    Had a great time here. Great service, nice atmosphere and solid food. The tacos were fresh & flavorful; the enchiladas were good but nothing to really rave about; the très lèches was amazing! Also really enjoyed the drinks!

    Drinks were delicious. I can say, I have never had a pina colada like this one before... and it was PINK!

    Mex Taqueria & Bar is literally located in Technology Square area of Cambridge, MA where I grew up. Nice to finally see this area of Cambridge growing and thriving with eateries, restaurants, and more. It's been a very long time coming! The ambience at MT&B was wonderful. We booked our reservation for Valentine's Day, and was very surprised to be seated within 10 mins especially on a very busy evening. We were seated on the 3rd floor where we got to enjoy the views of the city in an intimate setting. Our waiter (soooo sorry I forgot his name) was knowledgeable, friendly and very accommodating with the questions we had, recommendations, and he checked in on us at perfect times to ensure we were okay. The food was delicious! The Esquite Street Corn was amazing, the Al Pastor tacos were yummy... and I absolutely LOVED the Mex Pina Colada. I had ordered the watermelon strawberry margarita first but didn't like but my daughter rather enjoyed. Our waiter was very accommodating -- and I can say, I have never had a pina colada like this one before... and it was PINK! Hats off the the chef, the waitstaff and the bartender. We really enjoyed our dining experience at Mex Taqueria & Bar and will definitely return again soon. We look forward to dining outside in the summer on your roof top. ( M )

    vibes are great, definitely make a reservation! Food came out super fast even though it was super busy. The margs were strong and had good specials. The guac and salsa were good but the queso was just melted cheese? It was thick and not at all queso consistency, not great. I personally got the birria tacos and they were mid as far as birria goes especially since the consume was thick like mole. But overall super good and great spot for large parties

    We only went for drinks, but we ordered a martini and a frozen mango margarita--both were absolutely amazing! Honestly, the drinks speak for themselves (just check the photo ). The vibe was great too. I highly recommend this spot if you're looking for good cocktails and a nice atmosphere!

    One of the best Mexican restaurants I've ever been to. Super kind hostess and amazingggg food.

    Obsessed! Omg I love this spot! I believe my husband and I got the chance to chat with the manager. We had a great chat and we were so excited he spoke Spanish which was so welcoming. The food? Amazing! I'm allergic to gluten so I was concerned about what I could eat. The guy who we spoke with mentioned that it was either his family member or the owners family member is celiac so there is a great selection of gluten free options! Lastly, the roof deck is so incredible. I love the seating and the view. This place is our go to date night.

    Grande burrito

    Make a reservation for 4 on a Sunday night. Not too crowded, we got seated right away. I think this is a good places for those who want to grab a drink and chat over the bar. Because they have a very nice liquors collection. It quite dark in the restaurant, with lights mainly from the bar section. I got a grande burrito and my friends got 3 different tacos. Everything was decent, expect lamb tacos. My friend said it was too dry. We also ordered a cheese corn appetizer, and that one bomb! So delicious that we ordered one more.

    Guacamole and chips

    I went here for the first time late on a Friday night with a group of 6 people. Since the place was busy, we had to wait a couple of minutes for an outside table. I was surprised to see that there was a similarly large group (more than 6) that was seated outside. I ordered the bowl with pollo asado. For the table, we ordered two guacamole dishes. The food came fairly quickly especially considering how many people were also seated in large groups outside. In the bowl that I had, the chicken was well cooked and was cut into small chunks. A couple of the friends I was with ordered the tacos, and while they enjoyed them, they mentioned that for what they were paying they felt that they expected more substance on the taco. Similarly, the guacamole was enjoyable, yet the chips were extremely crunchy to the point that they became difficult to chew at times. Overall, the food was excellent and made for an enjoyable meal, however I was surprised by the pricing and some small important details of the meal (such as the quality chips).

    Agave Wings and Hot Queso Dip

    Loved the vibe, liked the food. Mex is definitely the new celebration spot that this neighborhood was missing. The 3 story space is stunning, and I was lucky enough to sit on the rooftop after making an outdoor reservation, which was a nice surprise. Heads up that the music up there is pretty loud and there were lots of big groups drinking, which I was all about but keep in mind that it might not make the best family meal. Overall, the food was pretty tasty, but it was a bit hit or miss. Same goes for the cocktails. Our favorites included the La Piña marg, Agave wings (which were brought to our table by accident, but they let us keep them for free which is always nice!), Baja tacos, and Al pastor tacos. The Watermelon basil marg, piña colada, street corn and queso were nothing special, but with this place being so new, I have a feeling their menu will just keep improving. To sum it up, this place is really fun and is worth visiting even just for the vibes. 4 stars instead of 5 because the prices are reaaaal high for a slightly inconsistent menu, but I'll probably still be back :)

    Loving this addition to Kendall square. I've come here for a few happy hours and it's been great. The rooftop is so cute! We usually order margaritas and cocktails. All have been good but I will not say this is the best drink spot. It's convenient and has a nice ambiance so that is why it's worth checking out! Food wise we have ordered a lot of things and they are only alright. Maybe I'm spoiled but these tacos do not stand a chance against authentic mexican tacos. Anyways the elote is good, the nachos are meh, and the octopus tacos are great but $19 for 2. Highly recommend coming early to grab a table on the rooftop if you are meeting a group of people. Service is good here and we've never been rushed.

    The tequila selection here is very impressive so this would be a great place to go if you like tequila. You get to customize the type of tequila they add to your margaritas! I came with a group of 4 to have some drinks and snacks. We got the chips and guacamole ($12), charred street corn off the cob ($13), a pitcher of the hibiscus margarita ($56), and a good number of their churro shots ($7 each). I liked how we could choose which tequila to have in our margarita and have the options of salt, sugar, or Tajin on the rim of our cups. The margarita itself had a nice balance of sweet and tart flavors while the tequila shone through. The churro shots tasted like chocolate milk-- if you're a fan of sweet, creamy cocktails then this is a must try. While the alcohol was good, the food was quite underwhelming. The guacamole came with massive slices of scallions which added freshness and crunch to the guac but couldn't make up for how underseasoned the guac was. The portion size of guac was also super tiny for $12! The charred street corn was creamy but forgettable. It didn't taste very charred, which to me is the best part of getting elote.

Plus they had other options, including tostadas, bowls, tamales, burritos, you name it. When we arrived, there were people inside eating. We stopped to look at the menu before ordering, and were greeted by a very friendly man who made the experience more enjoyable. I ordered a tostada with steak, onions, cilantro, a little sour cream, green verde sauce, lettuce, and refried beans. It was my first time trying one so so was really excited. I also ordered two cheese pupusas, which I ended up taking to go with me. My boyfriend ordered a bowl with chicken and various toppings. My tostada was delicious. The crunchy tortilla paired with fresh steak and all the juices from the onion and cilantro paired so nicely together. The ingredients seemed very fresh. We were gonna take this to go, but we decided to dine in. The same gentleman ended up checking in on us half way through the meal to see how we were doing. I thought this was really nice. His name is Chef Noe and he was telling us that he is the head chef for this restaurant. He was glad we enjoyed our meal and it was a pleasure talking to him. Overall I think the spot is well placed as it is right near Leslie university in Harvard so I think it's a good spot for students to come or if you're local like us. It's quick but it has quality. Its fast food but it's fresh. That's what I liked about it. It's all prepared in house and the flavors are great. The decor is also cute inside, very colorful and I thought it was creative that they up-cycled Jarittos bottles into flower vases. Definitely check out the spot when you're in Cambridge and you won't be disappointed.

I really need to remember to look online before choosing my order in the future (or so I thought). While the tacos still look incredible (especially the birria ones), the torta was surprisingly great as well. The sandwich is jam packed with ingredients and really well balanced. The beef was juicy and tender, and the veggies added a really nice balance of spice (jalapenos), freshness (onions, lettuce, and tomatoes), and richness (cheese and avocadoes). The refried beans were a pleasant surprise as well, adding really good moisture and flavor to the overall bite. And including avocado on the torta for no extra cost really is what put this above and beyond to a 5/5 - the avocado was ripe and had just the right amount of it to add that rich and fatty element without being too slippery and making it hard to eat. The fries, on the other hand, were a bit soggy and thick for my liking. I had seen another photo on Yelp where they looked a lot crispier and were shaped differently, so not sure if I just got unlucky, but the sandwich more than made up for the fries in this case. I really can't say enough positive things about the torta. And even though the torta was fantastic and I gave it a 5/5, I definitely want to come back for those tacos. Three tacos plus rice for $18 is a pretty great deal, and the tacos really look incredible. My partner ordered a tongue, al pastor, and fish taco and while I didn't try them, they looked and smelled incredible. We will definitely be back!
