Wonderful food and the service from Christopher was great. Guacamole made to order at the table side by James was delicious. Highly recommended!

Amazing food. Chris the bartender was wonderful (blood orange margarita!!!) and Roseann made the best guacamole we’ve had in ages. Pork taquitos and the molcajete were fantastic. We will be back soon!

We were passing through and picked this place to eat dinner. Chips were ok, salsa was weak and seemed like was from a bottle. My carne asada tasted great, the tortillas seemed greasy and there was nothing to use them with. 1/2 table spoon of black beens, no lettuce or cheese. The stake taco salad was also good but extremely small. Portions were small and left us hungry. Once our order was taken and delivered we never saw anyone. Nonrefills, not checking on us, we had to go find the waiter for the bill as did the tabke next to us. Again food flavor was great, portions were way to small. Photos make it look big. I should have put my fork next to it for comparison

Pretty new place. The margaritas were good. I'll have to go back and try the food sometime. Cozy atmosphere.
Edit: been coming here for a few years now. Food is great. Service is top notch. Love this place.

One of my absolute favorite spots to eat in Bristol has got to be Cielito Mexican Restaurant.
Seriously, every time I go, I make sure to order their taquitos—whether it’s steak, chicken, or pork, I honestly can’t pick a favorite because they’re all so good. Even though they’re technically an appetizer, the portion is always so generous that it easily feels like a whole meal to me. Plus, they always include this awesome bag of warm tortilla chips and fresh salsa with every order, which I love saving for a little snack later on. That little bonus always makes the whole experience feel extra special.
When I’m craving something more filling, I go straight for the steak and cheese burrito. It’s massive—so big that I usually share it with my boyfriend—and the side of gooey cheese sauce that comes with it is just perfect for dipping.
Honestly, Cielito never cuts corners on portions or flavor, and that’s why I keep coming back.
There are also other dishes I’ve loved over time, like the molcajete. It comes sizzling hot in this cool lava rock bowl packed with steak, chicken, shrimp, and chorizo—plus a little jalapeño heat that just hits the spot.
And the guacamole? They actually make it fresh right at your table, smashing up ripe avocados with lime, tomato, and just the right amount of spice.
I’ve had their fajitas too, both the chicken and shrimp versions, and wow—they come sizzling, tender, and just begging to be wrapped in warm tortillas with sides of rice and beans. One time I tried their enchiladas with mole sauce, and I was really surprised.
Their drinks are a total treat too. The blood orange margarita is super smooth and tangy. Definitely worth trying!
The whole vibe at Cielito is warm and inviting. Even when it’s busy, the staff are always friendly and make you feel welcome, which really makes a difference.
They’re open every day from 11 AM to 10 PM during the week, and stay open later on the weekends
The restaurant’s right on Main Street in Bristol, easy to find with plenty of parking.
Whether I’m eating in or grabbing takeout, I always leave feeling happy and satisfied. Honestly, it’s become my go-to spot for Mexican food around here—I just love it!

Arrived at 5:30 on a Saturday. Lots of open tables. Waited an hour and a half for a salad and a burrito. Watched others come in, served and left before we received our order. Salad came without a key ingredient. Pleasant staff, but lousy service.

Tried this restaurant during a busy summer day and we waiting 1.5 for our food. We were very understanding that the summer crowds puts a burden on the service. I decided to give it a second tried on a weekday night. I was excited that it wasn’t busy to get the true experience of this restaurant. Most of the staff was friendly, our server not so much. He didn’t smile and was short of words. The food was delicious and the restaurant was clean. The prices were fair.
Although there was only a few other patrons, we waited a long time to get our bill. The staff dissapeared for about 20 minutes. I had to ask the bartender to check out our table when he came behind the bar. We wanted dessert but at this point we had been there too long and just wanted leave - we had a joke that we would be there for another hour if we ordered it. We didn’t see our server after he gave us our meals.
I ordered the fish ceviche, and it was delicious! They also give you tortilla chips and salsa.

Very, very friendly staff, made us feel like we were their favorite customer. This was our first time there. Tired after a long hike and just got lucky and happened upon this place. Would definitely go again when in the area.

This place is legit amazing !!! We stayed a short drive away in Hill. Came for lunch - my enchiladas with mole were to die for. The black beans and rice were delicious. My hubby had steak tacos that were amazing. The margaritas are top notch. We even went back for drinks. Great experience !!
