Felipe's Taqueria
Bold, unapologetic flavors that dance on the palate
The Democratic Table — accessible to all
Three floors of tacos in Harvard Square. The rooftop bar is the move in summer - margaritas overlooking Brattle Street. Fast, fresh, open stupid late (until 2am weekends). Breakfast burritos save lives. Not the most authentic, but exactly what you need at 1am.
