Best chicken tacos I've ever had hands down, so good. birria taco was also very good. Would definitely recommend. Miguel was our waiter 10/10 great service. read more

Food: SO good! Some of the best Mexican I've had. Chicken empanadas were good as a starter for sharing, birria tacos were also pretty good. However the drinks weren't the best, would recommend getting just one drink to start. Service: Food was very fast. Love this about these types of places. Ambiance: So much fun. Great night scene, fun bar scene, bar/booth seating, and natural light. It's in a great area of town. read more

Sorry to say that I had to give a bad review but went there expecting a good meal but couldn't get placed the drink first. The ambiance was dell. Not even any music playing in the background we had to sit are selves ordered a Cadillac Margarita and a shot of tequila and the bartender didn't know how to make one and there selection of tequila was not good service was awful just a bad night I guess but it reflected on the quality of the drinks and food which was limited to what they had. read more

We had the BirriaTacos I like crispy so asked for well done. OMG The best soft taco I've ever had. Grilled on both sides with a dipping sauce. Two was plenty but the dog and husband finished my third. The margaritas were very good. Hopefully not the last good weather day to eat outside . Service was good. read more

3 Amigos Bar & Grill - Birria Tacos with dipping sauce - Mexican Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Fun spot to drink with friends but food was just ok. The ambience in 3 amigos is a bit confused but the large bar and ever-present music make it the perfect place to hang out with your friends for drinks and some food. I, however, did not try any drinks upon my recent visit and only sampled the cuisine which was overall, lackluster. When you arrive, you get free and fresh tortilla chips with a salsa verde and a salsa roja that honestly tasted jarred. Then I ordered some queso dip which oddly came with garlic bread. It was quite delicious and had the consistency of stretchy mozzarella rather than the sauce-like consistency of your typical queso blanco dip. Then I got the taquitos and the chicken fajitas. The taquitos were just ok, and reminded me of something you'd get at Applebees. The fajitas, however, were delicious! I was disappointed they didn't come with sour cream and the lettuce served with it was covered in vinegar. Overall, I'd come back for drinks and light bites or fajitas but you can probably find better Mexican food in the area. Ambience: 4/5 Food: 3/5 Service: 4/5 read more

I can't express how much I love this place! I've been going for years and it's only gotten better over time. The staff is very sweet and friendly. The food is amazing, especially the tacos and street corn. The drinks are unreal, I always go with the Passion Jalisco or Betty Boop. They started doing karaoke on the weekends and I was shocked how many people go up and actually sing! It's awesome and so much fun, a very cool and happening place to be! I'll definitely be coming back read more

Restaurant is a good looking place, our waiter was kind and quick. Drinks were delicious, the red sangria was my favorite, I got the birria beef enchiladas I absolutely devoured it unfortunately I was not a fan of the rice. read more

Just moved to Malden.. the service at this place is rough. The atmosphere was good, even the food wasn't terrible but pretty expensive. Wanted a good tequila bar and Mexican restaurant which is always hard to find in Boston but this place wasn't it. Overall service for how dead it was wasn't great. They're definitely losing people because I don't think they really care. It's the classic cantina with music and TVs in a good location.. overpriced food and staff that could care less if you enjoyed your experience. Gave it two stars because it's probably a pretty good date spot. Music, TVs and good beer on draft.. don't order a cocktail though, they're not very good. read more

I came here for a friend's birthday recently. She really liked this spot from living in the area in the past and wanted something low key for her birthday. This is really ideal for that. It wasn't packed, even though we had a reservation we didn't need one. All the food I tried was pretty good too: - shrimp tacos: shrimp were perfectly cooked and really different to have shrimp tacos served with bacon. Lots of flavor - fish tacos: LOVED these. The fish was light and crispy and flaky. One of my favorite fish tacos. All the tacos were served with sides. I had a small salad with rice and beans. Those were fine. - churros: incredibly light and airy. They felt guilt free. They're not but they felt like it. - Flan: this was just fine for me. I could've skipped it. Overall, I'd go back here. The prices were decent. Low key environment and good food! read more

Premo patio dining in the heart of Malden! 3 Amigos has super solid drinks and food, and you can't beat the location. I especially enjoyed my Strawberry Basil margarita, which was made with strawberry puree, tasted very fresh, and was reasonably priced. The guac was also tasty, with big chunks of tomato which gave it a nice texture and added freshness. My partner got the short rib tacos, which he described as okay but not mindblowing. I enjoyed my seared tuna & pineapple salad which had a good amount of tuna, grilled pineapple, and avocado over greens with soy ginger dressing & spicy mayo. Not a dish you'd typically expect to see at a Mexican resturant, and they did it well! Service was very good - friendly and attentive. And the outdoor seating is a huge plus. Make 3 Amigos one of your amigos, and come hang out! read more

I used to venture here almost every Tuesday for tacos when I lived in the area and they'd never disappoint. I came here for my birthday recently, which was on a Tuesday, because I was craving the fried fish and shrimp tacos and I also ordered the braised short rib taco. Everything tasted just like I remembered them- delicioso! Of course this was all to share because no way could I eat 6 tacos and sides on my own. Got a side of corn and plantain as well. I love fried plantain but I'm not sure how I felt about salt being added to it as a finisher. Prices haven't really increased much on tacos since 3 years ago but I did notice they no longer do the half off special on tacos on a Tuesday anymore which is a huge bummer. I guess that's why there wasn't much of a crowd when I went because I had made a reservation just incase since I know of it always being super busy on a Tuesday but I guess that was before the pandemic. The churros are one of the best I've had. Crispy and very light + airy. The flan was also good. The ambience was just how I liked it on my birthday and the food hit the spot. read more

Yummy! We came during non peak hours so the restaurant was pretty clean and quiet. The service was great and I love the warm fresh salted nacho chips! The salsa was a little watery though, but it was still yummy. I really liked my enchiladas but I wish there was more sauce! More sauce and more veggie (onion and cilantro) would be appreciated. The refried beans were ok, I like my beans chunky but these were almost smooth. Overall, good food for a budget but it didn't fill me up. read more

3 Amigos Bar & Grill - Carnita enchilada - Mexican Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

A few weeks back, my fiancé and I, in the spirit of culinary adventure, decided to try out 3 Amigos Bar & Grill, a new Mexican joint tucked away in a cozy neighborhood. Its exterior was as inviting as a Hallmark holiday movie, promising a mix of authentic and modern Mexican vibes. First impressions were on point: the service was snappier than a stand-up comedian, and the cutlery was charming in a "these-forks-have-personality" kind of way. I mean, who doesn't like cutlery with a bit of zest? The plating? Absolutely Instagrammable. We went full throttle on the menu, ordering Guacamole, Shrimp Ceviche, a Carne Asada plate, Chorizo Enchilada, and a Flan for dessert. A real 'United Nations of Mexican Cuisine' situation. I've been around the California-Mexican block, so I was all set to put my taste buds to the test. The Salsa and Chips were like the opening act of a concert, decent, getting the crowd (aka our stomachs) warmed up. But boy, the headliners did not live up to the hype. It was like expecting a Beyoncé concert and getting a performance by a Beyoncé tribute act instead. While nothing was bad per se, the Guac and Ceviche lacked the punch of a Mexican wrestling champ, and the Carne Asada felt like it was on a flavor diet. My fiancé's Chorizo Enchilada, which decided to go all chunky instead of the classic ground style, was also missing a spicy kick. Even the Flan seemed to be having an identity crisis. Not bad, but also like it was unsure about its place in the world of Mexican desserts. All in all, I would call 3 Amigos the 'diet soda' of Mexican eateries. Not as bold as the full-fat version, but hey, it could be a good gateway for those easing into the world of Mexican cuisine. If your palette is more 'salt-and-pepper sitcom' than 'jalapeno action-thriller,' this might just be your spot. Will I go back? I'm a firm believer in second chances. Maybe it was an off day, maybe they were trying a new recipe, who knows? I'm willing to brave it one more time. Here's hoping my taste buds get the Mexican fiesta they've been craving. read more

experience 1: Came in quickly for the murder mystery pub crawl and got a beer. Service was quick at the bar. experience 2: Came for dinner and was sat in a booth. Ordered cocktails and nachos with guac. Cocktails were all super sweet and my order was wrong (nachos and guac, which is a difference of $8 and essentially 2 plates of chips). When I said it was wrong to the person who brought the food, they just walked away, and then no one came near our table for over 20 minutes, not even waiving distance. When I said it again when the server took our plates away, she did not respond and left our bill with that included. I took the excess cost out of the tip. All that being said, the nachos and guac were good, but it still was not what we ordered. read more

I'm originally from Boston, but I live in Texas now. In my opinion, you pretty much won't get better Mexican food in Texas. California, and the southwest also have good (authentic) Mexican food as well. So going to a Mexican restaurant is never on my radar when visiting the northeast. My friend suggested this place and I decided to go ahead and try it. Again in my opinion considering what I am exposed to living in Texas, this place isn't what I would call authentic Mexican. However, it was very good! I really enjoyed the taste of the items I got. I was able to substitute three alcohol in my drink as well as make a substitution with my food. Our waiter was very nice and attentive. We went early for a late lunch, but the atmosphere seemed cool. It was fairly quiet when we went but again it was lunch and since I was visiting from out of town we stayed there to drink at little and catch up. I look forward to coming back when I am in the area again this summer. read more

So this is a major hidden gem in Malden. The food was legit amazing, and I've never seen short rib street tacos before, so good. The place is ultra cool inside too, awesome music, sick paintings all over the walls. The bar is huge and their tequila selection is second to none. Check this place out, don't even think about it. read more

The chips were standard but the salsa felt runny and flat to me with no vibrant flavor profile. I couldn't distinguish any notes of other veggies or herbs coming through, just tomato. The fish taco plate I ordered from the bat looked so unappetizing, with the battered cod chunks drenched in aioli and some other sauce. Nothing about the dish worked for me at all and I only finished the rice and beans because I didn't feel like getting a bite anywhere else. To add insult to injury, even the drink I ordered had a weird taste. I would say just drive for another 10 minutes and go to Mexico Lindo in Melrose read more

WOW! What an awesome little neighborhood gem. Seriously, I couldn't have had a more perfect experience. Their extensive drink menu was awesome. I had a strawberry basil margarita that was so delish. Not too sweet, and PLENTY of tequila. The thing was also the size of my head, and only ten bucks! To start we had the queso which was served with garlic bread and chorizo. It was out of this world delicious. For dinner we shared the short rib tacos and the fish tacos. They were both loaded with delicious ingredients and were cooked perfectly. We were able to swap out our sides of rice and beans for plantains and street corn. Everything was so good. Also, the green salsa is SLAMMINNNN. Can't wait to come back and try more! PS- Eli was an excellent server. read more

Clean. Fun vibe. Decent food and drink but the taste testing by staff is crazy . I'm all about the straw taste test to be sure a cocktail is balanced but the amount non bartenders are tasting a margarita is wild. Pro tip please don't taste test a drink and put said straw you used to taste the drink back in so the patron you serve it to is now swapping spit with you In closing or if you want to spark notes. Bartenders are lovely. Servers ... please stop sampling everyone's drink and if you do please get a new straw. read more

Came here last night to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, and overall decent experience. DRINKS: I was craving a margarita (as I always do lol), and opted for the Betty Boop. Honestly, probs one of the best margaritas I've had. It's a raspberry and lime flavored margarita, but what made it so special to me was the raspberry purée they used! (Or so it looked). Literally tasted SO good. FOOD: To start, I ordered the chicken taquitos. The corn tortillas were super crispy (as it should) and the aioli and cotija cheese it was topped with made it even more better. Generous amounts of chicken inside as well. As my main, I ordered the steak enchiladas, and it was delicious. Good chunks of well-seasoned steak inside each enchilada and smothered in saucy and cheesy goodness... just how I like 'em! The refried beans were just as yummy and the cabbage slaw gave the entire dish a refreshing touch. Portion wise, I'd say it's decent. However, I have seen other restaurants give larger portions. This still filled me up, but just an observation! SERVICE: Service was great! Our waitress was very sweet and helpful and came around to check up on us every now and then. I'm kicking off one star for health and sanitary reasons. Though it didn't happen to me, someone in my party found a piece of hair in one of their tacos. We alerted our waitress, and the establishment gave us 50% off for that dish. read more

3 Amigos was a pleasant surprise for me. Let's give a shout out to yelp for leading me here but the curb appeal is the look of a pizza shop. Neon lights that read "open" and just nothing really happening out there so that was a turn off, especially since I went here for a special event. I thought it was business casual but it's very casual, maybe a couple or two were dressed up but for the most part sneakers and shorts. Ok the good stuff, the food wasn't bad at all. The calamari was pretty good, the shrimp tacos were good and even though they're small they're filling! The drinks were Great! Maybe that's why they get the good reviews. You can get a whole pitcher her $25 (margarita) lot of other drinks too but you have to ask for the specials cuz you won't find them on the menu. The shrimp fajitas were excellent too, the shrimp was cooked just how I like it. Prices = good Food taste = above average Service = excellent Value = good read more

We were so excited to try this place out but unfortunately were disappointed. We got 2 orders of fish tacos (these come with a side of black beans and rice) 1 chicken quesadilla, an order of chicharrón w/ yuca, calamari, and the Buffalo chicken ragoons. First red flag was when we asked how much it would cost to add a single taco (2 come with an order) and she said said depending which one it be between $6 and $8! Anyway, the fish tacos and the chicken quesadilla were good but that was all. Rice was a little under and bland, the black beans were very salty, the yuca was not fully cooked, the chicharrón was all grease, calamari was chewy, and ragoons were okay. There are so many positive reviews so we had high expectations but food fell short... read more

I came here on a Friday night to chill and to enjoy good food. My first time here was on an afternoon and enjoyed their fish tacos so I was excited to be there on Friday. This time I ordered their braised pork fajitas and cheese fondue dip with toast along with their house margarita. I asked them to not put as much tequila in it because I don't normally drink that much anyways and they were able to accommodate for that. The braised pork for the fajitas was very flavorful and juicy. The portion was pretty big and had to take the rest home. The cheese fondue was a first for me and I really enjoyed it! Quite heavy for an appetizer so I am not sure if I will order it again, but still very good. The margarita was pretty sour, but I like sour so I enjoyed it a lot. They also give you chips and salsa in the beginning, which I didn't quite enjoy....something about the salsa. Since it is on the house, it didn't really matter but I prefer the chips and salsa at El Potro a lot better. In addition, the music was WAY too loud to even have any type of conversation. I understand it was a Friday night, but it wasn't even that crowded to have the music be that loud. That was the least enjoyable part of the night. It was hard for me to enjoy my meal and chill with my bf and my friend here because of that. Most places have loud music and can still make conversation, but this was exceptionally loud. Overall I don't think this will be my go-to if I crave for Mexican food unfortunately :/ Service was great though and our server was so nice. read more

I went to their food pop-up in Seaport and was left unimpressed. I built a bowl with lettuce, carnitas, pico, cheese, guac, sour cream, and chipotle aioli. It came out to be around $9. For starters, I paid for extra guac but got less than a tablespoon. Plus, there were beans in my food (when I didn't order them) and they completed smothered my plate in sour cream and aioli. The best part of the meal was probably the carnitas. They were nice and tender, but not the best I've had either. Maybe their physical restaurant is better, but their pop-up needs to step up its game. read more

Came here on a whim, a random suggestion, posed by my wife. It's closer to home than our usual Mexican restaurant, so we gave it a try. Straight away I liked the look of the place, and when I asked the waitress about the size of the shrimp in the shrimp tacos and she pulled out her app and showed me a picture of their shrimp tacos. They looked BEAUTIFUL! Large and plump with the grill marks. I ordered the shrimp tacos, and we also tried the birria tacos, a chicken burrito, and the fish tacos. While I can only speak to the taste of the shrimp tacos and my wife's fish tacos, all at my table raved about the quality of the food. My wife's fish tacos were excellent, the large fried pieces of fish were bigger than anything I have ever seen on a taco, and the pickled onions on top were spectacular. My shrimp looked just like the picture the waitress had shown me! Robust, crunchy, juicy, expertly seasoned, and grilled to perfection with bacon, arugula, and a buttery lemon type sauce. 10/10, We will definitely be back! read more

I love this place so much. It's my little hide away. Especially during the daytime as Maldens business lunch crowd is non-existent. Margaritas - [10/10] Honestly the best margs I can remember. Lol. Food - [7.5/10] Solid Mexican food. Tortilla soup is excellent, fresh chips and salsa all good. They even have a really nice blackened chicken Cajun pasta dish that is crazy good and will fill you up. One small gripe though is the enchiladas. They are decent. But I feel like enchiladas should be served smothered in sauce. These come w the sauce kinda baked within the tortilla wrap. They are still good but I think they can be elevated. Also, if they were to offer a molè sauce... that would be amazing. ** Churros are to die for... you must try *** Service [ 8.5/10 ] very friendly. Really like the people who work here. Atmosphere [8/10] I almost exclusively eat here during the day. And I love how quiet it is. It also sits nicely on the corner with large windows that let nice diluted light in. Tasteful Mexican music plays, plenty of TVs to stare at. read more
