The care, the love, the patience, the experience, the cleanliness, the vibe. All are completely unmatched by any Chipotle in the universe.Thank you for your glorious service.

Dietary restrictions: They were very kind with dairy allergy needs“

“i have to say that crew at the independence location is awesome, they are always on their A game . they have the best performance and have a service with a smile. the food has also got so much better as they put pride in their job.. as tonight i went through the drive-thru and the young gentleman that worked the window is something else, he is filled with amazing energy, he left me feeling happy in my heart.“

“We first stopped in to El Taco Feliz about two months after the location on 42 opened. It quickly became a favorite of ours, we now stop in as much as 4-6 times per week. Food is great, staff is friendly, it’s an awesome place, and I highly recommend it. Not only do I recommend, but it is my overall favorite restaurant in any category.“

“HANDS DOWN BEST TACOS IVE EVER HAD!!! CANT WAIT TO GO BACK!“

“Wonderful menu and food was fantastic! Staff was amazing and friendly!“

“My wife and I tried this place while being there for their Tacos, Vatos, Y Lowriders car show and were very happy with the food. The place was absolutely packed because of the show and Mexican independence day but we still got our food pretty quickly and it was delicious. I think the Churro was the best I have ever had.

Vegetarian options: My wife had a vegan taco and loved it.“

“After long day driving, stoped in Florence for the night. We decided to get some dinner this place was a surprise wasn’t sure how it would be since parking lot was empty but the food did not disappoint. The service was quick food was hot. Waitress didn’t speak much English but she was very sweat and understood what we wanted. If you like Mexican def give it a try.“

“Hands down the most amazing taco truck I have been to. Absolutely love the Birra Tacos with the dipping auju! Do not let the price scare you they are packed full! I purchased 11 tacos on Monday and between 2 of us we have 2 left to fight over. The Birra, chicken and steak tacos we keep going back to for our order can’t stop craving them to try anything else. Fantastic!!!“

“Wonderful menu and food was fantastic! Staff was amazing and friendly!“

“New FB Page- COMAL_at_FortThomas“

“First time trying this place and I was very pleased. The young girl behind the counter was super sweet and helpful. the value is great too. A lot of fresh, flavorful food for your buck. Much better than chipotle in my opinion. I also like their initiative to donate a meal for every meal you buy. Will definitely be back.“

“Ask for Carla, great service and the seafood chimichanga was great #ReneerecommendsYES“

“Called this location inquiring about my absolutely WHACKY dietary needs.
Not ONLY did Brittany give me accurate information, did not judge me. Polite, informative and even told me about other options that would keep me at the right price for my needs.
I was concerned. It's strange. She ASSURED me that her professional, courteous and knowledgeable staff could help even if she wasn't present after our phone call.
Let me tell you.
ACCURATE.
Brittany was on break, I was afraid ro even ask the wonderful young lady at the counter... but HANNAH WAS AWESOME!
I told her my WHACKY stuff, in line, in the store... she stood tall "I got you". I can make whatever you need just like that. What would you like in it?

No judgements. Just help. I wish it were this easy other places.
THANKS, LADIES!
Definitely be back.“

“Amazing Tacos😋 best in town“

“This restaurant made me feel at home and I'm not even Mexican. The food was delicious and did not take long to be served, the atmosphere is familiar and clean. From the food to the music, I liked everything about the restaurant but what makes the restaurant is the service, the waitresses do not look overworked which makes the service fluid and friendly. I will definitely eat here again when I'm back in Cincinnati.“

“Our family stopped here while visiting Kentucky. The friendly staff seated us immediately and had chips & salsa on the table before we could even sit down.The food was fresh, delicious, and the servings were very generous. We would definitely come here again if we're in the area.“

“This place was awesome. I moved here 3 yrs ago from Oklahoma, where there is a food truck every other corner. So I know my street tacos. Absolutely amazing and I have been looking for a place that serves elotes en Vasa. And they had it and it was delicious. Highly recommend.“

“I see some negative comments. I don't believe the reviewers realize what Zapata is about. Frankly, I find it refreshing that dishes are not smothered in cheese and drowning in sauce. Zapata is about combining flavors, and not marching to the beat of the typical Americanized version of Mexican food to which we have become accustomed. I recommend it to all my friends.“

“Great food and service! Love going to el nopal!“

“We just moved to Kankakee and this is our first time trying a new restaurant in the local area. We were very impressed with the quality of the recipes used, the freshness of the ingredients, and even the presentation of our meals in their to-go containers. We'll definitely be ordering again from this restaurant and I suggest that if you're looking for top notch Mexican cuisine in the Kankakee area this is the place to go. Genuinely some of the best Mexican food I've ever had and easily in the top 10 of best food I've ever had.“

“Chuy's continues to be one of our go to's for awesome Tex-Mex cuisine. The restaurant looks so fun and the people have been so nice to us and that was definitely no different this time. On this occasion I got their Steak Burrito which was stuffed with steak, Jack cheese, and Hatch Green Chile sauce. The steak and cheese was excellent with great flavour cooked into the steak. The Hatch Green Chile sauce however was a bit disappointing with it being advertised as being spicy but lacked both spice or really any flavour at all. Even so the the steak and cheese did make up for the shortcomings of the sauce for me. The Mexican rice was excellent as well. All in all another great visit to Chuy's.“

“Best tripa tacos in greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. Can't go wrong with any of the tacos on the menu, but tripa is my favorite for both the crisp and the chew. Love the menudo and wish it was available every day instead of just the weekend.Super quick service and always delicious salsa.

Parking: This section of Madison Ave usually has plenty of street parking on both sides“

“this was seriously, the best burger I’ve ever had in my life, It was technically grilled chicken, but whatever. I’ve never taken a picture of my food unless something looks funny, but it was literally so delicious. I had to take a picture. It’s called Hawaiian burger. It’s only 11 bucks with a huge plate of fries not to mention the fact that this burger is literally bigger than my head.“

“Very delicious food! Fast and Friendly service!“

“First time back this evening and sis not disappoint!!! I enjoyed the Grilled Shrimp ans hubs had Enchiladas Cozumel. Everything fresh and tasty with shrimp cooked to perfection. .......love the fresh new updated interior!!!“

“This may be the best Mexican food I've ever had, which feels like an exaggeration, but it really was that good. The chicken was flavorful and not dry in the dishes. The rice was well seasoned. The staff were friendly and down to earth. It was just a cozy place to get Mexican and a drink after work and can tell it will be a spot I return to again and again.“

“Excellent service, great food and always welcoming. Perfect outdoor patio for dining any time. Many features outside of just traditional Mexican dishes.“

“Muy ricos tacos y tortas. We were visiting the area and decided we wanted something authentic and stopped here. Everything was really good, tacos, tortas, service, prices as well. The place is small only a couple of tables and they played music which was fine with us. Pero todo muy rico.“

“OMG, such amazing everything! Quesabirria tacos are the best I've ever had, crispy shell, tons of melty cheese and grilled onions! I also ask the chef for a Chile rellano burrito which is always amazing! Hubby had steak burrito which is his go to favorite... Servers were so nice and polite, they go the extra mile. Ready for some pics ... unfortunately, we ate half of the burritos before I remembered my camera. Burritos are huge!“
