Casa Romero
General: This little mexican restaurant is set in the heart of Back Bay, yet you will never be able to find it. Located in an alley off Newbury Street, Casa Romero is truly a treasure to find. This authentic restaurant is filled with the sounds, lights, sights, and tastes of Mexico!
Located: 30 Gloucester St, Btwn Newbury St & Rt 20
She Said: This cute and date-worthy type of a restaurant is definitely a well kept secret, located in the alley. Honestly, I’m not a big fan of mexican food, yet I enjoyed coming here and trying something new. This place is a bit pricey for my usual taste, so I expect the best… I feel I did get that when I order the Vegetables served with a Guajilo Sauce and a Corn Talame. I also recommend the Cactus and Tomato salad… just a nice, refreshing taste! As for drinks… Sangria! I just love the stuff. You’ll also get chips and salsa… nothing special here, just standard… I think I’d come here again, even though Mexican food isn’t my favorite. The location is wonderful, since its off crazy Newbury; there is a small patio, which is great when the sun is shinning and you’re sitting having a drink; and finally, the place is cozy and friendly!
He Said:
This place reminds me of some quaint, old places you might find in the middle of the Mexican heartland. The menu is pretty authentic, and the decor is what is expected of a Mexican restaurant in America. The food is good, and the carne asada is my favorite dish there. I have heard the fish is tasty, as is the enchiladas verdes. Overall I like Casa Romero, and it is definitely a spot to visit in Boston if you are looking for fine dinning with a kick.
One caveat: be prepared to pay typical Newbury (read premium) prices when you go down this ally for a little bit of south-of-the-border experience.
