Cielito Lindo Mexican Restaurant

As a native from California I can honestly say this this the worst Mexican restaurant I've ever been to in my entire life. Not only was the food inedible, the owner had the gaul to confront me and nearly start a fight with me in the restaurant when I returned the food. Can't say I've ever experienced this type of aggression at a restaurant before. AVOID this restaurant at all costs! These people are crazy.

Fantastic food (authentic, fresh, flavorful), nice vibe, friendly staff

Food was good but it was really warm inside. Make sure you order tacos “grande” with let, tom and guacamole or sour cream.

Great service great food!!! Love the fish tacos and empanadas!

I ordered chicken tacos, an elote and guacamole and to be very honest I will not be going back. Staff were very nice and welcoming and the place was very clean. The chicken for the tacos had no seasoning whatsoever. Out of all three things I can say the Elote was my favorite.

Food is amazing every time we have gone there !!! Fresh Food and real Mexican cuisine!

I ordered a shrimp empanada tex mex style. The shrimp had no seasoning on it at all. It ruined the whole empanada. I ended up opening up the empanada and removing all the shrimp and just eating the vegetables. I would not eat here again

I’m from Southern California, so I can’t help being a Mexican food snob here on the east coast. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by Cielito Lindo. The food here has been much better than most Mexican places I’ve tried on the east coast.

This place has AMAZING flavors. Where they go wrong is the actual business running part of it. I have ordered takeout here probably 20 times and have never once received all I paid for. Even when it’s an order with 2 things on it. Always missing something. I keep trying again hoping they’ll get better but it never does

Very comfortable, clean and excellent service!

I just wanted to leave a review to laugh at the dude who cried that this isn't authentic Mexican but then said they should be using a Greek cheese on the elotes. Definitely sounds like he's the expert on authentic Mexican..

I'm not sure where other people have been eating lately but this place is far from authentic Mexican. The cooks aren't even Mexican but they think most people can't tell or care. I feel like people are being paid to give good reviews to low quality places like these. The refried beans taste like nothing, same as the rice They taste like unseasoned canned blenderized beans with water and sprinkled with a little mozzarella cheese. The burrito had hard mozzarella covering it. The orchata was tasteless and the elote had parmesan cheese on it and that's when I knew I had effed up. They could've at least used feta cheese but I don't think they care enough or maybe I've been spoiled by authentic Mexican food restaurants elsewhere.

It is a nice little restaurant. The server was friendly and checked on me throughout my meal. I ordered the mole burrito with steak. It was delicious. I will definitely be stopping again when I am in the area.
