Where passionmeets flavor.
An authentic Mexican kitchen and mezcal bar on Main Street. Sizzling fajitas, tacos off the comal, molcajetes built for the table, and margaritas poured with fresh lime.
Our Story
We bring our best to the table, every single day.
Every plate that leaves our kitchen starts the way it does at home in Mexico — chiles toasted by hand, salsas ground fresh, masa pressed to order. From sizzling fajitas to zesty tacos, we cook food that carries you straight to the streets of Mexico without ever leaving Melrose.
Pull up to the bar for mezcal and a margarita, or gather the whole table around a molcajete. Either way, you eat like family here.

What Melrose is saying.
"Very nice Mexican restaurant. Reasonable prices and great service!!"
"My family is in town and we have been going out to dinner a lot the last few nights. This place by far had the best service we experienced all trip. Portions were great, the non-alcoholic drink options were fun, and they accommodated me with a gluten/dairy allergy. Absolutely will be back."
"Ordered a blended house margarita and the Mexico Lindo Burrito. I got the ground beef in the burrito and let me tell you it was fabulous. I would definitely order it again exactly the same way. Definitely recommend this spot if you're in the area."
"Mexico Lindo is incredible! The food is fresh, flavorful, and authentic. The portions are generous, the margaritas are delicious, and the menu has something for everyone. Definitely one of my favorite places in Melrose."
