Got introduced to this place a month ago. I cannot say enough about how delicious the burritos are. They are so flavorful and wonderful.
Of course the food wouldn't be as good if the staff at Villa Mexico wasn't so lovely. What a great group of people.
We used their catering service (loaded burritos) for an event this week and our guests were extremely pleased with the food. Everyone asked where the food came from.
Don't miss this place if you're in Boston!
Withouth question the best burrito in the city. My go to is a beef burrito, extra spicy with guac. Not only is the food without rival, but Julie is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. I can't say enough positive things about this culinary gem.
Stopped in for a lunch after a morning of walking around Boston all day. All of the corporate lunchers were permeating the streets during their break. I couldn’t decide between poke and here. I ultimately decided to try a mole chicken burrito, nice rice, add guac. IT WAS THE BEST BURRITO I’ve had in a min. It was not spicy, (which I like) and the mole was so juicy and sweet. I charged up and finished that bad boy on the the rest of my journey. Highly recommend this place for authentic Mexican food in Boston. The workers were stellar as well.

One of the best burritos in Boston! We review hundreds of breakfast burritos and Villa Mexico Cafe gets it right! Great ingredients, well distributed, and a ton of flavor. I also tried their lunch burrito for the first time today and it was amazing. I got a spicy chicken with everything. Highly recommend!
Mole burrito was excellent. A bit messy if you're an amateur burrito eater such as myself, but nothing a fork didn't fix. I asked for "spicy" and it was less spicy than I was expecting (more of a medium spicy than a hot spicy), but take that as an observation rather than a complaint—still excellent. Would definitely come again next time I'm in Boston, and I'd probably order exactly the same thing in burrito bowl format.
Take out counter with a few seats to dine In if you like. Best burrito I've had in Boston.
Friendly service. You can see where they make the food and it's absolutely spotless. Highly recommend. 10/10
Best burrito in Boston, for real. I frequented this place as it is right next to my work. You could get a burrito with all the fixings for 15 and change, but recently I went and that burrito has jumped up to 18 and change. So I am no longer frequenting. I am not ready yet to pay 19 bucks for a burrito. Maybe in 5 years… but not now. Hope you all do well.
Best authentic Mexican food, anywhere! I love the burritos and salsa. Can’t wait for my next visit when I’m in Boston 😎
Fantastic burritos - the spicy mole burrito is the best burrito in Boston. Mama king is also the best!! The only reason I’ll put up with the return to the office is because I get to come here for lunch.
Great food only thing is mild , spicy option is not needed better off ordering no sauce on the burrito, I love how they made the perfect toasted tortilla

On May 4th, in the spirit of Cinco de Mayo, two friends and I went to Villa Mexico for lunch. It was my first time there.
It was *awesome*. The staff, particularly Momma King's daughter, were visibly stressed; I imagine that this is a *particularly busy* day for them, and the daughter was atypically snapping at the staff and customers. I just stayed out of the way and enjoyed the show. When I made eye contact with some of the cooks, we'd just grin.
We arrived at about 11:45, beating most of the rush, although there were about eight people waiting for their orders.
One friend ordered a burrito bowl w/o rice, the other a burrito, and I ordered two tacos - the Tinga (shredded chicken in a smokey red chile sauce) and the Campechano (a combination of meats, probably beef and pork).
The burrito took the most time to prepare, so plan accordingly. The burrito bowl was up the quickest, followed by my tacos.
We all enjoyed our meals. I thought the tacos were *excellent*. Full of fresh ingredients and flavor. I liked them even more because they are $3.99 each on Fridays, instead of $5.99 like every other day.
Oh, and as the other reviewers have noted, Momma King is the best. She was warm and welcoming, joyful, genuine, and dear.
Please don't let the start of my review prevent you from trying this place - everyone has tough days.
Go for the food and to say "hi" to Momma King.
If you want traditional Mexican food that will never disappoint get yo butt down here before 4pm or use whatever delivery service you can. It doesn’t get much more real than a Woman from Mexico City, everybody’s Abuelita, Señora Julia, who came here and couldn’t find the food she liked so she opened a restaurant! Best Mexican food in the City!
