We love the bar at The Brick! It's our "date night" place where we can just chill and enjoy some cocktails and outstanding food!!

3 años de Vicitar el restaurant todo muy rico siempre emos cido muy bien atendidos pero esta cena fue pesima el servicio malicimo con la manneger muy antipatica. 3 years that I have visited the restaurant everything really good the food really tasty, but this dinner was the worst food great as usual but the service wasn't great the manager was really disrespectful, the only one who was really accommodating was the one in charge of our table. read more

We've been going here for years. It was never inexpensive but the quality was good. Still good, but $8.50 for a 12 oz bottle of beer? I doubt I'll be back, if I do return I won't order anything to drink. read more

Food is outstanding!!!! This is such a gem in the heart of Sterling. We bring all of our friends here when they come to visit. If you like spicy, get the 911 sauce, it's the perfect spice with a ton of flavor. The only downside is it is small, so you may have a wait. read more

The Brick, although really a small establishment and pricey, is one of the best places to get Mexican food in the area. It makes up for its cons through the quality of food and rather large portion sizes. You definitely won't leave hungry! read more

Excellent. I've spent three times in each experience the food and drink were amazing. Service was very good and couldn't ask for more. I love the ambience - you feel like you're in country. read more

Just kind of ok. Not bad in any way, just not amazing or particularly good. Food is fine in an Americanized kind of Tex-Mex way. Beverages are ok, as well. Service was attentive but the place is tiny and gets packed. Thus, service can slow down and occasional polite prompting to love it along. If you are here with someone you want to have a conversation with, you might struggle due to size, density and volume. Price was ok for the area, the two of us got out of there for about $60 with the tip. Recommend going at non-peak and making it a quick visit. read more

Of course I have to begin with the enchilada suisaz, and they were outstanding. The outside was perfectly golden and crisp, covered with cheese and the first bite revealed a generous filling of tender, juicy pork that was seasoned beautifully. The flavor was rich and savory, with just the right balance of spices that gave it depth without overwhelming the palate. Every mouthful felt indulgent, yet comforting at the same time. Can't forget the side of beans that were hearty and satisfying, along with the perfect side of yellow rice to accompany my enchilada. Together, it was a plate that felt both authentic and elevated. For dessert, I treated myself to the tres leches cake, and it was the perfect sweet ending. The cake was light, moist, and soaked through with that delicious three-milk blend that made every bite melt in my mouth striking with just the right balance. The whipped cream topping was fluffy and fresh, and the drizzle of caramel added a lovely touch of richness. Honestly, it was one of the best versions of tres leches I've ever had. The bartender Jasmin who took great care of us, was amazing and provided us with the best service and conversation one could ask for, she made our amazing visit even more memorable than it already was. Highly recommend! read more

Saturday 500pm dinner for 4, arrived 5 minutes early and the reviews were correct: this is a small place but gets heavy traffic, as there was a line already waiting (mostly non-reservations or take-outs) outside the door, and mobbed inside. Super busy, and the staff works for sure. This is not a place to start out as a server, unless you have gumption. Table gets nachos (refillable if asked) and salsa, and fresh quac if asked. Great guacamole, but although the salsa was nice medium spiced, it was more liquid than I'd like. I think adding some crushed tomatoes or a puree would help out to thicken it bit. Companions ordered the Grill margarita specials which they enjoyed. The food looks pretty good to the pics on the menu, too. I had the Seafood stew which had light Butterly (but not overly) seafood flavor. Fish, mussels, crab legs, shrimps, maybe some other stuff in there too. And for me, enough for half to go home. Appetizers for me were coconut butterflied shrimp, with a pleasant orange sauce, Another hit. The plate of Tacos with cheese and ground beef is large (for my companion), and another had their steak special, which looked great. He said it was excellent, especially from a Mex-style restuarant. Not a long wait for the food items, considering the crowd. It opens at 4pm, so I would say that's the best time to avoid the crowd and noise. It probably lessens after 730-8p, so that may be a better time to avoid the noise and crushed humanity! Even the modest separated dining portion can't escape the noise from the center tables and the bar area and TV. So if you don't like a crowd to meander through, chart your visiting time accordingly. A 14% tip is added in at the bottom of the bill, but it also offers varying percentage options, too, to select, so be aware. You get what you pay for: high quality food, and priced appropriately. If their food is very good, and I am served enough for a modest take-home bag, too, it becomes a win for me, which it was. It Is in the center of a small town, so on street parking, with a small municipal lot across the street. I plan to go back....but not at 5pm! Just sayin'. read more

Wow ! Ok!!! Little pricey but great food, Great service . Bartender with red hair delightful !!! We had guacamole, pork burrito and pork enchiladas!! We love pork! Enchiladas were a little small I've never seen them made this way, kind of like a taquito, only 3. Not complaining it was still very tasty! I'd go back again for sure. Very busy read more

My son and I are from Texas and thought we'd try it. Delicious Brick burrito was outstanding. The owner came by our table and was extremely nice. We would definitely go back there again. Outstanding food. read more

The Tacos Zarpados are some of the best tacos you get can in the city! Service was friendly and restaurant is gorgeous!!

Overall good. A small place but the food was fresh and tasty. Good margaritas. Staff was friendly and very attentive.

We had a great dinner at The Brick. We started with warm chips and salsa. The margaritas were so flavorful and good!!! We had the fajitas, fish tacos and quesadillas. All were so fresh and tasty. All servers were attentive and meals came out quickly. Lots of fun when the staff sang Happy Birthday to our daughter! Fun night! read more

The Brick Mexican Grill - Birthday fun at the Brick - Mexican Near Me - Sterling, Massachusetts

After reading the reviews I was expecting to really enjoy it here but sadly I did not. The only highlight were the margaritas which were great. The inside was small + cramped, only a single-serving portion of salsa was given to our party of four, we never got a refill on our chips to eat with our queso appetizer(because for some reason the queso does not come with chips), our waitress was hard to track down, entrees took forever to come out, and the food just wasn't worth the trip. Two of us ordered the chicken tacos and both agreed that the chicken tasted so dry that it was hard to eat. I would have fixed it with salsa but the tiny amount given to us had already been long gone, and I did not end up finishing my tacos which is very rare for me! read more

This is a great little spot. The service is great, the Jalapeño Margarita is very tasty, and the Brick Tacos are delicious. Definitely ask for the 911 sauce if you like spicy. I had the Street Tacos with Ground Beef as well, and they were very good and quite large. You also have to love a place with free chips and salsa. The street parking is usually ok. Trying to parallel park on such a busy road can be a challenge as the fool behind me was right up on me and honked as I tried to back up. Needless to say, I had to turn back around and make sure no one was behind me so I could back in. read more

Food was good but way overpriced. Too noisy. People at the bar were watching a soccer match and were very loud. There is excellent Mexican food just as good nearby that isn't so pricey. read more

Good food, good service, good cocktails. If you are expecting not to wait for a table on a Friday or Saturday night and not like small places, suggest you go to Mexicali. Otherwise, highly recommend. This is our go-to place. read more

We loved our visit at the BRICK! First of all, the food was excellent! We got nachos and guac to start, which were super tasty. I normally would not pick a burrito as my first choice, but the shrimp burrito was great. I also tried the fajitas, and will definitely get those next time. We shared the flan and churros for dessert and churros were perfect! I don't think I've ever had them fresh like that, so maybe I was just easy to impress. But the atmosphere was great, noise level not too loud, and our server from Peru entertained our attempts at speaking Spanish. My girlfriends had some exotic margaritas, they were either pineapple or coconut, but I would've preferred the traditional margaritas if I was not driving. I wish I lived closer, but will definitely schedule a return visit when I'm in the area again! read more

Great Saturday after errands place. Fully enjoyed the atmosphere and food. Service was very attentive and polite. Will definitely return. read more

Good Mexican food in a small town. They can get very busy and sometimes don't answer calls for takeout. The service is inconsistent with the busy times. Not overly friendly so we usually order online for takeout. The food is worth finding a way around the service so takeout is the way to go here. read more

Good quality margaritas. Friendly staff. Food is excellent. Portions are large so plan on taking some home. They are moving to a larger place soon. I stop here every time I'm in town. read more

Decent food, but not traditional mexican food by anymeans. We waited about 50 minutes for a table on a Saturday night in very cramped quarters, and the hostess tried to attempt to seat two parties who came in after us. When we spoke up about it immediately, she tried to say she called our phone and no one answered. We had been standing there the entire time, and she had individually went up to each party when it was their turn to be seated, but not us for some reason. This caused one of the parties who came in after us to get agressive with us, so it was not a pleasant night out. Most likely will not be back. read more

This experience was amazing today. Was f full but after we taste the food we understand why? Our waitress Dayana was phenomenal. She was really friendly and have a good memory because she take our order by memory and came as we order. Overall the food, the employee and the atmosphere was excellent and welcoming read more

Unreal food. Amazing service. Great ambiance. Cant wait to go back next time. Cannot believe it has been here for this long and never been there. read more

Amazing food. Great drinks. Only downside is it's small (always busy) and can be loud.

Great place! Stopped in on a Saturday afternoon, perfect time. Not too many people so you can hear yourself think. I had the Ceviche to start. Delicious and all fresh ingredients. Moved on to the Brick tacos. What an awesome selection. They were sooo good! I wasn't as please with the margarita- I asked the waitress if they used hand squeezed lime and was assured they do but something was off. That aside service, atmosphere and food were all top notch! Will definitely go again read more

The food is excellent and the staff is great. Unfortunately during one of my visits I found a stone in my beans. I almost broke a tooth. Thus the three star rating read more

Excellent food! I got the street tacos and finished my whole plate. I usually don't but it was yummy and worth being stuffed. Margaritas and mojitos served in a fun glass is always a plus. Lively bar atmosphere and fun 80's music. They celebrate birthdays with a sombrero and singing. It's small but cozy with a faux fireplace and the service was also good. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. read more

Love the food, we have never been disappointed. Service is excellent. It can get very loud and noisy but I blame that on their delicious margaritas!! read more

We love our neighborhood Mexican restaurant. The food is delicious, the margaritas are delicious, and the restaurant (though small) is warm and friendly. read more

The Brick is a rare find in Western MA. Our first visit was on a Wednesday evening around 7:00pm. The restaurant was not too busy, so we sat at the small bar. We started with two Margaritas, salsa & chips, and guacamole. The Margaritas were delicious and prepared with fresh squeezed limes and other fresh fruit. The guacamole tasted freshly made. The chips are made on site from corn tortilla slices, then fried and served hot and crispy. For our main course, we shared a carnitas plate which came with a side of Mexican-style rice, black beans, tortillas and garnished with guacamole and pico de gallo. Plate presentation was not your typical Mexican restaurant which can be messy. The carnitas was tender and delicious. I made a carnitas taco with all plate ingredients. We ordered tres leches cake. It was a perfect ending to a great meal. We'll be back for the carnitas burrito and Chicken Mole. read more

Chips stale. Salsa canned. Chicken dry. Taquitos awful. Heard great reviews. But Staff friendly but food bad. read more

It was nice to go and experience the new restaurant but I don't know if I would go back unless invited by someone else. While the place was nice inside and the staff was very friendly it was quite small inside with every table full which caused the wait times for food to be very long...I'm talking 1.5 hours to get 2 tacos and a fajita. The food was perfectly fine but again nothing I would seek out voluntarily. read more
