Fun vibe restaurant. Paintings of boston and everything that has to do with boston on the walls. Hot fresh sizzling fajitas brought to ur table. Tequila Wings that are delicious. Free Nachos and dip brought to your table. A great place to dine in the inner city.

It was close to our hotel. Thick, chunky salsa had a little bite, but not overpowering. Warm chips are always a win for me! The fajitas were good, but a lot of onion. Huge portions, enough to share! Friendly staff. I wasn't a fan of the sopapilla.

Food was great and prices very reasonable! Pulled pork burrito was fantastic and my wife enjoyed her quesadilla. Strawberry Rita was very tasty.

Fajitas and Ritas is one of my favorites restaurants in Boston. The staff are so friendly and attentive, you can taste the love in the food, and the vibes are great. I’m a regular and will be coming here for a long time. Also our server Selzo is always great.

Food was good and the service was good too. I settled on this place because it was closer to my hotel and they had a seat when I my first choice didn't. It seems to be a popular hangout for the local college students. The staff were all friendly. It wasn't anything to write home about but it was a good hearty meal that did the job.

quite possibly the worst food I’ve ever tasted…the salsa looked/tasted like ketchup, the guacamole looked/tasted 4 days old…even the chips and my soda were bad. truly could not pay me to eat there. i wish they were hire a new chef because the decor and location are great!

Good place. But I think we got there at quiet time. Food is tasty and price is decent. Good place to hangout as well. Boston garden is nearby. Had to work around getting the parking. But that is expected being in downtown. Dinner time should be more happening I suppose. I was expecting ruse and mashed beans with fajitas but this place does not serve it seems. But taste was good enough, no complaints abt that.

A lovely experience on the New Year’s Eve ?

Honestly don't know how this place is open in downtown Boston! Some of the worst food I've had in the last 10 years. If you're meeting friends there... Go anywhere else.I would give it 0 stars if I could.I'll just say the one star was for the mediocre service. ( They moved our big party to a smaller table to try and accommodate the size of the party ... Or maybe to make it look like there was more room so other people passing would stop in).Either way the food was bland and seemed to be microwaved or maybe steamed instead of grilled. I just really wouldn't recommend it.

Unfortunately I haven't had food that bad in a really long time. I hate to say it because the staff are nice (albeit did seem clueless at times, like moving our large party twice) it's a nice ambiance, and the drinks are decent BUT they really need to reevaluate their food. It's as bad as it gets. They microwave it, and they do not use any seasoning other than salt and pepper-- how do you not use chili powder, cumin, anything?? It's Mexican, it's an insult not to use flavor! The shrimp for the fajitas had an off smell and were served with the shells on, no char, they serve the fajitas in a cast iron skillet but clearly did not cook it in the skillet. The chicken had clearly been reheated from earlier-- dry and they didn't even shred it or cut it up, they were whole breast tenderloins dried out and no flavor-- the tortillas were not toasted or heated, they were raw flour tortillas-- yikes! The salsa is canned, the vegetables in the fajita looked microwaved/ previously frozen-- soggy and no char (can you imagine fajita vegetables that are soggy? Yuck). To whoever owns this place-- fire your chef and get a new menu / learn how to cook. You would have to know absolutely NOTHING about cooking to make food that bad. I can make better fajitas and tacos at home, it was such a waste of money. How do you open a restaurant with fajitas in the name and fail to learn how to hand make your own tortillas? Google a recipe it's not that hard-- you could be making the tortillas during morning prep, seriously learn about cooking. Anyone who serves a raw store-bought flour tortilla in a quesadilla of all things doesn't know how to cook at all. A microwaved quesadilla----come on, I'm embarrassed for you. Quesadillas are supposed to be grilled, everyone knows that (and the sour cream it was served with had gone bad). It scares me that people actually enjoy your food-- are there that many people out there with no pallette? I guess too many people eat fast food nowadays, I don't know. Anyways, sorry to be harsh but I was shocked at the level of disgusting that food was. I don't know how this place is still open , in downtown of all places. Between the off smell of the shrimp and the bad sour cream, Im sure the kitchen is dirty and I can only imagine how unclean the walk-in must be to not know you're serving things that went bad. I had to bite my tongue because I was there for a friend's birthday and didn't want to mess up his night by saying something, but I would have sent the food back if I had been there under other circumstances. Seriously, watch like 1 cooking show, start following chefs on insta, learn! Stop being a lazy chef that sucks.
