Excellent food and service!
The colorful, beautiful artwork inside the restaurant immediately lifted our moods and the incredible smell of authentic food filled the air as soon as we entered the guiding. I stuck with my usual: carne asada tacos. Amazing street style taste! My mom ordered the chicken fajitas, which were sizzlin’ and bountiful. My girls ordered the chicken nuggets and fries, which received 5 stars according to their ratings! The queso was creamy and fresh which paired perfectly with every dish we ordered.
We also had the sweetest server who was attentive and efficient.
Our new go-to spot!

I need to find an excuse to get back to this area !
Delicious and well prepared Mexican food. The Salsa bar was quite fun. Wish our waiter had told us about it. He was a bit lackluster. But we saw others going to a small display and decided to check it out. Glad I did.
Fajitas had lots of flavor and fresh veggies. Meat moist and tender !
Rice perfectly cooked and perfect refried beans.

I came to Cielito Lindo hoping for an authentic Mexican experience, but it ended up falling far short of expectations. First off, the menu is frustratingly limited. You’d think a Mexican restaurant would have a variety of traditional dishes, but choices felt sparse and uninspired. I ended up ordering the chicken fajitas, expecting a classic, but they were a letdown. The chicken was flavorless, almost as if it had been sitting around for too long, and the entire dish was greasy without that fresh, vibrant seasoning you’d hope for in Mexican cuisine.
Service was another low point. We waited a painfully long time just to get our order taken, and even longer for the food to arrive. With so few people in the restaurant, the slow service felt inexcusable. The staff seemed indifferent, with no urgency or effort to make the experience enjoyable.
And let’s talk about the bathrooms – absolutely disgusting. For a restaurant that wants to be seen as inviting, the state of the restrooms was a huge red flag. It felt as if cleanliness was the last priority here, which doesn’t inspire confidence in the rest of the establishment.
Overall, this visit to Cielito Lindo was just plain disappointing. With limited menu options, slow service, nasty bathrooms, and lackluster food, it’s hard to justify a return trip. They could seriously use a revamp in both menu and management if they want to keep customers coming back.

Best Mexican we have eaten in a long time. Server was great. Place was packed but we didn’t have to wait. Would have given it a five * but the temperature got so hot inside we had to leave. It was actually cooler outside.

1st time visit today. My wife ordered steak fajitas and I ordered a trio combo meal with a taco, burrito and enchilada and we ordered queso dip also. All the food had an odd taste and was barely seasoned, some of the poorest tasting Mexican food I’ve ever had. The queso dip was decent, chips wasn’t warm but they were edible until we noticed something odd in the bottom of the chip basket. I’m not sure if I want to know what that was exactly. (See picture) No one ever asked if our food was good, I would had complained if so. The cashier pretty much ignored us as she was chatting with a friend, she never asked how our visit or food was. The picture of the steak fajitas is what we left on the table and I left around half of my meal also. Wasted our money, we left Cielito Lindo and got fast food for lunch. We won’t be back.

This evening my wife and I waited 15 minutes for someone to take our drink order. One party with five people and another party with eight people came after we did and their drink orders were taken. Outside of getting Chips and Salsa we were never waited on. My wife and I have been dining at this location for more than 5 years. We will not return after being treated in such a manner.

The food was good and the waiter was very nice. But there was one particular waitress that needed to get retrained or go back to Mexico just to regain her love for her own people. Her name was Esmeralda, I asked her if I could have a box for takeout, and she looked at me and told me to get it myself, and she pointed the corner counter… i was confused at first and couldn’t believe it, so when the other table asked her for a box, she right away asked how many and got the boxes for them… I came up to her again and asked her one more time and made sure she wanted me to really get my OWN boxes. And she said the same thing YES and pointed the corner counter AGAIN. I didn’t argue or make a scene. I went to pay my bills and told the person who took my payment that I think I was being discriminated by their own employee. My $60 bill and I still tipped $10 cuz the waiter who served me and my kids was very kind. I know it was just a box, but to get discriminated by your own kind was more hurtful than anything. So if u are brown AVOID, the waitress name ESMERALDA. I will pray she changes her ways.

The Good: Service is friendly and the chips and salsa not terrible although I could swear it was Pace Picante with a little bit of additional ingredients from them. I got the Carne Asada, it was a descent portion but the steak lacked flavor and was dry/overcooked.
The Bad: Over cooked lack of flavor on many of the dishes. Very small bar area.
Overall: It’s one of a few restaurants in that area, so you have limited choices and even less descent choices. Margs are good – I would go to this place for happy hour.

On a date? Get the Fajitas for Two — you’ll leave absolutely stuffed… along with a to-go box for tomorrow’s lunch. Delicious food and excellent service.
