About
El Pelón is a casual, lively Boston College-area taqueria known for foil-wrapped burritos, quesadillas, and Mexican street-food flavors. Vegan cheese can be added to several dishes, but one recent reviewer found the advertised vegan tamale to be plain masa with no filling, so check with staff before ordering it.
