Restaurantji's Lakewood Mexican restaurant picks are here.
“It's never a breeze going out to dinner with a 5 and a 3 year old but the whole staff at El Carnicero did an amazing job and made sure the experience was smooth sailing from the start! The guacamole was delicious and fresh and they made sure there was never a shortage of chips for both the guacamole and the girls. The Floutas and the Barbacoa were both indescribable outside the word delightful. We finished with the fried ice cream. I could go on and on about the food but the short and sweet of it is its on another level from any restaurants nearby. The most important part of the meal to highlight was the staff though. The server was very helpful and made sure the meal was timed perfectly for us and the kids. The supporting staff was very friendly and even gave us some tips on other restaurants they recommend in other areas of Cleveland. The hosts upfront were super friendly to the kids and left them with all smiles. No matter what aspect of a restaurant you care about, it's a guarantee El Carnicero will check that box and leave you with only one regret... that you didn't come here sooner!“

“Crazy it took me this long to stop in!My bros wife was raving about the spare rib tacos, rightfully so. They are fantastically scrumptious.Fajita taco salad was not bad, made with a flour tortilla bowl, which also serves as your dipping nachos.Carnitas was tasty. Thats how I judge new Mexican spots, this passed the test l.Atmosphere: May as well have been in Mexico! Cozy.I shall return“
“I always love coming to this place. The food always taste so good, and their pricing is not that bad. The atmosphere of the restaurant is super cool, and they have Horchata, which I really like to drink. The staff is always super friendly and very helpful, and the store itself is always clean. 10/10Parking: There’s a few spots on the street, but chances are those spots are already taken by somebody else. If they are, you can always park on a side road“
“First time going to Taco Tonto's in years! I think the last time I went was to the Kent location and I believe this was my first time at this location. The food was very delicious! The place was busy but the one server on shift did a great job serving everyone! I'll definitely be back to Taco Tonto's!“
“Everyone there was supper nice and I enjoyed all my food! This was my first time coming and the margaritas are really good too! You have to try the frozen raspberry one!Vegetarian options: They have a section for vegetarian options!Parking: The parking lot is a little on the smaller side, but you should always be able to find a spot!Kid-friendliness: My daughter loved the taco and they gave her a kids menu to color while we waited for the food!“
