I wish I could give more than 5/5. The food is amazing but the service is even better!! The waiters, bartender and owner are very friendly! For years I’ve been looking for authentic Mexican food in MA. Cielo checks all the boxes! Definitely recommend given it a try for your next date night!

Decided to give Cielo a try from a coupon received in the mail. When I arrived the place was packed and sat at the bar. The drinks were amazing to start. I ordered the chicken Taquitos and Steak Fajitas. The food was great. Real, authentic Mexican food I’ve been craving since moving to Mass. I’d recommend Cielo to anyone.

Chips were super salty and taste bagged. Food was mediocre. Probably won't visit again. Music was fair.

We were craving Tex Mex and Cielo has good reviews so we decided to try it. Walking in, I was surprised by how small the dining room actually is. There were quite a few people waiting for tables, so it definitely feels like a local favorite, but the space is tight. Once we were seated, it was comfortable and clean.
I have to get the one negative out of the way first. The complimentary chips are those round, bagged ones that taste a bit stale. It is a letdown. And made us question all the good reviews. We decided not to order queso or guacamole because I didn't want to waste good dip on bad chips.
Luckily the main courses were a completely different story. I ordered the carnitas tacos on corn tortillas and the meat was fantastic. The mole enchiladas were also a hit. The chicken was moist and the mole sauce had a really distinct tangy flavor that I enjoyed. Both plates came with rice and refried black beans. The beans are served in a cute little crispy tortilla bowl with a slice of fried plantain, but the rice was the winner.
Service was top notch throughout the meal. Our server was attentive without hovering and very friendly. If they swapped out those chips for something fresh, this place would be unstoppable.

Spent $80 on take out for a treat. When it arrived we noticed they didn’t include any tortillas for the fajitas. So we spent $21 on a bowl of chicken and veggies. Ended up having to go buy tortillas to enjoy our takeout. Completely ruined the afternoon.

I had a very disappointing experience at the bar during my visit. From the moment I arrived, the bartender was dismissive and judgmental in his demeanor. I ordered only one drink, yet my card was charged as if I had ordered from the bar area without any explanation.
Additionally, when I requested olives, the asian bartender handed them to me with bare hands, without gloves, while touching other surfaces right in front of me. This was unhygienic and unacceptable, especially in a food-service environment.
When I raised concerns, there was no apology or attempt to correct the situation. Instead, my card was taken back in a rude and unprofessional manner. Overall, the service felt disrespectful and careless.
Given that there are already multiple negative reviews mentioning similar issues with bar service, it’s concerning that no improvement has been made. This type of behavior reflects poorly on management and should be addressed immediately, as it negativel

Too bad not a larger place...it's popular...
I personally don't see it as a good place for children. Too tight. But great for adult night out! There is outdoor seating at fro t of restaurant but now too cold

This place need some love. They got good food, good servers, bartender on the other hand cheat on the drinks... I asked for a Jameson ice and soda water and got some weird tasting drink... I sent back and got the right stuff. They need some good music and someone smarter sitting people. Is not right for a table of 2 people sat at table set for 4 ppl and have the party of 4 waiting at the door when you had plenty of tables set for 2 ppl. There was no manager presence. I think they can do much better with someone giving some directions.
