I wanted to like it but was disappointed. I had the steak tacos and they were not great, nor authentic street tacos. The meat was dry and tasted like roast, and the corn tortillas were just awful. They disintegrated into a million pieces when I tried to pick it up. The service was a bit rude too.

I ordered the steak tacos and the meat was more like roast meat than steak. Meat was dry, too. These tacos are NOT street tacos!

I ordered a steak bowl with rice tomato’s corn onion and cilantro. It was delicious! Everything was fresh. A little overpriced but well worth it. I would definitely recommend.

Good food. I ordered a torta and a burrito with cheese came out. Not what I wanted or what a torta is.

I need to be honest , this portion and size should not cost over $9, even considering today’s inflation. I understand businesses need to adjust, but this kind of pricing feels unreasonable and damages the reputation of Findlay Market and, by extension, Cincinnati itself. I even asked three times if it was really $9, and the answer was still yes.
In a true free market, competition keeps prices fair. Right now, this feels like a monopoly, and I believe Findlay Market would benefit greatly from another burrito shop to bring balance and give customers better value. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but this is the honest fact.

The food was good, however the pricing was not well advertised I ordered what should have been a $2.95 vegetarian taco and they ended up charging a $3 surcharge for guac and rice and beans? It was not advertised that I would be charged double what was on the sign based on what I put in my taco. I would have appreciated them advertising the true cost, because I felt scammed by the pricing practices.

Didn’t eat here but wanted to point out that they do offer veggie tacos and burritos in case you’re vegan and craving some Mexican food — you can omit cheese etc.

Mama Hizo at Findlay Market! Located in the middle section inside, this spot has become my go-to most days, especially on weekends, for an absolutely spectacular breakfast. Their menu is packed with everything from burgers and hot dogs to chicken tender sandwiches, burritos, tacos, nachos, taco salads, and more. Don’t miss out on their chips with pico de gallo or queso, or the incredible stuffed corn muffins with salsa queso. I love this place—great food, great prices. Make it your favorite!

Not the authentic street Tacos I had hoped for yet good nonetheless. What Mama Lo Hizo is great at is the 'adobo spice blend with cracked black pepper'. That stuff is phenomenal and everything I'm in Cincinnati I make sure to stop in and grab a few.

I'm here a couple times a month for lunch. The food is really quite good, for the money. It's not exquisite, all local, all craft/organic/exotic but it's well above what you'll get at chipotle or similar. The staff are always friendly, and I can be sure my lunch is going to be satisfying.

Bad bad bad. Super unfriendly and rude staff. We ordered food today and the service lady added spicy food and one person who was with us almost died. They did nothing. They didn't want to change the food. We had to take him to the doctor. That is not done with tourists. Don't even think about eating in this place. The food was bad, all spicy, and as if damaged.
