A lot to say. Food was incredibly bland. Guacamole consisted only of avocado, tomato, onion and jalapeno. No salt or lime juice or cilantro (they don't have cilantro at Cilantro) or anything like cumin. I had to order limes from the bar and some cumin and S&P just to make it edible. Chips were thick and hard. Steak was 2-3mm thick, cold, not grilled and tasteless. Worst restaurant experience in the Boston area I've ever had.

Very bland.
Awesome.
Enviroment is nice, food was good, service was outstanding and appropriately attentive (although meal could have come out a bit quicker), restaurant seems to get busier after 6:30pm(at least on the night I went).
