Description:
SOUTH END. Darken the doors of Delux, and you'll know you've entered a new dimension—Christmas lights and Elvis memorabilia abound. This pub probably takes the cake for mostly oddly decorated eatery in the South End! Regulars love it, though, and keep coming back for the diverse, Latin-influenced menu. Try the grilled cheese sandwich with mozzarella, roma tomatoes, and fresh pesto that will make you a Delux believer too! The menu also offers a notable selection of micro-brews. |

BACK BAY. Here, the spicy fare is surpassed only by the stunning array of margaritas. How about a citrusy Platinum Marg with two potent ounces of Sauza Hornitos thrown in for good measure? Featured mains include such colorfully named dishes as the Tequila Sunrise (chicken breast marinated with lime, ginger, and tequila). |

Description:
FENWAY DISTRICT. Hungry for authentic Mexican cuisine? Head to El Pelon Taqueria, and you'll be satisfied with both the taste and the prices. In fact, some diners secretly wonder if they've forgotten to update the prices on the menu! Try the quesadillas, fish tacos, or the cheese enchiladas, all are savory and spiced to perfection. This restaurant is quite small so don't plan to bring a crowd or linger over dinner. However, warm weather provides for extra seating outside. The interior is quite festive with the tables and chairs painted in a variety of light pastel colors. |

NORTH END. This sprawling restaurant occupies three-levels of a Hanover Street storefront. Infused with the flavors of Italy and Peru, the cuisine consists of rich pastas and tantalizing meats. Dig into the fiery cassava root gnocchi with slow braised green lamb ragu and shaved parmesan. Afterwards a delicate dish of hazelnut mousse, drizzled with dulce de leche, should cool off your palate. Martinis, imported beer and wine available. |

Description:
CAMBRIDGE. It's all about the grill at this unusual restaurant. If you're a vegetarian, it's probably not the best spot for you, but if you love incredible roasted meats, it's definitely your stop! The place is a traditional churrasco rodizio, or rotating grill. At least seven grilling stations are scattered about the room, and servers bring selections of barbecued meat directly to your table. Everything is piping hot and delicious, and most meats are spiced or marinated. Additional menu items are brief and include sides, vegetables, and stew. |

Description:
JAMAICA PLAIN. This casual Mexican eatery is definitely cut from a different cloth. You're sure to notice that as soon as you spy the blinking taco sign that graces the restaurant's entrance. The interior continues the unusual decorating trend as it's decked out with piñatas, crazily colored sombreros, plants, and mirrors. The menu, however, is anything but strange. It's an artist's pallet of spice and flavor. The tamales, burritos, fajitas, and tacos are excellent due to a secret blend of spices and marinades. Wash it all down with an authentic Mexican soda. |
