“Had my first visit to Bootleg Special last night and it did not disappoint. Every aspect of the meal, from the creative drinks to the delicious appetizers to the fantastic main course was outstanding. Our server, Alex, was attentive and very pleasant. And last, but certainly not least, the beignets after dinner were spectacular. Looking forward to my next visit!“

“The Cajun sauce is phenomenal. Fresh seafood and big portions. Good place to hangout w friends and family. High recommended. ❤️“

“Highly recommended! Best food in a bag that I’ve ever had!“

“This place is incredibly kind and friendly. We dined in this restaurant on the last day (July 31, 2026) we stayed at Harvard university during my daughter's summer internship period. I accidentally broke my whole glass of Hurricane drink, and my left hand was cut and bleeding, the staff extremely cared about me by providing band-aids and medication, as well as replacing my drink with a free glass of Hurricane.“

“1st time here. Have driven by hundreds of times......not sure what I was thinking....it took figuring out that you can't get Alaskan King crab legs at Legal Seafoods to force me to try this place out. Took an order to go. A+ yes messy....very messy the middle Hot sauce was excellent and everywhere. Good fun. Shared as an appetizer and we all agree Good stuff. They have "All you can Eat" on Sat and Sun I believe for $30 so a great deal. We will try again. Tiny place maybe 10-12 tables so use OpenTable. I tried Boston they did not have anything for 3-4 days at 7pm. Also had a Brookline reservation. There are ~24 locations in 8-10 states.“

“Although this place no longer exists in the heart of Harvard Square, which was the mother location, sadly closed after the pandemic but two other locations have remained open one in Burlington and one in saugus. Always agree time and very accommodating to larger parties. Free chips and salsa and refills aren't necessarily something that every restaurant does anymore and if you're looking for a simple fun and tasty snack on meal this place is worth it. Fans of country music and blues music will love this place because they have been loyal to the music they've been playing over there sound system the last 30 some odd years. There's really no other Mexican / Cajun restaurant like the Border Cafe so if you ever on route 1 or find yourself in Burlington Mass or want to make the trip, if anything it's definitely a fun place to go.“

“Had the mussels and shrimp boil with potatoes, broccoli, and corn on the cob! Don't forget the mai tai and mojito! Everything was amazing! The service was friendly and fast!!“

“The people are very friendly and kind. I needed to wait for a few hours until I could get into my AirBnb and they let me stay warm and cozy until I could go in. The only reason it's not 5 starts is because they food is not of my taste (taste is VERY subjective) and the door isn't the best letting all the heating go away as soon as someone comes in or out.“

“this place is awesome!!! food is super fresh and the staff is just amazing l love this place“

“Went there for dinner, ordered chicken and steak fajitas and fish tacos. Fish tacos were excellent with all sorts of vegetables, the fish inside was fried to perfection, the sauce was excellent. The fajitas were a little too salty, but the steak was very tender and grilled perfectly. The chicken was juicy and also grilled perfectly. Ordered a Gumbo for appetizer, but they brought it to us as the entree sized portion, when I told them that I had ordered the Gumbo as an appetizer, they immediately sent it back to the kitchen, and brought us an appetizer sized Gumbo. Overall, a decent experience, will come again!“

“Chicken tender fans! Cajun flavor fans! This place came highly recommended and did not disappoint. These are the BEST chx tenders I've had outside of Raising Cain's since moving back up north from Hattiesburg, MS. The chicken is 100% fresh and 100% flavorful. It's a truck stop favorite so you know it's got to be good and priced okay.Pick up a lunchtime scratch ticket with your tenders. You might get lucky with the scratch ticket but at least you're already winning with the tenders.“
