"Montecristo absolutely deserves 5 stars--I think the lower rated reviews are just from people expecting Mexican-American food for Qdoba palates. This place is the real deal. I was so happy to see them reopen after initially being closed for COVID. If you like authentic Salvadoran food or Central American food generally, you will be very happy you ordered here. Amazing food made with love, and it's a great value for to-go. I especially recommend the Plato Montecristo or the Super Desayuno plate. Both are so delicious and MASSIVE--one of these plates plus a pupusa order or two is usually enough for two people, or one person and awesome leftovers."

The tacos were fantastic! The steak tacos were delicious, and the tortillas were of high quality, something that is not often found in Boston. The server was friendly and attentive.

The food was excellent, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the prices were very reasonable. The baleadas were delicious, and the tacos and papusas were also tasty, served with a fantastic salsa verde. I highly recommend this place and will definitely return in the future.
