Mama Lo Hizo

Great Tex mex spot inside Findlay Market. Get the big mamma. Everyone is friendly, place looks very clean & the food is delicious

I stopped by Mama Lo Hizo for a quick snack with my husband during a trip to Findlay Market. They have a pretty big menu, but the item that caught my eye was the queso filled corn muffin. It was everything I could've hoped for and more. It is literally a soft corn muffin with a hole in the top that they ladle queso into. Not sure why more places don't serve this. It was DELICIOUS!!

We visited the market during a busy Saturday afternoon and while talking to one of the vendors we asked where should we try.....she said this place had the best tacos! We tried the carnitas which was a limited time option and glad we did, I also tried the chicken. Not sure the marinade/sauce chicken was in but very good flavor, I also ordered some of the medium sauce on the side which wasn't too spicy and had great flavor. 4 tacos and a jarritos was $17, can't beat that at all!!!!!!! The guys working there we super nice and helpful with questions

I haven't been here in awhile. Once upon a time the fish tacos had a recipe that included cabbage and a cream sauce. Now you choose your toppings and the server tried to charge me for cheese (I would never on a fish taco)! My taco was nice.The customer service definitely left something to be desired. The female working seemed to be choosing who to be pleasant and patient with.

Fresh, yummy food served by friendly staff! I had got a lot of recommendations to come here during a trip to Findlay Market and I'm happy I did. It's hard to pass up a corn muffin with queso, which is just one of the things they serve. I also tried a potato pancake (this style was similar to a good hash brown) and a fish bowl (burrito ingredients just in a bowl). The fish portion was really big for my bowl so they definitely don't skimp when serving! A place to definitely check out on a visit to Findlay.

Looked like a small authentic Mexican Chipotle style place inside Findlay market. Turned out to be very bad. I got the steak burrito. White rice was plain, salsa had almost no flavor and steak was barely seasoned and also was not really served hot. Taco salad was some tortilla chips lining a plate with salad and toppings in middle. The meat sauce was cold and, again, everything had almost no flavor. Two thumbs down when the chain store is much much better than a small local place. I do not recommend.

By far my favorite place for tacos in the entire city, not just within Findlay Market. For a great price, you can get customizable tacos with a variety of fresh and delicious toppings. Come hungry too because they will load them up! I thought the chicken taco was my favorite option, but then I tried the scrambled egg option for breakfast one day and I fell in love.For toppings I definitely recommend the cheese (like a mild monterrey jack) and the pico. Most importantly, get the queso, either on the side or directly on the taco. And if you really love the queso like I do, then you must also try their queso-stuffed cornbread muffins. Your life will change for the better.

In the middle of the food hall, Mama Lo Hizo made a delicious grilled/baked fish burrito. With rice/beans/salsa, it made for a filling lunch. Great outdoor seating all around the market.

Honestly, this was most disappointing taco I've ever bought from a taco establishment. For one, it was COLD which I found very unpalatable... who wants a taco that tastes like the whole thing just came out of a fridge? I saw their back stock of ingredients and it looks like they hardly use anything fresh- mainly canned, frozen, and bagged stuff. And yet somehow they turn around and charge the same price as taco restaurants that actually use fresh, house-made ingredients. Overpriced, unsatisfying, not worth it.

this is one of my favorite places. not just in cincinnati but ever, in general. the taste and quality of the chicken is outstanding. the queso (melted and shredded) are both great. and it's unbelievably affordable. like $8 for a full sized bigger than chipolte burrito as of 2023 affordable. can't recommend enough.
