"What a great reception, all the people cried Who stole the groom and who stole the bride How did the countess slide underneath the door Why is the wild boy chopping up the floor?" (Richard Thompson) No doubt, our always perceptive Yelpers have figured out the link between Condesa and the lyrics - Condesa = Contessa in Spanish. Condesa has four locations in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. The Sturbridge location is on the extreme left side of a big shopping plaza -look for the Shaw's Market and Ocean State Job Lot. The first thing you'll notice when you walk inside is the Día de (los) Muertos (Day of the Dead) artwork pretty much everywhere on the walls. They have two indoor dining rooms and a covered outdoors dining area, where we had our lunch on a beautiful summer day. Our server Moises was polite and friendly and started us off with a big portion of complimentary ships and salsa. The chips were fresh and still warm and the mildly spiced salsa was excellent. Our lunch was a TACO SALAD ($14) described on the menu as "Grilled chicken, mixed greens, fire roasted corn, Pico de Gallo, cilantro vinaigrette, queso fresco, and tortilla strips". It was served in one of those ubiquitous fried tortilla shells which I would have declined had I known it. I passed on the vinaigrette in favor of that great salsa for my dressing, and declined the queso, and tortilla strips. The grilled chicken was absolutely fantastic. It was pounded so thin, it had ended up being about the same size as the bowl it was served in. And whatever they used to season it was wonderful! Under that blanket of chicken were fresh greens, and a few sprinkles of corn and Pico. Adding their salsa as a dressing made it a winner of a meal. My wife ordered their CHICKEN QUESADILLA ($14). The four big wedges had a generous portion of grilled chicken and cheese, topped with sour cream, queso fresco, and Pico de Gallo. I sampled a forkful and loved the flavor and noticed a pretty generous layer of cheese in with the chicken. My club soda with two lemon wedges was $3. Service from Moises was OK, he was super pleasant when we interacted with us and when we asked for a water and salsa refill. All in all, our $33 after tax-before tip lunch was perfectly fine.
Amazing Mexican food spot. The menu isn't overwhelmingly large with options, which we appreciated. The salsa was refreshing and they gave me extra spicy salsa when I asked. The food was flavorful and came out very quickly. We were very impressed with the decor and service.
Food was delicious and came out quickly and hot! Birria tacos are so flavorful. Veggie tacos good too. Generous chips and salsa starter. Service was friendly and we didn't feel rushed. Pulling up, was confused because it's in a strip mall but was very pleasantly surprised. And the ambiance outside on a summer night can't be beat!
Went to Condesa in Sturbridge for a fundraiser supporting the Tantasqua Performing Arts students. We started with chips & salsa, then ordered the street corn -- definitely my favorite dish of the night! My friends had the shrimp tacos and avocado salad, while I went with the enchiladas. We wrapped up the meal by sharing the churros, which came with a delicious blueberry ice cream.
Wow! I never know we had such a great Mexican restaurant right in Sturbridge. And the were open on a Monday! The food, service and ambiance were stellar!
Was in the area with the hubby as he was in town for a work event for the week and we decided to try it out. Despite the location and in a Strip mall this place had a really good vibe & atmosphere, Service was great, Manager was super welcoming, friendly and a constant presence the whole night (In a good way) Food was great, options were plenty, Portions were great. Drinks were great. The Fajitas were fresh, the rice was delish & the Garlic shrimp was super flavorful, will definitely visit again when back in the area! Worth a stop in!
Selfishly I want to keep this to myself. But I do love the food. The restaurant is clean. The service is excellent. I will be back.
Visually this restaurant is very fun and festive with quirky dio de Los muertos art. Very spacious. And there's bar seating. So walking in there's definitely a wow-factor. Service was nice, helpful, and consistent without being overbearing. The food.. was mediocre. It seems like they were trying to elevate dishes with unnecessary ingredients, where it may have been trying to disguise taste. Tamales were dry and had little filling. Red rice was bland. Enchiladas were coated in a strange green sauce that was too pungent.. the only thing we really enjoyed were the chips, salsa & guac. Pricing was about $30 each with tip.
Stumbled upon Condesa as we were near Hartford one day. Let me start of by saying this place is huge, tons of seating everywhere and lot of decor on the walls ect, definitely gives off the Mexican vibes which I like. They start you off with chips and salsa which I repeat should be normalized. Chips were a little thicker almost the size of a Dorito, salsa was delicious, lots of flavor and a good starter. My wife started off with the tortilla soup which I also helped her with, very good. Had small pieces of cheese that went with the soup and was topped with chips, definitely a go to. For my entree I went with the Barbacoa tacos. Also I read from other Yelp review they had a homemade Habanero sauce which they did, let me tell you it had a good kick and excellent flavor, I even took the rest of it home since it was that good. My tacos were good size, slightly fatty pieces from the barbacoa but well seasoned. Could have used some fresh cilantro and maybe a lime to spruce it up. That was my wife's complaint with her pork carnitas as well, she still enjoyed them. Service was good, overall we would return!
Wow talk about 180 degree turn a round for the worse. The salsa used to be decent. Today it is either bottled or canned. The guacamole is also store bought (chunky avocado) with a whipped consistency and zero flavor. The menu changed; losing many tasty dishes. We ordered fried fish tacos that were so small; McDonalds snack wraps would tower over these fish nuggets (see photos). Overall, the experience was underwhelming and would certainly discourage us from ever returning. You can do so much better going to Mexicali.
My MIL loves everything Mexican. Food, decor, everything. So I decided to take her to Condesa for lunch. The restaurant is very deceiving from the outside. It's in a strip mall way at the end and looks small from the outside. But it's very large when you come in, and they have a nice outdoor seating area under a roof so you don't get baked by the sun. The decor is not your typical Mexican restaurant decor with Talavera. It's modern with neon lighting, concrete and metal and Day of the Dead themed, which wasn't appreciated by my MIL. The host and hostess were very nice. The chips and salsa arrived first. The chips were warm and the salsa was thick. It was very good, I am celiac, so I asked if the chips were gluten-free, and was assured that they were. My MIL loves her strawberry margarita so she ordered one. It did t come in a traditional margarita glass and she was disappointed. She said the margarita was OK. Too much ice. My MIL had the Cameron's Al Ajilo. She said it was good. Not great. I had the Sopes with chicken and steak. They were different. Good but a little boring. I added some of the salsa from the chips and it was a little better. I wouldn't order it again. The cornmeal flatbreads were thick and heavy. They overpowered the rest of the toppings. For dessert, my ML had churros which came with blueberry ice cream and dipping sides. She said it was very good. I ordered the flan as it was gluten-free. Was a big slice. Very creamy and delicious. If you're in the storage area and want to try something different, Condessa is good. Very clean and very nice staff.

We stopped in for brunch at Condesa. The venue is quite large with outdoor seating and a bar area. The decor was very tasteful, festive and inviting. The staff was very friendly and attentive. And the food was great. The flavors were on point. We really liked the california burrito and street corn. The portions were large, too. We were just passing through. But if we're in the area again, we will definitely be back. read more
Came here after visiting Old Sturbridge Village and it did not disappoint. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with interesting designs and decorations. It already gives a great first impression. Service is quick and the restaurant is very clean. The chips and salsa are the usual for what you expect with warm chips and refreshing salsa. The Pollo Al Pastor is a good size with amazing pineapple pico de gallo and nicely marinated chicken. You get only three tortillas so you mostly eat the dish with fork and knife after making tacos. read more

This place is a hidden gem! First time there on 11/3. The margaritas are excellent! My wife and I both had tacos. I had the El Pastor, and my Wife had the chicken, both very tasty. We have to go back to try all the other items on the menu. read more
This place is SO DELICIOUS!!!! The guacamole is a must-have, they make it fresh, right when you order it. The drinks are to die for! The combinations of fresh fruit juices make mocktails a joy too! The food is delicious, clearly labeled gluten-free options, and if they say it's not spicy, even a spice wimp like myself can agree it is not spicy. read more

OK so I'm gonna say what we were all thinking- this area desperately needed a new restaurant and watering hole ! So for that, we will gladly welcome Condesa and couldn't wait to get in there to try it after seeing the redevelopment of the old space all summer long. Such a vibrant and open space with wonderfully curated decor for with walls perfect for group photos or selfies and hand blown glass chandeliers made of hearts! Lovely and definitely not the boring traditional Mexican restaurant design so kudos for that ! Say at the bar and gladly so because Alicia is probably the bartender that not o let this establishment ordered - but the town of Sturbridge- holy GOD she made us the most INCREDIBLE margaritas - even for me who can't have anything has it is on the menu and asks for extra this or none of that - she was spot on each time and even suggested different kinds of tequila I honestly would never have tried if she hadn't. I then found out she's a CERTIFIED tequila sommelier ! THIS IS THE SPOT for a marg people. Ask for her !!! I'm telling ya. All the dehydrated fruit and lighting of the bar area (plus tvs!) added to the amazing ambiance. It was hard to pick a a dish and I had my eyes set on several of their homemade specialties ( I'm gonna tell you now - they have one with chipotle seasoned mashed potatoes?? What?! Amazing - go there and find it on the menu yourself!) but I sent with a taco salad just to get my feet wet my partner had birria tacos and we both shared some rice and refrained black beans that seriously had me singing they were so good. Great taco salad - the sauce on my chicken was so incredibly good I could taste fresh pineapple and tamarind in it. A welcomed surprise. The birria was also delectable- I mean this may be one of the best things to order at a Mexican place. Chips are amazing and salsa was smoky and deep with flavor. I wish I had a bigger stomach but I still ordered churros with ZERO regrets - my goodness they put it together with raspberry/strawberry ice cream and it was the PERFECT sweet treat to end dinner. Ok that's enough I sound like a lunatic. But I'll be back for those taters. read more

After traveling from Portland, we were looking for a take out dinner to enjoy at our airbnb. Condesa did NOT disapppint. My chicken burrito was huge as was the portion of steak fajitas my husband ordered. And so good. After coming from Portland where the prices were ridiculously high and portions small, we finally felt we got a delicous meal at a reasonable price. The menu is quite extensive so there is something for everyone. So if you're looking for a tasty meal, stop by. read more

5 star all the way. We were looking for a central location for a group of us coming from Eastern mass and Western mass and pick this place. So glad one of the best Mexican places we've ever been to. What a fabulous menu the food was awesome and the margaritas were top-notch! And what a great staff always on top of it very accommodating. Highly recommended! read more
