Mija Cantina and Tequila Bar Opening at Boston's Faneuil Hall Marketplace

Yet another Mexican restaurant appears to be coming to Boston, with this one apparently being an upscale spot within the Faneuil Hall Marketplace.

According to The Boston Herald, Mija Cantina & Tequila Bar will be opening in the Quincy Market space where Sam's Cafe at Cheers used to be. The article states that the eatery will have a capacity of about 300, and it will feature 150 different types of tequila. The menu at Mija Cantina & Tequila Bar will include such dishes as enchiladas, tacos, burritos, and quesadillas, along with chicken and steak entrees that will be priced in the twenties.

[May 20 update: According to UrbanDaddy, Mija is planning to open today.]

Once it opens, Mija Cantina & Tequila Bar will join several new (or soon-to-open) Mexican and Latin spots in Boston including Lolita Cocina & Tequila Bar, Papagayo, Tico, and Temazcal Tequila Cantina.

The address for this new Mexican restaurant at Faneuil Hall Marketplace is: Mija Cantina & Tequila Bar, 1 Faneuil Hall Market Plaza, Boston, MA, 02228. The phone number is (857) 284-7382. And their website can be found at http://www.mijaboston.com/

Thanks to Grub Street Boston for initially bringing this to our attention.
