Cilantro's Taqueria - Carnitas bowl and Al pastor burrito - Tacos Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I love this place fresh and tasty! Easy to access from my shop!! Thx for the best fish tacos, chicken enchiladas in a hurry at good prices

Went here for the first time yesterday on my lunch break. It's tucked away on Bumby and the gentleman at the counter was super helpful - All I ordered was a veggie burrito (fully vegan) with added serrano peppers and a side of guac and chips with a drink. So hot, spicy and fresh. They added a little cup of salsa to my order. Found a new favorite place I gotta go back to! Ate it before the picture. read more

Always friendly owner and staff. Authentic fresh food delivered to the table. The prices are great and the street tacos are even better than anywhere else. The decor is simple but the artwork is amazing read more

If you haven't tried this restaurant yet... What are you waiting for? Go try it...immediately! Their salsa is the best salsa that we have ever had....anywhere! It tastes so fresh. I wish the owner bottled the salsa so I can always have access to it. Their food is delicious and so fresh! I was so excited to eat my food that I forget to take pictures. We enjoyed beef and steak tacos and a shrimp tostada, plus chips and salsa. Everything was perfect! This is counter service. Order at the counter, fill your own drinks, throw away your trash after. read more

Nom nom noms! Solid taco place, family owned (expect hours to vary because of this, one time I was banking on some yummy tacos and they were on a fishing trip!) Meats here are good! Tacos are corn based tortilla- only reason they get a four instead of a five is depending on the taco, sometimes they double up, sometimes they don't. When they don't double up on the tortilla, if the insides are too wet, they break apart and you have a hearty mess. They have daily specials, and they're normally very good. Drinks are great too, many of them homemade! Most tacos will also come with some chips and a very small container of salsa (could be bigger). Overall, great place! Some minor suggestions for improvements, but I'm happy this place is so close! read more

This place never disappoints! I usually get a burrito with a beer and a Zero Sugar Coke, but sometimes go the multi/varied taco route. No wrong choices. All great stuff. Eduardo is always welcoming and friendly and his restaurant is clean and tidy. The wait for food is never long. I've probably eaten there upwards of 20+ times. read more

Good little Tacqueria. I went with 3 tacos and they were pretty good. Lunch rush was moderately busy so that was a good sign. Nothing really stood out both good or bad. So if your in the area and need some tacos definitely worth checking out. read more

I was the first customer of Cilantro's Taqueria 8yrs ago and have come back many times over the past 8yrs and each time the food is always fresh, flavorful, hot and quick! Consistency is always the same, never skimping on portions or flavor! That can not be said about every restaurant, but it's facts with Cilantro's! The owner is always there to greet me, "my friend!" Patron for life! read more

Cilantro's Taqueria - Tacos Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I happened upon Cilantro's while at Hourglass Brewing and wasn't really feeling any of the food truck options they had that night. As a sodo local with gringos, tin and taco, and black rooster all a stone's throw away, I was really impressed! While most a la carte tacos are averaging close to $5 a piece nowadays, the tacos here ranged between $3-4 and came with chips and house made salsa, both classic and verde. I LOVED the salsa verde, more sweet than spicy!! I got fish, shrimp and carne asada taco, all were delicious. I'm assuming white meat tacos come with cojita cheese and red meat tacos come with more of a shredded blend. It is walk-up style ordering; you pay using the new iPad POS systems which we all hate but oh well it's the way of the future, and you seat yourself with a ticket number. You can tell it is a family owned and operated establishment. The same man that took our order came to check on us while we ate, and staff preparing the food also participated in delivering food to the table. read more

Cilantro's Taqueria - Tacos Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Cilantro's offers Mexican and Tex Mex style dishes plus empanadas. We didn't order their tacos (not sure anything will quite compare to the tacos I had on the street in Mexico City). I chose good ole Tex-Mex fajitas. While the seasoning was good, the portions were small. The young man at the counter who sold us the special of the day didn't mention the sides were separate. I saw fajita dinner on the menu and thought it was the option I would get fajitas with rice and beans. He didn't ask me if it was my preference, I asked for the fajitas. He ordered a single fajita. The inside was clean and had nice art displays. I enjoyed the art and music the most. However, the soda machine only served caffeine free Diet Coke. I improvised and mixed it with a tad of regular Coke but it wasn't the same. Overall, I chose this restaurant due to its high Yelp reviews/scores and food pics. The burrito would have been the best thing to try but I didn't know. I wasn't sure why a Mexican place served fajitas so I was curious. The single fajita was good but not too filling. Overall, it's a cute place but the food wasn't five star by any means. read more

Cilantros is a gem of a restaurant in the Curry Ford/Hourglass District area. The owner, Edward, is always there and so friendly and helpful whenever we visit. I am not typically a beef taco fan but do not sleep on the beef tacos at Cilantro's! They are out of this world. All their tacos come with chips and tasty homemade salsa. My daughter loves their cheese empanadas. They always have great combination specials on the board up front. There is a hot sauce bar and a fountain station, along with coolers with awesome selection of Mexican sodas, beer and other beverages. They also have fresh agua frescas available. Every time we visit there is great music playing over the speakers. read more

HOW did the place fall off my radar!? Was last here in 2019 and was hoping it was as good as I remembered, it was-and even better! Absolutely love this spot and the amazing flavors they are serving up. It's a small spot but their seasoning and authentic tacos are so delicious. Love the green tomatillo salsa on their shrimp taco, it was my go to here. It's a smaller place in the hourglass district, but worth a trip here to enjoy some tacos and flautas. Cannot wait to come back and try more items. read more

Really good Mexican food. Nice atmosphere. Nice service. Been there a couple of times.

Smells delicious, tastes great! This week's special - shrimp fajitas tacos and an empanadas!

Cilantro's is authentic, fresh and has a super cool atmosphere. The servers were friendly and the service is super quick. My dad and I went here together and we got the fish tacos (my dads favorite- he goes there often) and they sure did not disappoint. The fish was cooked to perfection and had a nice crisp on it. I really liked their salsa and that they give you a lime wedge was a nice touch.I've also tried a steak burrito and that is excellent as well. Next time I would get an order of their guacamole as well, that looked delish! It also comes with chips! The only thing missing from cilantros would be a margarita, but not to worry they do have beer & wine! I will for sure return here. read more

Cilantro's Taqueria - Fish tacos - Tacos Near Me - Orlando, Florida

2 of us ordered today's special of a fajita chicken taco, a carnitas taco, a cheese empanada (I may have the name of that wrong), chips with a perfect sized salsa side for the amount of chips, and a drink. Great deal! Great choice! The food there is amazingly fresh and delicious. The place is smallish, but does have room for several groups of 6 or 7 with nice high top tables. Also has a couple smaller tables. The kitchen is right there, and everything is absolutely spotless. (Even the bathroom is spotless!) Not really in our neighborhood, but very easy access for workers in the downtown area, surrounding neighborhoods, or anyone with business at OH or anywhere downtown. Counter service, with friendly, patient owners and workers. What a gem! read more

Awesome mexican eats! 1 star off due to the amount of chips you get with the price you pay for a meal. Craving a authentic Mexican burrito and I yelped through and saw pics and read reviews. Ordered the Carne Asada burrito with the horchata and a fish taco. The menu board is simple. The Carne Asada burrito was not as big as what I am used to but it was filling. It was delicious and the carne asada meat was very delicious! Tender and seasoned well. Had hints of grilled flavor. For the price I expected a bigger burrito. Would order this burrito again regardless. The fish taco is Mahi. Its a big portion of fish. It is grilled fish not fried and it's fresh. It tasted fresh. Simple toppings bundled in a flour tortilla. This was also seasoned well and it was delicious. Definitely I will order again. The horchata was served in a plastic to go cup and it wasn't from a fountain or agua fresca huge container. It was not the best horchata I tasted. It needed more cinnamon and thinner consistency. I would not order it again. The chips. You only get less than 10 pcs of tortillas chips. It was not even a handful. This to me was unbelievable the price you pay for a meal here and chips are cheap to make, They could offer more chips per meal order. They offer lunch specials. Staff here are nice. I would order a fountain drink next time I dine here and I would ask for more chips next time! read more

Super cute place right in hour glas district! small inside area for dining with a parking lot, even has some specials for during the week! Just want basic and got guac and salsa but it was phenomenal! Super close location to the hourglass brewery so picked it up there for a night out of drinking, but could have had some drinks at this restaurant too! read more

Don't let the nondescript location fool you. This is a yummy spot with good tacos and quesadillas and other mexican street-style bites. We recently enjoyed the skirt steak tacos (such a good quacamole cream sauce) and the carnitas tacos. The specials were generous--3 tacos and a drink and chips. And well portioned taco filling. The steak tacos were a little bit overly peppered (as in black pepper). Service was fast and friendly. The parking can be tricky since it is a small lot. But worth the effort for a great lunch spot. read more

Cinco De Mayo and the joint was jumpin'! We walked here since we are in the neighborhood AND heard they had a Cinco special 3 Al Pastor tacos and either a beer or margarita for $10!!! We arrived early 'cuz we knew the place would fill up fast. We started with chips and guacamole and salsa and ordered the special. Seating is cramped but these folks turn tables quickly as they know their food and beverage biz! I am a tequila snob and a connoisseur of margaritas so don't give me some cheap heap of mix with a little alcohol on top! NO worries amigos, the margaritas we had were delicious!! So much so that we even had a second one- at $2?! Who can resist?! They do a HUGE takeout business and have daily specials. Cilantro's is a neighborhood favorite because they offer great food at great prices. Winner!! read more

Cilantro's Taqueria - Carnitas platter. - Tacos Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This may be the longest delayed visit ever to a restaurant on my bookmarks. I know of them since the moment they opened their doors, but they are too far from me, and honestly, I have some favorite spots for tacos and other food in the area, so it is what it is... but I finally made it and I was very surprised with the quality and flavor of the food. Now, let's make this clear: there is nothing like eating tacos in Mexico City, and Cilantro's is not the place where I find authentic delicious meats wrapped in corn tortillas. But, I must say, their stuff is pretty awesome. On my visit I got a few tacos to try, al pastor, chicken fajitas, fish and carnitas. I must say that the flavors were really good, and that the portions were very generous. However, I was a little unhappy because they do not make taco sauce/hot sauce in house, but that is fine because they still offer the very popular hot sauces that you can find at every taco shop, Mexican restaurant and supermarket. After my taco experience, I wouldn't mind trying other things on the menu and/or repeating another taco night. read more

Went in on a Friday afternoon and there was only one person in there eating so we ordered and were served within minutes. Very clean facility and friendly staff. The ladies on the grill were quick and efficient with our order and our food came out hot and fresh. I think the cheese empanada was reheated though, but still delicious. The tacos were delicious and packed with meat, but the meat was a tad dry. The flavor was good though. The al pastor burrito was also a tad under seasoned and dry but the fresh veggies made up for it. The salsa and chips were so delicious though and the salsa tasted homemade. The dessert (sopaipillas) was very good but the caramel had a strange aftertaste. Overall, I have definitely had better street tacos in Orlando but the total for two us with two meals, drinks and dessert was $32 which you just can't beat. It's definitely worth the price and I would go back if I was in the area! read more

Taste: (10/10) this wasn't bad at all! I thoroughly enjoyed the different flavors. Appearance: (10/10) refer to photo! Value: (10/10) I received the Taco Tuesday price! It's honestly worth the regular price as well. General Comment: I enjoyed this food! I normally don't even eat the chips, but I devoured them! Definitely pair the tacos which your favorite sauce. It compliments the dish and gives it a well rounded flavor/blend. I highly recommend this spot! Don't sleep on it! read more

Cilantro's Taqueria - Tacos Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Great service, fresh food and a fun atmosphere round out some thoughts on our lunch at Cilantro's. We had the Al Pastor burrito, carne asada burrito, chicken fajita tacos, a cheese empanada and some fresh chips, salsa and guacamole to round out our lunch. I'm leaving out one ingredient - french fries. Pro move is to add the fries with the carne asada burrito. The fries are similar to McDonald's, which is a compliment. If you don't think McDonald's are the gold standard in fries you probably prefer cauliflower fries and keep your organic ketchup in the refrigerator. Not saying we can't be friends, but I'm probably busy if you invite me to eat at your house. The Al Pastor burrito was awesome. I should have added guacamole, but we had some for the table and I added some fresh salsa also. I included a pic of the carne asada burrito with the fries added. That's my pro tip. And of course high praise from me for the Coca Cola fountain. Everyone knows Pepsi loosely translates to "poison syrup" in Spanish. Enjoy! My Standardized Yelp Ratings 5 stars - This is for a place that I see as one of the best at what they do (steaks, sandwiches, BBQ, seafood, etc). 5s are for places I've been several times (typically) at least and never had an "off" experience. The food quality, service, price and atmosphere are all going to meet or exceed expectations. 4 stars - This is for a place that is good, I would drive a little out of the way to go, and the food and service is good, but maybe not amazing. Also for me, this could also be a great place that serves Pepsi products - automatic 1 star loss - bad management decision. 3 stars - This is for a place that I view as standard. Nothing special, nothing lousy, not a place you'd avoid like the plague, but a place that is not one you really look forward to either. 2 stars - This is for a place that had something go wrong or something perpetually wrong. The food and or service is likely consistently suspect here (they probably serve Pepsi too). 1 star - I can't see wasting time writing a review on a place that gets a 1 star. This is for a place that should consider closing. read more

Still don't know why I haven't been here before!? This place delivers a hole in the wall taco shop feel without the fear of food borne illness lol The owner and staff were very friendly. Since it's located in the Hourglass District I thought parking might be an issue on a busy day, but we had no issue. The tacos were delicious and the prices were very affordable. Really enjoyed the al pastor with their fresh house-made smokey red and spicy green salsa. The kids chicken tenders basket for $4 was a steal. I'll take Cilantro over all the hipster taco places I've been to in Orlando. read more

Decided to stop in on Tuesday and try then out. Small spot with cute decor. You order first, receive a number and they bring the food to you. We decided on the Taco Tuesday Special -3 tacos, chips&salsa, Anda drink for$12. I got 2 chicken tacos and 1 al pastor. The corn tortillas were good and I enjoyed the al pastor taco the best. Overall the tacos were good but the meat needed more seasoning, and the green salsa also needed a little more flavor and spice. We also got elote which was very good read more

Forgot to take a photo, but I really enjoyed my order of two tacos: one shrimp and one fish. The fish was a large and meaty cut, and the portion of shrimp was likewise generous. The tortillas were as good as any I've had in a while, and everything was nicely seasoned, spiced, and presented. Service was very friendly and quick, and prices were reasonable (though its early 2022, and I'm unsure how much anything is supposed to cost anymore!) I'll be back, and likely won't change my order. read more

Walking into Cilantro's there is a huge chalkboard menu with tacos, burritos, quesadillas & more. It is not overwhelming to look at since everything is well written & arranged. Inside is a counter to order, then a small dining space with high & low-tops plus a variety of self-serve hot sauces. I am a burrito gal so naturally, that is what I had to try here for my first time. I ordered a straightforward chicken burrito with added pico de gallo. The chicken was marinated nicely but I feel like something was still missing! It needed some acidity in spite of me adding pico! I don't know what it was but something was certainly incomplete about the flavor profile. The guacamole is pretty yummy & probably one of the best home-made guacs I've had in a while from a restaurant. The service was kind, helpful & quick. 10/10 would visit again :) read more
