BuenoMalo, Andover
The soft flour tortillas at this Mexi-Cali spot are overstuffed to the point where it’s hard to wrap your fingers around one, never mind your mouth. So, grab the fish taco with both hands—crispy battered cod with cabbage, pico de gallo, and secret house-made Baja sauce. Other options like the fried chicken and steak are equally satisfying, and vegetarians will be pleased to find several choices—including a carb-delight stuffed with tater tots. 93 Main St. (interior courtyard), Andover, 978-409-2119, buenomalo.com
