Lone Star Taco Bar

Prepare to wait and be jostled while you do. Lone Star attracts hordes of Allston students happy for $4 tacos and a plethora of under-$10 accompaniments: grilled street corn, refried bean tostadas and huevos rancheros. The hand-made masa harina corn tortillas make a difference, as does the slow-cooked pork carnitas and mesquite-smoked beef barbacoa. Potent tequila cocktails include the oddball-but-delicious Hombre sin Nombre (Blanco tequila, Peychaud’s bitters, mole bitters, agave, Chartreuse).
