   Overall a nice dinner. The food and service was great, and the portion sizes were perfect. The guac was totally worth it! We did feel a little rushed when OpenTable said our reservation was only for 1.5 hours, and then the hostess told the group in front of us that she needed the table in an hour. Ambiance was good, but bustling and a little noisy. I had to keep my coat on because we were seated next to a cold window in Jan.

   Offered chips salsa guac repeatedly at the start as if it was complimentary but it was not, and added almost $20 to the bill. Also included other fees on the bill without explanation. Food not great and overpriced.

   I first visited Casa Romero when I first Moved to Boston, in 1979, I enjoyed it very much then as it was one of the two Mexican Restaurant in Town, I had a pleasant experience then, so I wanted to try it out with My daughter after all these years. What I found is that they have maintained the same decor as it was then, it was more crowded now, and the food was what I expected, the server was very nice and helpful, the noise level was on the higher side, but it was a warm and cozy place. I am sure the people in the neighborhood would welcome an upscale Mexican place, near them.

   Delicious food and cozy atmosphere. Our waiter was attentive and gave excellent recommendations. The food was fresh, hot, and tasted amazing. Highly recommend the ghost pepper tequila margarita!

   Seriously? The issue is not the food, it’s the drinks. A $17 margarita which was literally a glass full of ice with minimal drink, and virtually no tequila…and contained two small sips! Lol. DO NOT ORDER THE MIXED DRINKS IF TOU COME HERE. What a waste of money. The bartender should be reprimanded. I feel like I was ripped off and we have been very loyal diners at Casa Romero for well over two decades. I will no longer recommend. :(

    Casa Romero was a great place to enjoy our annual dinner before the Pops. The food, atmosphere and service were up to expectations and the price was reasonable. We’ll comeback again.

    We have been going to Casa Romero for 30+ years and it is always excellent. Everything is good but we especially like the Sangria and the baked cheese with chorizo and also the chili relleno are all incredible and many other menu items.

    Always a pretty place, we still enjoy coming here. We were shocked at how the portion sizes have changed (guacamole, salsa, chips, beans as a side on the dish. The food remains good as does the service. Not the same experience as it used to be however.

    We always have fun at Casa Romero! Last night it was quite crowded and everyone there was enjoying the food, margaritas, and festive atmosphere. William was our server and did a great job getting our food and drinks to us in a timely, friendly, manner. We will definitely be returning to Casa Romero the next time we are in Boston. Thanks for a fun evening!

    We have been to Casa Romero often and it was as good as ever. Some of our party had a dish with a stuffed chicken breast with mole sauce which we had not seen on the menu before - it was delicious. Others in our party has Enchiladas Verde and Chilis Rellenos. At our request they made us guacomole which was not spicy. All was delicious. Once again a great meal.

    I'm terribly shocked by the offensive woman host. First of all, I was in front of the restaurant and is waiting to be checked in, she came over and just stared at me, almost as if I'm a monster or something. A normal person would ask the name for the reservation, instead she said nothing before I told everything to her. Secondly, after she lead us to the darkest corner, she disappeared before I try to ask for another table, so I asked a waiter if I can sit at another table and I got a positive anwser, then the woman came over here and just shouted at me: move, you cannot sit here! And when I complained that the original seat was uncomfortable, she even said: You got to sit where I asked you to sit! WTF? Am I a prisoner or something? What a big joke!
