A brand new Mexican restaurant has come to the western suburbs of Boston.
According to a poster within the Friends of Boston's Hidden Restaurants Facebook group page, Mexicana Grill & Cantina is now open in West Newton, moving into the space on Washington Street that had previously been home to Ninebark Kitchen + Drinks, and before that, Burke's Alewerks and a location of The Local. An Instagram post from It's In Newton mentions that owners Antonio de Trizio and Nicolas Ruiz previously owned Latina Kitchen & Bar in Needham, while the menu for the place shows such options as taquitos, burritos, enchiladas, quesadillas, fajitas, tacos, tortas, flautas, churros, and flan, along with a variety of margaritas.
The address for Mexicana Grill & Cantina is 1391 Washington Street, West Newton, MA, 02465. Its website is at https://mexicananewton.com/
