The food was delicious Salsa was not hot but flavorful. The fried avocado was great! My husband enjoyed his enchiladas and the cheesecake was mouth watering!!!! Divine taste and light, homemade. The restaurant is like eating in your own kitchen. Nayeay was an amazing server Service was fast and accurate. When we are back in town, will be back! Thank you! Brent and Donna read more

The salsa is great!! The ceviche is out of this world!! The chile rellano was ok but different than I am use to. The place is clean. And the staff left a little to be desired. But I would definitely come back and try more food here. read more

Enjoyed our lunch at this small unassuming Mexican cafe riced away off the beaten path. The cilantro fish is spectacular, made even better with the homemade tortillas. Large portions. Service was friendly and prompt. read more

We returned to Cilantro to give them another go. The service was good and what I tried this trip was good. I had the Tacos Al Carbon. The carne asada was well cooked, but the tortillas were a little dry. I mixed the beef with refried beans which made it even better. They do have better spanish rice than most, so that was pleasing as well. We also had the chicken and shrimp fajitas. It was pretty good, but I wish the onions were more well caramelized. I did really like their chips and salsa. The red salsa was really unique and wasn't too hot. It was a nice evening with Christmas decorations that really added to the charm of the place. Cilantro left me with memories of a great evening out with my family. We will be back. read more

This place is pretty middd, the service was good, nice ambiance inside, but the food was just okay. The chips and salsa were my favorite part of the meal, the red salsa was very flavorful, and they weren't shy about refilling the chips. I ordered the beef fajitas and shrimp which turned out to be pretty lack luster, the beef itself was dry and didn't have much flavor. They also only included 2 shrimps which considering their size, what's even the point. read more

Really enjoyed my Fajita Chicken Enchilada, which came with rice & beans (as all Tex-Mex meals should). In fact, everyone in my party of 7 enjoyed their meals. Our waiter was great! This is a great place to get some delicious Tex-Mex. What Cilantro is NOT good for is to go watch more college football after an A&M game. One small TV, and we had to request a channel change to get the obvious must-see game. Multiple times the broadcast exited and it went to a DirectTV channel listing page, apparently caused by a ghost playing with the remote. read more

We got here early Friday so we had the place to ourselves. Service was great. I got beef enchiladas with red sauce. The beef is pretty spicy. My wife got cheese enchiladas with cheese sauce. CHEESE OVERLOAD! You get a lot of food. We couldn't finish ours. We each got their special margaritas. Good. A little sweet. Overall I like the place and the food. read more

Our first time visit to visit was when we moved our kiddo in to A&M - so today we decided it was only fitting to close the CStat experience with a final Visit. The food and service are amazing. Daniel was so nice and attentive - great service! But let me tell you, the fried avocado (mine was stuffed with chicken, but there are other options) is a work of art. If you're a fan of avocados and deliciousness - do yourself a favor with this one. Yum! read more

Cilantro Mexican Grill - Fried Avocado Plate - Mexican Near Me - Bryan, Texas

Cilantro is on the edge of downtown Bryan, and offers legit straight-up Tex Mex in a casual atmosphere and fair prices. Chips and salsa were good, with a particularly nice and smoky red sauce. My tacos al carbon dinner was good, with nice flour tortillas and tasty charro beans. Excellent service. And if you happen to be a big fan of Frida Kahlo -- think you'll like the decor... :) read more

Delicious food and friendly staff! The salsas are very tasty and the service is excellent.

The salsa was great! They didn't have many options on the menu and overall nothing taste fresh. The cheese was chunky not fresh. So it was okay but could be better I will definitely not be going back. read more

Good food. Everything we've had has been great... I like all the enchiladas. Good/friendly service. Can get crowded.

Food is pretty top notch Always get delivery so can't comment on in-house Orders are packed and shipped correctly and quality is read more

OK Everyone! This restaurant is sooo good. All of the food we ordered tasted like it was made from scratch. We went at an off hour so there was only a few guest eating. The service was great! It did take some time for the food to come out, but we didn't mind because it was worth the wait! We ordered the stuffed poblano and shrimp and poblano enchiladas. When you go, ask for Cristi! She will take EXCELLENT care of you. read more

Do NOT go here if youre looking for even decent Mexican food!! Y'all, I can't believe the reviews and stars after trying to eat here. The salsa was decent tasting but so watery it was a mess. Margaritas that are a mix or wine. Then the waitress brings my fajitas about 5 mins before the rest of our food! The shrimp were terrible and overcooked, like rubber. The beef wasn't very flavorful either. The tortillas had zero flavor even though they appeared to be homemade. The chicken flautas were soggy and didn't taste at all! The guacamole was store bought even! Take your money elsewhere for good food, we couldn't even finish ours. I really wished it was as good as the previous reviews made it out to be. read more

Cilantro Mexican Grill - Lunch Specials: Speedy Gonzalez and the Enchilada Plate - Mexican Near Me - Bryan, Texas

Very good food, reasonable prices and excellent service. Recommend the poblano chicken!

I used to really enjoy the food and service here. I went to the restaurant last night and will never go here again. The service was extremely slow and there were little black bugs flying all around the table and flying onto our food. Hard pass. read more

Our party of 12 family members ate at this restaurant after celebrating my niece's graduation from Texas A&M. This was her request. And now I know why. The food was absolutely delicious!!! Everyone in our party had something different. The food presentation was mouth-watering. It was colorful and well-balanced. I ordered the Shrimp Poblano Enchiladas with creamy poblano sauce, charro beans and rice. There were shrimp in every bite of the enchiladas and the right amount of the delicious poblano sauce. The rice and beans were also cooked well. The green and red salsa was excellent as well. My husband's Beef Short Ribs with grilled onions looked delicious as well. Even the sweet tea was good. Not overly sweet and the perfect balance with ice. I was too full so I did not order dessert. The staff were pleasant and accommodating. And the restrooms were very clean and spacious. Because I do not live in the area and my niece has graduated my return is unlikely. But I had to write this review for those who live in the area. It is definitely worth a visit. The food is made with love. read more

Very disappointing after reading other reviews. Terrible margarita and fajitas and queso were both average at best. The first item I ordered was still on the menu but no longer being offered. read more

We are from out of town and trying to find something to eat at 8 pm. This location is near the quaint downtown area with lots of parking. The restaurant had families, college students and was very welcoming and had plenty of seating. The food was great! It was hot, flavorful and the service was excellent. We would come here again when in Bryan. read more

Came here for the first time with my family. We ordered the Carne Asada fries (heart attack messy delicious fries), chicken Quesadilla (nothing special), Chicken Pablano (pretty delicious, but chicken is really thin), Ranchera Chicken (flavorful), and fried Carnitas (flavorful, but pieces were tough to chew because it was kind of dry). Overall, food is pretty delicious and for a decent price. Staff are fast and friendly. Spacious location and small parking lot. read more

Went here with a couple of friends after First Friday and it was super yummy! The service was great and super close to where first Friday was held. It was busy but we got seated within 30 minutes for a table of 11. They offer complementary chips and salsa. The quesadilla was very fulfilling and I even had leftovers. read more

So good! Great amount of food for the price. Salsa was served hot (temperature-wise), which is not my favorite. Boyfriend got cheese enchiladas, but the quality of the cheese was questionable (looked like nacho cheese?) I loved my meal, though! If you like quality enchiladas, I would avoid theirs! read more

Cilantro Mexican Grill - Stuffed grilled chicken (sauce on side) - Mexican Near Me - Bryan, Texas

It's your typical Tex-Mex near downtown Bryan, TX. I got the Chile Rellanó and it was good. The rice was flavorful but the refried beans tasted like bland refried beans. It wasn't very busy, so I am a little disappointed in the amount of time they came to our table. Chips needed to be refilled. We order queso and got 5 chips for 7 of us. The queso was good however, we just used the tortillas from the chips and salsa. The margarita was typical, but nothing to write home about. It was for sure pact with tequila. Which in a lot of restaurants in Texas that seems to be missing. My grandbabies loved the food and it was definitely kid friendly! read more

When I'm in Bryan/CS, I typically head to Cooper's for BBQ, but decided to try Cilantro's on my last visit. WOW!!! This place rated as "Life Altering" on my foodie scale! The stuffed grilled chicken was phenomenal! Super tender and the shrimp added a delicious twist. The service was outstanding as well and added to the overall great experience. Bottom line--Cilantro's is my new go-to for a casual meal when I'm in town. read more

Great atmosphere, great food, and good drinks. Took the family here while we were in college station. I had some fajitas that were spot on, my wife had some enchilada, and the kids had a fajita burrito. My fam loved both salsas, but I preferred the red. Great little place and great service. read more

The stuffed peppers were awesome. The queso flambo (spelling) is a must have appetizer. The only thing I've gotten I didn't care for was a queso cover cheese enchilada. It was just too much cheese in one spot for me. I don't let that keep me from coming back. read more

We were passing through Bryan at dinner time and decided to stop here because of the good reviews. This place is so good! Amazing, fast, friendly service, great food and the atmosphere was perfect. Wish we had room to try the desserts but not this time. We both had the tacos plates and they are quick to being you chips and salsa after you sit down. Would definitely recommend this place! read more

Such great food and people! Everything was quality. We each had something different and it was all tasty.

Fajitas were tender and flavorful, service was great as we were the first ones in before dinner rush, sign stated that food was cooked as soon as ordered so it was true to form read more

I had heard good things about this restaurant so I decided to pay them a visit. The ambience of the restaurant is quite nice, and that's about it. The food was bad (not in terms of quality but in terms of taste) but the service was worse. The servers were friendly, but really not interested in working. They were having their dinner after serving us food (which was a 30 minute wait). We had to wait for 10 minutes for them to finish eating so we could finally pay and leave. We had to seek them out whenever we needed service. They weren't even that busy to begin with. As for the food, I and my friends was really disappointed with the taste of the food. Mexican cuisine is one of the most exciting cuisines in the world (according to me), but this restaurant makes it taste bland and boring. There are too many good Mexican restaurants in this city to waste one's time and money here. Not recommended. read more

This is probably THE BEST Mexican restaurant in BCS. We took a party of 15 there and everyone enjoyed their meal. The wait staff was friendly and service was pretty good. I mean for a party of 15, it's going to be a bit of a wait. The wait was just long enough for us to visit and fill up on chips and salsa (their red salsa is DELICIOUS btw) but it wasn't so long that we were wondering where our food was. I will definitely go back and continue to take friends and family when they visit. About half of our table ordered the cheese enchiladas. IMO they're the best you'll find in the area. read more

The street tacos were amazing! We were in a hurry and ordered a plate go. And boy were we disappointed because we wished we had ordered more! We will definitely be back! read more

We stopped here, driving through on vacation, and I don't know if I was really hungry, or it was just that good - but I swear this is some of the best mexican food I've had. And their salsa was to die for. read more

Seriously, our favorite Mexican food place in Bryan/College Station. Fresh food!!! Their corn tortillas are some of the best I've ever eaten. It takes a while to get your food, but it is well worth it. Definitely order one of their fresh margaritas on the rocks. Queso flameado is excellent too. Love this place!!! read more

This place is good! Beef fajitas for 2 very reasonable price and tasty. Good tortillas. Good Mexican food - I Recommend!
