Takeout review I've eaten at the Waltham location years ago so I was expecting this place to be good and it was! Fresh hot food and super yummy hot salsa. Totally coming back here again!

Two plates are too much for two people! Delicious! Spicy salsa!

Great place for nicely prepared Mexican. We ordered plates with enchiladas, burritos and all the trimmings. Everything was very tasty, and we kept eating long after being filled. Fresh ingredients, nice sauces, and a tasty margarita made an early evening dinner perfect. Street parking was pretty easy at the end of the business day right after they opened. Downtown Framingham can be a traffic nightmare, but we zipped right in and right out. And the prices were so reasonable. Almost cheap eats!

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.

If you're looking for anything fancy, this is not the place. But.. the tacos here are amazing!! For sure one of the best places around to go for tacos! VERY reasonably priced. The staff is very friendly and accommodating! Highly recomme

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.

This was our third time dining at the Framingham location. We have lived in the area long enough to…read moresee three restaurants come and go from this spot. Even though the space housed other ethnic restaurants since then, the decor and interior feel reminiscent of the old Iguana Cantina. The servers are friendly and quick to help. A bottomless basket of complimentary warm chips are thick and tasty and served with a plate of refried beans as well as a bowl of sneakily spicy salsa. I ordered the Loco Burrito on this visit and was pleased with the flavor of the carne asada beef diced up inside. This burrito was stuffed with meat, black beans, and rice and was topped with a sprinkling of cotija. I usually love a super cheesy burrito but this felt lighter on a hot summer day. After downing lots of chips and a delicious fountain Diet Coke (IYKYK), I only had room for half of my burrito. My teenage son happily finished the rest for me the next day. This restaurant is quiet and unassuming- and never feels busy. I hope y'all try it and love it so that they stick around!

We stopped in for lunch on a Tuesday and were surprised to find the restaurant so empty. Service…read morewas prompt, and I started with their Michelada Mazatlan, a not-too-spicy tomato base w/ your choice of beer. I opted for a Corona, and the drink, with its tajin covered rim and trio of seasoned shrimp, was a refreshing start to the meal. The Chile Verde, served with either corn or flour tortillas, is a plentiful portion...easily enough to make 3 tacos. The pork was salty, tender, and flavorful, and the creamy beans were a nice complement. My family also enjoyed the Carne Asada and large Loco Burrito. Despite an empty dining room, the atmosphere was upbeat with friendly and attentive staff, colorful decor and Mexican tunes at the perfect volume on the radio.
