“Chipotle is usually top choice for a quick bite. But this location — this location is like a different restaurant altogether. 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.

“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.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely loved this place! I came in craving some good Mexican food and left completely satisfied. I had the quesadilla and tacos — both were packed with flavor, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of spice. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and what really stood out was the service. Our server, Jose, was fantastic — super friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the mood for delicious food and great service!“

“The restaurant is beautiful. The food is seasoned really well. It's more authentic than tex mex. It was absolutely delicious though. I'll definitely be back. The only downside is the a/c wasn't working which happens. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.“

“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!!!“

“1/25/2025 First time here. Wonderful experience. The food was incredible. We had 2 special items for the week..the chicken tortilla soup and Alambre tacos. Food was fresh and extremely flavorful. The taco tortilla was lightly fried and was crispy, not gummy like most. We had the Elote(corn off the cob) topped with a lime Crema maybe that was the best I have ever had. Margarita was delicious and a large glass was only $9.00. The place looks small from the outside but dining room is open and pretty large. This will be on our rotation list of places to eat at least every two weeks! Mark and Tiffany“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“Amazing authentic street tacos! Best tripe tacos I've ever had, lengua and cabeza tacos were to die for. The hot sauces are made in house and delicious, the red one is chilies and peanuts which I've never had before but was amazing! We can't wait to go back and try EVERYTHING. They have squash flower and corn smut tacos which are more options you don't often find outside of Mexico. Very happy with this place and you should go support them!! Didn't even think about taking a picture until we had devoured everything 😅“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I had the pleasure of going to this restaurant earlier this week. The margaritas were fabulous! The food I ordered was simply delicious and I cannot give enough kudos to my server Eber. I asked for his name so I could specifically include him in this review. What a nice server and so professional as well as attentive. I’m certain the other servers are very good, but I certainly will be asking for him at my next visit which may become a weekly routine.“

“I actually prefer the Dream st. location but it closed. I REALLY appreciate this place. You get your food WAY quick. The staff are friendly and attractive. It’s small tho. The other location was 4 times larger. If you don’t mind a super tiny establishment- you will LOVE IT“

“I’d like to thank the employee who drives the red Subaru WRX for facilitating a bold chromatic juxtaposition to my white WRX. Because of your impeccable taste in automobiles, we can both enjoy what amounts to an exceedingly dope “WRX ying-yang”—as evidenced by the supplied photo. Also… the food at this location is fantastic and the portions are generous. 554646 stars, would recommend. Also, also… tell Chipotle corporate to allow credit card tips. You guys deserve it.“
