Mexican Restaurants near Newtonville

“Nathan Parham, the manager saved the dinner tonight. One of my twin was not happy about his food and refused to eat and Nathan was very quick to remake his dinner to saved the day. We appreciate his customer service skills. This is the leadership we are grateful to witness. Thank you and your hard working staff at this location. We come here at least twice a week for dinner!“

“Food was fast and cooked to perfection. The tortillas come out warm and fresh. We had just about every taco they had, you can't go wrong with any of them. Service was fast and friendly. Loved every bit of this place. Get the churros, you won't be upset.“

“Went to the Jamaica Plains location. Very friendly staff, food was ready quickly and tasty. 10/10 recommend.“

“The food is great. I always get the taco special. The ingredients are fresh.
The only downside is the waiting area. You are packed like sardines in line to place or pick up an order.
I would definitely suggest calling ahead and placing an order for takeout over the phone.
There are a few tables for sit-down dining but the room is very tight and crowded.“

“Great food but lately El Jefe's is taking a hit on bad reviews due to @GrubHub's poor ordering system with algorithm issues which I have brought to their attention, and seems they still haven't fixed since I placed an order months prior. On 3 separate occasions on the same date and time I received my order incorrect. When I compared the order from my GrubHub account against the receipt received from El Jefe's, it was determined I was missing many items from my burrito bowl. I contacted GrubHub in which they kept refunding me, and I also mentioned the issue. I ordered El Jefe's 2 more times and the same error occurred both times. I could see once they mess up the order due to reading it wrong but not 3x. El Jefe's only puts an order together based on the ordering slips they receive from GrubHub, so if something is off with GrubHub's ordering system that is what the restaurant is receiving and thus creating the order from. As much as these food delivery services are ripping off these restaurants, they got a nerve to make the restaurant take accountability for their mess ups and ordering errors. They're already scamming these vendors out of $$$ and continue to affect these companies in a negative manner. Time for these vendors to go back to the old delivery ways and cut the greedy middle man! These good delivery services are a total rip off with their high fees, whacked discounts that don't add up, and lack of customer service.“

“I just had the hottest meal I’ve ever had. The waiter said “That is very very spicy”…I told him to say “very” three times to warn customers. The meal was AWESOME!!! Thank you 👍“

“Patzcuaros is literally the best Mexican place I have been around the Boston area. Tacos are always fresh and delicious and the Margaritas are the best I have ever taste in the whole state of Massachusetts. This is coming from someone that has tried many, if not all Mexican restaurants around the area. One of my favorite restaurants in the area. Also, the service is always on top. Bravo! Please, keep the same energy and quality.“

“Best authentic Mexican food“

“Great experience this past weekend. It was a busy Saturday night. We ate at the bar which it seems like lots of locals do that. Plenty of space at the bar to eat. Bartender was great. Drinks were epic. Food was so good! Will definitely come back. Thank you to the hostess for fitting us in. She was a doll.“

“Looking for dinner options along Moody Street and this was an easy choice. I've been to Dallas and had a fun evening in their Deep Ellum neighborhood so why would I skip the opportunity to try it again.

Lots of options here, considering we have meat eaters, pescatarians and kosher eaters in the group tonight. We started off with a plate of their pickles and they were fabulous. With it, beers! Including a draft German beer for me and a tin of a non-alcoholic for Mrs. K.

For main, I chose the Italian sandwich and it was fabulous. Well loaded and very tasty if perhaps a little messy. But that's what napkins are for. Mrs. K. chose the grilled cheese and said it was excellent.

Great service here and we had a fabulous evening. Five stars!“

“Warm hospitality you’d expect from a Cheers-like neighborhood bar where the staff knows your name & greets you with a smile Kudos to Jonathan for his kindness & recommending the Torta“

“Fantastic food and atmosphere! 10/10 would recommend.“

“We are ecstatic that Quillos is in East Arlington! The food has the look and taste of a home cooked Mexican meal! We feel nourished by their food.“

“La Victoria has long been a go-to option if I need a quick and affordable lunch option, but this past week I got catering platters from them for the Friday night dinner for our out of town guests for my son's bar mtizvah. Everything was delicious, and it was easy for people to mix and match what they wanted to eat -- a real benefit for feeding a crowd. Alex at La Victoria made the ordering process easy! We will definitely do this again!!“

“Consistently great food! Best sangria and margaritas around! Love the staff, love the environment. We’ve been going there for years! I highly recommend.“

“Wooooow! Wife and I are visiting from SC and both agreed that we’d turn into regulars here if we lived in Boston. The birria was maybe the best I’ve ever had, guac was so fresh, and the service was excellent. We have Abuela’s marked on our map for our next visit to Boston, we’ll be back!!!“

“the best mexican food“

“The New Crash Test Dummies and Dorilocos!!!!“

“Not sure if the opinion of a very pasty Mainer counts for much;but the tacos and guacamole were the best we have ever had! Food was great and the service was phenomenal! We had the sweetest waitress! Will be back as soon as possible! ❤️❤️“

“Had one of the greatest birthday dinners here! We had a large group for Mucho Monday, and it did not disappoint. They accommodated my allergy to alliums, and they even made a special watermelon margarita (off-menu) just fie us! 10/10 would highly recommend.“

“The birria tacos where so good can’t wait to come back and they have really good service!!! 5 stars!!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Our law firm had a great meal here with excellent service and food. It's a good spot for business lunches or client meetings.“

“Delicious food along with wonderful Moroccan hospitality. My first time in Boston from the UK. I came to eat after Friday prayers and loved every minute of the experience. I ordered a kebab wrap then was given Harira to try. All of it delicious. I highly recommend this place in every way!“

“I’ve overlooked this place for far too long! Everything I ordered was delicious!! And not too expensive either.“

“One of the top taco spots in Boston. You can see them make their own tortillas in the store, and so far everything I've tried from asada, to lengua to birria has been delicious.

FYI if you carry cash you get a discount!“

“Good Food and Good Vibe my favorite thing of Mexico lindo is the tacos al pastor the sangria and the fried ice cream 😍😋👍👏🏻👏🏻💯💯“

“I LOVE Yucatan Tacos! The taco shell salad is so good! I also love the quesadillas and burritos. I’ve been coming here for years and it’s always the best food!“

“Outstanding! Great food and drinks, we are regulars. We took friends from the mid-west, and they said Margaritas was the best Mexican restaurant in the U.S.A.“

“Great food, friendly atmosphere. Veggie Enchiladas and Blood orange margarita…highly recommend!“

“The food was so delicious and the margaritas were the best. But the night was really topped off with having such an amazing server. Ask for Gilly. If ever in Boston make this a must!“

“The food here is delicious!!!!! 100/10. When you get that little bite of plantain, chicken tinga , rice and black bean, perfection! I absolutely recommend.“

“1. Ordering from the mobile app is so easy and efficient.2. Our order was ready for pickup before the suggested time.3. Upon entering the store, the crew member greeted and helped us with the pickup right away.4. Our order was accurate and well-packed. The bowl was delicious and comforting! The loaded tortillas soup bowl is my all time favorite!!“

“Their AL Pastor tacos are excellent my goto.“

“fajas texanas son buenas“

“Came to Boston for a convention for my son and came across this restaurant. No lie the best burrito and carnitas I have ever had!!!! Will definitely be back“

“Delicious huevos rancheros! The plantains were a little too over cooked and would have more beans but they were absolutely delicious. I have also come for lunch and have tried their quesadillas as well which were also delicious. It is pricey and it’s a set amount of items per order, like minimum 2 tacos etc, so I don’t frequent. I find myself going to Tenoch Mexican more often because of flexibility in terms of ordering items separately etc.“

“Excellent food and service“

“Wonderful food as always. Very authentic and always the best! Thank you Tu y Yo!“

“This was the best Mexican restaurant i have ever been too. Classic margarita was amazing, 3 different tacos and the skirt steak with fresh quacmole, beans and rice. The 3 sauces with chips were delish“

“One of my dad and I’s favorite places to go in Somerville. Food is always excellent and so is the service! The owner is very welcoming and always recognizes us when we stop in :) Today I couldn’t remember what I usually get but he remembered, and also gave my dad some good recommendations of something new to get. Thank you!!“

“Lockheart offers delicious, affordable food. Appetizers include yummy street corn and sliders (three perfect little cheese burgers). Great variety of their gourmet tacos. Their guacamole is fabulous. Always excellent, friendly service. Efficient and kind staff! Great eating at tables or booths or having food and drinks at the bar. The two TV screens at the bar often show sports with the sound off.“

“Came from Georgia to visit and I absolutely loved the environment. All the waiters were great and drinks were good too. The guacamole was to die for as well as the chips. I come from a Mexican town and this place was on spot, I felt very welcomed. They also had a Banda which was great.“

“First time visiting. We visit a lot of Mexican restaurants in and around the North Shore, and have our favorites. This is for sure a new favorite for us. The customer service at the location in Malden was excellent, our waitress was so polite, personable, and the right amount of attentive. The restaurant was spotless, I mean, SPOTLESS, including the restroom. The rest of the staff checked in, and the food was excellent.“

“I absolutely loved this place! Generous food portions, attentive and very accommodating staff, wonderful atmosphere. They also have a plethora of assorted hot sauces waiting for you at their side table. I wish I lived closer to Boston… I’d be there weekly if not every other day! A wonderful place to enjoy an afternoon snack or a full dinner near the Boston Museum (a few blocks away).“

“Cool place , I love the music and the service“

“Thank you Mr. Paulo and the team for the wonderful service over the weekend. In a restaurant as busy as this location is, to be remembered by the staff is seriously next level and I'll always be happy to venture into town for this specific location.“
