 I don't recall the name of the place, but I've had great Mexican food
 at a restaurant right off 128/I-95 in Woburn.  It's on Commerce Way,
 right next to (or attached to) some motel. The food is really
 excellent.  The place has a busy/fun kind of atmosphere.  It's very
 popular with the business lunchtime crowd.

 I know it is a bit further than you were looking to go, but everyone
 should make a special trip sometime up to Danvers to the Luisian
 Grill, which serves both tex/mex and utterly incredible cajun.
 Continue North on 128 (when I-95 splits off, stay on 128) past the
 North Shore Mall to Endicott Street.  At the end of the exit ramp make
 a right and continue past the Liberty Tree Mall.  Just before the end
 of the road make a left into the Luisian Grill's parking lot.

 The only other great Mexican I've found North of Boston is in Saugus
 on US1.  The Border Grill (by the big EAT sign, near the Hilltop)
 serves great tex/mex and wonderful margharitas.

 Actually, I think that's the Border Cafe.

 There is decent Tex-Mex/Americanized Mexican next to the Woburn Mall
 "On the Border".

 There is good authentic Mexican in Waltham on Charles St. (near Main and
 Moody, but the streets there are odd, so look at a map) "Taqueria
 Mexico"

 There is good authentic (as far as I can tell) El Salvadoran and
 Guatamalan on Moody St. called Mi Tierra (I think)
