I've been to Mezcal twice now... once in March of 08, and once just the other night (Nov 08). Our drinks were great, but the food quality in general went way downhill between visits... hoping it was just an off night? Guac was fabulous, as always. We tried a sampling of stuff from the menu, but when asking for a... more

Probably the best Mexican in Worcester. Great selection of Tequila. Food was ok, but not the best Mexican I have ever had. I have been there 3 times, and every time: The Gaucamole is fresh, but there are WAY to many chunky onions. There are always flys (even right now in late October.) It takes a while to get refills.... more

Very nice, higher-end Mexican food. Guacamole is made fresh to order and there are two new varieties with almonds .and cashews (but I'm a purist). The place was busy, the wait shorter than we were told (always a nice bonus) and the staff friendly and attentive, just like several other reviewers said. It is noisy. Definitely a place the 30-something... more

We were looking forward to a decent Mexican place in Worcester so we tried it. The guacamole was definitely excellent, as was the salsa. Unfortunately both our meals were overcooked and bland. I had the chili cumin rubbed pork tenderloin and my wife had the red snapper. Considering the price for the dishes ($18 and $20 respectively) we have no... more

Try the Guacamole Flight for a great tasting appetizer. Don't miss out on the margaritas. I once tried a Sea Scallop dish that was a special that night. I still have dreams about it. It was sauteed in a pea-basil sauce and came with a generous portion of risotto that was equally delicious. My goal is to try every item... more

I am a HUGE fan of Bocada in Worcester so I was really excited to try Mezcal. I took my two friends on a Friday night. We went at 7 so we knew we would have to wait. Not a problem. They told us it would be an hour wait so we went across the street for a drink. Came... more

Tequilla Cantina is probably a good way to describe the place, very small and cramped. Bar very crowded and noisy (also small and cramped) adjacent to (on top of) seating area. They might do better to become a bar with appetizers. First clue as to food quality was waitress ability to promote endlessly the varied tequilla drinks and inability to... more
