Easily one of my favorite Mexican restaurants so far. Their salsa tastes so fresh and I usually order one to go (and usually a queso). I've primarily gone for lunch and it is speedy. Every meal has been great and tasty. Amazing deal for lunch fajitas (enough for the next day). Service is efficient and the vibe is casual. read more

La Pinata - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Best Mexican food in Colerain. My family stops here regularly for great food and great service. I'm normally a picky eater but I feel comfortable exploring with so many options here. It's always a fun time and they're happy to celebrate birthdays! Love the exterior, too. There's also plenty of parking outside. read more

Fun atmosphere and a huge menu but the service is severely lacking. Went in on a Saturday around 7:30 and they were not very busy. Our waiter was doing everything else but serving tables! Once we finally got our order in the food was out quickly and was hot and the veggies were fresh (I ordered chicken fajitas). My chicken was way overcooked and tough and the dish itself was very bland. Large portions. The margarita was too sweet and a little sickening. This place has gone down hill bad. Plus side it appeared clean but I'd rather go somewhere else. read more

I'm always up for a good experience when it comes to Mexican food! The menu is pretty diverse - the choices cover most of the food you'd expect to find all over Mexico - The lunch combos are hard to beat - the create your own combo - allows you to choose from the best of the best, whatever you might be craving - my beef taco, relleno, and chicken enchilada was amazing! I always say you can tell how good any restaurant serving Mexican food is by their relleno - and my relleno was great - The service was a little spotty, slow with the drink refills but the food came out hot and fast - to their defense the dining room was full - The decor was pretty much what you'd expect to find in a Mexican restaurant - a definite south of the border feel, with a background filled with happy conversations and music - their bar was stocked up with just about every type of drink you could imagine - happy hour must be happy indeed! The restaurant is hidden behind several restaurants in the retail center - it's worth finding! read more

La Pinata - Very colorful decor of the dining room! - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Our family visited La Pinata in the Cincinnati location while we were in town visiting a college. The food was hot and delicious. The servers were friendly and fast. The chicken enchiladas were the best I've ever had. Thanks! read more

This is our go to place, but the last 2 times we have had 'interesting' experiences. 1 was with another customer and the police outside before dining and the second the service was WAY OFF. Will be visiting again and hope the service issues were just a fluke. read more

It is standard Mexican restaurant in the mid-west. A large building with a spacious interior and brightly colored decorations and seating. Very pretty and inviting. Our server was quite attentive and courteous. A very good experience with Cesar! The food met my expectations. Good, flavorful and well presented but nothing spectacular. The pricing is really good! This is a must try! read more

Great food, great service. A bit noisy. Stop in after a movie. Had a bit of a wait, but it was worth it!

Great food! fast service! Best Mexican food in town. Mild salsa is delicious. Recommend the Mexican Burrito and chicken fajitas read more

The piñata bowl is my favorite dish. It has chicken, steak and shrimp. It also comes with a cheese sauce. Add or minus what you like. I leave out the shrimp and cheese sauce. The ambiance is welcoming. Free chips and salsa are given once you are seated. The chips come out fresh and warm. read more

We used to visit this place weekly but lately its quality has gone way down hill. Took our grandkids here and the kids grilled cheese wasn't even melted between the bread, my ground beef taco salad was barely warm. Server gave us 3 straws and utensils for 4 people and we had to track somebody else down to get a 4th. Server never came back until we were done eating before asking how the food was (the meat in the taco salad was cold). Fine, we're done, we'll go somewhere else! read more

My combo meals is #13 which enchilada, burrito and chili relleno $12.99 a little more with shredded beef. Positively the best I ever had.

Hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant! I've been going here for years and they never disappoint. Food and service is always top notch. I don't know about you, but I judge my Mexican restaurants on two things, salsa and margaritas. Personally I hate chunky salsa, and their salsa is the perfect balance of smooth with just the right amount of kick. I could drink it from a straw! Now onto the margarita, it's literal perfection. I've been around the Mexican chain restaurant block once or twice and nothing compares to a La Piñata margarita. It's potent, but doesn't taste potent. P.S. You can't beat their margarita Wednesday special. read more

La Pinata - Chips, salsa, and an AMAZING gold marg. - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Food is really good, they are busy everytime we go. Seems clean and typical Mexican restaurant vibe. Glad there is not dia de los muertos everywhere here. I don't vibe with that at all and would not dine here if they did. It's everywhere at a near competitor and we left. read more

Food is always yummy and the environment is fun. My family are regulars here. Great service.

The atmosphere is fantastic and fun looking. The food is awesome. And I really enjoyed the margaritas. Service is fast and attentive.

I use to love this place. Staff is usually very friendly. Last few times we get a server that barely takes care of us after the food comes out. I dread it when we get him. This time I was dying of thirst. Not sure if it is worth a return visit. read more

The food, in comparison to the Fairfield location, is severely lacking in quality and appearance. I'll drive the extra 9 miles next time.

The best food, the best servers. The owner Mario is very nice. A couple of their servers Chico and Edwardo are the best that we have had. Really Great Servers but all the people working there are Great employees and friendly. read more

They remember me and my order. Excellent food and service. They have a devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe and I believe this has helped them grow and prosper. They have good values. I highly recommend La Pinata and Elmer is a great server. read more

In my search for great Mexican food since moving to Cincinnati, I decided to try La Piñata. The hostess had a smile and seated us right away. The restaurant is decorated colorfully like a Mexican restaurant you would find in Mexico. They have authentic Mexican music playing in the background, which I feel adds to the overall experience. The chips & salsa were good but, if you ask, they have an excellent HOT salsa too. My husband added it to the regular salsa, which he said added to the flavor. I ordered the 'create your own plate' with cheese enchilada, shredded beef taco & chicken tamale and a Margarita. It was all very good. The meat was moist so the taco tortilla started falling a part half way through.. Next time I would eat it first. The Margarita was very good. Our server was nice but didn't keep up on beverages or chips & salsa without having to call him over. I'd recommend this restaurant and would come here again. read more

I have visited this restaurant many times. I make it a habit to choose different items from the menu each time I go with the exception of the Chile relleno which I order every time. I am continually impressed. The service is phenomenal. The food is always delivered promptly, and is plentiful. I was overjoyed to find them in their new building and I must say it's beautiful. You are really missing out if you do not give this a try. I think the queso Charro is outstanding. The shredded beef has so much flavor and the crunchy tacos are amazing. I've had all the hot and spicy seafood dishes and none of them disappoint. This is all top-notch!!!! They are doing a fantastic job and they have the friendliest waitstaff. One of my favorite places in the area read more

WOW! The food here is AMAZING its seasoned so well. The meat is tender and delicious. I really wish I could eat here nightly. The frozen margarita is too sweet definitely wouldn't order that again. Go for the FOOD! Before I started eating the Keto diet I would also get the churros which are made to order and come out hot and fresh. read more

It had been a while since I was at La Pinata (mainly because we frequent another Mexican place down the street) but we were looking to try something different and this was convenient to some shopping we had to do. We arrived around 6pm on a Sunday and were sat immediately. Unfortunately, we were right by the front door but it wasn't bad. Service was quick and our drink order was brought to the table immediately. It took a few minutes for us to decide what to order but once we did, the food was out fast. It was fresh and hot. I got Al Pastor on corn tortillas. They are served in the authentic way with cilantro and onion. It had a little too much onion for me but they were delicious. I've had some great Al Pastor other places and this was comparable. Maybe a little to heavy in the sauce/marinade but it had great flavor. We ended the meal with sopapillas (sp?). It was very inexpensive so the small serving size wasn't shocking. They were good but I am used to other places serving them with a generous helping of a honey sauce that these lacked. Tip: Ask for their spicy salsa; it is much better than the mild salsa they give to every table. But be careful; they will charge for multiple refills of the chips (see the menu for details) Definitely give this place a shot and try the Al Pastor tacos! read more

La Pinata - Tacos Al Pastor - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Their food and their service is excellent. Best service of any restaurant in town. Plenty of menu choices and restaurant is still as clean and new as it was when it opened. Highly recommended. read more

Would recommend the grilled tacos and trying 3 different proteins bcz you can't really go wrong. The chorizo was crispy and full of flavor, the fish was charred but still moist. My shrimp taco was probably my least favorite but nothing to fret about. Comes with a generous side of toppings when you opt for "rice & beans." Guacamole side dish is par, queso also just okay but my wife and little one love variety for chip dippin' so we were all content. Get some jalapeños on the side and the house hot sauce (salsa texture) if you need heat, they make a good one. Will continue to support this location as they've proven consistency. read more

Being a vegan and loving Mexican styled food can be hard. I ordered veggies fajitas and it came out hot, and fresh. The amount and different varieties of vegetables offered was top notch. Flavor on point, fresh vegetables delicious. Margaritas perfect, not too much cheap Tequila. I will definitely go back and recommend for a anyone. Family friendly. read more
