Mexicado is located at the Hyatt resort, just a few doors down from where we are staying at the Radisson. This Mexican restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating and an extensive tequila list.

Her traditional Mexican salsa is made with the freshest ingredients resulting in a salsa that is bold and flavorful. There are no preservatives, no oils, no sugars and no artificial colors. The […]

It was a little too chilly for eating outside, but they have a lovely patio. The restaurant has two locations, one in the Seaport and the other in Lynnfield. Both restaurants […]

Sonrisa Grill is owned and operated by California natives Tim and Chanthy Walsh. They serve what they like to call, San Diego Mexican food.

While everyone was clearing out of the city for the snowmageddon, and old cor-worker and I were meeting for dinner in Faneuil Hall. Missing the guacamole at Zocalo, which was by our old office, we head to Mija to see if/how their guacamole stands up. Not surprising, there are only about 12 other people here. […]
