Had a solid lunch sitting outside. Vibe: Inside was pretty dark, we sat outside, bordering on the parking lot behind the restaurant. Service: Drinks and food came out pretty quickly. Drinks: We got horchata which we've never tried before and it was delicious! Also got the agua de jamaica which was sweet and flavorful. Food: The chips and sauce which were good. The guacamole was solid. The ceviche and meat in the tacos al pastor were not my favorite but overall both dishes were good. Accessibility: There is a paid parking lot just behind the restaurant. Had a great lunch and especially enjoyed the drinks, would go back. read more

The salsa and the guacamole were really good (the guac was kind of expensive though). They definitely had a distinct flavor from other guac and salsa I've had. My marg and entree were really mediocre, leaning more towards bad. The flavor was just not there and tasted super bland, also tasted a lot like bbq sauce?? Service was really good though. They comped my friend's dessert because it was her bday :) read more

I had the chicken tortilla soup and an agua Fresca. The soup was comforting and very filling and the drink was refreshing.

Met 2 friends on a rainy Friday for fantastic Mexican food. Chips and guacamole to start, then I had the sauteed haddock, arroz y veggies, margarita and tres leches. Excelente!! Great atmosphere and nice wait staff!! read more

I love Ole; one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area. We came here with some friends and they ways mention it.

Stopped into this location when I was in town for work, showing a student Harvard. After I gave them choices about food types, she picked ole. We made our way over and were seated promptly, I loved the salsa, it was unique and flavorful. I had a mezcal margarita, and for my main course I had some very savory mushroom quesadillas! All around great experience, if I'm ever back in the area I would visit again! read more

Ole was in the holiday spirit with plenty of lights and a Christmas tree when you walk in. Good music was playing and the staff was friendly. I went with a couple of friends and everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. Would recommend! read more

If there are any west coasters reading this who grew up eating at Chevy's, this place fills that Chevy's void in my heart. Their dine-in menu is full of Tex Mex classics like enchiladas, tacos, and when I visited, a sizzling plate of fajitas. I decided to go for their chiles rellenos ($19) with pork. I also tried their horchata ($3.5). I thought the food was tasty. The food was hot, the seasonings were balanced, and everything went well together. The rice was on the softer side and the pico de gallo/lettuce side was a little plain, but overall the food was very comforting. I would recommend getting the horchata, which wasn't too sweet and had a lot of cinnamon flavor. If not dining in, they also have a separate take-out counter with more of a Chipotle-style concept. It also seems like a lot of people come here for their alcoholic drinks. read more

Such an underrated casual, convenient spot. Really love sitting at this bar for a quick bite and a beer. In a pinch? Order a burrito online ahead and they're delicious. Way better than the typical takeout joints. This is a weekly pit stop for kind dine-in service or quick takeout. Staff is always friendly and efficient! Solid margs! read more

Ole is a great spot to go to when you want a good and fast burrito. Although they operate as a restaurant, they have a take-out menu as well where you can customize your own burrito, burrito bowl, or nachos, etc. Each burrito is packed with a good amount of flavor. They have a pretty good variety of meats, beans, toppings, and sauces. Their food is always solid, and I love how they give you free chips and salsa as well to accompany your food. I am always left craving more chips and salsa afterward. I also enjoy getting their churros. They are generously sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. Whenever i am craving a consistent quality burrito, i always come back to Ole. I only come here for take-out, so I can not say too much of the menu they serve to those who dine in. read more

I came with a group of ten and was happy to get a reservation that large at the last minute on a Sunday. I ordered the chicken mole enchiladas, which were solid in themselves, although the rice was ever so slightly dry for me and the beans were pretty tasteless, alas. I enjoyed the Agua de Jamaica and found that they have a pretty good beverage menu. Unlike some places nearby, the chips and salsa are both very good. However, the tres leches cake was dry--not terrible, but dry, which is unfortunate. It's one of the few dishes where you want them to make it the day before so the milks can absorb into the sponge cake. All that said, our server was friendly and we had great conversation. On the whole, I'm not running back to Olé but would choose it over some other places. read more

Was able to get a reservation for 8 outside which was really nice! We were seated outside on the patio which was a little chilly. It was very busy and the service was a little slow. Our waitress was really nice but she was just overworked with too many tables. I thought the prices were a little expensive for the food we got. The food was good but the 3 tacos were about $16 and were not very filling. The taste was great just wish there was more food. The chips and salsa were good. Overall I don't think I would need to come back but glad we were all able to eat together as a group. read more

Disclaimer: I only did takeouts from this restaurant. Decent Mexican place in town for good price and great selection of dishes. We order here when we crave Mexican food from time to time, they are always quick (usually takes about 10 minutes for 4 servings of food) and foods taste great! I personally like their chicken burritos and nachos a lot, and their churros always taste amazing! I hope they do chimichanga some time! read more

A great place and a really fun environment to be in! Staff are very welcoming and kind and the food was very good. The salsa that comes with the chips are absolutely delicious! And I highly recommend the enchiladas. read more

Ordered the salsa Jalisco which came as truly 85% onion - it was later in the night and I like to think they just ran out of ingredients and don't normally serve it this way, but could've told me since it's $10. I love salsa and will eat almost any salsa put in front of me so this saddened me. Drinks were good at the bar! read more

When you order spicy food at Ole, its no joke. They mean SPICY! We sat outdoors in the patio, which was really nice. We started off with a pitcher of spicy mango margarita. The "hint of habanero" was not just a hint, it was overpowering. I had to drink my cocktails in small sips because it was so spicy. We started off with chips and guac, the guac was prepared table-side so it was very fresh. It was good. I also ordered the tacos cancun which consisted of 3 tacos with rare Ahi tuna. The tacos were spicy as well. Everytime I took a bit of spicy taco, I had to drink something so I drank the spicy margarita, which didn't help much. If you love spicy foods, you will love it here. If you don't have a high tolerance, choose your drinks and dishes wisely. read more

Olé - Tuna Tacos Cancun - Mexican Near Me - Cambridge, Massachusetts

Food was really tasty and well done, And the service was efficient and quick even though it was crowded. We were 2 people at a 4 person table and while it was loud we could hear each other and had a nice meal. Wouldn't have wanted to linger bc it was hard to have a significant conversation with all the noise. But I'd definitely go back. I got the cancun tacos with tuna...gf and enough for leftovers. read more

Trash. Will never visit again. The ambiance was old and crummy. The tacos were average for the high cost! Drinks are not refillable. Service was not great. Just not good. read more

Good for vegan/gluten free, liked the food and the vibe, friendly staff, kinda small inside

I have heard wonderful things about this spot and was eager to try it for a date night with my husband. We ended up sitting at the bar because the place looked busy which is typically a good sign and there was no hostess in sight to ask for a table. It took a little time to be acknowledged, but once we were we put our order in right away seeing they were busy. I got ceviche and a chicken quesadilla. The ceviche came out and I thought it was the wrong order. It was covered in a red/ brown sauce that tasted like BBQ sauce. Never in my life have I seen ceviche look like this. The portion size was ridiculously small and some hard chips on the side. My quesadilla was also small with just dry chicken and cheese on the inside. Underwhelming to say the least. I got a margarita for a drink which was standard, and I would have ordered another one, but no one checked in on us after our food arrived. We left hungry and unsatisfied. read more

I gave a 3 because the food was good. The service wasn't so good. They made me feel like I was an inconvenience as soon as i walked through the door, and I felt rushed. The ambiance was cheap and dirty. I wouldn't go back. Somerville has so much more to offer. read more

Lively little spot serving familiar local Mexican comfort dishes. We came 15 mins late on a Friday evening but they were still able to accommodate us even though it was a full house which is really kind of them. The acoustics in the space was high energy as I could barely talk and hear the other person across from me. Lighting is super dim so seems like a good date night spot. Service was prompt and good despite how busy our server was. When we were sat at our table, complimentary chips and in-house-made salsa was served on our table. Delicious snack as we decided what to pick for our meal. We ordered a ceviche appetizer, chicken enchiladas, and the carne asada plate - all shared among two people. The ceviche was good and served with the same chips but portion was rather small for the price. The enchiladas were also tasty, but there was a lot of cheese and rice in relation to the amount of chicken and the dish overall seemed somewhat plain and dull. The carne asada plate was slightly better crafted, and while it came medium rare as requested, the flavor of the steak and texture was still quite tough and not worth the price. The plate was served with refried beans, guacamole, and rice - all of which were in much better ratio compared to the enchiladas. Had a 'Mexican lager' as my beverage which I'm pretty sure is just draft Corona. tldr; average Mexican food at a very above-average price. Cute date spot but can be loud during peak hours read more

We went at 7:30 with a reservation for a table of 8! The place was very busy so the service was fairly slow. The food was very fine? Enchiladas mole were warm and did taste good, but very much a 3 star experience being $19. The chips and salsa was great and complimentary. It was great they could accommodate a group of 8, but it's not a place you need to try if you're only in town for a weekend. Also had a glass of sangria for $9 that was tasty! read more

Friday night dinner plans ended up going south and we walked into Ole on a complete whim! The waiter we had was so so nice, attentive and kind. The highlight of the experience was his service. We were a group of 4 and were able to get seating in a 10 mins without notice. We started with a margarita pitcher for the table as well as guacamole. The guac was fresh and made practically table side. We were starving so it was gone within seconds. I went with the tacos and did half and half with the baja fish and baja shrimp. They were filling and tasty. I was a little surprised to see the 3.5/5 rating because this place was a solid 4 in my mind. The patio seating was great and the real highlight - they have parking...where can you get parking in Cambridge? Like nowhere. read more

Delicious Mexican food right near Inman square! I came here with a group of friends on a Friday night, and they were able to seat us almost immediately! They have a great outdoor space with socially distanced tables and fun music playing! We started off with the margarita pitcher and guacamole, how could the night go wrong? The margaritas were strong and delicious! The guac is very fresh and was seasoned perfectly. For my main meal I ordered the enchiladas and they were great as well! The rice and beans on the side were cooked to perfection. Overall, I had a really nice time here. This could be a perfect spot for a night out with friends, family, or a significant other! The service and vibes are great, I recommend! read more

Great chips, apps, and entree's! I was really enjoyed the food. Fun atmosphere! Decorated for the season.

Ole was good! It's a neighborhood spot for me and it was nice to be able to walk here. I got the street corn and the churros. I really loved both the food items. The churros were bomb and I actually took them home since I couldn't finish. I ate them again later in the night as a midnight snack. read more

Date night! Heard a lot about Ole Mexican Grill and thought we try it. Reservations a must. We sat outside at the patio which was nice with the sun setting. Hostess and wait staff were excellent and attentive. Food and drinks were delicious and authentic Mexican. For appetizers, we ordered the ceviche, chicharron and guacamole and as entrees, we ordered the duck in mole sauce and chicken tacos. All delicious and excellent. Definitely coming back again real soon. read more

One of our favorite sit-down Mexican restaurants pre-Covid, and now one of our favorite Mexican takeouts. The restaurant has an extensive menu, and everything- from the shrimp ceviche to the chicken mole - is really well done. The salsa is really special, and I love that the prepare the guacamole table side. Family-friendly but a nice enough vibe for date-night. The takeout counter (Ole To Go!) has a necessarily pared down menu but the burritos, quesadillas, tortas and salad bowls are substantial and tasty. And they serve churros! read more

Went here one night with the BF because I was eager to go somewhere different. So we get there & he comes to the conclusion that he doesnt truly like Mexican food (he likes Tex-Mex - The Border Cafe is his ultimate fave) So we order a few drinks, some apps, some other things. The place is TINY, but the pack it in... Service is pretty good & fast. All the food started coming out fairly fast. Guac was delish. Apps were good (not best I ever had - but good) We were done fairly fast & didnt feel rushed out, so it was a good night but prob wouldnt be back too soon. Was slightly over priced for portions but hey its Trendy Inman. Parking lot is literally next door so that was super convenient. read more

Pretty solid place for Mexican food. On this particular visit, we arrived close to closing but you wouldn't know it since our server never made it feel rushed. For our starter, we had their homemade Ole Guacamole with the house chips and salsa fresca. So fresh! I loved it. I just wished I'd have been able to see them prepare it fresh tableside like I've heard from so many people in the other reviews. We also shared the ceviche verde. Not exactly what I pictured a ceviche to look or taste like but it wasn't bad at all, just a bit different. For our entree, we shared the Street Food Trio which for us was the Tacos Baja, Taco Coliflor and Taco Cancun. If you're a sampler type of person, this is it. All three were pretty tasty. Very glad we went with these. Not that I love busy busy places but I'm almost positive this is a sure fired 4 stars had I visited them earlier when they were livelier and in the groove. I will be back to see if I'm right! read more

We had dinner tonight at Ole. We have been there many times before over the years. This used to be one of our favorite restaurants, but no more. Our experience there the last time (about six months ago) was not good. Tonight's food was one of the worst. Starting with chips and salsa, chips were bad. For main course, my wife and I both had enchiladas. Mine was with mole sauce, which was good, but the stuffing was quite bad. My wife had verde sauce, which was quite watery. We had flan for dessert, which we had to send back after one bite. I don't think we would go there again. read more

This as tasty. It was tasty. I tasted it and concluded it was tasty. I got a burrito, which is tasty. The meal had a taste to it. Yum.

Haven't been here in years now but we happened to be in the area and decided to come for dinner. Everyone in the staff is friendly and polite. The decor could use an upgrade and having the burrito bar in the middle of the restaurant is not the best aesthetic. However, do not let that deceive you. This place is all about the food. I'm a Mexico City native so I'm always wary of Mexican places in Boston. Here I was pleasantly surprised: The food is tasty and pretty authentic. The waiter recommended the special "Chile en Nogada", so that's what I ordered. We started with some antojitos: chicken taquitos, Mexican quesadillas and tinga tacos. All of them are delicious and perfectly seasoned. The tinga reminded me of home. On to the main course, tho. The Chile en Nogada blew me away. The sauce was on point and the poblano pepper was perfectly prepared. Overall, the nutty sauce, the juicy pomegranate seeds, the savory ground beef picadillo and the slightly spicy poblano pepper came together in a rendition of this classic dish that might well be the best in the Boston area. Other than the decor, the rest of the experience was on point and we will definitely come back soon. I hope they keep up the good work! read more

Went back last night with my full family and my daughters boyfriend. When the waitress came to take our order, she informed us that we couldn't order the burritos??? They're only available for takeout, she told us. That's the whole reason I came back. Bye Bye....You lost a good customer. read more

This wretched excuse for a restaurant deserves zero stars. We came for dinner and had both horrible food and service. We ordered the queso fundido, which was fine aside from the fact that the waitress did not bring us plates to eat this messy dish on (I makeshifted the tinfoil that the tortillas were in as plates). I then ordered the chicken ceasar salad, which came out as a wedge that was NOT CUTTABLE and therefore not edible. As I ate the chicken off the wedge, I revealed that the lettuce was completely brown. When I brought this to the attention of the waitress, she removed the salad from the bill, but had the audacity to retain the charge for the "chicken add-on." My partner got the enchiladas which were also gross. I hope that we do not get food poisoning from this. read more
