Take it from the locals here, Casa Romero has been in operation for many years. It is not fancy Mexican, it is everyday Mexican prepared, served and owned by those who know this ...

Worst

I should have sensed the red flags when I saw the entrance was located in a public alley. Although the service was very friendly, the decor of the place was dingy and slightly mus...

beuno but mucho deinero 4/27/2005

the salsa is so good i wanted to drink it, almost had too drinks were slow .Food good but small portions for too much money compared to other places and the service didnt match the prices and bathroom was needing sprucing up. Pros: great salsa, authentic feel, cozy Cons: basement, needs renovation more

FANTASTIC!!! 2/22/2005

This place is awesome, tucked away between Newbury and Comm Ave, but it is a very romantic place for a date. The margaritas are a bit small for the $8 charge, but the flavor makes up for it. The appetizers and very good, and the entrees, i had the pork tips, were tough to choose between. Pros: atmosphere, drink menu, price Cons: parking, waiting list more

Triple check your reservations 1/19/2005

I have no idea what the food or service is like here. I made a reservation, and the staff at C.R. called me back to confirm, yet when I showed up with my party (of 10), we were told there was no reservation. Showing them the call back number in my cell phone didn't prove anything either! They will NEVER see me in this restaurant! more

Our party was asked to leave... 12/12/2004

Recently had our company holiday party here, about 50 of us in total. The food was good, the service was pleasant, but the pacing of three courses took quite a while, and thus the party ran for longer than the restaurant had estimated. The owner himself, actually had the audacity to ask the entire 50 patron party to leave, so that he could seat the 8 people who were waiting at the door as we left. I could not believe it.... I am in the industry myself and NEVER under any circumstances would I ever ask a party of any size to get up from their tables and leave, no matter what the circumstances. I will never go back again, if this is the value that the owner himself places on the satisfaction of his patrons. It was a disgrace to the restaurant, to say the least. more

Terrible dont eat here 9/8/2004

I'm sorry, but when I ask for chile, do not give me a can of chipotle paste. I expect a fresh chile made from tomatoes, chiles, onions, garlic. This is terrible mexican food, and way too expensive...i if you really want mexican, dont eat here. Cons: , terrible food more

Owner Message
  • Since 1972, my customers still tell me what a delightful discovery it is to step out of a Boston alley and into the heart of Mexico. That is exactly what I had envisioned when I decorated the coffered door and walls of my restaurant with the bright Talavera tiles from Puebla, Mexico. Casa Romero is located in the midst of glamorous Back Bay at 30 Gloucester Street between Newbury Street and Commonwealth Avenue.
