese, I ended up only eating one of the two carne asada crispy tacos I ordered and had some leftover for lunch the next day! The crispy taco was super unique and better than a crunchy corn taco shell you typically get. Definitely will come back here as a lunch option.
