Pollo asada taco
Brian M.

I originally ordered a pollo taco and the special, a carne asada chimichanga. I enjoyed both but would get chicken in the chimichanga next time. The tortillas were really good. A big plus as it's a challenge to get quality corn or flour tortillas. Ordered a second pollo taco. Atmosphere is authentic Mexican. You come here for the food.

Chilaquiles con huevo y birria
Robert Z.

Oh my god try this place. A very unassuming hole in the wall restaurant in a tiny strip mall but the chilaquiles were out of this world. Its a small, casual restaurant with table service and a takeout counter. I ordered the chilaquiles with eggs and birria (special they advertised on a chalkboard outside). The waitress recommended the green salsa over the red and it was SO GOOD. I could just live in that salsa. The meal itself was large and I definitely have leftovers but so excited for it. The rice was also great and well flavored and the mixture of spices, salsas, birria, cheese, chips, just amazing. I cannot recommend this enough after having it. I've had chilaquiles at various establishments in LA and this has been my favorite by far. If you want chilaquiles, please give this a try. Get the green salsa and you will not be disappointed!

Large Quesadilla - Barbacoa
Nick S.

Don Deme has become one of my favorite spots in Cbus. My partner and I went for a late dinner after our Plan A fell through. Luckily, this spot is no consolation prize. It's a bit unassuming from the outside and even on the inside, the decor isn't flashy or high-end. However, you have to visit them because they have excellent flavors and service. I ordered a pretty simple quesadilla with barbacoa and the normal sides of rice and fresh veggies. The barbacoa was so buttery smooth. It's also a huge portion for 12.99. Not pictured but they have amazing sauces, particularly their green sauce (if you are an early bird, try the chilaquiles with green sauce for breakfast). My partner and I could've finished the bottle in one sitting. Check them out if you're on the West side!

Exceptional friendly service. I had the cabeza, steak,and chicken taco, 2.50 each . Each had unique flavor and nicely seasoned. We requested hot sauce for our salsa and got both a red and green which were simply great. We want to go back and explore the menu more

What a hidden gem! I like discovering these local, mom & pop restaurants. I typically stay away from franchises. We ordered tacos, mojarra (whole fried fish), & menudo. Delicious!!! Definitely check out this joint.

Birria tacos
Oli G.

Good authentic food. We got quesabirria tacos, Birria burrito, queso and chips. Everything was fresh, tasty, and plentiful except their chips. They should put more chips in their bags as it's only about 1/3 Full like Chipotles. You need darn near two bags in order to get a fair serving. Sauces were good, Queso was excellent and leftovers the next day was just as good and fresh once reheated as the day we got it. 4 stars for being stingy with the chips. Add more chips to your bags and it'll be 5 Stars.

Quesabirria Tacos and Consomé

Best taco place in the area, food was incredible staff was friendly and attentive and the price is unbeatable!

Birria tacos
Amy C.

I cannot recommend this enough. If you like birria or just Hispanic food in general, this place is a MUST! I got the birria quesadilla and my partner got the birria tacos. So so so so so so good! We also got the flan, which was amazing as well. I can't wait to go back!!!

Chilaquiles con huevo
Rantoul D.

Love this place. I've only visited once but I'll be back. I've had Chilaquiles at four different restaurants in Columbus and Don Deme takes the cake. Great, friendly service as well. I look forward to a return visit.

I sit at the bar and I'm greeted by something I've never had ever...chips served with 2 red salsas, a verde salsa and bean dip! Usually you just get chips, a small bowl and a carafe of salsa, help yourself. This set the tone that this would be different than usual. I ordered steak fajita nachos and a Modelo Negra. I powered thru the chips and bean dip like it was my job. And it didn't disappoint. Really fresh and flavorful. Nachos are nachos, right? Wrong. How they are assembled has everything to do with their mouth feel as they cool down. I've had nachos that come out looking amazing but as they cool, turn into a disappointing chuck of chips held together by shredded cheese cement. These stayed loose with crunchy bites of peppers and onions, and the cheese sauce coated instead of becoming cement-like. I always order the same thing when trying a New Mexican spot. If the nachos are good, chances are everything is good! So I'll keep the almost 5 Star steak going. I agree, some of the best Mexican food in Columbus.

The food is delicious!! And they have margarita flights. Need I say more?…read more I'd recommend the Lupita's Special which has a little bit of everything! My friend got a chicken dish served in queso like sauce and it was really good, but I can't remember the name. (First picture)

He takes your order and makes your food fresh! Fajita nachos Al Pastor with a Victoria beer. The Victoria draft came out in a frosty mug and it was cold cold. Yes!! As I'm waiting for my food, more customers start coming in. Made me feel better lol. I swear the music playing is a recording of a DJ at a wedding lol. Out come the nachos and they look amazing. He also brings a little stand for my cell phone so I can eat and watch YouTube. Never have I had that offered to me at any restaurant. His hustle, service and smile was appreciated. The nachos were really good. The marinated pork, cheese sauce, fresh chips, chunks of pineapple, sour cream and salsa verde just came together well. Bonus points for the cheese sauce. Not to mention I watched him prepare everything thru the glass counter. He's back there having fun then brings your food out with a smile. Love it. If it were super busy I don't know how he would keep up, but I appreciate his hustle. Yelp, your recommendation didn't disappoint.

While I was in Korea, I came across a story that stopped me in my tracks--one of those moments when…read morethe weight of someone else's experience hits close to home. Ricardo, a waiter at Cazuela's Mexican Cantina in Reynoldsburg, had finished serving a table, expecting the usual--a tip, a simple acknowledgment of his hard work. Instead, he received a hateful message scrawled on the receipt, the kind that cuts deeper than words should. Ricardo works at Cazuela's only on Sundays, a second job to help make ends meet. So today, in between my OCIA responsibilities, I decided to stop by--to meet him, to shake his hand, and to remind him that there are far more good people in this world than the ones who spew hate. As we talked, I saw a man who carries himself with quiet dignity, someone who simply wants to work hard and provide for his family. I shared with him that I, too, know what it feels like to be told to "go back to your country," even though, like him, I am an American. I told him about my childhood, standing in front of my family's Crestview Market, hearing the ugly chants from passing cars--some driven by kids I went to school with. But today wasn't just about reliving painful memories; it was about something greater--the power of community, of kindness that drowns out cruelty. When I arrived at Cazuela's, I wasn't alone. Others had also come to show their support, to stand with Ricardo. He told me the outpouring of kindness had been overwhelming, and I was relieved to hear it. Before I left, I handed him my WARM card and told him if he ever needed help, he could call me. Because no one should feel alone in moments like these. And, by the way, if you ever stop by Cazuela's, their enchiladas and Mexican rice are fantastic. The chips and salsa? Fresh and addictive. And my server, Isabel--attentive, kind, and everything a great waitress should be. Some people choose to spread hate. But today, I saw so many more people choosing love. And thats what matters.

Very nice bartenders. Was chill on a Saturday. Chips are soooooo fresh and good. Reasonably priced…read morefood.

I got one chorizo, one steak, and one chicken tinga. The corn tortillas are what most people speak highly of here so I had to try it. It was exceptional. The tortillas do taste homemade and have a nice flavor and texture. The tacos didn't fall apart either. Now the meats were just okay...nothing authentic about them. Lacking in flavor too. BUT if you want to order a non taco item, you can add a tortilla for a $1. Probably what I should've done. My friend got the crunch wrap which was BIG. Prob too big for most people to finish but it had a lot of things in it, including a fried tortilla inside that my friend agreed was the star of the show. Otherwise, her Crunchwrap was bland....
