    Wet Burrito
    Nicholas W.

    Great spot. Popped in on a Friday after work with my partner in crime. Easy parking. The girls behind the bar took great care of us. We ordered 2 Pina Coladas, cheese dip, a Cali Burrito & a Wet Burrito. No complaints. The drinks and food were delicious & the portions were plentiful. This is what I look for when i'm in the mood for a Mexican Cantina -- we'll be back for sure.

    Grilled and Fried Fish Tacos. They put the slaw on the side. The little details is great. Enjoyed the tacos.

    Solid place for tacos--we mainly go here for their fish and shrimp tacos. IMO, they have the best in town. Slaw with the tacos is very flavorful. For fish and shrimp, they give the option to have it grilled or fried. I've had their lengua tacos their before but skip it-- it's nothing special unfortunately. Wish it was more moist and flavorful. This location is on the west side of Worcester in Tatnuck Square. Parking is in back but it's not a huge lot. I'm only reluctant to give a 5 star only because there were a few times they made mistakes on my order. Also if you're looking to do takeout--online ordering directly from them is very finicky. It seems to be down fairly often. Either way, solid place.

    Adobada Tacos with added shredded cheese, lettuce & tomatos and Barbacoa Beef Tacos with added onion & cilantro.

    So glad we had tacos & burritos there last night. Only complaint was their complimentary salsa was very watery. The guac is slammin' and their Pineapple Chili Margarita is fire! Not too spicy, just perfect. Everything else was perfectly delicious (in my family's opinion). I ordered 4 types of tacos - the Veggie, Pollo Guisado, Barbacoa Beef & Carne Asada. 2 and a half was filling. Our son had the Adobada (Pork) and Barbacoa Beef. For dessert, we ordered Churros with chocolate dip. My son loved them. I'm on a sugar fast so I haven't tried them yet. Will definitely return soon and highly recommend. Best taco place we've been to in Worcester, hands down! There's only 2 we haven't tried yet. Our lovely waitress was very attentive with perfect service. She checked on us 6 times and she has a great personality. The ambiance was good. My only complaint is the the framed true crime poster facing me on the wall at our table featuring a news article of a murdered Mexican man (not sure who he was) but photos show him murdered on a bed. Not a family friendly image. I don't have young children (son's 18) so wasn't a big deal where we felt the need to switch tables or anything - just worth mentioning.

    Carnitas

    Carnitas and barabacoa quesadillas to die for! Crowd and service is great. Happy Cinco de Mayo!

    Good! Not great, but going to try again because they have two chances to be great! I had the burrito with chicken.

    cocktail garden & kitchen is a brand new restaurant and outdoor lounge. the ambiance is cute,…read morethere's an indoor bar with a couple tables and a large outdoor patio area filled with comfy chairs, couches and covered in lights. we came at 10pm on a wednesday, the kitchen was closed but we came for the drinks anyways. they do a great job with the drink presentation, using different presentations with smoke which is entertaining and pretty! their drinks look beautiful but the drinks are very watered down or sweet from the sweet heart and mezcal drinks we tried. for ~$17 each, i loved the presentation but we both didn't feel there was nearly any alcohol in them, either sugary or watery. maybe it's a method for you to order more? mezcal 2.5/10 sweet heart 3/10 although they have a great ambiance and vibe, and fun presentation, since we came for a single good drink, it was lacking. for $17 a drink, the drinks shouldn't be this weak. this is a new place so i'm sure they have some things to work out, and i would highly encourage them to just add more alcohol to their drinks and this would be an ideal place to get after dinner drinks and relax on their outdoor patio. kitchen was closed so can't speak for the food. the neighborhood is very busy and loud, so while there may be plenty of space for an intimate or group conversations, the street is pretty noisy, even on a wednesday. i do feel like they will work this out! tldr; great vibe, great presentation, good service, drinks need more work, located in busy part of city. ambiance: 4/5 food: n/a drinks: 1.4/5 service: 3.5/5 cocktail garden & kitchen: 2.9/5

    Food was fine, drinks were good, but didn't have enough ice/weren't cold enough. Service was good,…read morenothing special. The vibe was a little weird. Whole experience was just okay.
