“Alex was amazing! Great food! Pineapple margaritas are to die for! Def recommend!“

“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.“

“I love this place the service is super friendly, we asked for chef recommendations and the chef came to our table that was exceptional, the drinks are really big and delicious and the food is good. We ordered an aguachile and it was delicious.“

“Best tacos around! Especially the Birria!“

“Crown Cantina provided a exceptional dining experience last night. The kitchen is 100% gluten-free, offering a unique and refreshing change of pace. We started with the tostadas and salsa, which were delicious and had a nice kick. We also enjoyed the Hamachi, the Tijuanero (steak taco), and the large plate chicken enchiladas verde, all of which were made to order and full of flavor. The margaritas were also a highlight, with the ghost and guava margarita being a standout. All of their margaritas are crafted in-house, making them a healthier option. If you're looking for a high-end Mexican meal, Crown Cantina is a great choice.“

“The enchiladas are divine!!!“

“Is the best Mexican food in Cincinnati? Definitely. In Ohio? Probably. In the US? Gotta be top 25. This place is truly a gem and I can’t say enough good things about it. Everything we had, which was a lot, was a 10/10.“

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

“Great food, great service. Loved their nacho trio and 3 taco combo. Great GFDF options available.“

“Never once had a bad experience. It is cash only but they’re always quick, everything tastes amazing. I mistakenly ordered extra on accident due to miscommunication and they didn’t make me pay for it which I would’ve been fine doing so.
My favorite is the shrimp tacos or quesadillas, it will have you daydreaming about how much you want more“

“Wow, where do I begin? I was there for lunch, and the garage doors were open which created a great atmosphere. The food was flat out amazing and so flavorful. The wings were also on point. I would not typically order wings from a taco joint, but after being advised they're great, we tried them and I can't disagree! Magnificent. And the sauce they serve is far from a conventional wing sauce, but it's delicious! I highly recommend this place in every aspect. Oh, and the staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and punctual. Ohh, and DEFINITELY try the spicy margarita. Best marg of that type I've ever had. Smoky. Great stuff all around. ?“

“great food and super friendly service! we love having Los Potros in the neighborhood!“

“El Barril is a really awesome Mexican joint we found in Mount Adam's in Cincinnati. It had both indoor and outdoor seating but on this day we decided on the inside. The restaurant looks really super fun with lots of tremendous decor with even the chairs being unique (and comfortable too.) They had a lot of unique takes on Mexican dishes (lots of unique burgers on the menu for one) as well as some classic favourites. We started with an appetizer of Buffalo Chicken Dip which was a straightforward take on it. It had lot's of chicken, a very flavourful but not too spicy Buffalo sauce, and some blue cheese mixed in. It was served with chips. This was as good of take as I've had on a Buffalo Dip that I've had from anyplace. For my main course I tried the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos which was 3 hard tacos served with grilled shrimp topped with spicy Bang Bang sauce as well as cilantro. This was very unique but very delicious all the same. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and that sauce I would describe as zesty with a slight punch but not too much. Really liked them a lot. My wife enjoyed her Margarita as well as her food (I believe it was a pork dish but I forgot to take a picture). This was a super fantastic lunch and I for one can't wait to come back.“

“Service was great as well as the authentication Mexican food“

“We went here for my husbands 34th birthday…The service was great fast and well mannered servers …Food was great hot and Tasty and prices are not that expensive…but I loved sitting on the patio able to see The sunset ….I recommend to anybody looking for good Mexican food..“

“Delicious! Most authentic we’ve had since moving from FL! You MUST try the carne asada!“

“It’s a quaint mom + pop type style diner. I tried the street tacos + they were absolutely delicious! I tried a variety of the selection offered to get a good feel for the food. It did not disappoint. I would definitely recommend this place!“

“First time eating here and absolutely loved it! The turtle is amazing. Rich flavors. Great menu variety. Nice portions and the staff was friendly and super helpful for first timers. Strongly recommend stopping in and trying this place! We will be back!“

“I love this restaurant!! The food is outstanding. My family and I have NEVER had a bad meal there. The waiters are fantastic and we are always shocked at how fast our food arrives. This is by far my favorite Mexican restaurant in Cincinnati!“

“Great fast service quality food and inexpensive“

“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.“

“I had an amazing experience at this Bubbakoo's location! The place was spotlessly clean, and the food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the burritodillo and some jalapeño poppers. The burritodillo was massive; I couldn't finish it all! The poppers were just perfect. I highly recommend this spot. The Staff was very warm and friendly and made the whole experience amazing! Definitely coming back.“

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

“we would eat at Don Rigos every night if we could there food is fantastic our favorite place.“

“We dined at Nada for the first time tonight and received exceptional service from our waiter Jordan. We are visiting from out of town and asked for recommendations for bars after our dinner. He let us know he was still new to the area however he came back to our table with a list of bars and areas to check out. It’s the little things like this that make a big difference!!“

“best Mexican restaurant in Covington. our waitress was so nice and always being helpful. food was spot on. leaving $20 tip was worth every dollar. thanks for a great experience“

“awesome place! great food, great margaritas...Clean and friendly environment“

“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“

“The food was amazing! Their rice is better than ANY other. Loved the black beans. We started with chips and guacamole. It was thick and smooth and delicious. We had a veggie meals, bean burrito, cheese enchilada with rice and bean.??My husband had 2 enchiladas, refried beans, and rice!! We will be back with friends and give a shout-out to our hungry neighbors.

Vegetarian options: You will not be disappointed with the rice and beans alone! Gauc was the best!!!

Dietary restrictions: They had a page of vegetarian option.

Parking: It is located in the strip mall there is more than enough parking for everyone.

Kid-friendliness: Parents came in with a child while we were there. Bench seats are very big. Small kids have tons of room“

“Service is always good, and I love their Tropicana Quesadillas. Thank you El Jinete.“

“Always good food, big portions and friendly service!“

“I order the same thing everytime i go a small chichen burrito bowl the portion is really good size for small it is very filling. I have takin food to go and ate inside as well. Very nice atmosphere very friendly service everytime I go.“

“A very enjoyable lunch with great food and atmosphere. I came for lunch and it was busy with families and men clearly on break from a work site. My only slight complaint is that while the chairs and benches are wonderfully decorated they are also a little uncomfortable if you want to sit back. You will find sports on the TV and a well stocked bar of liquor. Having my coke served in a bottle was kind of a fun treat as well.“

“Rays the best he made our night“

“Absolutely a hidden gem in Cincinnati. Real authentic Mexican food. I've been a regular in the past year or two and had tried everything on the menu and a few off the menu. All great especially lengua, cabeza and the tortas(huge). Owner family is friendly.

Vegetarian options: You don't really go to taco truck for vegetarian stuff.

Parking: It's in a gas station just park where you see fit.“
