Los Cilantros is a family-friendly restaurant known for its unique flavor profile and focus on fresh ingredients. The food is delicious, with good variations on Latin fare, and the homemade blue corn tortillas are a standout. The tinga de pollo, chicken enchiladas, and stuffed poblanos come highly recommended, while the mushroom tacos remain a popular vegetarian choice. The restaurant emphasizes thoughtful preparation, using fresh ingredients like gently boiled corn for soup and avoiding excessive rice or cheese. Although there may be some kinks in service, the team is dedicated to delivering good service in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cozy, family-run vibe, along with reasonable prices, makes it a great value. Los Cilantros has successfully bounced back after the pandemic, gaining recognition as a hidden gem for its home-cooked Mexican dining experience and a nice selection of beer, wine, and sangria to complement the meals.
