This is hands down the best Mexican food in our area. Everything tastes fresh, full of flavor, and made with care. The portions are generous, the food comes out hot, and every bite reminds you why local places like this are worth supporting. The quesadilla was incredible: perfectly grilled tortilla, plenty of meat and cheese, fresh pico, lettuce, and sauce on the side. Simple, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you're craving great Mexican food. Great food, great service, and easily one of our favorite spots. We'll definitely be back! read more

The absolute best authentic Mexican food Cincinnati has to offer. Quality food, great value and excellent customer service. They have daily specials as well; like a whole chicken with fresh tortillas made in house for $12 and that's just Monday, they also have $1.25 tacos every Tuesday. Try them out and see what all the hype is about read more

Our group from the Y ate lunch today at Tortilleria Garcia. Taco Tuesday with $1.25 tacos. I had 3 tacos, a generous portion of chips and salsa, and a refillable soft drink for under $10. The food was authentic (IMO), the service line moved quickly, and every one had a great time read more

People at the counter were not friendly. Got the taco platter w al pastor and asada, plus a pollo tamale. Both taco meats were incredibly dry and brittle, however the refried beans were flavorful. Tamale had no flavor. Was expecting alot more for how good the reviews are. read more

Good quality food and specials available 4 days a week. Monday- chicken & chips, Tuesday- tacos, Friday- burritos, Saturday-birria tacos. Very good pricing and kind staff. Order, pay, pick up food at the end. Seating available outside and inside. Very laid back, convenient eatery. read more

I can't believe I' haven't rated Tortilleria Garcia yet! I go here at least once a month, which is a lot. I generally don't have a lot of places I go to more than once a month. They are reasonably priced and yummy. I generally end up with a bowl or a burrito. Usually the Al Pastor because I like the balance of sweet and salty. Their guac is some of the best in town and the queso is a delight. You can't go wrong with a TG run! read more

Fresh tortillas is always a plus when eating any food. I lived in South TX a LONG time and appreciate good and well made Hispanic foods!! Service is always on point with generous servings of deliciousness. Always clean and inviting I need to remember to bring my group of friends here with me. I also love how I can get my large horchata with no ice. Yummmmm. read more

We've been regulars here since this location opened. Just stopped by tonight to grab tacos for their taco Tuesday deal. Everything here is delicious, there are no wrong choices. Staff are super friendly and service is quick, even when they are busy! Will continue to recommend! read more

This was the food truck. Two tacos, $4 each. Waste of money for me, I threw it away. Dry, uninteresting, I asked for a drizzle of queso on top and was told I had to buy a $4 container. Nope. Waited forever in line, wish I wouldn't have. read more

Always looking for new burrito joints... one of my favorite foods, especially with fresh ingredients. Saw this place on the way to visit family and decided that we would check it out for dinner tonight. Enjoyed the burrito, and the folks were very friendly. Liked that they had some choices of beer and pre-made margaritas, though the my were a little light on the tequila. My only real complaint was how noisy the back room is (the table area for eating in). Though there was only one other family there, the sounds bounced off the walls and were amplified. A nice place to grab some good food in a hurry but I think that next time we either will sit outside on the patio between this restaurant and the next one or get takeaway. read more

The best corn tortillas in Cincinnati. Great food. Great party packs for tacos at home - meats, condiments. Yum!

This place never disappoints! You order at the counter and can take it back to their small dining area. My friends and I also love to take it to-go and eat at the brewery nearby. Today we tried the margaritas- which I didn't know they had- and they were a hit! I got the taco platter with all the toppings and rice and beans. These are some of my favorite rice and beans in the city. The staff is friendly and service is quick! Taco Tuesday is an awesome deal - so come then! read more

Tortilleria Garcia - Chicken taco platter - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

I've been going here for 5+ years on their Taco Tuesday Day special. Food has always been tasty and fresh in the past. My past two visits is why I'm leaving a two star review. The meat had a prominent freezer burnt taste to it and I threw the food away and went elsewhere and haven't returned now in over a month. I tried messaging the owner about the issue but received no response. I wasn't looking for a refund or free food but rather to let them know that when quality of ingredients are overlooked, I can go elsewhere. I realize they do not need my patronage to survive. read more

Always top notch, fresh, satisfying food. My daughter and son in law recommended it and we eat there one a week. Try it. It's worth it.

Got take out of al pastor nachos, with everything...(drinking at Brink Brewery next door). ABSOLUTELY fantastic. Wife and I split the order and it was PLENTY! A side of spicy cucumber salad to top it off. Ordered and had it in less than 5 minutes. In the area...check it out read more

I go to this place every Taco Tuesday, and I am always satisfied with their service! They really know what they're doing. Since it gets busy on Tuesday, they want to get you in and out, and I can tell they've been doing this for awhile. Note that Taco Tuesday used to be $1.00 each, but they are increasing it to $1.25. For the tacos you get, I think it is still an incredible deal and will continue to go. I always get the chicken and/or carnitas tacos, as I feel that those are the tenderest meats they have and could eat a whole plate of carnitas tacos. They also have a vegetarian option available that includes rice and beans! Their chips and guac/queso is also a good addition to add to the meal. The dining area can get packed since it's a little small - but they keep it well kept. There's always area outside to eat too if the weather permits. This is a must go to :) read more

This little gem was wonderful for lunch. The food was hot and fresh. The location was easy to get to and park. The restaurant itself was very well done. There was no restroom for patrons tho, which was disappointing. I would have liked to be able to wash my hands. The taco plate was delicious. read more

Tortilleria Garcia is a small, modest restaurant which can be classified as a "Hidden Gem". Originally, I had visited this place several years ago, and really did not think much of it. However, after visiting this place in March, I was hooked! I could not get enough of the Steak Tacos with all the toppings. I loved the way they assemble the food in front of you, so you can see what is going in where. I also love the variety of what they offer: (Frozen Latin treats, drinks, cakes and Flan...which I desperately want to try). I can go in, place my order to one of the friendly cashiers, and in a few minutes, I'm walking out with a taco lunch or dinner. The specials seem really great too, although, I've only had one. If you ever have a chance to try their burrito special on Friday, do so! If Tortilleria Garcia is so good, why did I rate it 4 stars? The answer is consistency -- depending on who assembles your food. There were times when I would have tacos with a decent amount of meat and toppings. There were also times when I barely had any meat or toppings in my taco. Nevertheless, the food is pretty decent, and the staff's friendliness make it a great place to visit. I would encourage anyone who loves Latin food to try this restaurant. It will be worth your while. read more

We've dined in a few times but it had been a while. We were hosting friends old friends we don't see often enough and we all agreed we wanted a laid back, relaxing night, eating, drinking, and catching up. I called in the afternoon to place a pick up order for later in the day. The young man who took my order was so helpful with suggestions from the catering menu. I settled on #2 with two meats, sides, and a large tray of chips with quac, queso and allll the salsas! I don't do too spicy but friends agrees that the spicy was, in fact, spicy! Everyone loved dinner. Portions were perfect for 10-12 with varying appetites and we all agreed we ate too much but couldn't help ourselves, it's so good. And we still had leftovers for the next day! Dining in or carry out, you can't go wrong here! read more

I went out walking during our huge snow emergency today (4 inches of snow and still falling) and was amazed to find that Tortilleria Garcia was open -- they do advertise that they're open daily, but this seemed to be taking it a little far. But I appreciated walking into the warm friendly restaurant after braving the 24-degree weather and stinging snow. You walk in to see the ordering station right in front of you, with the selections printed above the window. I immediately got waited on, and he was friendly and helpful every step of the way. I kept it simple, ordering 2 tacos. The first room is just the ordering window and assembly station/kitchen, but when you walk back you see a small but pleasant restaurant area. The bathrooms are back there, and need a 4-letter code for access (though it took 3-4 tries until the door accepted the code). As for the tacos -- they were pretty good. They advertise that they make the corn tortillas in-house, and it does make a difference in the taste. The pork taco was a little dry, but it had good flavor. The shrimp taco was well cooked. Overall, a small intimate, friendly restaurant with decent food -- a good place to dash in on a cold and snowy day to for a decent taste of Mexican street food. read more

We used Tortilleria Garcia to cater our wedding. They were nothing short of fantastic. Teresa was our direct contact, and she did everything she could to make things perfect for us. Not to mention, the guests raved about the food (which is uncommon at weddings). I would highly recommend using them - spectacular service, wonderful food, and Teresa's help through it all makes it impossible to beat in our opinion. read more

One of my favorite go to taco places! Highly recommend the Carnitas (pork) tacos, chips and queso. They make all there tortillas in house, fresh, and oh so good. They always have good selection of specials. Also, if you want to try all the tacos then shop up for $1 taco Tuesdays. They are a smaller version of the regular tacos but for a buck can try them all for $4-5. Typically, I'll get a to go box and then walk two doors down to Brink brewery for a great beer to have with my tacos. These two joints really do complement each other. Would love to see a future yelp event with these two places. Overall, it's a great place to get quality food. Can't wait to go back soon! read more

I can't believe I never reviewed this place. I've been to this particular location more than I can remember, to eat and to carry out and I love it. The restaurant it self is very clean and tidy, staff is welcoming and friendly. It's good to mention that when you eat in there you order up front and wait for your food in line so you can take it back to a table. Their tacos are the best, their tortillas are probably my favorite, along with their mild salsa or green salsa. Not a fan of their rice but it's good either way. I've also tried their chicken and is well cooked and very flavorful Definitely love their taco Tuesday! Every taco is a dollar and they are smaller than your regular taco but for sure worth the price. Must check them out! read more

Tortilleria Garcia - Platter with 2 tacos, rice, and beans - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Tortilleria Garcia is so good, fast, and easy to order. They are set up similarly to Chipotle so you order what you want and then pick the toppings, sides, drinks, and dessert (get dessert). Staff are friendly and will help you. I wanted a non-alcoholic limearita and one of the staff was able to get me one. We ordered the beef tamales which were flavorful, not too hot, and soft. The nachos were a large portion and I could have easily shared them. The best thing we got was their chocolate cake which was rice, moist, and very chocolatey. You can walk in from the front or back. There is plenty of seating in the back or outside in between the buildings. There is also a restroom you can use right in the middle of the restaurant in their short hallway. read more

We were in the mood for tacos and my daughter recommended this place as she had it before and said it was good. This is a place I have been wanting to try but always forget about it. I won't forget anymore after trying these tacos. I ordered the chicken tacos everything on it with a corn shell. Salsa, sour cream, pico, lettuce, cheese and they were really tasty. I felt as if I was in Mexico literally it truly had a authentic Mexican taste. I didn't care for the corn tortilla so I used a fork and ate it like a bowl. I actually am excited to go back to actually get a really bowl with rice included. The guacamole was fresh and delicious. I ordered a lime margarita and it was very good and refreshing. I tried my daughter steak tacos with a flour tortilla and they were really good also. They have a taco Tuesday where the tacos are dollar so I will surely be making this my new taco place. They ample amount of seating and even a outdoor space which I loved. It's set up like a chipotle feel but it's way better in my opinion.. Check them out!! read more

Finally found authentic Mexican Food in Cincinnati. This place has carnitas and great chicken. You order at the front and they fill your burrito with any of the many selections. It's not fancy but it's delicious. You can also order a family meal to go which I did. Your choice of meat, 2 sides and an ample stack of their homemade tortillas. I did and had several meals from it! They have seating inside and 2 tables outside but it's self serve & no alcohol. You can pick it up and take it home if you like. read more

Great tacos! The tortillas are worth it! If you want tacos this is the place to go. Nothing fancy, just your basic taco selections. Toritlas are handmade and you can tell the dofference. I can't wait to come back and try the nachos. read more

Loved this place! These were easily some of the tastiest Tacos I've had in Cincy. This place is based out in College hill, which a couple miles in from Northside. There's parking in the back. As you enter the main entrance, you have to order, and then grab your seat. A friend and I went in on Tuesday for their $1 Tacos. We had one of each, and it was amazing! We paired it with their drink options. Though all of them were diluted because of the watered down ice, some were still good. I enjoyed the Pineapple and Watermelon one. The Hibiscus one wasn't really my thing. Among the tacos, my favorite were the Fish and Pork ones. To sum this up, we shared a Tres leches cake, and it was INSANELY GOOD! Like I'm not really a fan of Tres leches cake, but this was fabulous, and every bite just melted in my mouth. Can't recommend this enough! read more

Yes. Yup. Absolutely. I stand behind this 100%. Calling all vegetarians and meatatarians and foodies. Get in here. The tortillas are one of the best that I have had in the city. The ingredients are fresh and the tacos are indeed tasty. As a vegetarian, I applaud that all of their beans are veggie friendly and tasty. Like other reviewers have noted, the flavors are simple. The salsas are delicious and up the spiciness/flavor level. But you cannot beat the price or the service. Everyone was super friendly and our made to order items were ready lightning fast. Such a welcome addition to the College Hill area!! read more
