BuenoMalo is a Southern California style Mexican restaurant located in the heart of Downtown Andover. You'll find bold west coast flavors in a casual and lively environment. Sit back and relax with an ice-cold margarita in one hand, and Abuelas guacamole recipe and hand cut tortilla chips in the other.

    My wife and I have been dining here regularly since they first opened. The food is fantastic and reasonably priced for what you get. Great drinks. Service is outstanding. My favorite restaurant in the area; you can always count on a great experience. Other restaurants should use Bueno Malo as a model for how to run a restaurant.

    This was our first time and won’t be our last! Everything was excellent! The guacamole was so good with the fresh tortilla chips. We ordered 2 tacos each but could only eat one they were so big and delicious. The house margarita was excellent as well!

    Bueno Malo is usually amazing. Perhaps an off nite. Nachos portion got a lot smaller and the service staff completely disrupted our dinner w more than a dozen repetitive interruptions and asked to take plates while still eating and pushed the drinks when still half filled. First bad experience in last 10 visits. Well keep going back and hope they get back on track.
