Overview

Amelia's Taqueria, nestled on Boylston Street in Boston, is a vibrant destination for lovers of authentic Mexican cuisine. This casual spot offers a broad menu that centers on burritos, chimichangas, and tacos, each crafted with fresh ingredients and a careful balance of flavors. Their signature Steak Burrito and Nachos Supreme stand out as hearty choices, while the Burrito Bowl with rice and beans serves as a lighter yet fulfilling alternative.

The restaurant’s atmosphere is welcoming but unpretentious. The interior is colorful and warm, creating a cozy environment that complements the bold, vibrant tastes of the food.

Service at Amelia's is often highlighted as a key strength, with staff members providing warm, personal attention that enhances the overall dining experience.

Good food with good prices. Place itself is somewhat dreary but the outside seating is lovely. I got the spicy chicken which was okay, not very spicy and a bit chewy. Overall; good spot that I would definitely recommend.

This is a pretty nice spot. I had a Mexican Bowl with spicy chicken. This business has huge potential for growth. They operate with Toasts as their POS and use third party applications for delivery, their urban exposure is for sure up there. If you’re a commercial realtor this would be a nice opportunity for an investment partnership.
