We'll make this one of our regular spots!!

Cielo Cocina Mexicana was a mix of hits and misses, but the standout dishes were good enough that…read moreI'll definitely be back! ​The Highlights: * ​Calamar & Jalapeño: The absolute star of the night. This is easily one of the best fried calamari dishes in town and worth every penny. I wished the jalapeños had a bit more heat, but the flavor and texture were incredible. * ​Baja Chimi: The sauce on this was phenomenal--so good that next time I visit, I'm going to see if I can get this sauce on nachos instead of standard cheese! Mixed feeling: * ​Quesabirria Taco Plate: The consommé was rich, deeply flavorful, and great for dipping. However, the birria meat inside the tacos was on tougher side and chewy rather than tender, which held the dish back. ​The Misses: * ​Fish Ceviche: The biggest lowlight--the fish was surprisingly tough and missed the mark on texture. ​* Nachos with Carne Asada: Pretty underwhelming. Adding carne asada was a steep $10+ upcharge, yet the portion of meat was tiny and the overall flavor was bland.

The chips are refilled at no additional cost, which is such a nice touch. The environment is lovely, and the waitresses are warm and friendly. My favorite is definitely the tacos, especially the sea bass taco. Every dish is packed with flavor and left me feeling full and satisfied for a long time. I'm so happy I discovered this place and would highly recommend it! I normally don't eat spicy food at all, but I make an exception here. The dishes have a nice kick, but the spice level is still very tolerable. Absolutely worth a visit!

The paella could have been a little more crispy but that's just my personal preference. Definitely make sure to order the paella first since it will take some time to make before you get it. Overall I had a great time :)

We truly hope that this place bounces back!…read more We ordered the cheese board and found that the pieces of manchego get smaller and smaller; the wedges themselves and now how slim they are sliced. When we first came here, they were good sized portions and there were 4 of them. When we made a comment about how small they have become,...the waiter actually said that they get compliments on how small their portion sizes are from the Spanish guests. We looked around, not one Spaniard in the joint. And I doubt they would agree with these portion sizes; has the waiter ever been to Europe and seen the boards they offer: crazy good! We also ordered the Rabbit Paella and two main components were missing; fava beans & chorizo. Plus. It was undercooked; the sides of paella should be crispy. Hope they get better!

The service was also impressively quick, we had our drinks and food out in no time, which was perfect after a long shopping day. We started with Moscow mules, and they were perfectly balanced and refreshing. The chips and salsa while we waited were a great touch and super satisfying! For food, we ordered the carne asada, smoked brisket tacos, and the southwest chopped salad and YUM. Everything was absolutely delicious. The flavors were spot on, the portions were generous, and we genuinely enjoyed every bite. Safe to say... we left our plates completely clean! Overall, such a great experience with amazing food, fast service, and a warm atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

The first thing to know is that it can be a little tricky to find if you're not familiar with the area. It's located on the second floor of the mall, and the easiest way to access it is through the parking garage. I really loved the decor. It was clean, modern, and had a great atmosphere. I was greeted by a very friendly hostess who explained that to-go orders are normally placed online, but she happily got the manager to help me. He was incredibly helpful and made the ordering process easy. The food was really good! I ordered the jackfruit tacos with rice and beans, along with the guacamole sampler. I didn't realize beforehand that it was more Tex-Mex style, so that was a little different than I expected. The guacamole itself was good, but I'm personally not a fan of cheese and some of the additional toppings mixed into guacamole, so it just wasn't my preference. That doesn't mean it wasn't good. It just wasn't for me. The jackfruit tacos, however, were fantastic. I absolutely love jackfruit, and these were some of the best I've had other than the ones I make. They could have used a little more spice, but they were still delicious. And the chips? Completely addicting! I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in Seattle to try more items on the menu

My husband "wasn't very hungry" ordered a beef burrito with meat, rice, beans and a red sauce. It was huge. He ate the whole thing. He said it was so good he couldn't stop eating. So much for not being hungry. A huge shout out to the manager. Thank you so much for offering to replace a taco that had a pork flavor I wasn't used to. The restaurant was clean, the food is worth going back and the people are very friendly. This may be our new, next favorite restaurant.

Overall, I'd say the value is solid for a sit down location, but for tacos, it's pretty pricy and not particularly high quality. Would definitely opt for a taco truck or stand if I was craving Mexican, but if you're looking for a bite after some weekend shenanigans, this spot will scratch that itch. You order at the counter before seating yourself, but the staff will bus your tables. There's plenty of parking available and the salsa bar also has some fresh radishes and roasted(?) carrots that I found to be surprisingly well seasoned. Carne Asada Fries: Fries weren't as crispy as I'd like, but the toppings were solid. Beef was decently tender and they were generous with the amount of guacamole. It was my first time seeing beans on fries, but I thought it was pretty solid. Churros: These are definitely pre-made churros that get re-fried. I continue to be on the hunt for fresh churros in the Seattle area, but I wasn't mad at these. The custard had a nice mouthfeel and creamy sweetness, but the whipped cream was a little odd in that it didn't taste like anything at all. Mulitas: I wanted a little more meat in these, but they aren't bad. I like that some of the cheese crisps up a bit on the edges of the tortilla. If I was a little drunk, these would be elite.

You know, the kind of place where you sit down thinking, "We'll just have one drink," and suddenly it's three tequilas later and you're talking about your childhood dreams. Speaking of tequila... WOW. The tequila selection here is basically a library, and the bartenders are the very enthusiastic librarians. They know everything. My partner and I were lovingly escorted through a full tequila tour before our food even arrived, and honestly? By the time dinner showed up, life was beautiful and all decisions felt correct. Needless to say, we were having an excellent time. The food definitely holds its own too. Everything came out fresh, beautifully plated, and tasting like someone in the kitchen actually cares (which is always a plus). We split a few dishes, including the Carne Asada and the Pescado. The Carne Asada was good, though it could've used just a bit more seasoning, nothing tragic, just a gentle nudge from "good" to "wow." The Pescado, however, was fantastic. Topped with olives, capers, and tomatoes... I mean, how do you even mess that up? You don't. And they didn't. Bonus points: they're open late, until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. So if you find yourself wandering the streets of Bellevue after hours, questioning your life choices and craving tequila and good food, congratulations, you've found your place. Overall: great vibes, strong drinks, solid food, and bartenders who will happily teach you more about tequila than you ever planned to know. I'd absolutely come back, and probably let them "educate" me again.

I don't often get any Mexican food on the Eastside since I just haven't found a good one yet. And sadly, I have to admit that I still have not found any worth the drive across the lake. I ordered one of their burritos, hefty pricing but that's what you'd expect on this side of town. Not the heftiest burrito though for its price, but filling enough. Taste wise it was as a Yelp 3 Star describes, "OK". I've had a lot of Mexican food across the whole West Coast, and this one isn't any special. But of course I will have to try again another day.

The carnitas was my favorite out of the three tacos, lots of flavor! It had a touch of bitterness to it but my favorite overall, 4/5 The birria was good but was not as flavorful as I'd expected and the meat itself was a little dry, 3/5 The carne asada felt similar, yummy but also a it dry, 3/5. I haven't had a ton of horchata but I thought it was delicious. It was a balanced sweet and spiced, 5/5. I could see it being a little too sweet for some people but I personally loved it The godfather burrito wasn't anything too special, but the ingredients all felt high quality, 3.5/5 I love a chunky guacamole and this was quite smooth. It lacked flavor other than avocado but was clearly fresh, 2/5

For $10, it was a pretty generous portion. Service was standard. He wasn't super busy but there was definitely a steady flow. Food wise: it could have been great if it was cooked longer. I got the potato quesadilla, and the potato was still cold (looks like they use frozen potatoes for this). The tortilla was chewy and a little tough. The flavors were good though, and the salsa was delicious. When we brought it home, we put it in the air fryer to toast it and it got really good. Crispy quesadilla with soft and gooey center. There was a few people sitting in the area so it wasn't loud or feel cramped or anything. Overall, it was ok, I might come back as the food was good after reheating.

The food is quite good. I wouldn't call it authentically Mexican, but rather a contemporary, slightly elevated interpretation of Mexican cuisine. Personally, I would have loved a bit more of those bold, authentic Mexican flavors to come through, but overall, the dishes were enjoyable and beautifully presented. The staff was genuinely warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout the evening. I did change my mind shortly after being seated and asked to move from indoors to the patio. Our hostess, Aguilera, gave me a quick look that said, "Really? Already?" but was very gracious and accommodating. In the end, moving outside was definitely the right call! The wooden chairs indoors look beautiful but become a little uncomfortable after sitting for a while. The carved seating cocoons along the walls are visually striking and add a lot of character, although they're probably better for admiring than for a long, leisurely dinner. The outdoor seating, on the other hand, was very comfortable. The biggest opportunity for improvement is the acoustics. Conversations really travel and bounce around the interior, which naturally leads everyone to speak louder just to hear each other, creating a bit of a vicious cycle. During a busy dinner service, it can get quite noisy. That said, I'd absolutely come back and happily bring friends or visitors for a memorable dinner. My preference would definitely be a nice-weather evening with outdoor seating, where you can really enjoy the view and atmosphere. Pro tip: Ask for a Carajillo! It's a Mexican espresso cocktail that can be surprisingly hard to find done well. They have one here, and it was delicious, beautifully presented, and one of the highlights of the evening.
