    a plate of food

    This was one of my favorite restaurants in Framingham, however, they have weird hours, long before the pandemic. They are open 5:00pm - 10:00pm and are closed on Mondays. Some time this week (I believe it was Tuesday) , I tried to place an order during their small time frame at 8:30pm and they were closed. Today, I placed an order through EatStreet before they opened. You would think that I would receive freshly made food because my order was placed early. The chile rellenos (stuffed peppers with cheese) were smaller than the size of my palm with little to no breading and with no exaggeration, it was DRENCHED in oil that you could taste was burnt. The "stuffed" peppers did not have cheese. I paid $30 for 2 plates (4 peppers total) and they were all bad. I'm so disappointed. I called to have the order fixed or to receive a refund and there was no answer. I give up on this place.

    Unsanitary: My friend found a small cockroach in her water (not the kind that sings La Cucaracha, unfortunately). Way to quench your thirst... (See the picture.) Although the staff was nice and polite, finding bugs in your food shows the place may not be sanitary. We told the staff, who replied with a simple "sorry" and nothing more. We still paid for our food, and nothing was done for the inconvenience. (At least they didn't charge us for the small critter appetizer--yes, the cockroach.) I'll never be the same next time I listen to La Cucaracha...

    In a move that bodes well for downtown Framingham's emerging dining district, Taqueria Mexico recently relocated from Route 9 to a large and bright space next to the town common and near the commuter rail station. They in fact enlarged the existing space from previous restaurants into the next storefront, built a bar, livened up the color scheme with brightly-painted walls, and added numerous Mexican cultural artifacts as decor. A weekday lunch time found the place nearly empty with only one other table occupied and a trio of landscapers downing beers and eating at the bar. The host and waitress were warm and welcoming and spoke fine English. A basket of tortilla chips accompanied by two salsas was promptly brought to the table. The smooth red salsa was tantalizing and only mildly spicy, with a hint of smoke from what I surmise are fire-roasted chili peppers. The chunky salsa was a bit hotter, with a nice spikey burst of cilantro. Intrigued by the "Agua Frescas" drink offerings, I had a horchata ($1.95), a silky, cream-colored beverage made from rice that was a bit reminiscent of soy milk. I ordered a burrito ($6.50) that was as big as the plate it came on, with pastor, pork in chili sauce, that added a delectable, moist richness to the meat with only moderate spiciness. The other fillings of rice, cheese, sour cream, lettuce and tomatoes made for a hearty meal in that large tortilla wrap. Quite a deal for lunch for less than $10 total. Mexican pop music played on the restaurant's sound system, and when I noted the enlarged space, divided into two rooms, to the waitress, she mentioned that it is very crowded on the weekends, particularly later at night when they have karaoke on Fridays and a DJ on Saturdays. The menu is large and holds promise for some interesting dining choices on future visits, including chicken mole, always a bellwether for me for a Mexican restaurant, as well as a seafood soup (available on weekends only), tongue tacos, lamb burritos, and a trio of the usual dessert suspects - flan, tres leches, and rice pudding.They also have a wine and beer license with brews tilting mostly south of the border, including Dos Equis, Tecate, and Negra Modelo (my personal favorite with mole dishes). Forget those bland, corporatized Mexican food chains. Come to downtown Framingham for some authentic and tasty Mexican food at reasonable prices. I'll be coming back to Taqueria Mexico for sure.

    Stale chips. Sugary margs and inedible rubber whole fried tilapia fish. Steak on nachos was boiled. Friendly bar service though.

    I stopped by there for lunch today and they were closed. They actually looked like they may have closed permanently. Does anyone know if they are still in business?

    They aren't open for lunch. They open at like 5pm Tues-Sun.

    Wandered in here one Saturday afternoon and tried a steak taco…read more The service here was not terribly great, but it was an odd time of day and there was only one waitress. Seems like a place with steady regulars. There is a digital jukebox in the corner that was used every so often. Although I only ordered 1 taco, looking at the weekday specials and prices, it seems like a great place for cheap alcohol and food. I was really unsure how the quality of food was going to be so I decided to get one taco. Initially ordered the chorizo but was told they were all out so switched to steak. The steak is cut into little chunks which helps to disguise it's tough texture. However, the actual taste of the beef is okay insomuch as I could actually taste it, which is more than I can say for some other restaurants. The beef also had a nice browned outside, adding a hint complexity along with some grilled onions. I doubt the tortilla is made from scratch, but it was soft and appealing. In addition I was provided with a cilantro sauce as a condiment. It added a good note of complexity along with a squeeze of lime. Some hot sauce in combination with the cilantro sauce could be addicting. Pleasantly surprised by the steak taco. No frills, but decent enough and at a very affordable price point. I would return to try other items on the menu.

I have tried and tried to find fish tacos that were not dry and offered strong flavor. Good news, I found them! Their fish tacos come with a delicious grilled filet that is flavorful and juicy (if fish can be juicy). The grilled onions are a perfect match (to all their tacos actually), and I was so happy I ordered them. Try the two pork options as well (carnitas and el pastor). They are both just delicious! I cannot wait to return, as I think about these tacos all the time.

We took our two younger ones there for a quiet Easter Sunday dinner together. So many interesting things on the menu, we way over ordered. But everything was delicious. We had the pork belly confit, the cheese bread, the octopus, and the parm wings to start. They were all polished off quickly. Our pork belly did seem to have missed a sauce, but we just dipped them with the cheesy bread sauce and was very happy. My son ordered a few different skews and thoroughly enjoyed his Picanha, sausage and cheese and chicken heart. My youngest said the chicken hearts were the best she had ever tried. High praise from a kid loving chicken heart since just a tiny tod. My wife and I both ordered the ribeye over mushroom risotto. We order medium rare and both of ours came perfectly done. Both our kids thoroughly enjoyed trying our steak and risotto. My daughter and I both enjoyed mixing my son's Yucca mash with the risotto. She practically scrapped my plate clean. We all had our eyes on the pineapple, but all agreed we were overstuffed and will defer to next time. We even had leftovers to bring home to one happy Puppy. Will definitely return!

I got the Rickey Sour beer but I was very intrigued by their cocktails which I want to try next time. There were tons of good sounding options on the menu. Would for sure come back to try others.
