Cielito Lindo

I love Cielito Lindo! I have been twice so far and both times the service has been great. The food comes quick, the atmosphere is cute and large enough for big groups, and the food is delicious. The price is also not too bad for the quantity and quality of the food. Great Mexican food!

It was just ok. Margaritas were made from a mix you can buy in the stores - NOT homemade. Food took awhile and the place was not that busy. Food was ok. Better than Taco Bell, but not by a whole lot. Portions were big, but . . . . Will I come back? No. The only reason we went here was because it was a Tuesday and Le Case de Alberto is closed on Tuesdays. Next time until Milwaukee on a Tuesday I'll go to Sobelmans.

I got a large order of food items for delivery via postmates around 10pm on a Friday night. Here's what I got:Ps every item came with a bit of a pico de gallo style salsa. It had a thin base with some fresh pieces of onions and cilantro. It was very delicious. It had the same sort of salsa flavor as jar / canned types except I could taste that it was fresher. Especially with those fresh onion - cilantro - tomato bits added to it. I really liked it. They also came with a thinner salsa that had bits of seeds in it, this salsa was understandably spicy. Don't get them confused!!1. Cheese nachos ($14.29) - - a small portion, great for one to two people - mine came with guacamole and I think maybe it's because I ordered so much food so close to closing time?? I don't know! I am very happy that they included it because it didn't say that in the menu and I was so torn about upgrading to the supreme nachos in order to get guac with it!! Very happy. - jalapeños were a tiny bit spicy for me but manageable (easy to remove if too much for you!)- small though appropriate amount of cheese no complaints, same with the beans. I tend to like mine with a lot of it. - sour cream was nice, the guac was also flavorful- overall the nachos aren't anything special and they are enjoyable. I would probably order them again if ordering from here. 2. Taco Dinner ($18.19)- the rice had good flavor - beans were just okay - I like that it came with 3 pieces of lime- the tacos were double wrapped with tortillas to keep the integrity of the taco so that was nice - the vegetables in the veggie tacos included: rice, beans, avocado slice, lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese. I definitely would've liked and even paid extra to be able to add more fresh cooked veggies like bell peppers and mushrooms to this instead of rice. 3. Cheese Dip ($7.79)Big fan. The cheese dip was one single consistently and had a mild jalapeño spice to it. The flavor reminded me of some sort of jar of Tostitos dip except I know that this one is made of real fresh ingredients because of the way the cheese hardens as it cools. So you gotta reheat the cheese to keep it melty. That's some nice dip!! It went PERFFFFECT with the fries. I would HIGHLY recommend getting a side of fries to go with this. 4. Order of Fries ($5.19)They were nice and oily and fried goodness. I dipped them in the cheese dip that I ordered separately and it was soooo good together. 5. Flan ($5.19)The whipped cream on top melted in transit so that made it look a little funny on delivery. It definitely made up for that in taste. It was gelatinous and delicious. All of my food tended to be on the lighter side of saltiness. I think this is a good thing because salt isn't great for a lot of people but it would've tasted better with more. I would recommend asking for it if you like it specifically because I appreciate them keeping their baseline food light on the salt! Hope this was helpful!

Very thankful for their parking lot in an otherwise street parking only area. Interior is very colorful as with many Mexican restaurants. They have a sky painted on their ceiling, perhaps to go along with their name, literally translated as "beautiful sky". First batch of chips and salsa comes complimentary as you're browsing the menu. In general their taco meats don't feel totally authentic and they skip all the exotic meat options and stick to good old pork, steak, chicken or ground beef. They also default to tacos with lettuce and tomatoes, but will ask if you want cilantro and onions. So I usually skip the tacos here and go for their plates. Molcajete is wonderful. It's got everything you want in a stone bowl and it goes a long way. The Bistec Perron, skirt steak with onions and jalapeño peppers (actually, just one pepper), has become one of my go-to Mexican dishes since being on keto, and is pretty delicious here. Menudo - I try this dish at all my favorite Mexican restaurants. I still haven't found a place that makes it as good as I remember it from California, but Cielito's menudo is the best one I've found in Milwaukee (and Racine, where my otherwise favorite Mexican restaurant lies). A steady favorite!

Wanted some tacos after the bar and this taco truck was one of the few places still open. Sad to see so many places not open late night anymore. But the food was delicious and filling! Check em out!

Food was delicious Margarita was not worth it to me, which is my only gripe. My family will be back for the food for sure! I think I may include this place into our restaurant rotations... that's how good the food is! I'm lowkey sad that we didn't try this place sooner lol.

Got our food less than 3 minutes after ordering. It was amazing. Combo 38. Enchiladas de mole. Fried ice cream. HOLY GUACAMOLE.

If this review had a title it would be Holy Mole! The boyfriend and I both ordered mole. Mine was the chicken enchiladas and his the chicken mole plate dinner. We both really liked the mole, it was slightly sweet and peanutty with a little spice, not smoky or chocolaty. I liked how the cheese was melted into crispy cheese chips around my enchiladas. The beans were pretty bland and the rice was standard. It was all around really good, though.

Food was amazing. My husband said his margarita tasted like it was made with sprite instead of lime but he still drank it. Will definitely be back. Husband got steak fajitas that he said were amazing. Picture of combination platter. Taco, enchilada, and chimichanga. Sooo good

This used to be my favorite Mexican restaurant. I do not know what happened, but the flavor of the food was just not there.I used to be able to order a combination meal and order different taco such as chicken, shrimp, or whatever meat of your liking. Now you have to order one kind of meat. I had no choice but to order chicken and it was tasteless. The food was cold. Very dissatisfied.
