Delicious, quick Mexican fare -- rice plates, burritos, and quesadillas are all excellent. Recommend trying Jamaica if you have not -- and their rice pudding is outta-sight.
They also make breakfast burritos in the mornings.

Jewish-Inspired Deli and caterer in Inman Square, operating since 1919. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served 7 days a week. The closest thing to a New York style deli in the Boston area. Not surprisingly, the Reuben is the house favorite. Potato knish and matzo ball soup are also delicious on a cold day. I always order the S&S Boneless wings -- their secret sauce is to die for.
