This unique mexican experience only serves healthy and totally fresh sauces, marinades, and traditional mexican dishes. Every item on the menu is made daily using fresh ingredients, making Boca Grande a huge step above Taco Bell. An order of enchiladas--fresh corn tortillas filled with cheese and a choice of grilled chicken, pork, steak or vegetables plus refried beans and rice--is truly a meal in itself. Best of all, everything on the menu costs less than $4, including a huge basket of crunchy tortilla chips with freshly mashed guacamole.

Brooks caters to all your basic drugstore needs. If you're a fan of dirt cheap storebrand items, be warned that Brooks, unlike CVS, carries none. Film developing is cheaper here than at CVS in the Square (next-day standard developing $8/24 exp., $11/36; free film or second set of prints).

This content is questionable.
The last edit to this page said things like "Best in the Boston area". Although it very well may be, that kind of glowing speech is more fitting for a review, while informative content is more fitting for the business description.

Formerly known as Hollywood Expresso (as it is next door to the similarly named video store), this charming local coffeeshop is everything the Starbucks down the street isn't. Art hangs from the funky-colored walls, and the staff plays rotations of local and national bands. Simon's is one of the best coffeeshops in the Boston area when it comes to training baristas. Not surprisingly, the staff places great emphasis on the quality of their beverages, and the selection is surprisingly large for such a small shop: try the espresso drinks are masterfully crafted, and there are a great deal of other non-coffee options as well like chai and Italian sodas. Complement your drink with a fresh sandwich (tuna, hummus, turkey, etc.; $5.50), delicious pastries, or one of the 2 daily soups. One caveat: the small number of tables makes it sometimes difficult to find seating during busy hours.
