Fire tacos and they got the big ass glass coke bottles. Great place all around. Birria tacos are my favorite and the Guti Fries too.

The food was AMAZING- I definitely recommend the guti fries and birria tacos everyone was very friendly- the owner's sister made my drink and helped us order from the menu. She's fantastic- so friendly and brings such a positive vibe. read more

Olla Taqueria Gutierrez - Birria tacos! - Mexican Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

My family and I love this place. We typically take out- while some places seem to have a drop off between dine-in and take out, this is not one of those places! The birria tacos are a must - added bonus is this place has probably my favorite quesadillas I have ever eaten. Also highly recommend the brunch burrito. All in all, just fabulous food and staff! read more

Everything was *chefs kiss* delish!!!! So so so good. The birria tacos were crunchy and full of meat and cheese. The nachos were perfect. The red sauce has just a little kick of heat. The green sauce was good. The birria was Can't wait to be back! read more

Olla Taqueria Gutierrez - Birria tacos, guti nachos, margs on the rocks - Mexican Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

I'm out here for work I'm from Utah and I stumbled across this place on google maps and saw that they had great reviews and saw the pictures of the food and I'm originally from Southern California, (Oxnard) lived there all my life and man this place has some bomb birria tacos! I came here on a Wednesday and they have weekly specials and today was 3 birria tacos for $10 what a DEAL! I went back in line to try there adobada tacos and I loved everything I had. Kentucky I see you, yall get down. read more

Thr food is great, but the margaritas are bland and weak. The music is too loud, makes it hard to enjoy the food and conversation

Amazing!! Outside dinning and all. Barias and corn were amazing. They have a salmon burrito and all. The food is absolutely amazing hands down. read more

THE best birria tacos in the tri state area. i also highly recommend their guti fries but yea they have never let me down and as someone from Cali, all the flavors reminds me of the Mexican food u find all over So Cal read more

Always a treat and a delicious one at that! I look forward to going here whenever we can!

I'm very particular about taco spots and Olla hits all the right notes. I ordered the steak, pork and chicken with cheese and they were great. The salsas were some of the most flavorful I've had in a while and the Guit fries were sublime. Honestly one of the better meals I've eaten in Cincinnati so far. I wouldn't be shocked if this operation gets bigger within the next few years. Eat here before everyone jumps on the bandwagon. read more

Olla Taqueria Gutierrez - Guit fries and a plate of tacos. - Mexican Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

In the conversation for the best taco place in NKY/greater Cincinnati. Great range...amazing for a quick snack or carryout option but a full bar too for a meal. Excellent birria and many other options. Fast and friendly service too makes this a must have read more

DELICIOUS i got the beauto tacos with chicken and they were amazing. it comes with some stuff to dip in and it made it for me. only flaw with this place is the size, its very cramped on inside with seating especially when busy. but there is outside seating and its not their fault that everyone wants to go there. Loved it! read more

I am honestly baffled as to how this place is so highly rated, unless I got a bad batch of Friday night rush hour food via Doordash. I was expecting something tasty and it definitely was not. The chicken taco started off looking ok - generous helping of meat. But it tasted like grease and cilantro. I don't mind cilantro, but I was not expecting it to be about the only flavor. The salsa verde that came with the taco was ok, but couldn't save the overall situation. The limes were pretty dry, and the radishes were dry chunks that weren't edible and looked like they'd been sitting around like at a salad bar. I had a veggie taco also and it wasn't much better. I dumped salsa I had at home on the chicken to try to salvage what I had paid for. Extremely disappointing and kind of sad. read more

Great place apparently meaning "pan" or "skillet"? Great food and accommodating employees. I took a friend there from PR and he vouched for it being very good Spanish influenced food. I was disappointed in the partial menu availability but hey, it's 2021! Regardless everything was fantastic and full of flavor. Great little casual spot to grab a bite. read more

Food is great, the fries with meat added are a must. $22 pitcher of margarita is a great place for Friday post work day. Ambiance feels like you're on vacation in the patio area. Owners are super involved in the community and I believe they own Gutierrez Deli as well. They know how to run a good business that's for sure. read more

The tacos are out of this world good, I would definitely recommend coming here. We tried the birria, pork, chicken, and steak. All of which were very tasty. read more

Love the Birra tacos even though they can be pretty geasy, just make sure you have plenty of napkins. The street corn is delicious.

Taco Tuesday was delicious!! Also got the nachos very tasty we got take out. Highly recommended.

I think my expectations were set too high. Walked in and didn't feel very welcomed. Maybe something was going on- the vibe just seemed off. It took three people to figure out how to ring us up. The girl had no idea what elote was on the menu. Tacos were ok- not authentic in my opinion. Elote was not good. Plantains were mushy and soaked in oil. I just wasn't impressed- very bummed read more

Olla is fantastic! We live a few blocks away and excited to finally have a restaurant in walking distance! We have been 3 times so far and have had excellent service and amazing food. They are brand new, so obviously working out kinks, but we've never had to wait longer than 15 minutes for food whether its take out or eat in! read more

Food was outstanding and the service was friendly and prompt. I think they have the best tacos in Covington, and that's saying something! We will return soon. read more

The tacos are amazing. The carne asada, chicken, and spicy pork were so flavorful! I will definitely return!

Best Birria tacos around. Much better than the bigger Mexican restaurants around town so much flavor

Loved the steak & chicken tacos, but got a mild case of food poisoning from the chorizo taco. Amazing margarita as well.

Low key, best spot in Cinci!!!!!! Amazing, authentic, fresh food. Definitely eat inside if you can, rather than takeout. The fries are incredible and the birria tacos are indescribable. Will be forever dreaming of them. read more

Run here. Not sure why anyone gave it less than 5 stars. Best tacos they have are birria, chorizo, and the salmon. My wife liked the lengua but I'm not about that life. The chicken was kind of dry. Drinks were on point. Get there early. When we arrived no one was there. Within an hour there was a line around the store. read more

YUMMMM. Shrimp taco is a must - so is the margarita. They use cucumber in the margs and which is so refreshing. All super fresh ingredients. Super cute little place - we will be back! read more

See all

Its pretty good. Have gone twice so far. Aside from not enough seating when its busy, really no other issues. The tacos are great.

Food was good. The flavor was there. My favorite was the birria tacos. I would definitely go back for those. As for the service, it was great, the girls were nice. Our margaritas were dressed with chamoy and tajin and they were delicious. Overall I give it 4 stars. read more

I had the salmon burrito and it was awesome! The guacamole is so good. I wish it was one closer to me!

We have heard wonderful things about Olla for the past year. We finally got the chance to try it. We had the birra tacos, burrito and Guti Nachos. Plus margarita and something like a Bloody Mary. (The 1st 2 things they ended up not being able to make, so the husband said surprise me.) Food- was AMAZING. Everything we ate was great! Lived up to the hype. Drinks- 5/10-meh. The margarita was WAY too sweet. The Bloody Mary drink was too spicy and awful. I drank it, my husband could not. Maybe stick to a beer? We will absolutely be back for the food. It was everything I hoped it would be! read more

Well, I made my first visit to Olla today and was not disappointed. I visited with a friend of mine who wanted to try it. I had a burrito with carne asada and loaded fries. Wow!!! I was blown away at the flavor. The provided sauces were great too. Can't wait to go back at least once more before I head back home toTennessee. read more

Love the food service good ambiance the place is to small not good for a party my friends did not it there good for carry out

This place is fantastic. After my husband and I discovered this place 10 mins away from us (we live in cincinatti), we spend every other week eating here. The loaded chips and the chorizo tacos were extraordinary! The food delivery was so quick as well and because you pay up front, you can just stay and eat in your own time! Highly recommend! read more

Friendly staff, very clean. I ordered: Birria tacos- super greasy. Due to an allergy, I wasn't able to try their salsas. That left them tasting bland, despite bottled hot sauce. Rice-tasty, very soft. Elota corn-Great flavor. Black near cob...left over! Plantains-Excellent crispness and char! Coarse salt overpowered. Better without. read more

We were really excited to try this place out, but we ended up disappointed. Waited almost thirty minutes, multiple people behind us got their order first. We ordered simple raspberry marg. Some birria tacos and a quesadilla. The quesadilla is the only thing that was good. This place compared to the little taco shack down the road isn't nothing! My margarita was separated in the cup for how long it had been sitting, not even fresh for us to leave with. read more

Second visit here and its still just as good as the first. Those birria tacos though!!!!!! We also had the Guiti fries with carne asada. Its one of my favorite foods ever. read more
