A growing local group of Mexican restaurants has opened a new outlet in Cambridge a bit more than a year after it was first announced.
Based on a Bluesky post from troysch1.bsky.social and a check on the Toast site, Chilacates is now open in East Cambridge, moving into the space on Cambridge Street that had been home to East Side Bar and Grille. The new location was just added to the website for the restaurant, and there was indeed an "open" sign out front earlier this week, according to troysch1.bsky.social.
The new outlet of Chilacates joins others in Cambridge's Central Square, Jamaica Plain (two), Boston's West End, the South End, Mission Hill, Roslindale, South Boston, Brighton, Brookline's Coolidge Corner, and Chestnut Hill.
The address for the new location of Chilacates in East Cambridge is 561 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA, 02141. The website for all locations is at https://chilacatesmx.com/
