“Great food I had the nachos, great service!!! We had an extra server stop and say, “He’s your server but please don’t hesitate” the margarita was excellent!!!!! I definitely will be back and the people I was with felt the same way! Good job Cancun“

“My Freemason lodge chose them to cater our festive board. After ordering 25 tacos, a burrito boat platter, and a few taco salads, there was hardly a crumb left. This is a hidden gem of Cincinnati and has been a favorite of mine since I was a child growing up in the area.“

“Ok I haven't been to taco bell in a while but in the past I always thought it was hit or miss as far as service and the food. But I went later this evening before close. Only one car in the drive thru. They were very quick to ask me to order when I was ready. I am actually really impressed. There were maybe two workers but they were very attentive, fast, and very professional. I went home, and im not going to lie. ..it was probably the best quality taco bell I had ever had! Everything turned out well beyond what i expected. There were napkins. And the sauce I ordered was well supplied. The food was hot. Tasted like they just made it. I just feel like my experiences at any restaurant have been pretty disappointing and I thought taco bell did amazing tonight. I'd have posted how it looked but it was gone before I got to this ? thanks guys!“

“Crown Cantina provided a exceptional dining experience last night. The kitchen is 100% gluten-free, offering a unique and refreshing change of pace. We started with the tostadas and salsa, which were delicious and had a nice kick. We also enjoyed the Hamachi, the Tijuanero (steak taco), and the large plate chicken enchiladas verde, all of which were made to order and full of flavor. The margaritas were also a highlight, with the ghost and guava margarita being a standout. All of their margaritas are crafted in-house, making them a healthier option. If you're looking for a high-end Mexican meal, Crown Cantina is a great choice.“

“Come and enjoy nice people and great food“

“Alex was amazing! Great food! Pineapple margaritas are to die for! Def recommend!“

“Excellent food ! The Sope s I had were fantastic. My husband’s burrito was exceptional and sauces we’re great too.“

“Delicious tacos!!!!!!!!!! Tried them outside Bleachers last night. Will definitely look for your truck.“

“Olla is one of my favorite places! Food is excellent! Quick service. In the spring, summer, and fall, I love sitting outside when it's not raining. I always take my out of town guests here.

My go to is Birria Guti Nachos!“

“Good place to grab a drink with a date i was impressed. Nice presentation and quite the show when drinks came out the drinks were amazing .

Maybe Uber there cause drinks tend to be a litte strong so your safe to get home enjoy!“

“bone fragments were in the chicken tacos I gave to my coworker, difficult to hype a restaurant when the food can choke someone.“

“Awesome food. Great prices ;)“

“Is the best Mexican food in Cincinnati? Definitely. In Ohio? Probably. In the US? Gotta be top 25. This place is truly a gem and I can’t say enough good things about it. Everything we had, which was a lot, was a 10/10.“

“Oh!!!! Such great food. My hubby and I lived in Mexico and needed authentic tacos and salsa. Michael and his wife are amazing chefs!!! We had a trio of tacos plus fish tacos and the best hibiscus margarita EVER. You can find us at Comal every Tuesday. Yes, I eat the Salsa with a spoon. Yummy!!!!!!!“

“Every time I am in town, I have ordered from this restaurant using Uber. This time I received a different product of what I have ordered. I was kind of sad, but when I looked at my phone, another uber driver was about to arrive 10 min after!! I was so confused, I thought I made a mistake and made two orders, but no! The restaurant sent me the correct order!! THANK YOU!! WONDERFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE!!“

“The enchiladas are divine!!!“

“Loved this place completely until today. I've been here probably 40-50 times in the last 2 years. It's always been pretty good and good service. Today I met a friend there for dinner and we got Ismaelas a server. He got mad at us because our drinks weren't right. All we did was ask for something different. He did not like that. We got our new drinks after about 10 minutes. We ordered our food and he even repeated back to us what we were ordering as he was writing it down. Once our food came mine had onions and pico. Neither of which I eat. We waited a few minutes for him to come back around and I told him about my issue. He looked mad that I did not want the onions on my food. Literal just gave me a dirty look.I told him to just take it back and I do not need a replacement. My friend did eat his tacos. He didn't come back over to our table for a while. My buddy ran out of his drink for maybe 15-20 minutes. We told the lady at the counter but she didn't seem to care. Hopefully someone does. I've brought a lot of people to this establishment and I myself have spent a ton of money there bringing my family of 5. Ive left good reviews and always spoke highly of this place. I've always bragged about how they have it figured out. Well, today has somewhat ruined it for me. Never once were we rude or out of line. I'm guessing Ismael was having a bad day. Maybe I'll come back later in the future, maybe not. That's sucks because I really like their food.“

“Just ordered Bubbakoo's today and Chipotle no longer exists to me. This restaurant outdoes them in every way. I would marry this restaurant if I could. I ordered a taco salad with fried cauliflower and I melted as soon as I took my first bite. The crispiness of the cauliflower was perfectly complimented by the perfectly cooked beans, delicious sauce and guacamole. The way my food was packaged made it feel like I was opening a present. I think I'm in love.

Vegetarian options: Fried cauliflower is available and super delicious.“

“Excellent authentic Mexican cuisine. Food truck meets Abuelas kitchen. The only place I go to when I want that authentic fresh taste. Definitely needs another location in Clifton or even on the banks or OTR. More traffic more for great food. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Extremely disappointed that you no longer have hour on the weekends. This is my favorite restaurant. Planned on coming for my birthday. I will rethink.“

“Very good and great service“

“First time there we celebrated a birthday, and WOW, these folks made it memorable and fun!! Best time ever! This is not a typical Mexican restaurant. The menu is loaded with amazing food from numerous countries in S. America. Huge portions (food AND drink!) at reasonable prices and everything we tried was over-the-top delish! We've returned num times...our new favorite place to eat with consistently great food/drinks!“

“bone fragments were in the chicken tacos I gave to my coworker, difficult to hype a restaurant when the food can choke someone.“

“This is the best Mexican food in Cincy and NKY. Drinks are phenomenal too. I highly recommend it.“

“Great Food!!! Love the Mexican Pad Thai.“

“The food is delicious, generous portions and great service. One of my favorite places to eat in Cincinnati.“

“Great food, great service. Loved their nacho trio and 3 taco combo. Great GFDF options available.“

“El Barril is a really awesome Mexican joint we found in Mount Adam's in Cincinnati. It had both indoor and outdoor seating but on this day we decided on the inside. The restaurant looks really super fun with lots of tremendous decor with even the chairs being unique (and comfortable too.) They had a lot of unique takes on Mexican dishes (lots of unique burgers on the menu for one) as well as some classic favourites. We started with an appetizer of Buffalo Chicken Dip which was a straightforward take on it. It had lot's of chicken, a very flavourful but not too spicy Buffalo sauce, and some blue cheese mixed in. It was served with chips. This was as good of take as I've had on a Buffalo Dip that I've had from anyplace. For my main course I tried the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos which was 3 hard tacos served with grilled shrimp topped with spicy Bang Bang sauce as well as cilantro. This was very unique but very delicious all the same. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and that sauce I would describe as zesty with a slight punch but not too much. Really liked them a lot. My wife enjoyed her Margarita as well as her food (I believe it was a pork dish but I forgot to take a picture). This was a super fantastic lunch and I for one can't wait to come back.“

“Muy buenos precios y ambiente familiar“

“Excellent service every time, food is always delicious.“

“We went here for my husbands 34th birthday…The service was great fast and well mannered servers …Food was great hot and Tasty and prices are not that expensive…but I loved sitting on the patio able to see The sunset ….I recommend to anybody looking for good Mexican food..“

“Excellent food,service and price. Very friendly service! I will definitely go back again.“

“Always good food, big portions and friendly service!“

“Es el mejor restaurant de comida auténtica mexicana al q he ido.. la atención y la comida son excelentes y un menú muy variado.“

“Great food , not too heavy“

“Love the place, been going for years on occasions and getting the same dishes every time. Had the best server I've had last night (was not paying attention to the name but a man with a mustache and scruff) who asked me the first time if I wanted to add carrot puree in place of the cheese (no dairy) on the cauliflower tacos. I've been served them so many times and nobody had ever recommended that. 10/10 service and food, they were so much better with that puree on them“

“We had Gomez cater our wedding & it was a HIT! We booked them immediately at our taste testing! Jen with her communication was top tier & so friendly! Thank you Gomez team for all you did!“

“Great place . First time visiting. The decor is beautiful and if the weather were a bit warmer we would have sat outside in the courtyard area. Promptly greeted and I believe we were speaking with the owner. He told us everything is in house made. The tortillas are made in the corner of the restaurant at a mini station. Definitely can taste the difference . Our tacos were so delicious and the presentation was so nice . Love supporting local restaurants and we will definitely be back.“

“Food is one of the best in the world. I have never tried something so delicious and rich. It's really amazing. We tried Gordita and Quesadilla...its soooooo nice. 😍“

“Amazing Tacos😋 best in town“

“best Mexican restaurant in Covington. our waitress was so nice and always being helpful. food was spot on. leaving $20 tip was worth every dollar. thanks for a great experience“

“The margaritas are so good and reasonably priced. The verde sauce and cheese dip are highlights! The service is always great and the owner is so kind and personable.“

“They Have The Nicest People Running This Truck On Top Of An Undeniably Delicious Burrito And Tacos. I Didn’t Know They Made A Change To Their Payment As (It’s Zelle And Cash Only Now )Which Is Fine Now That I Know My ATM Is At The Corner It’s Just A Small Additional Stop. The Guy Recognized Me As A Regular Customer And Told Me I Can Catch Them On The Next One But With My Schedule Changing I Knew It Could Be A While Before I Got Back Down That Way So I Just Couldn’t Have That On My Conscious I Just Hope He Knows I Was Just Hangry And Overwhelmed With Traffic But Grateful For The Extended Offer And Amazing Burrito ! They Also Added A Little Table You Can Eat At If You Wanted To Eat Quickly Before Going Back To Work Or Something“

“Fresh outstanding delicious flavors every time. Generous portions attractively presented accompanied by homemade outstandingly fresh salsa! Great guacamole and perfect tortilla chips!The barbacoa is tender and high quality with just the right balance of spice & sauce! No better chicken tostada anywhere! The stone bowl is a must try, filled to the top with everything from cactis to chorizo & shrimp and drizzled with a roasted red pepper sauce that’s knockout! Enjoy! I do!“

“Come for the food, come back again and again for the incredible staff. My family spends most Friday nights at Cancun and they are so inviting and the atmosphere is fantastic. We've tried everything on the menu and have yet to be disappointed. Tony and all the staff are SO amazing to us and treat us just like family, even with all the wild little kids we bring. The margaritas are unmatched (the best you can get), if you want something a little different try the sangria (SO flavorful). There is something for absolutely everyone on the menu and if you want to make changes, they ALWAYS accommodate. If you want to do Fiesta Friday or Taco Tuesday, go to Cancun! Also, go for your birthday, be sure you tell the staff. Thank me later 😊“

“awesome place! great food, great margaritas...Clean and friendly environment“

“I love this restaurant!! The food is outstanding. My family and I have NEVER had a bad meal there. The waiters are fantastic and we are always shocked at how fast our food arrives. This is by far my favorite Mexican restaurant in Cincinnati!“

“I am in love with Curritos healthy delicious abundant food all in one bowl! I am a health food freak and im so happy to find them at Currito. I can taste the good health lol. Please open another Currito in Eastgate!! Me and my husband are your biggest fans! Thank you very much! We need more of these please!“

“Muy buenos precios y ambiente familiar“

“Solid experience. We’ve been twice. This location was packed both times. Staff was great, service was great, food was fresh. The pairings of the menu items I thought a little abstract. Both times (different items) the flavors have blended really, really well. About $15 per dish. Well worth the money.“
