Casa Romero

4.3

About this business

Casa Romero is an ideal location for couples and anyone seeking some serenity with their salsa. The outdoor courtyard is gorgeous in nice weather, and the attractive Back Bay clientele make for prime people-watching anytime. The restaurant is actually tucked away in a basement on a side street of Newbury Street, and the food sells itself. The seafood is first-rate, and the meats also impress. Quench your thirst with a pitcher of sangria or a salty margarita for the ultimate Mexican dining experience.

New Years Disgrace – DO NOT TRUST THIS RESTAURANT! They advertised a 4 course pri fixe menu for New Year's Eve. We made reservations WEEKS in advance. We called a cab to take us there for our 7:30 reservation and there was a sign on the door saying "Closed dur to water damage." NO PHONE CALL or posting on their website alerting customers to this at all on New Year's Eve. Obviously there were no other places to go that were not already full! DO NOT GO HERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! They are inconsiderate and frankly, not worth... read more

This labor of love lures devoted diners down a nondescript alley in the Back Bay for standout Mexican cuisine. – The Scene More than 30 years ago, Leo Romero decided against following in his family's political footsteps and opened this gem of a restaurant in an alleyway between Newbury Street and Commonwealth Avenue. Romero's award-winning cuisine--a taste of which vindicates his career choice--is complemented by his restaurant's lovely interior: exposed brick, imported tiles and colorful artwork make this one of the city's ... read more

Awful service....... awful manager – Awful service. I know it was 5 de Mayo but it is a business. You're supposed to figure out how to meet customer's needs, not supposed to assume people would expect worst service because it is a holiday. I talked to the manager about the bad service and he told me that I was supposed to understand about their underperformance because it was a high peak season. I was in a 20 people group, very frequent clients and we're not coming back EVER.

What a surprise! – What a pleasant surprise. I went out to dinner at Casa Romero with some friends for a birthday party, and this dining experience was not at all what I was expecting. After all of the terrible Mexican food I've had here in Boston, I expected another run-of-the-mill Tex-Mex kind of restaurant. The food was so authentic, and the margaritas are to die for! I will be sure to come back. :-)

not feeling the love – This was my first trip back after many years. Unfortunately I was disappointed- the salsa was bland- Everything was bland, The shrimp flautas had a strong taste I am going to try to forget- I wouldn't be so harsh, but I remember this place fondly from earlier years. I guess you just cant go back home again. The menu's were dirty- the entire place had a shabbiness that I couldn't look beyond- especially at these prices. I am sorry to say that I cannot recommend Casa romero.

A hidden gem! – Loved this dining experience! Service was excellent, staff were genuinely nice, and food was of excellent quality. Outside seating terrace and cosy atmosphere makes this place perfect for a first-date!

Awful Mexican! – The food here is mediocre at best. Along with the price (expensive) you have a dud. I do NOT recommend this restaurant. You can certainly find better Mexican in Boston. The guacamole was horrible and the enchiladas were tasteless.

Got my Hopes Up – I kept searching and searching for a good sit-down mexican restaurant to take a freinds for my 21st birthday and from what I saw on their website, Casa Romero looked like the perfect place. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. I mean, don't get me wrong, the food itself is good, it's just not great. And for the prices they charge, the food should be great. I guess I have to keep looking....

wasting $$$ + leaving hungry = Casa Racrapo – Very Nice atmosphere and good food, but $18 for 3 enchiladas is a rip off. Plus paying for refills on chips... That's should be a show stopper right there for anyone considering going here... Portions are not pleasing, but if money doesn't matter to you, then hey tear it up!
