We visited Cielto Lindo yesterday on Mother's Day and, despite going last minute without a…read morereservation, had a wonderful experience. We were seated in the lovely outdoor area, which had such a great atmosphere with Mexican music playing in the background. We started with the empanadas, and they were absolutely delicious. For our main dishes, we had the shrimp fajitas and steak tacos--both were flavorful, perfectly cooked, and truly hit the spot. The service was just as impressive as the food. Our server, Joely, was awesome--friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcomed, especially on such a busy holiday. Great food, great service, and a beautiful setting. We'll definitely be back!

The restaurant is located in a very small strip of stores - next to a market and bakery. Upon…read moreentering, there is a small host station, and one large room. The night we dined the restaurant was pretty busy, but there were no servers or hosts in sight. After a very brief wait, a server and host/server came out of the kitchen and sat us immediately. We started with horchata to drink, which arrived in mason jars with a dusting of cinnamon. The menu is very seafood heavy, so if you're not into fish or seafood, your options are limited. With that being said, the menu leans authentic Mexican. Every table receives fresh homemade nachos with a black bean topping and two salsas- one mild and one spicy. We decided to do the appetizer sampler so we could try a little of a variety of things. It came with an empanada, elote, nachos, guacamole, and queso fundido. The presentation was awesome, as it arrived on a wooden board. The empanada was cut into 4 pieces and was filled with chicken tinga and cheese. I absolutely loved it, while my friend hated it, which was crazy to me. It was so flavorful and had almost a carnitas flavor to it. The guac was fresh, the nachos were crispy and packed with toppings, elote was flavorful and fresh, and queso fundido was super filling. We almost filled up on the apps, but our birria tacos came out and they were fantastic. Our server poured the hot consommé over onions in a little bowl and the flavor was rich and paired with the birria so well. The corn tortillas were crispy and even though we could only eat one of the three, we took the rest home. We also split a side of Mexican rice and beans, which were average and pretty much what you'd expect. We aren't sure if there is dessert, as there was none on the menu, but we were too full even if we were offered options. Our server was attentive even though it was very busy. All in all, I would give it a 4 and my dining companion would give it a 3 so 3.5 would be perfect. However I went up to a 4 because I enjoyed what I ordered and think it deserves that half of a star.

The place was completely dead but seemingly fulfilling door dash type orders because the place was very dirty. Every table needed to be wiped down. I ordered a bowl but the food had been sitting out for so long that the grilled chicken was brown and dry and the white rice was hard. I ordered fries because they didn't have tater tots. Asked for ketchup but all that was available was the packets that were stuck together by the soda machine. Hot sauces were brown and in bottles that needed to be cleaned. I stayed to eat but for the entire time, the staff was more concerned with socializing than cleaning up. Maybe the college kids running the place need a little more weekend supervision? This was a $24 meal.

The eggs are cooked perfectly, soft and fluffy, and the tater tots add a nice crunch, although I would not mind if they were even a little crunchier. They're already better than most places I've been. The sausage was nice and flavorful, although I do wish there was a little more, as I felt like it got a little lost in the rest of the burrito. Overall, this is a very cohesive burrito with all the components working very well together. I like their take-out system. It's very fast and efficient, and I was greeted by the owner, who is very friendly and full of personality. I highly recommend this place!

Emina, the bar tender, gave many good food & drink suggestions. The place was clean; not crowded in any way. As my hunger persisted, I decided on a chicken chimichanga & margarita.

Luckily, the new Brick location did not disappoint, and I've been coming here nearly weekly in an attempt to sample a bunch of their different options. The interior is well decorated for a stripmall restaurant; an absolutely gorgeous mural decorates the left wall, with enough seating for ~30 people or so. A large menu board shows all the delicious food on offer, and at least as of the time of this review - most menu options are below $15 or so, making it a great value for quick dinners or easy lunches. Speaking of lunch, they do a daily lunch special for $10 that blows most local places out of the water, and comes with either 2 chicken tacos, empenadas, or tamales, as well as a side of rice & beans and a beverage. Super flavorful, and something I find myself getting entirely too often. Great folks, great food, great prices, and easy & quick ordering. What more could I ask for?
