This is one good Mexican place in Boston. I fell in love with the interior, so festive with great vibes. The food is relatively spicy which is expected given that it’s Mexican but I would have appreciated if there were more less spicy options. My friend and I shared a few tapas and tacos from the menu. The grilled street corn were my less favorite because they were so spicy. My favorite taco is the beef birria taco, so good and flavorful. The drinks are also delicious with a good amount of alcohol in them.

Sunday brunch for this spot, for a chill, great scenery, great vibes with all the right songs, tequila & tacos! I got to go during brunch times, the waitress checked off the vibe check! Was able to help me out exactly with what I wanted! I told her what I was feeling and she reassured that what I wanted was THE items in the menu! I could have ordered TWO orders of the pancakes! But probably would have had to be carried out! Do yourself a favor & grab the Cornbread Pancakes has is (if you like everything there) TRUST ME ! With the tater tots make sure to cut the egg over it before trying so it’s not as dry! Recently took family there cause I felt so highly about them, and it had been confirmed . THE brunch spot! We had 3 orders of the pancakes at the table! & the staff is truly amazing! Friendly, welcoming! Have my girl now that’s there, that is THE girl she’ll make sure everything comes out on point! Idk if I want to tell yall, cause then you’ll make it difficult for me!

All in all a positive experience. Only complaints I have is they initially forgot the beef on the taco salad we asked for, our food came out at different times and I felt bad my step daughter had to wait another 5 minutes for her food…and then the restaurant called me saying I didn’t pay, all because they didn’t look under the check where the $100 that included a 25% tip. But the food was good, nothing special and the atmosphere was beautiful.

(Last visited October 19, 2023.) Hanging out in Boston for work and it's Taco Tuesday! So naturally, I do some Yelp'ing and found Citrus & Salt! Here's how it went... Atmosphere/Appearance: Set right downtown Boston tucked among the skyscrapers is this gem. Obviously, it's downtown so it won't have a private parking lot. I'm sure there's plenty of street parking in a neighborhood nearby, but be careful to really read the signs carefully. Once inside it felt a little like a nightclub! Lol. Not that the music was loud of anything, but the energy inside or lively, the vibes were high and everyone seemed like they were having a good time. I was also surprised by how big the place was! So many downtown restaurants have a small footprint, but this one was about the size of 2 "normal" restaurants. The decor was awesome, the lighting was a little dark, but it was colorful and energetic. Service: We sat at the bar and even though it was quite busy, we had no issues at all. Food: My friends and I were sharing so many plates that I can't remember everything that I had. Lol. However, I remember liking everything that I tried. The drinks were also good! Everything was so picturesque, but the flavors definitely matched the plate's visuals. Value: This place is a bit more "upscale" than your "traditional" Mexican restaurant. So you will pay more here, but it's totally worth it. I probably spent $75.00 myself on a few taps and some drinks. In conclusion, I really liked it here and would absolutely return here! I have nothing bad to say about this place!
