The 43 best spots for tacos in Columbus

Los Guachos is great! I’ve had almost all of their tacos and none disappoint. Great flavor and ingredients are simple. Salsas and guac are amazing too. Only complaint is the prices are a little high, but still worth it.

A quaint quick delicious bite that was wonderfully surprising. Clean bathrooms, kind service and delectable tacos. The carne asada taco were good and the al pastor were the best on the menu.

We’re very lucky to have a taqueria like this here. The tacos are excellent — easily the most authentic I’ve had in Ohio. They remind me of the street tacos I used to get in Phoenix. If you like spice, ask for their hot pepper at the counter. You’ll love it.

Fast service, nice buzzer to tell you when your order is ready, got some corn tacos and quesadillas, pretty tasty.

I’m always fair and honest. Food was really good. Unfortunately, the whole experience was killed by the service. The bartender wasn’t very attentive or welcoming from the first. Agree eating, I had to ask twice for the check and then finally when he gave it to me, I put money out immediately. He repeatedly walked by doing things like cutting limes or prepping. After he walked by the third time, I walked up to the girl at the counter to see if I could pay there and she looked at my check and said “he’ll get it.“ Literally would not cash me out. Small piece of advice: if you can’t do the basics or don’t want to be in the service industry or think you’re too cool to be in the service industry, then do something else. It ain’t that hard to be courteous to a customer. The whole group could not have been less welcoming if they tried. No food is that good to be treated like that. Won’t be going back.

Update: the service at this location has gone down hill. Their pickup order system is awful. For the second time I’ve came to pickup an order, paid and had a 10+ minute wait while my food was ready the whole time. Can’t go wrong with Los Guachos. Great weekly specials. Always enjoy the pastor tacos and the nachos are good as well. They recently added a bar so you can grab a drink with your tacos! Solid 4.5* in my book.

Los Guachos Taquería never disappoints! I always get the tacos al pastor—they’re incredible every time. I’m also a big fan of their plantains and chips. The food is consistently delicious, and the service is great too. One of my go-to spots!

This place reminds me of the modern, hipster, Mexican restaurants in LA or Mexico City. The main difference is the taste of the food. While the restaurant ambiance is excellent, the food is very average. The chips and salsa were okay - I'm not sure why they decided to cut the chips into awkward strip shapes. My steak fajita was a bit overcooked. I was disappointed by the use of American sour cream instead of Mexican sour cream which is more similar to creme fraiche. The pickled cucumbers were too sweet, like some of the salsas. It's always the fake hipster Mexican restaurants putting sugar in their salsas! I like that they serve yellow corn tortillas, and the tres leches dessert was tasty. The beans and rice were also very average. It's a nice looking restaurant for pictures, but I doubt I'd waste my money visiting again. Great service from the wait staff.

I've been here a few times in the past, but it had been awhile. It is a nice place in terms of decor and outdoor seating. I'll not say too much on the atmosphere and what a typical night is like because I've only dined here when there is a nearby event, but it is definitely busy during those times, and there is certainly a din in the dining room. It is in an excellent location within walking distance to various entertainment venus. The service was good, and the food was really tasty. This is what I would expect from an upscale Mexican restaurant, although price isn't always indicative of quality. The carne asada tacos were really good, and filling. My only real complaint is price, but it is the arena district so that isn't unexpected.

Stopped in for a couple of drinks. Courtney went out of her way to get us a couple of expresso Martinis. They were excellent. I had a Negra Modelo. Perfect. The restaurant has a very nice patio.

I am a California native and lived in Arizona for 16 years. I have become skeptical of Midwest Mexican food restaurants, but this place had great reviews, so I decided to give them a try. Wow, I am so glad I did. This was the best Mexican food I’ve had since moving from Arizona last year, and the service from Andrew was incredible. My teenage son and I loved the chips and salsas, and it was very evident that everything was made fresh in house. I had a refreshing margarita. My son ordered the quesadilla and loved it. I asked Andrew for a taco recommendation, and he said to get the pork al pastor. He did not steer me wrong. Those tacos were delicious, full of flavor and texture. I wish I could give Nada more than five stars. Everything about our meal there was awesome. I was happy to recommend it to other friends during the rest of my conference.

Nada is a fancy Mexican fusion restaurant. The place was well-decorated, warm, and clean. It was really interesting to walk around in the dining room. Tacos tasted mediocre, but Mac and cheese tasted impressive. The fried pepper powder made Mac and cheese flavorful and delicious. Service was good, however, the male manager was a little impolite when I asked if I could use Apple Pay. He replied me why I did not bring my credit cards. It was not my fault definitely. In the end, he did solve the issue. I was feeling not good when he said that.

So I did love that the place was really clean and well decorated the ambience was everything I was looking for! We were seated right away on account. I did have reservations I had their guacamole I’m going to give that a seven out of 10 would have been an eight if the portion was bigger. The chicken tacos were really good. Ate out of 10. The jalapeño cornbread was my favorite 10 out of 10. The food did take a while to come out. Not sure why because it was really empty. The margarita was worth every dollar. Definitely a nice state spot. Check it out if you’re in town.

Friendly staff and tasty food. We tried three sides and four mains. All were great and my favorites were the tacos. Enchiladas were a close second. Actually the most standout thing was a side, the corn bread which was exceptional. Fresh out of the oven and truly an evolution on cornbread. Crispy, gooey, sweet, salty, cheesy, moist yet crunchy. My mouth didn’t know what was going on only that it liked it and wanted more!

Really enjoyed our visit to Local Cantina! The chips and salsa station was a nice touch — fun, fresh, and both hot sauces were delicious. Our server, Axel, was awesome: super friendly and happy to answer all our questions. We had the BYOB and a Chileezo burrito, and both were flavorful and filling. Tried the Mustache Ride and Paloma cocktails — both were tasty and well made. Great vibe, great service. We'll definitely be back!

Would love to get exactly what we ordered without having to open each container and advise the hostess what is missing, allowing heat to escape, therefore exposing the warm food to room temperature.  We had missing side items for the Fajitas.  Had we not double-checked what we paid and tipped Local Cantina to do, we would have been eating plain steak on a flour tortilla.  We also added an extra side of cilantro lime rice but did not get it.  Disappointed about the lack of attention to detail that significantly affects the customers' overall experience.

local cantina is always a great time. tasty drinks, a fun array of food choices, and delicious desserts. good for solo dining or with friends!

Food and atmosphere were excellent, service was good but a bit slow. Margarita was good too. And the fried cheese appetizer is AMAZING!!

Loved the location, Unfortunately the food was not the best to me. The taco selection in my opinion didn’t live up to some other local competitors. While nothing was bad or wrong I didn’t love the flavors. Obviously that’s my personal problem. The salsa is a serve yourself station that if you didn’t know before hand it was hit and miss if they told you about it. My waitress did not unfortunately until later and it’s only a fairly spicy option. The margaritas are fairly good but not strong. They come in a small mason jar.

The food here is great. Service was fantastic and the prices were reasonable. Would definitely enjoy coming back here again. I had 2x saucy pig tacos and my date had a burrito that looked amazing and she said it was delicious.

I am so glad we found this local cantina! The interior vibe is very "dive bar" but with classical music in the background. The walls are covered with exciting eye candy and the menu has all the Mexican must eats. They have their house made "Baby Spice" hot sauce that they sell and lemme tell you, it tastes like: mild sauce met citrus. It's fantastic. I am visiting from California and had wanted to take a bottle home, but sadly, they are out of stock. Thankfully, they are giving us two containers to take back to our hotel! Yippee! We ordered a smothered burrito to share (red chili pork) and it's delicious! Perfect size to share with someone if you don't want to end up with a takeaway container. Service was extremely friendly and helpful and invited us back tonight after 9pm for the $2.22 tacos (Thursday only) and all day on Tuesday specials. Thank you Savannah for all your help with the menu and encouraging us to call other locations to see if we can get a bottle of the sauce to pack in our suitcase! We just might have to come back to watch the Celtics game

So I’m reviewing this location after visiting their stand inside the Arnold sports expo 2025. The food was premade but I loved that it was fresh and hot and delicious! My only “complaint” is that for the veggie burrito, all the rice seemed to be at the end of the tortilla . Spread that out and it’d be 5/5

I was really excited to have some good fresh tacos but was disappointed. I ordered 3 street tacos, 1 chicken, 1 veggie, and 1 pork. They were out of chicken (no big deal) so I got carne asada as a replacement. The corn tortillas were straight from a package, unheated. I have never been to a restaurant where the corn tortillas are served cold. The steak and pork filling was cold, the veggies were hot. The meat was dry, and with the cold crumbly shell it made it all that much drier, even with hot sauce. The hot sauce had a little heat, but didnt have much flavor. The service was great and the portion size was expected. I did go around 4, which seems to be a really slow time for the whole market, maybe that is why everything was cold. I may try there birria tacos, if I try again.

I finally decided to give this place a try even though it looked questionable when I've been to NM before. I ordered two steak burritos. Sadly, this is one of the worst burritos I've ever had in my life. As I bit into the first burrito, the rice was mushy, chewy, and hard during some areas. The guacamole was bland and looked a bit old. The lettuce looked old. Raw cheese. Steak tasted odd.After a few bites, I bit into the burrito and found a hair in the burrito. Disgusting. The second burrito had the same low quality and was overall unappetizing. I had to throw both burritos away because they were bad. Not worth the money and overall a sad experience considering I wanted authentic Mexican food. You're better off going to a Chipotle.

Had a couple bad experiences with forgetting to add the extra sauces after being charged $5 $6 because it's a dollar per sauce. Anyways they gave me a $20 voucher to make it right. And I must say they have made up for it plenty of times this is one of the best authentic Mexican food around town very delicious!

The food was expensive (14 for 3 tacos, 3 for some quite honestly gross and flavorless rice). I got a barbacoa, a carne asada and a carnitas street taco. The carnitas and carne asada were dry and had very little flavor, and the corn tortillas were not great quality. The barbacoa was good if not a little oily, but nothing to write home about. The rice was short grain, and had very little flavor. Overall will not be going again, there are better places to eat for cheaper.

We had street taco and Hermanos taco. Both were with beef. They were good.

I’ve tried it several times & the food is insanely mid every time. Honestly it’s nasty. Go. To. Taco. Bell. First. Seriously. I really don't know how they stay in business. Fast food is a better option. Oh yeah & $15 for a cheese quesadilla is insane.

Probably my favorite Mexican restaurant in columbus. Shout out to my boss who exposed me because it's definitely worth it and affordable. I spend about $20 if I get a drink, two tacos, a tostada & chips + guacamole. Tacos are delicious & it's one of the few places you can get a tostada that is crunchy and flavorful. Service is really good I've also had the horchata and cucumber agua fresca, would recommend them both. My go-to is guacamole+chips, beef or chicken street style tacos and or the chicken tostada. They also have good queso and rice and beans. I have not had a bad thing honestly.

The most authentic Mexican food I've been able to find in Columbus so far. Update: I ordered a burrito today and it came to me in a complete mess rather than wrapped. I had to ask for a fork and knife to eat it. Service was absolutely terrible. Really disappointed.

I’ve been coming since they opened! amazing food best around in Columbus but service and attention to detail is slacking

Service is friendly & quick! When you enter, take a seat at whatever table and your server will stop by. Ordered the corn tortilla tacos - both pork and steak are tasty. Recommend getting the “supreme” version for only .25 cents more. The supreme tacos include toppings like cheese, sour cream, onions, & cilantro. Grabbed apps like Queso & Guacamole - they taste so good when you dip them together. The chips are thick! Good amount of salt too. Besides the great food & staff - the music they play makes you want to get up and dance 💃!

I’ve been a customer here since they’ve been in business after the breakfast barn closed their doors. Burritos have always been exceptional as was the service. Unfortunately within the last 2 years both have had a huge decline!!! The young lady’s who answered the phone for take out orders are not customer service friendly and show absolutely no empathy when advised of disappointment of quality their food . No apologies but just an “okay “ when I asked that my burrito not be made again with old chicken that was hard enough to break the strongest teeth! And this is not the first time! The attitude I received was almost more so of me being a bother. Totally unacceptable and will take my spending power and sprinkle it elsewhere!

Tried for the first time today, very underwhelmed with how the food tasted.. I got chicken tacos with onion and cilantro. They look appealing but no taste and chicken is dry. It’s very bland and I had to use all of my red/green sauce to make up for the lack of seasoning on the chicken. Probably won’t return which sucks cause it’s close.

Very enjoyable. The chips are terrific, nice chunky guac. The shrimp Diablo had a great flavor, not burning hot but pleasant enough. Fresh tortillas on the quesadilla. Good service and great prices!

Amazing taste and order was given quickly! Would highly recommend eating here and enjoying their birria tacos!

Wanted something fresh and real for my birthday after visiting the RnR HoF in Cleveland. Awesome flavor; great service. Best burrito of the trip!

Get the birria tacos while they're still here, they are absolutely incredible. I can't stress enough, these are the absolute BEST tacos I've ever eaten in my life.

Decent tacos, solid, but pricey. I prefer La Poblanita close by. 2 carne asada tacos was $8.50 with 2 sauces. There are better taco trucks nearby, but the location is quite convenient

Tried and true Columbus tacos. After trying SO many places and getting nothing but trash, we finally came across Los Agavez. Everything here is great. They’re expensive, but delicious and consistent. Best pastor I’ve had and the asada and pollo asado are fantastic. The horchata is really well made too - but $5 for a normal cup size. We tried everyone’s recs for places when we moved out here a year ago and this is the only place that doesn’t disappoint and satisfies the taco craving. The staff are never rude and orders are correct.

These Birria tacos definitely meet the hype. Not too bad price wise either, I paid $10 for 3 tacos. My friend got a burrito which comes with chips and queso, also $10. I would highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't already! For being on high street, there is a relatively quiet environment with some benches to eat at. Only waited 10-15 mins. Gotta get the green sauce too, it's so good. Great service as well. 5 stars!

I came for Birria tacos but was told they only sell them Thursday-Saturday. I decided to try their carne asada tacos, and they did not disappoint! I am excited to come back to try their birria😊 10/10 experience and outcome🤩 UPDATE: WoW. I am speechless. I finally got around to trying their birria tacos. They’re spectacular! I will definitely travel almost 20min for their birria tacos ! 🫶🏽

I drove 30 minutes to try their food and it didn't disappoint! I had the carnitas torta it reminded me of the tortas from my Guanajuato. You can't find tortas like these in any nearby taco truck. The food was great and so was the service. Without a doubt the best tortas in Columbus. 5 stars! I will definitely be visiting again!

I love Latin food, and when I heard about this place I have been looking forward to coming here for a while. However, I and everyone I went with thought it was kind of mediocre. Not a ton of flavor in any of our dishes. We each got different things and for the price, service, and taste it was not worth it. I don’t think I’ll be coming back here unfortunately.

Pros- well seasoned food. Large portions which are great of sharing. El Pastor tacos come with pineapple-delicious. Space to sit and eat. Food comes out fresh and hot. Large parking lot. Opportunity- time to receive order was long. Maybe it was just a busy day.

Atmosphere is one of the good ol' hole in the wall places. Food and service are just as great! Definitely would recommend

Incredible authentic food at a reasonable price. You don’t wanna miss it if you are in the neighborhood

The service was very poor and unwelcoming. The meals are not prepared from fresh cook meal. They are very discriminative, and I feel safe that the food was not mind to eat. This place is absolutely horrible 😢

I asked for a quesadilla with asada but a young lady asked me to name one more meat which I picked Barbacoa, but once I got home, I looked in the box. It was a hard taco with just Barbacoa, lettuce, and avocado. It was my first time there never again

Amazing! I took one bite and audibly “mmm’d” :) I have to say, for a three ingredient taco, it has authentic written all over it. Living in Calexico and Imperial California left me craving authentic Mexican cuisine and it’s nice to know I can still find it in Columbus! The portions were great, 15$ for three tacos and a bottled drink was definitely worth the price. Only complaint is location, it’s on the side of Morse, pretty busy road but not the most appealing. Keep killin’ it Taqueria Jalisco!

Amazing tacos! Only problem is they gave me a grilled Serrano once and never again but it was so good the one time! None the less, way better than what you can find elsewhere

This taqueria is a hidden gem in the Easton area. I cant believe I lived in this area before and never visited. I got three different tacos, all three were pretty good!

This is the best taco truck in Columbus. I don't go anywhere else when I want tacos for myself, my wife or my four kids. When we have birthdays every one of my kids says that must go here. My son from Florida will only go here when he is in town and we go EVERY TIME he is here. This is MUST! A+++++ Food and service!!!

Wow!.. My friend recommended this spot to me; it's definitely not easy to discover on your own. It's a no frills, authentic Mexican food truck, and by far the best street tacos I've ever had in the Midwest!. Pollo, pastor, and asada all had excellent and uniquely different flavors. Chicken tacos can easily be boring, but they make it exciting. That asada flavor was 10/10. The birria was super tender, and texture was the star over flavor. They're not stingy on meat portions either. The salsa verde meshed well with all of the tacos. The tortillas tasted super fresh. This honestly feels like a SoCal taco truck. Service is quick, and they have a couple of covered tables if you want to sit and dine. Do yourself a favor and check this spot out!

The underground location was very nice and it was a fun place to eat. The server was very friendly. I would definitely recommend checking out it. The taco's were quite large and filling. If they ask if you want cheese on the taco's it's actually fried cheese, I personally wasn't actually a fan of it, and would recommend not getting it as I think it ruins the "taco flavors" (too overpowering and it was more than I would have wanted to pay anyway). They aren't exactly authentic, at least not the pastor, as it's just pork meat diced and cooked, not cut off the spit, which certainly adds a different flavor. Not to say they were bad, but just giving the expectation. Overall, I definitely recommend this place.

Best tacos ever!! The only down part is they cook pork on the same grill as all the other meats. This place tries to be inclusive of all different dietary restrictions but this is a small business and they do what they can to get by.

Overall great, nice taco, good portions. My first taco was cold and the manager Hunter quickly gave me a replacement. They are juicy and tasty. He says that some toppings need to be cold for food safety, it hurts the texture a bit but understandable. On my way out somehow three teens rushed in and threw an egg inside. Some egg white splashed on my shoes and the waitress' hair. Absolutely ridiculous and hilarious at the same time, pure highstreet moment.

Tacos taste good but I’m very confused as to why no limes nor sauce were given. We ordered one burrito and three make your own tacos (corn taco, 3 different proteins, and cilantro and onion topping). So the protein tastes good but why did I just pay $5 per taco and I don’t even have a lime? Also, why is there so much onion and no cilantro… I would think taco chefs would understand a “street taco” style. Disappointing.

Fantastic food. We went late night so it wasn't too busy. The music and atmosphere were good. Service was ok and food was great. Definitely recommend, my company recommend the blue dream taco and it did not disappoint. I was able to try their chicken bacn ranch and the meat was so flavorful and delicious. You won't go wrong here.

My partner and I eat here quite frequently since we live so close, and not once have we had a bad time here. Staff is great, food is always out quick and tastes amazing. On the busier days it’s lively and lit up with conversation and the slower days is more personal. All in all I recommend quite heavily

First time here in Columbus. Stopped in to grab a feed after a long while of travelling and had a great experience with the server Debbie. She was so warm and welcoming and gave us great tips about the area. Such a vibe

I've had it several times but this was probably the best meal I've ever had from there. They have a nice variety. And it's a cool place to go and hang out for a little bit. I went to the one on campus which I wouldn't normally do but it was lunch time and it wasn't very crowded at all.

condados is and always will be a comfort place for me. from the ambiance to the people, it’s got a vibe and it’s a good one. the staff here are great people and you can tell by the way they treat their guests. food as always is top tier for late nights. came in for a quick bite before driving for 14 hours tomorrow and i’m glad i ended up here!

Tasty food and pretty good service st this local Mexican restaurant. The salsa was chunky and had a mild sweetness to it making it irresistible. Ordered the chicken fajita and it was amazing, super flavor and filled me and the wife up with one meal. We took churros to go and dam they were tasty..

El Vaquero Mexican Restaurant in Columbus was a solid spot for Mexican cuisine. While the food itself was fine, the drinks were truly the standout—well-crafted and very enjoyable. The overall vibe of the restaurant was a bit unusual, with the host using a loudspeaker that cut through the ambient music, creating a somewhat hectic atmosphere. The place was packed, and service was a bit disjointed. Our waitress was seldom seen, with food, drinks, and courses delivered by different staff members. However, everything generally arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Despite the quirks, it was an overall decent dining experience.

El Vaquero Mexican Restaurant: A Delightful Dining Experience ​El Vaquero Mexican Restaurant offers a truly delightful dining experience. The food is delicious, and the ambiance is incredibly inviting, with various sections each creating its own unique "micro-environment." Everything was excellent on my visit! ​The food was generously served, with abundant portions that were rich in flavor. The service was both friendly and fast, even though the restaurant was only at about 20% capacity. A fantastic bonus was the complimentary chips and salsa, provided in a large quantity. All of this comes at reasonable prices, making El Vaquero a fantastic choice for Mexican cuisine.

Large menu. Plenty of options. Lunch was fast, hot, and delicious. My waiter was terrific. Great atmosphere. Outside dining was pleasant. Lots of free parking. Prices are very good for the area. Definitely recommended.

This place is expensive!!! My food was pretty good, and the waitress comped our dessert for the long wait, which we didn't even care about haha... I had the Mango Tea cocktail and it was okay, I think the liquor doesn't mix well with the tea so it was a lot of straight sipping liquor. I had the enchiladas and sopapillas. The atmosphere is good, and the staff are all incredibly friendly, you can tell they like their job.

We enjoyed the perfect patio graduation party! THANK YOU El Vaquero for making our daughter's party so special. We're grateful for every memory we've shared with you over the past 30 years Aniceto Peralta, Efrain Quezada, Juan Morales & Ruben Peralta, Letty Quezada and Jenni Moreno xo We are so thankful for all of you!!!!!!!!!!

It was good, but I ordered tomatoes, lettuce, and sour cream for 1.99 extra, and they only gave me those two tiny tomatoes. I expected diced I guess, not two quart sized pieces of tomato

Some of the best nachos I’ve had in town. Service was great, pricing fair and food came out hot/fresh. Only complaint was that the waters tasted bad (maybe tap water, maybe bad filter). Otherwise will definitely be back to try other menu items!

Our first time here but a return visit for several friends we met there the night we went. Waitress remembered the orders of our friends. Was pretty impressive even for my friends that she remembered. She was great! Super funny. Food was delicious.

Absolutely love this place! One of my favorite mexican restaurants around. Staff is always fast & friendly, food is delicious and served very quickly, and the prices are excellent. I like getting the loaded nachos for only $9!! Also have enjoyed tacos, quesadillas, and burritos too. Always recommend this place!

Great cozy Mexican restaurant. Food tastes good. People are very nice. Big servings.

Beautiful atmosphere and quick service and delicious food here . I visited during lunch and loved it . Server and other people say hello as soon as you walk in. Food very good 😊❤️

Food and drinks were amazing! Decent service, had to hunt him down a few times bc he kept disappearing for long amounts of time and the room wasn’t that busy. Margaritas are as big as your head!

This was the most bland Mexican food I have ever eaten. We got chicken soft tacos and enchiladas. I asked the lady to not have any sour cream. She looked at me like I had 2 heads for that simple request. Of course, I had to dump a small portion of the enchiladas in the trash because they had sour cream 🙄. Plus I almost chipped a tooth on a bone in the chicken. Shocked by the good reviews.

sunsets. hawks and eagles. waterfalls. $10 la casita fajita lunch. just naming things I think are beautiful

Guys this place healed me. I got the Las Yolandas Enchiladas I think and genuinely, I cannot make this up, it brought me to tears. I love this place, I will be back and I will bring everyone I have ever met here with me. A divine force brought this place into existence and it is a gift to everyone who comes here. Thank you La Casita, I love you.

Unbelievably Bad Experience - Will Never Return! This was by far the worst restaurant experience I’ve ever had. The staff was rude, unprofessional, and completely disrespectful. To make matters worse, I found a hair in my food. When I pointed it out to the server, he didn’t even apologize or offer to fix the issue. Instead, he took all of our food away and told us to leave. The whole experience felt disrespectful and, to be honest, downright racist. The way we were treated was unacceptable, and I would strongly advise anyone to avoid this place. I will never be coming back.

Daughter and granddaughter took me here for my birthday. First time there. Food was good. As well as everything else. Only thing was we couldn't locate our server for our check. Had to go up front to have them find her. I would definitely go back. Worth the visit.

This is my fiance and I's favorite Mexican restaurant. The food is always great tasting and the service is excellent as well. We've come here on a busy Saturday night and a day where we were the only patrons dining at the time and the quality has never lacked. I definitely recommend dining here!

Super fast friendly service, and very authentic place I love the corn tortillas and I got one chicken one beef The sauce is really nice authentic spicy and the rice and beans were excellent too Nice price point!

I got the “La Casita” Fajitas which included grilled steak, chicken, shrimp and mushrooms. On the side was flour tortillas, beans, mexican rice, guac, sour cream and pico. The service at La Casita was great and our waiter was very attentive. The food overall wasn’t quite that tasty overall. The salsa which came with free chips at the beginning was quite bland and didn’t have a lot of flavor. The sizzling plate of fajita meat had quite a lot more ratio of vegetables than it did meat. Overall the experience was nice but the food is just not worth going back for in my opinion.

Such a gem of a place. The interior is unlike any I've ever seen in Columbus or elsewhere. It's thoughtfully decorated from corner to corner, with really special touches that must have taken some serious curation. It's a warm retro vibe without feeling like a caricature or replica. Despite how packed it was, the service was so friendly and the drinks were delicious. They even have some seriously great vintage for sale in the back. I can't think of another place that can flawlessly pull off tacos + vintage within a few hundred square feet. This place, Little Palace, and Club 185 are three of my favorite places in this city for being affordable and laid-back without compromising service and quality. It's no coincidence they're all sister restaurants.

Cozy space with eclectic decor. Fish tacos were really excellent and there were great prices for most menu items. Good cocktails, great service. Very unpretentious. Will be back.

The perfect place to grab a margarita, tacos, and good vibes! We hosted a small get together around 9 pm and had the best time.

A great place for a chill dinner that makes you feel in a different time. El Camino Inns environment, service and food is superb to say the least. The deals are great, it's not overly busy at dinner time and I honestly felt like I was in a movie. Also happy hour deals are great! 5/5

Went in for drinks, drinks were better than I thought they'd be. Not a big mixed drink fan, but I did not regret the margarita nor the Paloma. Both were great. The atmosphere was nice, the decorations were very mid-century, and it was very well put together. The seating is different, it's like sitting in a different part of your aunt and uncle's house, but in a good way. The bamboo tiki bar or the redwood deck furniture, which is where I'm sitting next time. Or you can sit at the bar which was very well laid out with a very large fish hanging over it. I had a great time and I will be going back. As far as price, the drinks were well made and not that expensive. The ingredients list was extensive, had some really nice tequila listed. Actually have a cigarette machine beside the bar, hadn't seen one of those in 25 years, it doesn't work, which kind of sucked. But I get it nobody wants to smoke anymore. A patio on the back would be nice someplace where you could sit and maybe smoke a cigarette that you got out of the machine, who knows or a cigar. They have that whole Madman Don Draper thing going on with the mid-century modern furniture. Again it was nice, kind of like stepping back into the 60s and '70s hanging out at your aunt and uncle's house, the fun ones.

We made a quick stop here on a Thursday evening before a concert at the statehouse and loved it. It wasn't at all busy at this time, and it was just short walk to the statehouse from here. Had a great margarita and the Trio of chips with salsa/guac/queso. Everything was fast and fresh. Love the thrift shop decor! We will definitely be back to try more of the food.

So happy their open again, cool atmosphere and good affordable food. We went in and our server let us know happy hour was basically ending but got all our stuff in on time and was super nice. It was slammed and she was manning pretty much every table but was still super accommodating. Will make this a regular stop

01/20/2025 - I recently visited this Condado Taco for the first time and was pleased with its spacious interior. They also had a nice outdoor patio. Nice bar set up. I ordered for carryout 3 chicken tacos on hardshell and they were good. Psychedelic drink menu. A few and mounted big flat screen tv’s for your entertainment. This evening was busy for carryout. Highly recommend placing an order in advance. Friendly service. Limited and timed parking nearby. Decent prices.

It’s conveniently located near the Ohio Theater and Scioto mile but the food is just so so compared to other Condados locations. I order two tacos with onions and cilantro and the were pitifully onioned with no cilantro. The service was just okay, our food came out very fast which was nice but we had to wait a while for drink refills and for our check

Went in with my now fiancé for some of my favorite rango tango tacos! It was busy but we found a spot at the bar and was promptly greeted by Kristen asking what we’d like. I immediately ordered (we were starving) and she got it right in. It came out so quick and was delicious. Kristen served us the rest of the night and was very attentive, personal, and gave great recommendations. Awesome place, better service!

This is a very Americanized taco joint, nothing remotely near authentic. Food was eatable, but surprizingly flavorless. We are not locals. We online ordered the taco bowls for takeout. Website ordering is well designed. Orders were ready when we arrived, and accurate. Too bad our taste buds were disappointed, as we anticipated the seasonings of real Mexican cuisine.

I am from Texas and this place is on my favorite map marked. This was my total of 3rd time here visiting and the food always good, service is outstanding from the moment of greeting till saying goodbye.

Wonderful experience! Gloria was kind and very helpful, her recommendations were spot on. The food was served lightning fast and tasted delicious and fresh. 100% recommend.

We had a group of 6 and came to the South High St. (downtown Columbus) location during lunch rush but Niles was amazing! He was very attentive and patient explaining the different food options for us. Make sure you ask for Niles!

We ordered the chilaquiles with chicken the chilaquiles sauce was super salty. The French fries were salty, where you can see the amount of salt they added on. Also, the service was not great. We got there and didn't feel welcomed no hello or guidance on where to sit, they basically said sit anywhere, which is okay. But took a while to give us service. When I asked the waitress about the menu items she was very unsure of what the menu items had. The steak tacos were okay, however there were several peices of fat instead of actual steak. The biggest let down and disappointment was the chips and salsa, the salsa was straight up Herdez canned salsa all they did was add cilantro and onions- this is supposed to be mexican food what is this. Lol. I couldn't believe it. The margarita was premixed, like the one you find at the store, all they did was pour it over ice. I do not recommend this place, food was below average, salsa was store brought, service was lack luster they're not even trying. We ended up spending about $68 on the food, which was a huge disappointment.

The tacos here were phenomenal. From clearly fresh ingredients to that authentic grilled taste on the steak, this place makes some amazing Mexican food. Can't wait to go back!

I gave this place 4 stars just to be polite. The service they provided was very good they are very attentive to customers. The food is not so good in my opinion. I ordered a Bistek Ranchero and chips and salsa (The Chips and salsa are not free they charged me $7.27 for them) The salsa was not homemade it's store bought it tasted like Rotel. My bistek ranchero meat was over cooked and the beans and rice did not taste fresh. Everything tasted like it was from the day before nothing was fresh. Also the a/c was off so it was hot in there. I wish this restaurant the best their customer service is very good they just need to work more on their food. Finally don't charge for Chips every good mexican restaurant offers complimentary Chips and HOMEMADE salsa.

I really use to love this restaurant. It seems like it’s under a new management from a year ago or something. The food just isn’t that same. I hope they pay attention to the reviews and make the necessary changes.

This place is a hidden gem. Authentic Mexican flavors, all the things we tried were delicious. Gorditas, tacos and the chilaquiles with Carne asada just on point. I just wish they open earlier in the morning to have breakfast there. Service is fast and friendly.

Food was absolutely delicious as well as the margarita! The business does look a little shady when approaching but I think it’s because of the attached drive thru and constant traffic, but we still gave it a shot! Not much seating inside but they are never busy. We didn’t get the customer oriented vibe when we came. The women behind the counter/checkout didn’t seem to pay much mind to the customers only when you ordered. Not once was we checked on. Regardless I would order takeout and come back to try another dish! Definitely a legit example of a hole in the wall. But good food!

This was my first visit. I ordered the Cubana Torta, Large Guacamole, and the Grilled Chicken Fajitas De Pollo. Both were amazing. Unlike some Tortas I've had recently where it seemed thrown together, this one was constructed with love. You can tell by the depth of flavors and how each ingredient in the Torta presented itself both individually and as part of the flavor explosion one expects with a Torta. My wife loved the Fajitas. She said it's some of the best Fajitas she's had in awhile. That's high praise she does not give often. I will be going back. I didn't know they had indoor dining until I went inside to place my carryout order. I will be back! Please be patient as it takes time to cook the meal. My wait was more than worth it (less than 10 minutes). 5 stars

It’s been a while since we visited Catrina from their previous location. This new location is great, decent restrooms and a nice sized dining area. The food is very authentic, it’s potentially my favorite in all of Columbus. There’s usually a new special of the day almost every time I’ve been. Worth checking out, the family who runs the place is very kind and welcoming. They also sell alcoholic drinks, try the Cantarito!

My husband and I dined in around 4 PM, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. We waited over 15 minutes just for chips and salsa—only to be told they had run out. How does a Mexican restaurant run out of chips and salsa, especially that early in the evening? The service was slow throughout our visit, and when the food finally arrived, it was completely lacking in flavor. We were really looking forward to a good meal, but everything tasted bland and under-seasoned. Definitely not worth the wait or the price. We won’t be returning.

Our waiter was very helpful in his suggestions. The food was some of the best Mexican we have had in Columbus. We really enjoyed our time.

Great lunch experience. Got the birria tacos and they are some of the very best I've had. Definitely will be coming back with whole family. Also, they're Crew fans so it's an extra reason to support.

We recommend the Mexico City taco, and House Enchillada plate. The guacamole was so fresh and we appreciate a iced mugged foe our Modelos.

Really friendly staff and delicious food, come check it out. I have had tortas before too and are very large and tasty

We dined here on a Sunday evening with our friends who had been there before. The first positive, they are open late on Sundays. The restaurant has a new owner, a lovely couple with a small number of staff to help. Taking this in consideration, their service is slow but is warm and excellent. They really care to ensure that you are feeling comfortable and are served the food the right way. One of the owner also runs the kitchen. So do consider their hard work and dedication in running the restaurant. The menu has a wide selection of authentic Mexican cuisine. This is a welcome change compared to run-the-mill rinse-and-repeat cheesy fatty flavorless food you could find in big-name local chains. My Son and I loved the Quesabirria tacos. They were flavorful, not greasy, and done with the right amount of filling served with a healthy side of consome. The Enchilada Verdes, both vegetarian and shrimp versions, were refreshing with light but tasty sauces. The presentation is simple and homely. They do not have a kids menu but were able to make a Chicken burrito. That was a hit with my 5-year-old. We loved the huge serving of horchata. It had just the right amount of sugar and was lighter to drink. Felt like a healthy version of the drink and we loved it. Like I said, be patient and you will be rewarded with good food. I hope they will speed up the service as they staff up over time.

I have visited north market to get some dinner when I was in Columbus. I went there twice actually. They have a variety of food options to consider including Jeni’s ice cream! I got some pizza and some ice cream during one visit and enjoyed the food! Specifically the ice cream! On my next visit, I got food from Hoyo’s and it was very tasty too! There is an eating area one floor above with lots of chairs and tables. It closes at 7 PM (when I went there in August), so I had to check the timing a little carefully. It was easily accessible from my hotel by walk.

What a fantastic place! So much good food! A lovely jewelry vendor, flowers, oils, cheese! Was our first time visiting and we will be back. Nice and close parking garage. Be sure to get your receipt for parking garage from the vendor you buy from. This is good for one hour of parking. Highly recommend North Market for a bite to eat and some local shopping.

If I could leave a higher rating i definitely would. I went there with my boyfriend for the first time and my eyes immediately lit up! The food looked absolutely amazing, the pricing was way better than I had expected. The wait time for the food wasn’t nearly as long as I had anticipated. I will definitely be going back as many times as I’m able! I recommend the Birria tacos, 3 tacos for $14! As a bonus you are able to sit and overlook the whole place!

First time here; quaint little place downtown. Great for new finds of food, coffees, oils / spices, desserts. Has a variety of cuisines, there is something for everyone. Seating indoor and outdoor, perfect for a lazy weekend or to meet with friends. Parking validation offered from one of the vendors I purchased from but didn’t accept when leaving garage. This would be the only downside - which could have been a fluke. Can’t wait to go back!

Neat place. Lots of variety. Lines weren’t too long during lunch. Loved the upstairs seating. Would have liked napkins there too.

North Market in Columbus is a foodie paradise with an amazing array of flavors and cuisines! From coffee to Italian, pho, ramen, Mexican, Indian, African, Mediterranean, and even oysters, there's something for everyone. Just a heads-up: it closes at 5 PM on Mondays, so plan accordingly! The air-conditioned space was a blessing on a hot day, although shopping options for gifts were limited—except for a great card store. I was bummed that Foxes Bagels was closed, as I've heard great things! Overall, a vibrant spot worth exploring! 🌟

Love this market! So many choices for food, or gifts, or whatever you crave. This reminds me of a European style market. Great place to grab a quick bite.

This place is so frikken cool and the food was delicious. They have indoor and outdoor seating available. It looked super small at first but it was surprisingly comfortable. Also did I mention the food was amazing!? Highly recommend and dont forget to leave your mark while you're there!

Always a great place to visit. The food is delicious no matter what you decide to choose. You really can't beat the sweet & spicy bacon. I highly recommend getting an order with any of their menu items. The Nutella Pancake balls are also good. They can be a little rich tasting for those that aren't a fan of Nutella, but they offer seasonal and a variety of flavors for the pancake balls. The restaurant has a very cool atmosphere but it has very limited seating inside. There is plenty of outside seating for larger groups when the weather is nice.

Overall, it was a pleasant experience. The staff were nice and we didn’t have to wait long for our food even with it being so busy. It was my first time here and I had heard so many things about their pancake balls. They looked great, but were extremely overrated. There was barely any filling in them and tasted very bland. On the other hand, their fresh orange juice and sweet n’ spicy bacon were delicious. I would definitely come back just for those two, but not the pancake balls. Seemed a little too pricey as well.

Awesome atmosphere, kind attitudes, and great food! The Hibiscus tea was soothing and the Hens in a basket chefs kiss🤌🏽. Coming all the way from San Antonio Texas will definitely recommend to my fellow travelers and will be coming back soon! Thank you for the awesome experience and letting me draw on your walls.

If you are a fan of pancakes, @katalinascafe is the place to go in Columbus, OH. They have really good American-Latin fusion brunch. They are very popular for their pancake balls; I had their Dulce de Leche pancake balls, which looked tasty and tasted even tastier with their cup of syrup on the side. I personally think that their sweet spicy bacon is the star of the menu, is the perfect combination of sweet and spicy, and it was perfectly cooked. They also have their own homemade drinks. I recommend their Horchata and orange juice. It is a very small establishment so you might struggle with getting a table or parking. Great staff and great atmosphere.

Disappointed. I’ve seen this place be so popular. I ordered food online to take home (I live 6.5 hours away) and it wasn’t ready when it said it would be. No big deal but the biggest disappointment finding that my pancake balls had no filling at all. It was too late for me to turn around and say something at this point. Will not be coming back.

Okay. Let’s just talk about the Pancake Balls for just a minute…. Such awesome innovation and absolutely delicious. We were there first thing in the morning when they opened, and the whole staff was ready for us with a smile. Monica took our order and brought the food, and she is absolutely awesome. Friendly, patient and welcoming. The breakfast tacos were out of this world and the service was outstanding!!! Highly recommend this place…

We booked this place for 8 people ahead of time. We got a secluded and private room where we enjoyed like anything. I think only missing part was some good music but overall the service was just fantastic. Now coming to food it was delicious. We ordered chili cheese fries, nacho deluxe both as appetizers and chimichanga (chicken) as main course. Everything tasted so good. Being a big fan of cheese I felt it was bit over cheesy but no complaints 🙂 We will surely come back again! Thank you for serving us 🙂

We came to Chile Verde for lunch on Saturday, and inside was surprisingly empty. I'm not quite sure why, because the food is delicious. I came here under a recommendation that Chile Verde is WAY better than El Vaquero, so we tried it out and the statement was absolutely right. When we were being seated, we noticed the atmosphere and design of the restaurant was really fascinating and neat. There were lots of Native American, Mexican, and South Western themed pictures and decorations hanging. As soon as we sat down we were served tortilla chips and salsa. The chips were warm and crunchy, and the salsa didn't taste poured out of a jar and tasted fresh. While we munched on the chips, we ordered a few margaritas off their drink menu. I had the 1800, which tasted really refreshing and vacationy. Highly recommend drinking it out of the glass and not the straw that it's served it. The rim of the glass is salted so it strengthens the flavor even more. Then my Albuquerque Platter arrived, which is a plate with slow marinated chicken, lots of shrimp, and sauteed chorizo. The dish comes with black means, but I substituted it out for the red rice, which was a great addition to the dish. Additionally, the platter came with flour tortilla wraps but honestly I didn't want to mess with the flavor and I didn't think it really needed to be wrapped. It tasted amazing off the plate. The mashed potatoes were served on a small side dish, and they weren't bad but maybe tasted heated up to me at least. I'm just not a mashed potato fan, and if you aren't either consider subbing the mashed potatoes out for something else off their side menu. Great space and amazing food. The portion size was no joke, so I had to take it home. Later in the day, I ended up finishing my leftovers, and they tasted even better after the flavor has settled. Definitely will be back!

Chili verde is a good southwestern mexican restaurant. Always dependable with good food and good service. Four stars might have been five stars but the food took a little long to arrive at the table even though the waitress did apologize and had a valid excuse. The second margarita was late as well but it didn't matter cuz the first margarita did its job. We will return.

We moved to Columbus a year ago, we are originally from New Mexico and in heaven we found this totally authentic New Mexican food. Wife had a Navajo taco and I had to get a taste of everything to confirm it’s authenticity so I had an Enchilada, Tamale and Chile Relleno and both the Chile sauce and salsa’s were spot on. Wait staff was great, restaurant clean and totally great quality!!!! Found are place to go!!!

Typical Mexican restaurant. Went during Cinco de Mayo. Hostess station was outside. Celebratory entrance I suppose. Nothing exceptional. Waitresses seemed overworked. They handled it well. Great work ethic. Food was good. Nothing stood out as Wow. Environment was typical. Basic place. Noting separates it from others.

I love this place and have been going here since the 1990s. I know it has changed ownership but it's still wonderful. It's about a 40 minutes drive from me now but I still make the trip once a month. The chips and salsa are delicious. I had the lunch portion chimichanga today with pork. The pork was overflowing and very tasty. I recommend the spicy beef if you want something with a kick. The staff is polite and attentive.

New Mexican food, not Mexican food. As a native New Mexican, this is comfort food. Many of the dishes are prepared with Hatch green chili. As a former New Mexican and Ohio State alum, i can only say that this is T.B.D.G.C.I.T.W., that is: Green Chili, and World. Try the Green Chile fries, or Chicken Chimichangas with cheese and Green Chile sauce. Fantastic food and service. I eat there frequently, but I'll try to leave some food for you if you stop in.

Mojarra frita con caldo was not cooked right😢 first came out burnt and they brought me this which isn’t even cooked right. Wasn’t taken out my check but didn’t add the churros I got at the end not even half of what it cost off but it’s all fine. Won’t come back. Really disgusted hopefully I don’t get a stomach ache 😣 also for kids meal it indicated includes drink but I got charged for one drink and they say it’s only for one meal after the second meal for kids the drink get charged I have two kids and bought a meal each but only one drink was included they say 😅 which isn’t logical but okay.

I've been going for over a decade. While the decor has changed slightly over the years, the food has been the same for me. Service is always extremely fast and courteous. The food is value-priced, and good for what you pay. I go because it is reasonably priced good food that is provided quickly and with respectful service. I've never once in over a decade had a bad experience, but I've never been blown away either.

Cute little restaurant. I had the burrito barbacoa and my friend had the tacos Al pastor. The meals were fantastic! I feel like the barbacoa could’ve used more seasoning but it was very good. Chips were a bit stale. And was not a fan of the salsa. We did come in on cinco de mayo so any other small complaints aren’t valid, they were packed. We’ll be back

They have the BEST salsa and these drinks are absolutely delicious! Absolutely amazing! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy yet stylish. I can’t wait to come back!

Nice restaurant that has fast service. The food was good.i like that my meal came with a mini cup of queso. I ordered the Jalapenos Botana and Tacos de Carne Asada. I wasnt the biggest fan of the steak( kinda bland) but everything was overall good. Id recommend this place. Didnt like the fact i saw a worker barehand some cut up limes and toss them into a togo box.

Food was great, service and atmosphere was exceptional. More than ample parking with fast lunch time service for those on a time sensitive schedule. Highly recommend the papá loca

I have been coming here since a kid, like literally since elementary. The food and atmosphere have always been A1. The prices are very fair, they have some of the best Guac in the world, and the patio is awesome. On this most recent visit my waiter was extremely slow with assisting me I had to flag him down to take my order after waiting about 15 minutes, but I can say that is not the norm at this place. Besides that I have nothing negative to say about this place. It's a wonderful place for a cheap date night, a family meal, or to order takeout.

Stopped in to see how if we found a new regular spot- we have not! The lunch portion fajitas were good and a good portion. The chicken tenders and fries caused me angst. They charge a $4 up charge for anyone over 12 getting the same portion of food- this always blows me away. I asked the server and he told me he would ring it at the 7.95 under 12 price. I told him we were prepared to leave as I wasn't paying $4 more since they didn't offer a hi Ken tenders appetizer for my son who doesn't enjoy Mexican fare. We could have and should have just left, but he confidently indicated it was not big deal, "I got you". We ordered and enjoyed some of the chips and salsa provided. We also had water to drink. When they brought the chicken tenders and fries I was suprised by what I saw. They literally cut a tender in half and we got 2 chicken tenders and fries, and as you can see from the inside, little chicken inside. 🤯 my mind was blown 😂 we laughed and decided to just eat and we could grab my son something in the way home if he was still hungry. Then the bill came and the server didn't have me, as you can see it was charged as the price with $4 more. After a long discussion with him (he tried to say maybe it was the service fee that was different 3% service charge for using a credit card! I explained that the record shows the cost of $4 more and 3% of $100 would only be $3 so that couldn't be it...the manager came over and he explained the policy and how he doesn't set prices. I explained that I understood, but we were going to leave until the server told us he would just charge the $7.95. The manager didn't know how to refund the bill to correct, had to call someone, ended up reprinting the record and took my card again. The server came over and said he did it right, must have been the POS...um no - the machine doesn't know how old someone is... Just own it dude. Ultimately, I am waiting to see when the credit occurs, they did not provide me with a credit slip and there are 2 charges on my credit card as of today. I don't think we will be back.

I come here about once a week the service and food has declined every time I come the service and food got worse. Today was the cherry on top. Server was rude when I asked for no bacon on my popper as I don’t eat pork this is a request I make every time and it has never been a issue today he insisted he couldn’t do that I explained I get it that way every time. My food comes out my steak was suppose to be medium when I tell you it was burnt to where I couldn’t chew it also my salad was placed on a hot skillet making my guac and lettuce cooked which is not how it is served I know because I eat here so often. When I told my server he was rude and said I don’t know what you want me to do I put it in medium I’m not the kitchen. When I told he he could just take it off I’m fine on a remark he snatched food and stormed off. No apology for the inconvenience just attitude. When I was he was the manager her informed me he was the manger on duty. His name was angel. I been rocking with them for yearss but it the quality is nothing how it use to be between servers and the food.

I've been to Cazualas many times and the food is always absolutely fantastic. It's what keeps me coming back. Unfortunately what keeps me from coming is how terrible the service is here consistently. Most of the time is pretty standard, but some days (when they aren't even busy) it takes 10-15 minutes to find our waiter/waitress. I had to ask 3 different servers for our checks the last time we came in. There seems to be a heavy focus on to-go orders so maybe I should try that instead since the food is very good.

In Columbus for work from Ontario, Canada for the week staying near Cazuelas Mexican Cantina and had a craving for Mexican. This place does not disappoint. Food was incredible! Ordered a Miami Vice Margarita and was also not disappointed! Service was fast and courteous, will definitely be back for more when we are here for work again!

Spent a few hours here while our kids were at a concert down the street. Great service! Mathias was awesome! We both got Chimichangas and they were delicious! I was very happy with all the vegetarian options and their willingness to modify ingredients! The plantains were so good! Great chips n salsa and queso! We would definitely return.

I ordered a quesadilla that said it came with tomatoes, sour cream and romaine lettuce mix and instead had green chili peppers, corn and some kind of radishes. When my spouse went to correct the order, he specifically mentioned no onions because of a food sensitivity, which I had mentioned the first time. I got the original ingredients listed on the menu, but the tomatoes had diced red onion, the lettuce was wilted and brown and smelled rotting. Disappointing and inedible.

I came here several times. It is a great Mexican restaurant with crazy vibe and a decent patio. But I am pretty sure that their best item is the free corn chips and salsa. Chips are crispy and salsa tastes perfectly sweet and little spicy. However, the other items, like tacos, fajitas, or stewed pot, are mediocre.

I got the menudo… it’ was kinda horrible.. The broth was good the meat was horrible. To chewy couldn’t eat most of it.. and mostly filled with fat and bones. The BEST I’ve ever had is from Casa Mezcal.

The food was beyond my expectations. For $20 or $25, you'll have a great meal. The margaritas were good too. We went on Sunday, it was crowded . Maybe we should try a different day. The decor was nice. They have a map of Mexico and a map of the State with their quarters (my favorite). The waitress was polite. Nice service, good food and good ambiance.

Mixed bag. Clean and festive atmosphere. Poor service. ( slow / mistake in order) Solid food overall. Chips were good but the salsa was very mild and not super taste. My burrito was good. The steak inside was done well and tender. The refried beans were good. If I lived in Columbus I would look for something better but still be willing to go back

Me & My wife visited recently , I’m not really open towards trying out new places .. But this place was awesome .. Their service was spectacular!! The food was the best Mexican I’ve ever had ! They served large portions , so you do get the bang for your Buck !! we left full , happy & satisfied .. Also with plenty of leftovers ..this place is well worth your money , time , n it’s also a pretty chill environment … Definitely will be back , multiple times 💯

Food was pretty good and portions are generous. There are more than average menu options which is a nice change.

Great food and great atmosphere Staff are friendly and attentive Highly recommend the super burrito Yum

I ordered a fajita quesadilla with queso on top and it was delicious. I also enjoyed their chunky salsa, very flavorful. The portion was huge and the price was acceptable.

Agave & Rye – Downtown Columbus 📍 479 N High St, Columbus, OH 43215 🗓️ Visited: July 12, 2025 (Second visit) ⭐ 4 out of 5 stars (Service boost) ⸻ 🪑 Seating Indoor only — booths, standard tables, and bar seating. 💰 Price per person Around $20–35 depending on how you order. Cocktails will tip you toward the higher end. ⏱️ Wait Time Walked in on a weekend with no reservation and was seated in about 10 minutes. 🔊 Noise Level Definitely on the louder side — music, conversation, and the decor all contribute to a high-energy space. 🅿️ Parking Metered street parking nearby, with garages within walking distance. ♿ Accessibility Wheelchair-accessible entrance and seating. 🥗 Dietary Options Vegetarian-friendly, with a few customizable options. Mocktails available. 👶🏾 Kid-Friendliness Yes — though the environment leans more toward adults and groups. ⸻ Experience Overview We didn’t plan to come here. It was a last-minute decision after circling a few spots with nothing landing. But it ended up being a solid choice — not perfect, but definitely memorable. ⸻ Atmosphere This place doesn’t ease you in. It’s all bold color, graffiti walls, chandeliers, and bubblegum-blowing animal portraits. It leans loud and dramatic — intentionally over-the-top, and not trying to hide it. It’s a place you come to notice, not blend in. ⸻ Service Ava was our server — confident, calm, and easy to work with. She didn’t try to upsell us or hover, but she knew her menu and made navigating choices easier. Pro tip: If you’re unsure on drinks, ask questions. She offered a few sips to help narrow it down, and it made a difference. ⸻ What We Ordered Hot & Juicy Margarita Watermelon purée, lime, Tajín rim, jalapeño – Balanced heat and sweetness, refreshing – Can run sweet, so ask for less syrup if needed Birria Tacos – Looked great but underdelivered on flavor – The consommé was oily and lacked depth – Not terrible, but didn’t stand out (especially if you’ve had great birria elsewhere) Street Corn (Off the Cob) – Served on the husk with cotija and chili – Good presentation, missing a bit of brightness – A squeeze of lime or pinch of salt would’ve helped Carne Asada Egg Rolls – Crisp, filled well, and good to share – The chipotle-BBQ sauce was a win – The ranch-style sauce felt random, but overall it worked as a shared bite ⸻ Weekly Specials Worth Knowing • Margarita Monday: Half-off house margs, $8 mocktails • Taco Tuesday: Half-off margs, $2.50 domestic cans • Whiskey Wednesday: $8 bourbon cocktails, $4 carne asada egg rolls • Happy Hour (M/W/Th/F, 3–6PM): Discounted drinks + tacos ⸻ Would I Go Back? Yes. This wasn’t a perfect meal, but the overall experience was enjoyable — especially for something unplanned. The food has highs and lows, but the drinks, service, and atmosphere pulled it together. If you’re looking for quiet, this probably isn’t the place. If you’re in the mood for something loud, colorful, and flexible with drink options? It does the job. ⸻ Helpful to know before you go: – Ask for light syrup in drinks if you’re sensitive to sweetness – The birria wasn’t their strongest dish – It’s a good spot for groups, but can be a lot if you’re looking for a laid-back vibe – The service was a standout ⸻ Hope this helps!

Stopped in for lunch and dinner with a large convention group and our server went above and beyond! The kitchen was slammed, but the food made it 100% worth the wait. I had the Epic Tacos—Bees Knees and Alderman—both big, flavorful, and delicious. The chips are massive (must be homemade!) and perfect with their Queso and Guac. Our group also loved the Pimento Cheese Dip. If you’re in Columbus, don’t miss this spot. Be patient—the food is worth it, and I’d come back again in a heartbeat.

The flavors were there the burrito didn’t look big but once I ate everything, I realized I was definitely full. I’ll definitely have to order more from this place. It was very delicious. I don’t eat bacon so I remove bacon from the burrito, but I can imagine it would’ve only added way more flavor 10 out of 10.

My husband and I wanted to try something new, so we gave Agave & Rye a shot—and we’re so glad we did! The atmosphere was really cool with a fun, vibrant vibe that made it feel like more than just dinner—it was an experience. The service was top-notch from the moment we walked in. Our server, Vina, was amazing—friendly, attentive, and super quick with our food. She checked in just the right amount, making sure we had everything we needed without hovering. The food? Delicious! Bold flavors, unique twists, and great portions. And the drinks—so good. We tried the Bee’s Knees Margarita and a watermelon-flavored one (can’t remember the name, but it was fantastic). Both were fresh, flavorful, and definitely something we’d order again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a place with great energy, amazing food and drinks, and even better service. We’ll absolutely be back!

The vibe was so cool here! (See pics for simple explanation)…Visiting from Pittsburgh for a tournament. Stopped here with my teammates for dinner and the tacos were amazing! The service from Vina was phenomenal! She was so polite and very knowledgeable of the menu. Helpful to the max!

Stopped in on Marg Monday with my sister who was in town and her friend. We ordered the following. Drinks Prickly pear margarita- 4/5, not strong tequila flavor Mango Margarita-4/5 delicious but a bit sweet. Hot lips (mocktail) 4/5- really good. Some zero proof spirits have an after taste so I subbed ginger beer. Food Plain Jane sub chicken-3.5/5- too many tomatoes (scraped of enough for another taco and still had enough) Snitch (2) 4.5/5- salt & vinegar chips were the perfect zing Alderman-4/5 surprisingly, good amount of spice Rooster- 4/5, good spice and filling. Plain Jane (no soft shell) 3/5- meat was seasoned but not flavorful and really oily. Chips & dip flight, I love their chips. Thick, crunchy, not overly salty. Guac- 4/5 good flavorful, but lot of fillers vs Avocado Salsa- 2, super sweet unusual for regular salsa. Desperately needed acid/citrus and/ or heat. Queso- 4, solid queso, but the cheese on top was a little weird. Overall, Agave has a great vibe between the ambience, playlist and service & Great specials (marg Monday, taco Tuesday, whiskey Wednesday, happy hour, etc.). They also have a great selection of whiskey and tequila selection. The food is not my favorite, and it's over the top... but for all of the other things I'd recommend it. Last note, the menu is chaotic. Very busy, no logical order/ flow.

When I dined in my first time everything was great. Service was wonderful & there was no long wait. I have visited this establishment about 5 times now & I have noticed a decline in service & food. I'm not sure if the last couple of times I chose to get take out if they were understaffed or what but it took at least 5 mins to be acknowledged & then told I was going to have to wait longer than the 30 mins I waited for my food to be ready. & yesterday when I went in it took almost 10 mins before someone finally asked me if I had been helped. I also noticed that the beef in my tacos were different every time I got them... last night might have been over cooked because it was dry, the time before that was ok, but the time before that they were extremely greasy & fatty. I only get the quesaberria tacos (sorry if I spelled it wrong). Also something to watch out for is the nachos. Check to see if they are overly salty...

I came here after work one day around 5pm. I spent $30 before tip. The food was good, the service was good and the restaurant was clean. I'll definitely be back!!!!

Excellent place to eat. Love the lunch buffet that they have. The only negative I can say about the place is the ground beef is seasoned a little too salty. Excellent food!!!

I came in on Saturday July5th and had 2 lime margaritas and was feeling reallllllllllll good. Next time I come down to Columbus I will be stopping by and also to try their buffet I had a EXCELLENT server but I lost my receipt. I had never had a margarita with a watermelon and pineapple on the side and it was GOOD

Nice Mexican place conveniently located at the end of the shopping plaza. Got a patio that's dog friendly and the staff is fantastic too! Very kind and nice folks. Food was fantastic. Great salsa and chips and the fajitas were huge. Had plenty of leftovers. Only complaint is that they didn't give you that many tortillas for the fajitas and if you ask for more it's almost 0.50 a tortilla. And these aren't very big ones either.

Our first time here and it was absolutely fantastic! Definitely will be back! The buffet is for lunch only but it’s so worth it!!!!!

El Rodeo Mexican Restaurant , on Steltzer Rd in Giant Eagle shopping center (between airport and Easton). Can't recommend enough! Everything full of flavor. Great salsa and thicker corn tortilla chips. Buffet during weekday lunch hours. Great patio with lots of tables with unbrellas. Bar. Fast, friendly service. Very clean and updated surroundings. Selfie wall for pics and a few tvs for watching sports. Pictures below: Ramon combo (ground beef enchilada, chicken enchilada, chicken flautas/taquitos, yummy thin-shelled taco and delish garlicky rice) with queso requested on enchiladas. Other plate is chicken chimichangas, rice and beans. Will def be back! Don't sleep on this one!

Nice Mexican place, I got the lunch buffet which was tasty and a quick. I liked the 32 ounces of iced tea and chips and salsa were good

Came here for a family birthday celebration & finding a parking spot a bit difficult cause it is on a busy street. Their chips & salsa are so good and some of the dippings.. our food came in fast and delicious. I had their EL PASTOR and was so good and tasty.. The server is so nice cause we were a party of 12 with kids, and she handled it very nicely. So far, we are satisfied and definitely coming back.

Was in the mood for Mexican food. Decided to make a trip to Lupita's. We went at a almost closing time which staff greeted us promptly & seated us and asked for drinks and appetizer. Food was good, had a little mishap with details from me to server to kitchen but manager made it right. Food was good next day as I used steak fajitas in my eggs this morning. Will be back again to try more of the menu. Margaritas we weak though.

Stopped in here after visiting the Conservatory for some lunch and margaritas. They have a lot of lunch specials and a big menu for all day dining. The chicken chimichanga hit the spot! We loved the salsas and bean dip they bring to the table. Delicious!

They are right when they say that you won’t leave here hungry. Portions are king size. My burrito was good to the last bite but the steak was a little chewy. Every one else raved about their food, even my picky granddaughter.

Cute little local place with great food. Steady customer flow even after 1pm. The gratis chips and salsa also comes with bean dip. Lunch menu was perfect sized portions. Very clean and friendly.

I had been wanting to go to Lupita’s for a while. Last night we finally got the chance to go, and they did NOT disappoint! It started when we pulled in to the parking lot. An older gentleman was pointing out a nice spot to park and then escorted us in to the patio. The staff was friendly and helpful, the food was all very delicious and the margaritas were fresh! Lupita’s is my new favorite Mexican restaurant! 😊👌

This place is great, you can tell it's made from the heart something is just so cozy about it, definitely will be back. Also margarita flights, enough said.

I got the steak burrito for lunch and it was really good. The ingredients tasted fresh and the burrito was packed. Their salsa is also really delicious and made right in front of you. Nice staff too!

Friendly and fast service. I got the quesadilla with chicken which was delicious, marinated chicken and the quesadilla was herb flour, so good! They told me they are getting shrimp and different fillings soon so definitely going back!

Ordered from taco truck tonight around 6:45pm, no one waiting in line order was ready in about 10 minutes. Drove home roughly 7 mins away to eat dinner and it was below average for Mexican food trucks around town. I ordered the 3 taco combo with chicken and carnitas tacos both meats were very dry. Rice and beans were pretty tasty but lukewarm at best. My fiancé got a burrito mojado with steak the green salsa and chose to add queso for an extra $2. The burrito was literally swimming in salsa and he was given chicken, he also didn’t get the queso he paid for either. Overall very poor experience and low quality food. I’d drive out East to eat La Rositas taco truck any-day over this.

Chicken taco was good but small. Definitely need four of them to fill up. The pork burrito was good but a bit bland and the hot sauce was not hot. Definitely yuppie place.

The most authentic Mexican food in Columbus, in my humble opinion. Get the chorizo or al pastor torta, you won’t regret it. The owner is also one the nicest people you will ever meet. He will strike up a conversation with you every time you come in. Also checkout his food truck right down the street! Felt safe and clean during this pandemic! Will be coming back for years to come.

It's been there since I started working in the area. Great food, was prepared when ordered. (Took about 5 minutes) everything was fresh. I'm a frequent customer.

Amazing place! The food is outstanding. The atmosphere is great! Spacious patio! The owner is very kind and outgoing. Juniors is a Columbus must!

11/08/2024 - First time visiting Barrio Tacos with one of my closest friends. The decor homages Mexican culture with Day of The Dead figures and images. There is a massive mural of Frida Kahlo (Roa, 2021) near the main entrance. There are table seating in one side of the restaurant and on the other a bar. I ordered as an appetizer their Blanco House Queso with chips, a Margarita for a cocktail, and three build your own tacos with chicken and the cilantro lime rice. Everything was savory and good. Nice and friendly staff. Parking out front. Cool atmosphere and crowd. Decent prices.

It was ok. I had two make my own tacos. I love a double decker situation, and there were great options on the menu. The chicken was good, but the beef was just ok. My side of rice was teeny tiny. My friend got a bowl, and it was so so small and not at all worth the up charge from a taco. Cocktails were good. I’m glad I checked this place out, but there are better tacos around.

This is a great place to grab food at. The customization of the tacos makes sure that you can have a multiple combinations and never have the same taco twice. Definitely give this place a try if you are in the area.

The food is delicious and the service is lovely. Meredith was our server and helped us with the ordering process and all our questions. I cannot stress enough how amazing Meredith was. The menu had more than enough options for personalizing our food everything we put in our mouths was amazing. Prices were very reasonable and the happy drinks were nice.

TACO TUESDAY must! Absolutely loved the atmosphere and food. The build your own taco was a fantastic experience, there are so many creations to concoct. Margaritas were delicious and half priced for happy hour. (Hours vary by location) Tacos came out quick and hot which complemented the house margarita perfectly. Service was a little slow but they were short staffed. I will definitely be back!

I’m typically completely against eating anywhere that serves food out of cardboard and plastic silverware. However, I’ll completely overlook it due to the food quality and healthy options available. Cauliflower rice, and skinny margaritas. Love the mango and pineapple 🍍 as well. Creative options.

We stopped for a light dinner. What a great spot! The restaurant was busy but we were seated right away. The patio was great, fresh air and yet you could still see the televisions to watch the different games that were on. I loved the drink list, many items for all to try. The food was tasty. My tacos were delicious. I had one that the restaurant had listed, and one I chose the toppings. If you're a taco person, this restaurant is a must.

This was my wife and I first time here, the service was fantastic! The waiter was outstanding and extremely nice and friendly. The food was amazing and so authentic!! I highly recommend giving this place a try. It's a hole in the wall type of place. The environment is definitely laid back and chill. The people that come here are definitely regulars because you can tell how they interacted with the workers here. They are open until 11:30 pm. Very quick service and just an overall great place. It's definitely worth trying out. You won't be disappointed.

It’s been a while since we visited Catrina from their previous location. This new location is great, decent restrooms and a nice sized dining area. The food is very authentic, it’s potentially my favorite in all of Columbus. There’s usually a new special of the day almost every time I’ve been. Worth checking out, the family who runs the place is very kind and welcoming. They also sell alcoholic drinks, try the Cantarito!

We dined here on a Sunday evening with our friends who had been there before. The first positive, they are open late on Sundays. The restaurant has a new owner, a lovely couple with a small number of staff to help. Taking this in consideration, their service is slow but is warm and excellent. They really care to ensure that you are feeling comfortable and are served the food the right way. One of the owner also runs the kitchen. So do consider their hard work and dedication in running the restaurant. The menu has a wide selection of authentic Mexican cuisine. This is a welcome change compared to run-the-mill rinse-and-repeat cheesy fatty flavorless food you could find in big-name local chains. My Son and I loved the Quesabirria tacos. They were flavorful, not greasy, and done with the right amount of filling served with a healthy side of consome. The Enchilada Verdes, both vegetarian and shrimp versions, were refreshing with light but tasty sauces. The presentation is simple and homely. They do not have a kids menu but were able to make a Chicken burrito. That was a hit with my 5-year-old. We loved the huge serving of horchata. It had just the right amount of sugar and was lighter to drink. Felt like a healthy version of the drink and we loved it. Like I said, be patient and you will be rewarded with good food. I hope they will speed up the service as they staff up over time.

My husband and I dined in around 4 PM, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. We waited over 15 minutes just for chips and salsa—only to be told they had run out. How does a Mexican restaurant run out of chips and salsa, especially that early in the evening? The service was slow throughout our visit, and when the food finally arrived, it was completely lacking in flavor. We were really looking forward to a good meal, but everything tasted bland and under-seasoned. Definitely not worth the wait or the price. We won’t be returning.

Great lunch experience. Got the birria tacos and they are some of the very best I've had. Definitely will be coming back with whole family. Also, they're Crew fans so it's an extra reason to support.

Our waiter was very helpful in his suggestions. The food was some of the best Mexican we have had in Columbus. We really enjoyed our time.

We recommend the Mexico City taco, and House Enchillada plate. The guacamole was so fresh and we appreciate a iced mugged foe our Modelos.

Loved this whole area. The shops were awesome and very sizeable. Great experience with a lot of variety. I noticed that it was well kept and so much to see. Parking was affordable and it seemed to have enough for the crowds.

​If you are looking for a place where the atmosphere is defined by unforgettable natural beauty, this is it. Come for the service, the comfort, or the food, but you will stay—and return—for the view. It’s an absolute must-see, and the pictures truly do not do it justice.

My husband and I visited here for our anniversary. It was a bit confusing and difficult to navigate for first time visitors, but we figured things out. We were glad to find a good mix of familiar stores and new ones. I needed to use a wheelchair and all were accessible, but a few were very cramped and hard to get around. Overall a great place to visit. We had a great time.

Great place to shop and eat. All the stores anyone could ask for and a ton of dining options. One of my favorite places!! Very clean and well maintained.

Dined in one of the casual restaurants here. Fast, excellent service from the time you place your order to the moment your order is delivered. They offer humongous cookies and other goodies to take home with you!

Had a wonderful dinner at RoofTop!! Awesome environment and atmosphere plus, super yummy food!! Fish was a hit!!

The Lego stores are cool to explore and there's a supper nice movie theater! Its definitely a really nice place to walk around and maybe find some food but they didnt have to many stores that weren't clothing related.

Definitely my favorite place in central Ohio to go see live music. Very broad beer selection, and always good service. The food's not bad but I rarely eat when I'm there. They have a good liquor selection, nice patios and outdoor space, ample TVs for game watching, and a ton of high tops and chairs available in the main room. Sound in the main concert hall is always solid and I've even seen people bring their kids shows like Sierra Hull. How Woodlands is able to afford to book the talent that they do is a mystery to me. Every year, they consistently have a killer line of national, regional and local bands and musicians. If you're here from out of town and you like good live music and good beverages, Woodlands Tavern should be your evening spot...

I was not expecting this!! The food is soooo good!! I would drive out of my way to get food here! Everyone is absolutely amazing!!! What a night! GREAT FOOD GREAT ATMOSPHERE GREAT MUSIC! Definitely a return is in order!!

User friendly venue for local and national acts; front room warm up bands, no cover, before ticketed show in the back. Check out the menu and drink options. Sweet patio scene as well.

Wings were delicious! Staff a little negligent on caring or consideration how our food and drinks were after serving. Pop/Soda was absolutely awful 😖 Lemonade was good though. Came for ROC/Grateful Dub concert with my kiddo.

It definitely has a neighborhood bar feeling to it. It was great to see the bartender talking to everyone she knew what drinks they all like!! They had a good happy hour going for beer. I love the vibes.

Stopped in for a quick bite, before a show at the Shottenstein Center. Was drawn to a wide tap selection, menu, and good reviews. Overall great experience. Ordered at the bar and food was brought to our patio table. Potato wedges were probably the best I’ve had. Would recommend to anyone, and stop in again.

Excellent little live venue! Food is excellent and beer options are plentiful. Really cool place! Parking is tough the first time around but once you figure it out its simple. Service can be kind of rough but I've seen their bar service under staffed during a busy show and the waits were short and nobody really was wanting for anything. They do a good job of taking care of people. When you have their attention they're very attentive. I love this place!

Las Tapias is the best birria you'll find in Columbus! I find myself coming multiple times a week and I've never been disappointed. I usually get a monster quesadilla and this time I was given a free tres leches cake for a long wait I had due to him being the only one working the restaurant, let me tell you this was one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. It was so good I had to come back a few days later and get me 2 more. I always receive amazing service here and the gentleman working is super kind and helpful. This place is easily my favorite restaurant in this area and they always deliver on the quality.

Don’t let the small menu fool you—the birria tacos were absolutely to die for! They were juicy, full of flavor, and filling!

It’s been awhile since I’ve met an owner/operator as kind as Fernando. Had stopped in to pick up an order but had never tried a birria taco before and figure it was about time. Not only can you see the passion in the food being made but you can taste it. The first bite, you’re unsure if you want to pause and savor it or immediately consume it sell. Before leaving I was able to try the horchata which I believe was a coconut flavor, absolutely delicious. 10/10 will be a new staple to go to when I’m on that part of town.

Visited Las Tapias Birria recently the food, service and atmosphere was a 10/10. Along with the new desserts from Ivy’s Enchanted Sweets. Many options!! The tres lechese strawberry cake was amazing. Highly recommend.

I’ve been there two days in a row. I got the monster quesadilla and my friend got the street Bria tacos the flavor and the quality of the food was amazing. The owner was very nice and helpful and even offer us a free dessert because it was our first time coming, I’m Definitely going to be a regular customer.

The most delish Ramen EVER!! My food is always hot, fresh and bursting with flavor. Obsessed

I had tried to place an order on the phone, and being as busy as they were they couldn't answer at the time. I figured id just go down anyways to order in person and wait. On my way there they called me back and took my order and when I arrived gave me a free dessert!! I highly recommend for their food and service.! Try the smorea tres leches!

Best taco truck in Columbus! Meats on tacos seasoned perfectly, and green sauce is my favorite. Highly recommend asada and pastor. Taco portions also better than all other trucks.

2024: They will be closed from Jan. 12 to some time in March! Love their tacos, first time I had it their meats were tender, the most recent time it was on the dry side. Beans and rice is good. Hot chocolate: not your typical hot chocolate! This one has corn in it! Very interesting texture

Excellent salsa, Fantastic Chile Relleno, and pretty good tacos make this the best overall taco truck I've found in the Columbus area (out of the dozens I've tried). I'm not a fan of their beans or rice though and the Mole was not as complex or full flavored as I had hoped. They recently added Gorditas which my friend absolutely loved! Any time I've found another taco truck that might do one thing better, there's always another aspect that's disappointing - I'll give an example: Los Agaves had slightly better Birria tacos (particularly their Consume is delicious!), but, Los Agaves salsa is CRAP compared to the fantastic Salsa Verde from Poblanita's. Also, I don't like how some taco places charge extra for Jalapeños! (Poblanita's does not).

I absolutely love this truck, and the people working here at the corner of Northridge and Indianola. Whether it be walking, biking, driving a motorcycle or four-wheeled-vehicle, get yourself here and try their food!! Its all made to order and authentic flavors. They'll know you by name if you are a regular - I certainly am. Leaving a positive review only now... but their great meals will have me coming back for years to come. Thank you for years of great service to Cville, La Poblanita!!

The food at La Poblanita is absolutely amazing—authentic, flavorful, and always satisfying. The staff is friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. However, the biggest issue is reliability. They often don’t follow their posted hours, which is frustrating when you make a trip expecting them to be open. I’d love to give a full five stars, but the lack of consistency really affects the overall experience. If they improve their scheduling or post real-time updates, they’d easily be one of the best food trucks around.

I was recommended this food truck by a family member, and I'm so glad I went! This is the best mexican food I've had in Columbus. We ordered chicken tamales and street tacos. Tamales were very delicious, and the street tacos were too. My favorite was the steak street taco topped with cilantro and onion. Truly delicious and most authentic. Fast and friendly service on top of this delicious food make this taco truck a place I will return to and highly recommend!

Delicious steak: awesome steak dinner! Best Mexican I've had in Columbus. Tender meat, flavorful and tasty sauces.

The food tasted good and the prices were good for the food, just be mindful about the drinks, a bottled sprite was 3.50$. Overall a good experience except for the price of the drink, which i didn't know until checkout.

The atmosphere is amazing! The decor is bright and festive and on point with several national heroes on display/depicted. The service was impeccable too! The food is delicious and reminds me of some of my abuela’s (grandma’s) cooking! The horchata was so good, I had two! We definitely be coming back for more so we can try the rest of the menu!

One of the best Monster burgers I have had! The sunny side egg made it that yoke soaks in the burger and makes it a messy bite but well worth it. Must try

I'm delighted with this restaurant. My favorites are the gorditas. I always have to work in different states, and when I come back to Ohio, I have to come and have my gorditas. 😍

Best meal at a Mexican restaurant I've had in a while. The tacos governador are some of the best tacos I've had

Very good ! Loved the Crazy Fries 🩷 was my first time had a great experience ! Will come back

So yummy! My friends recommended this place out so I wanted to try it out. Laura was our server and she is so kind and attentive:) 10/10 recommend.

Just visiting from Dayton and we’re so happy we tried this place! Their food was great— especially their Birria! And the serving portion was great considering the price! The service was also great, they were friendly and accommodating. If only I live near to this restaurant, I’ll probably be here often lol

My husband and I enjoyed our dinner at Martha’s Fusion Kitchen. The birria tacos were delicious! We also appreciated the vegan burrito. Tania was a very nice waitress and hostess.

Very pleasant and comfortable environment. The staff were great and the food was authentic. Very good food. It has that "it" you look for when you try new food and we're definitely adding Martha's Fusion to our list of regular visits. They also serve alcohol to help you unwind.

The food here always hits. We've been here several times or ordered takeout and everything we've had has been amazing. The quality is so fresh and authentic and even the takeout is as good as eating at the restaurant. Definitely check this place out!

I will definitely be back here. The veggie burrito was enough for two meals, super flavorful, and the veggies were sautéed perfectly. The service was quick and very friendly. Loved our server, she recommended a specific dish for each of us. Didn’t have any of the drinks, but they had a lot of pre-mixed, frozen drinks that looked amazing. A lot of locals came in for pick up or take out while we were there for 30+ minutes. 10/10 recommend!!

A guy I met recommended me this place and I usually don’t even go through with places people recommend me but I looked this place up and it looked so good! My boyfriend and I ordered and we just finished eating and this place is a must try!! He got the birria ramen and I got the birria tacos, 10/10 both. I also got a tamarind drink and I haven’t had one since I lived in Mexico and it tasted like delicious nostalgia.

Staff is incredibly friendly and food is fantastic! Carnitas tacos are out of this world! And of course so is the Birria ! 10/10 will absolutely return

The most authentic Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. We were the only ones speaking English. Some guy tried to sell us belts and wallets. Another guy started singing into a microphone. Food was just ok, nothing to complain about though

I was so happy the food was not bland. Authentic dishes. I could eat here every day. My chicken enchiladas with green sauce has so much flavor in the meat & sauce. Rice perfect, not dry, and the beans were good too. My husband was so happy they weren't watered down. That's usually the way we tell if the restaurant is good or not by how bad the beans are. Totally recommend! Great price.

Let me preface this by saying I am older and very white, but I like Mexican food. I went here with a friend, and was shocked how loud the music was. It appeared maybe there was a party or karaoke going on. Everyone seemed happy and the service was excellent, but it was much louder than I'm accustomed to. I got a steak and shrimp dish which was excellent. It's not what I'm familiar with, but aside from the music it was great. And I'd hate to see anyone not go just because I was there one night that they had loud music going on. The parking lot is also very small and getting in or out is a bit of a challenge with a larger vehicle. Would definitely eat here again, though.

I have been to this restaurant three times and the food is good, I always order fried tilapia and it is delicious. But the waitresses and most of the staff who work there have terrible service. They have a very rude attitude, I made a takeout order and they forgot to pack me the flan, then I come back for it, and the lady who served me very rudely gives it to me, when I always had a friendly attitude towards her. Honestly after today, I will not return to this restaurant. It doesn’t cost you anything to be kind to people.

Delicious all the way around Mexican spot. Ordered a barbacoa burrito and 3 different meat tacos. I've had a few taco trucks here in West Columbus, but this has to be the tastiest. Barbacoa had a good blend of fat, making it less chewy. Rice was a little under-seasoned. The fish taco was excellent, with a splash of lime and verde salsa, was on point. The chicken was over-seasoned but still delicious with the tortilla. Will return for more for sure. Only negative that I'll point out are the patrons I encountered were extremely rude and offensive. As I was trying to enter the place, there was a drunk couple laughing with other patrons inside, blocking the door - as I was eyeing him, waiting for him to move, he looked me up and down and wouldn’t move until moments later. Another patron sitting in the car waiting for his friend from inside was giving me a glaring squinted stare. Not sure what I did other than go pick up food, but seems like they were insinuating that I don't belong there. (I am Arabic and light skinned, maybe that's why?)

First time visiting this restaurant, didn’t have the best experience and I don’t think I will be returning. The restaurant didn’t have many customers and it took 10 minutes to bring us menus or have our drink order. Finally server came to our table and took our drink order another 10 minutes to deliver 2 cokes. Finally ordered our food and when we receive our food. We got what you see in the pics. Menudo had way too much grease and our shrimp empanadas were way to dip fried; and the queso fundido was the worst and overpriced.

We love coming here! The food is always delicious and the staff are amazing!

We love coming here - they make you feel like family. Good food, decent margaritas, lots of smiles. Recommend the chile rellenos or the mole!

I do not enjoy leaving a review that is less than four stars. But I did not enjoy the salsa that came out with the chips. My margarita was very syrupy, and nearly devoid of tequila. I was not especially hungry when I got there and thought I would try one of the appetizers for my meal. They looked great. And I have attached a picture with this review. But they were dry and not very flavorful. And they look like they had so much potential with tiny bits of pineapple and a few bits of cilantro. Overall, I can’t say anything that I had was bad, but everything left me wanting. That is not how you want a first time visit to go I am always excited about the potential of trying a new place.

Must give it a try! The service is excellent, and the food is incredible. Their salsa is different from most restaurants. It's more like sauce-based salsa with less tomato flavor. When they serve cheese dip, it comes with a bottle of hot sauce. The dip is good, but the hot sauce makes it even better. We had Mi Pueblo burritos, which contain three kinds of meat covered with three sauces, just like the Mexican flag color! The taste of meat, the flavor, and the color are excellent. I'll say that we never had such good burritos. We also had ceviche. It is fresh but more like bland food. I would recommend having it as a shared starter rather than a meal. Overall, it was a lovely experience. The only thing I must complain about is the time to download the menu. It took me seconds to download it, but my friend couldn't get it at all. If you don't want to waste time waiting, find the menu before you get there.

Stopped in here for lunch and was surprised that on a Saturday we were the only ones here, and we were alone for our entire meal. Staff was nice. It was freezing I was wearing a long sleeved shirt and a sweater and I was still cold. Personally I felt the music was too loud, making me grateful for slow songs. There was a good selection of salsas with the chips but the green one lacked flavor except for heat. Our meal were fairly good. Daughter's fries were really good. Quesadilla was good when you got a balanced bite. Most bites had too much meat which over powered the cheese. The steak burrito was overall but the steak was overcooked and there were too many beans. Might go back for ladies night, 64oz of beer for cheap. 😄

I don't know if our server was at the end of her shift or just kinda forgot about us, but we sat there for quite a while waiting for our check. Ended up asking for it so we could leave. The food was good. Very happy with all the dishes with chorizo in them.

It’s only been 20 mins since I picked up order. They put so much mayo that I actually threw up!! Not sure if it was spoiled or what. Didn’t finish it at all, I threw it away. No tortas or this place for me again. Mad I wasted my money.

Lacking staff clearly. Walked in and stood there for 5 mins before we see an employee was served below average tacos. They brought chips and salsa out with the meal. Then was charged 13 dollars over what the bill should've been. Had to ask for an itemized bill

A taste of So Cal street tacos in Grove City, OH. Simple, fresh menu, great service and great atmosphere. Cold beers and margaritas complete the experience. It’ may be in a strip mall…but it’s legit. Take some desert home…you won’t be disappointed.

Stopped in on a Sunday evening. We were promptly greeted and seated. The standard chips & salsa were bright to the table. We upgraded to the queso. To the point, the food: Taco Combo (wife) & Mexican Chicken Torta arrived at the table hot and visually pleasing. Our drinks: Peaches & Cream (a vodka drink) was drop-dead delicious! Please, try it if you can or want. We’ll definitely stop in here again to dine as it was a pleasant experience.

A beautiful restaurant with welcoming, friendly staff. My personal new favorite dish is the tostada with shrimp ceviche & avocado. It is truly delicious! You may hand to ask for it until it's officially on the new menu. And if you like peach drinks, the Peaches and Cream beverage is a must as well.

First time visiting and we loved it! Staff is attentive and amazingly friendly and food is more authentic than most local Mexican restaurants. We look forward to stopping in again and trying more items on their menu. Highly recommend Tacos and Beer to anyone looking for true Mexican flavor in Grove City!

The food was awesome! This is more authentic than most and if fantastic! The food tastes very good and was well worth it. Decent prices as well.

Hidden gem. Don't let the outside appearance deter you. Hot fresh Mexican food, far more than tacos and beer.

The food is amazing here, authentic Mexican food. It's delicious and so fresh. They have great deals and great food and drinks. The restuarant is so clean and well spaced out seating and comfortable atmosphere. The employees are prompt and so kind. There is a bar inside and to go desserts, flan and the le Leche cake is to die for, delicious.

Delicious fresh and filling 🙃 got AJS combo. Tried with red and green sauce. One for heat one for flavor. Alternating bites lol. Both delicious. The auju is 🤌🏻. Easy to park. Have to order in the rain tho. Food truck parked beside a place. Gives u a vibrator for when it's done. Took it home let it sit a few minutes and it was still crispy hot and delicious. Tasted more fresh than other places that recently got their truck business into full establishments in the area. Much much more fresh. Definitely be back for other items.

Fast, easy and delicious. If you like flour tortillas this is solid. But it would be much better if they used corn tortillas.

Augustine & Christian do a great job!!! They are very friendly and love Jesus too!!! Yummy yummy food at a great price!!!

Best tacos in Columbus Shrimp were our fav. Perfectly grilled corn based tortilla, perfectly balanced with sweet grilled shrimp, and creamy chipotle sauce. Top off with an avocado and cut with lime, cilantro and cheese. A sublime 3 bite extravaganza that will leave your mouth watering for more. Birra also on point! Def get with consume. Enjoy you lucky first timers Atmosphere: sits next to a coffee shop, so seating retail limited to maybe 15-20 tops. Plenty of easy parking space though. We came when a blue grass band was playing outdoors. Take that for a vibe

Love this place. I’ve had the Birria Tacos, Street Tacos, and Tostadas. Their food is always hot, and ingredients are fresh tasting. Customer service is awesome. The wait can be a little long on some days but only because they are pretty popular.

The most delicious birria I've ever had! Nice and crispy even after the drive home! And the Esquite de Birria was fantastic as well!

Mouthwatering. Great portions. Great price. Fast. Delicious. Cute space with picnic seating and murals. Going back for sure.

Felt pretty disappointed with the al pastor torta I ordered. I was very excited to finally find a place with a wide variety of tortas, but for $13 I was disappointed to receive a sandwich that mainly bread with some meat and a single slice of avocado. The flavor of the meat was good with I would love to have for a full sandwich, but with what I was giving I don't believe it was justified the cost.

Very over priced. 5 tacos for $20 is insane. No flavor on the chicken or steak. Little portions .

The food is fantastically delicious but overpriced. Great conversation, quick service, a clean and simple place to sit… just $15 for a small quesadilla seems steep for a food truck that doesn’t use gas to get around… That or I’m getting old and stingy.

Really good Al pastor, the salsa adds a lot as well. $2.50 per taco is a great price and the service was lightning fast. I think I found my new neighborhood taco spot

Great stuff! Very busy at lunchtime and I can see why. The food is excellent. Definitely will be back to try more items on their menu. ☆☆☆☆☆

Great authentic Mexican food. Loved the tacos! EDIT 8/23/2018 Just got tacos there again recently. After having gone to Mexico and other Mexican restaurants, I don't love the tacos anymore. Their corn tortillas don't taste great and the meat inside is subpar. Better choices: iTacos on Karl Rd, or Charritos on Reed.

This is one of my favorite hidden gems of Columbus. This pink graffiti covered truck can be awfully intimidating upon first approach, especially when most of the menu is written in Spanish, but taking a chance in this was one of the best things I've done. The staff is very friendly, even inside the Mexican mart next door. The food is all authentic and made to order. My personal favorites are the chips and guac and the tamales. The tamales are slightly spicy but are some of the best I've ever had. The chips and guac are fresh and chunks, just the way they should be. On top of all that the prices for tacos are relatively inexpensive, only about $2 for a taco. If you haven't tried this place you should at least give it a shot.

I got several different styles of tacos from this uniquely designed food trailer. All were outstanding. The tortillas were corn and definitely nothing like you can find in this area. Be adventurous and try both the Lengua (beef tongue) and the Cabeza (Beef head) you will not regret it.

FRIENDLY FAST AND AWESOME. GREAT food. The burrito was amazing. The Street corn was authentic. And this strawberry shake thing is sooooo refreshing. Best in the city .

I have ordered from here multiple times. All the food has been amazing. I buy nachos from other places every Sunday after church. Well, I challenged Daniel at Taco D Kache to make me the best nachos ever made. Well, I was amazed at the creation he provided me. These nachos are not just Nachos, they are Nachos from heaven. So I have named them Nachos del Cielo. My Sunday nachos will now be from here.

Amazing. Perfect. Wonderful. Fantastic. Great. Best experience. Great people mind blowingly good food over all 10/10.

maybe you need to eat at the location. ordered via Uber Eats. it was very expensive and everything was cold and packaged poorly. like to the point that I had to place togo containers in the sink, was did water and wipe them down. the cheese and meat dip was nothing but oil. everything was cold and not so tasty. they also put different food items in one container. maybe common with them, but was either as they were separate meals.

I don't usually do tacos this review is food based only the chicken really didn't have any flavor tasted like it was just cooked up the sauce however was great but the sauce shouldn't have all the flavor of the dish in my opinion

Truly enjoyed the food here. Lots of options. Will definitely be back
