Review Cielito Lindo - Denison

The food was absolutely amazing. One of the most enjoyable Mexican dishes I've had in a while this side of the border. Fair warning ⚠️ when it says spicy, they mean spicy. I love spicy food. Small language barrier but definitely manageable and worth it. Very friendly staff. Had an excellent experience. Camarones A La Diablo was my dish and the serving was huge. Well worth the money.

Update. I didnt get all the onions off. Now i am sick. Doubling over in pain.i will not be back. Used to love this place. I told lady at window twice no onions on my taco, because I can not eat them. I called when I got home. All they could say is I am sorry. So I am sitting. Hoping I got all the onions off my chicken taco.

Home style street tacos, amazing price for amazing food. authentic Mexican flavors

This visit was not as good as the first. We walked in to an unwelcoming environment. The phone kept ringing (the most annoying ring I ever heard) and no one answered it. There was only on other couple in the building. The waitress finally came over after about 5 minutes handed us a menu and took off before we had time to ask questions. We finally got our order in and the food arrive fairly fast. I had the chili relleno with beef. It had a good flavor but was very dry, the rice and beans were ok. It had a pile of lettuce with two small tomato slices and and two very small slices of unseasoned avocado. I was offered green sauce but I declined because my mouth was already on fire from the chips and salsa. The salsa tasted and had the consistency of tomato sauce with Tabasco sauce and chili powder but wasn't terrible. Connie had the chicken Tacos she said they were good but dry as well. We figured out that we had arrived 20 minutes before closing time which was probably part of the cold reception.(why would you close at 7 on a Saturday afternoon) but still it is what it is. My suggestion is that you greet you customers when they arrive and serve some sour cream and or queso with the meals. (old review)Everything was very good. The chili rellenos were exceptional. My wife said the Enchiladas were well seasoned but the tortillas were a little tough. The chips and salsa were good. The salsa was a little different than most Texmex more processed like ketchup but very tasty, it was on the verge of being too hot for me. I was surprised there were that many booths and a bar in that small looking building. It was clean and the people were friendly. Don't know if they serve mixed drinks but had Mexican beer specials posted. Definitely worth a try.

Incredible street tacos some of the best I have ever had !!! Margaritas on the rocks beautifully balanced not overly sour at all. I will be back time and time again 😁

DECENT STREET FOOOOOD!!! We thought we'd have to go back to Vegas or even Los Angeles to get some decent tacos SO HAPPY for real tacos!! I haven't tried their platters (look pretty good tho) so I can't pass judgment there but the tacos are bomb. As I'm starved for good Street food I'm bubbling with happy with this place, but all that happy aside here's the reality: fresh yummy awesome isn't cheap (small taco with onion cilantro a little jalapeno served with double white corn tortillas and a mild Verde/tomatillo salsa on the side) Props for having Mexican soda and agua fresca but the super sweet horchata was from concentrate. That said it was pretty dang awesome to put all that in my delighted face. Thank you Jesus, you really do love this old ex foodie hipster.

husband ordered the pork guisada and said it tasted like ketchup. his beans and rice were cold. returned it. the queso blanco was as thin as water. the flour tortillas were store bought i had the gordita. it was cold the meat was ok gave the husband the other one since he didn’t eat the plate he said the masa was dry. which it was. the only thing good was the green salsa and the chips

First time in. I wanted to try the street tacos. Pleasantly surprised at how good they were. Lesson learned to not judge a book by it's cover. I'll definitely be a repeat customer 🙂

Let me tell you, these are the best damn tacos and tamales I ever ate since I visited Mexico. Pastor (pork) tacos are my favorite so far then I had the chicken tamales which were a bang too! If you want authentic and delicious, then this place is for you! ����

The white queso dip was so good! Also tried the chicken nachos - awesome! Another tried the chicken street tacos and said they were amazing . . . and the tamales had more meat than mesa! If you haven't tried this place, you are missing out.

I was looking for a good mexican food place to eat. I stopped in here and WOW im hooked this is my new favorite place

This is my go to, best place to eat in all of Texoma!

Best food we’ve had in Denison. Everything was freshly made, authentic and delicious. Friendly service. Simple setting. We will return!

Actual "mexican" food. Great prices and freindly people. If you don't feel a little out of place going into an authentic mexican food resteraunt then something wrong. Only con, the salsa is hot and fresh jalapenos in things is not the proper amount of hot.

Have yet to have a bad experience here. Great Food and Great Service. Bonus: Has a drive in pick up

Best quesadillas ever! Salsa homemade. It was great. Highly recommended. So glad we stumbled onto it. Top notch service and great food.

By far the best food I've ever had. Service was excellent, food was phenomenal.

Expected chips and salsa with my meal. Besides that, food was really good

This place has great, authentic Mexican food! The service is always good, too.

Awsome oaxacan style food, brings back memorirs. Great molotes and memelitas.

I really like their babacoa tacos, and their rice and beans.. I normally do not care for rice, but, most of the time, their rice is amazing..

The food is always authentuc, fresh and delicious. Takes us back to Puerto Vallarta. This is not Tex Mex. This is real Mexican food and everything is good.

Authentic, good service, good food. It's also great that they speak good English and very friendly. Prices are very reasonable. My kids have even decided this is their favorite Mexican restaurant.
