Burned-out El Pelon vows to return to Fenway
By adamg on Wed, 02/24/2010 - 4:58pm
Even as he opens a new restaurant in Brighton, the owner of El Pelon vows to return to Peterborough Street in the Fenway.
James Hoben is planning a March 15 opening for a new El Pelon at 2197 Comm. Ave., across from BC. In a statement, he says he remains committed to re-opening on Peterborough Street, but says that's at least a year away. The owner of the burned-down building recently submitted plans to replace it with a five-story mixed-use building, including a hotel.

I hope so... El Pelon was a great restaurant. Hopefully the BRA and other Menino thugs won't prevent them coming back.
I was expecting them to move to Cambridge or Somerville
Close enough to Boston without being in Boston.
I wish them success. I ate there on a regular basis while doing some work in the Fenway a couple years ago. Great, great stuff.

i can't wait for the return of overdone burritos that take way too long to make! YES!!!
And I can't wait...
to hear yet another troll let white guilt prevent him from enjoying a burrito. I always love hearing the gringos critique Mexican food.
That was never my experience.
That was never my experience. I ate there 3 times over a couple of years and thought it was fantastic.

I think you are mistaken
Best burritos ever! I have missed their delightful goodness and I welcome their return!
