I had a fantastic experience at Cielito Lindo! The food was absolutely delicious, and I highly recommend trying the steak tacos—they were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. I personally got the burrito, and it was huge, packed with tasty ingredients, and definitely enough to satisfy a big appetite. What really stood out was how well the staff handled our large party. Even with so many people, our waitress was super fast, attentive, and made sure everyone was served quickly and efficiently. Drinks were consistently refilled, and everyone seemed happy with their meals. The whole atmosphere felt welcoming, clean, and well-organized. Overall, Cielito Lindo is a place I would recommend to anyone looking for great Mexican food, big portions, and excellent customer service. Whether you’re coming with a small group or a big party, you’ll be impressed with how smooth and enjoyable the experience is. Definitely a spot I’ll be returning to!

This is probably one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area. Very good food. Service has always been decent. We’ve introduced friends to CL and they were very impressed.

Extremely rude owner and mediocre tacos. The music was on blast as if it were a club and people were dancing on tables. Very bizarre for a Mexican restaurant.

We ate here for a birthday dinner. The service was exceptional and the food was great. They even gave the birthday boy a free slice of cheese cake and sang. Great atmosphere.

If you want authenticity near downtown, I would go here! The food is good and the service is quick. We love coming here and getting tacos and a frozen margarita pitcher. We've had the same server everytime we've gone, she is so sweet and attentive. I wish I caught her name!

Great, authentic wholesome food, no frills with friendly service. Family owned and operated for several decades. Their rice & beans are both vegetarian. The margarita was fresh & delicious. Highly recommended!

Their food is one of the more authentic Mexican food places. I usually judge by the rice and theirs is good. Beans are delicious. Had the chicken mole enchiladas and it was fabulous.

Amo a cielito lindo! I’m newer to the MKE area & was recommended this spot. I have gone several times & will be a returning customer. Food is great, service is friendly & staff are attentive. I love supporting small Mexican businesses as a latina myself.
