El Pelón Taqueria

Mexican restaurant · Brighton

"Many know that you can get a great burrito from El Pelón, but the restaurant’s torta makes a great lunch (or any meal, really) as well. You can’t go wrong with any of the three choices: grilled steak, grilled chicken, or braised pork. Being able to get a torta and a soft drink for around $10 makes El Pelón a delicious and affordable choice for a torta fix. In addition to this location in Brighton, there’s also one in Fenway (92 Peterborough St., Boston)." - Karen Wilber
