"Dora Taqueria opened just weeks before the pandemic closed down the city in 2020. In the intervening years, it has not only survived but thrived: Owner Kelmyn Mejia and his daughter Kimberly expanded with a Woburn location of the taqueria in 2022. For the uninitiated, start with the birria tacos. The crispy, fried outer shells give way to flavorful stewed beef mixed with gobs of melty cheese, ready to dip in a side cup of warming, smoky consomé." - Celina Colby, Eater Staff
