    We came in here on Saturday around lunch time. The environment was very relaxed. The servers were polite and the food was delightful. My husband ordered the deluxe dinner while I ordered the chimichanga with beef fajita. It was delicious! Afterwards we ordered a four count of the sopaipillas and they were incredible! I definitely recommend trying this place out.

    Beef Fajita

    The workers were super nice here and the food was pretty good. I really enjoyed the nachos and they were super filling. I also ordered the beef fajitas and it was good. The beef was a bit tough. They were able to sit us down super quick (we had a party of 7) and would constantly check up on us!

    The service at this restaurant used to be amazing, along with the food. It is a great memory with my father. Now when you walk in the door, the gentleman that greets you is so miserable. The servers aren't very friendly. Look at this sad plate of beef fajitas. The presentation is terrible. The outside patio is nice.

    Food has no flavor I order the cielito parrillada and a tres leches cake paid 66 dollars missed the beans in the order and half of the food and the cake is not tres leches I do have a chocolate which the cake they gave me ha chocolate if y'all don't have something then just say y'all don't but they obviously just care about getting the money will definitely be filing a complaint because it's unfair what they are doing and the restaurant is pretty dirty I think an inspection is needed

    Came here after a baseball game, great place. The servers were very nice. The food was pretty good, and the overall feel of the restaurant was good.

    I have a pretty basic matrix for deciding if I like Mexican food: Salsa. Beans Margaritas Quality of the meat Like movies and wine, we all have a different opinion of what makes Mexican food good. I grew up eating Tex Mex, so it has a special place in my heart, but I'm agreeable to all the other variations. Cielioto brings a little heaven to Mexican food! The building is the first thing you notice. If you're like me, you'll anticipate that if they put as much effort into their meals as they do the restaurant, the meal will be amazing. We began nibbling on the salsas, starting with the red. It was not chunky, not watery, and was not super spicy, leaning toward mild. It had some cilantro, but not much. The green salsa was a perfect blend of flavor and consistency. Both had great flavor, but I think the green was my favorite. We ordered the queso dip as an appetizer, and were pleasantly surprised to discover it came with a side of sliced jalapeños, just like the nachos I ate as a kid! The queso was not littered with much green or red bits, and the chucks in it were super easy to navigate around. My teenager commented about how much he enjoyed not having to fish "scary things" out of his dip! For our entrees, we ordered a cheese enchilada plate with red sauce and mixed fajitas for two. The enchiladas were simple, Tex-Mex style, with ample cheese, refried beans and Spanish rice, and plenty of red sauce. Exactly what we wanted! The were tasty enough my son took his leftovers home for a midnight snack. The fajitas were good, as well. But, before I start on the fajitas, I have a side note of praise for our waiter. I ordered the fajitas "without cilantro", since cilantro is of the devil. Our waiter went and mixed us up a special batch of pico de Gallo without cilantro, something I deeply appreciated! Fajitas--they were ordinary chicken and beef fajitas. Not overly robust, not underwhelming, but standard, reliable fajitas. The meat was good and had minimal fat, the onions sizzled on the skillet, the guacamole was great, and the tortillas were homemade. What more can you ask for? This restaurant experience was fantastic. And I'm not the only one who thinks so. The place was full of locals. Tons of locals, all of whom the staff called my name and fist bumped as if lifelong friends. The locals know what's up, and this place is up on my list of places to return!

    Steak Fajita half order nachos

    Place aight. I've been here for lunch a bunch of times and my go to is the steak fajita nachos. It's not the best I've ever had but it's good - and I promise you won't leave still hungry. They give you good portions for your dollar. The full order is massive I always need a to-go box. The half order is just right but it depends on how hungry you are. I've also had the enchiladas and street tacos and those are good too. The staff is very attentive and always coming by the fill your water(s)/drink(s). The salsa and chips are good which I always use with my main dish. Ask for a side of jalapenos and some tabasco sauce and go to town on the nachos you wont be disappointed. Get ready for a nacho nap!

    The food is good, very reasonably priced, and their house margaritas go down almost too easily :)
