Olé Mexican Grill

Best of Boston 2007 Mexican

The only variety to be found at a lot of Mexican places is in what gets stuffed into the chimichangas and enchiladas. Not so at Olé, where chef Erwin Ramos has expanded his menu to make room for authentic ingredients like ancho chilies and mild cotija cheese, and Oaxacan- and Veracruzan-derived dishes like jicama–blood orange salad and sirloin steeped in poblano chili. As the hordes of happy diners attest, Olé even takes standards like guacamole to a higher level, preparing it tableside in the brightly tiled dining room.
