“We went to the aquarium and I was starving and none of the nearby options really spoke to me. So we started walking and ended up here. It instantly reminded me of a neighborhood place in Baltimore, but even better because they sell booze here!I got the flautas platter and a vegetarian taco for me and my daughter to share and we couldn't finish it. It was amazing! Probably the best meal I've had in the Cincinnati area.Don't sleep on this place!Kid-friendliness: They have highchairs“

“Cancun Mexican Bar & Grill is a solid Mexican restaurant in a great location near downtown Cincinnati. The service here us quick and the servers are all very welcoming and friendly, the interior of the restaurant is charming and contributes to a fun atmosphere, and the food is great (not the best I’ve had, but still great). I’ll also NEVER complain about free chips & salsa.“

“This was not my first time at a Hot Head Burritos but it was my first time in a while. The Newport location was fantastic. We had 7 people in our party and we all loved our food. I had a toasted burrito. The sauce that I chose was the southwest ranch and will definitely get it again. Unlike other burrito locations, Hot Head offers a lot of sauces/flavor options. The staff were all friendly and attentive. I am glad that we chose to go there and will become regulars. Thank you for great food and service.“

“We’ve been here multiple times and have always had a positive experience. However, last night put the icing on the cake. Not only was the food delicious and quick, our server(Chris) went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. He made my margarita absolutely perfect. The rest of the staff extremely friendly and the manger even checked on us a few times to make sure everything was going well. We will definitely be back and wanted to thank the staff and especially our server, Chris, for giving us the BEST restaurant experience.“
