I ordered the salmon bowl and I must say I am not disappointed at all… Fish is great very flavorful I will order again. I also ordered tres leche cake, Chocolate flan, 1 frozen margaritas strawberry and 1 mango with taquila both are delicious, I also ordered nachos. Everything was & is delicious. My new favorite Mexican restaurant….

Chipotle setup, but real and 10 times better ingredients and taste. You can smell the delicious food pulling into Van Aken. The employees do a good job and a great place to go for lunch. Massive portions. They don’t skimp.

I am incredibly upset to be leaving a bad review for Cilantro Taqueria when I previously sang their praises to everyone. I used to tell people not to bother with Chipotle,.

We ordered build-your-own taco bar for a party at our home. The food was abundant and delicious, delivery was right on time and very courteous, and the catering manager, Kimberly, was very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend!

Im such a fan of this restaurant. I love it, but my most recent visit; i ordered a chicken quesadilla online for pick up order and a few other things. My surf and turf taco was missing cheese (its listed on the receipt, its a no show to the party) I’m Not sure if theres a such thing as an open quesadilla, but thats what i received. I opened the container it came in and it literally looks like a bowl with the tort inside . Typically, sauces are on the side with quesadillas. Here you can clearly see its inside what seems to be an “open faced quesadilla” ♀️ a tad bit confused here

I always order the fajitas and mexican street corn and I am never disappointed!!! You can even order online and they get the order right. You definitely get full and have leftovers for the next day.

My wife and I came to this taqueria and the hospitality was terrible. The server at the front counter would not assist us in any way when we asked questions. For example my wife asked what goes on the nachos and he replied vaguely anything you like. So my wife being discourage asked for 3 tacos instead. She only got 2 of the 3 she ordered. I also asked for three tacos with rice and beans on the side the cook put both items in tacos. I asked for fresh jalapeños and a different cook questioned me and then rolled his eyes at me because I asked for something that was not presently stocked on his line, so he cut 3/4in slices and just threw them on with out any care that I was watching. On top of that we ordered chicken fingers for my daughter and they came out burned.

If I desired a Mexican-style version of Chipotle, I would have gone there instead. Unfortunately, my experience here was quite underwhelming. Although I seldom give negative reviews of any establishment, I always try to find something positive. However, this was merely cafeteria-style Mexican food with a hint of authenticity, not compelling enough to warrant a visit. The ambiance was uninviting, and the greeting felt like that of a hospital worker calling out the next patient. This place had the potential to be exceptional, but instead of focusing on the customers’ actual dining experience and creating a great takeout segment, it fell short.

I go often to Cilantro Taqueria but my last experience with this restaurant was upsetting. I attended the restaurant with my two children. I ordered our meal which included a kids meal and a small drink. I also asked for two water cups. I know the two single water cups is equivalent to the amount of the small soft drink. I spilt the beverage between the two children since this restaurant does not carry a “kids” drink. I only consume water. As my daughter was filling up her clear cup, an employee walked past and noticed that she was filling the water cup with a juice product. I can understand why he may of assumed that she was “stealing a beverage”. As she was pouring her drink, the male extended his arm in attempt to stop her but he stopped himself when he saw me. Again, he did not say anything but smiled. As I walked to the counter, to request spoons, the man at register seemed annoyed with this request. I ignored it because I know he was busy and he had to leave the counter to grab me a spoon. As he grabbed the spoons for me, he verbalized ” m’am the drinks are not free”. I hesitated to respond because I wasn’t sure why he was making that comment being that he was the one that calculated my meal at the register which included the drink. Obviously, if I purchased a drink from you, I know that the beverages were not free. The fact that he made an assumption was annoying but I understand most people aren’t critical thinkers but he didn’t even apologize for the assumptions. I understand there is a barrier with the language but I was so offended he accused me of stealing. I think they need an in-service on how to address people appropriately and making an accusation is offensive. I have spent my money here and as i try to enjoy my food, i get accused of stealing. It made the experience uncomfortable for me.
