We ordered 2 fajitas with no peppers, kids nachos (comes with side of rice and beans), and asked for extra shells to go. We get home and we only have 1 fajita WITH peppers and nachos NO side of rice and beans and no extra shells. Went back to get the rest and specified no peppers and asked for the extra shells again. Once again we got our fajita WITH peppers, no shells, no side of rice and beans. It was ridiculous!! Decided to pick out the peppers and eat it as is HOWEVER as we are picking out the peppers we find TWO lovely hairs mixed in!!! GROSS!! we will not be eating there again! Cant even comment on whether the food is good or not because I lost my appetite.

The most authentic Mexican food we have had in Cincinnati. The chef is from Michuacan and it shines through in the flavor of the dishes. The poblano relleno is spot on. The burritos are as authentic as you can get - no rice fillers just the real fillings. The shrimp burrito was identical to what we would get I San Diego and if you want a margarita that isnt too sweet, get the skinny: just juice, Gran Marnier, and tequila - no artificial sweeteners. Sit in the bar or outside. Highly recommend.

I feel very proud about this place all my friends from college always want to go eat there the second we get back home, its our go to. Food is great and you just get that "local feel" as clients and staff are always interacting with each other. Ive been working there durning breaks from college and its very pleasing to see a locally owned family business serve the community and its people through its services and employment as well !

Best fish tacos in Cincinnati - and I lived in California so that is saying a lot. Best in the summer when you can sit outside. Staff is very friendly and lunch specials are good. Atmosphere is a little Spartan but new and clean and good enough. If you are in Mason dont miss this Mexican restaurant.

Not bad for Americanized Mexican food...not too much original dishes...seems that all the Mexican food dives in this area have the same menus...all in all, good for what it is...does have a nice patio and will get busy...on a happening night, be ready to have long delays between staff visits.

Love this place. Best Mexican restaurant my girlfriend and I have found in southern ohio so far since the new year. We go here every Monday for margaritas and pollo loco. Cheesy chicken and rice with chorizo. Margaritas are fairly priced for the portion and potency of the drink.

I would definitely return to this location based on the food and beer specials. $1.99 for a Blue Moon cant be beat for lunch. The chalupa and burrito that I ordered were both generous portions, and the queso was great. Service was slightly below average, as was the atmosphere.

The staff is always friendly, our orders are correct and for a family of five we feel like we get a lot of great food for our money. Their menu is huge, you can try something new every visit and not be disappointed.

Staff are like family. Theyve had the same staff since they opened. Food is fresh and taste. Margaritas are the best!! Get the skinny margaritas for nothing but fresh squeezed juice and tequila. Yummy!!

My new fav place to eat Mason! The food is very good and the portions are a good size, and the pricing is not too bad. Real authentic Mexican food, definitely not Chipotle or Moes! LOL

Not great vegetarian options - very small portions. About half a plate of Mexican rice, small enchilada (it was hard and fell apart), and a small burrito in a hard shell.

Just happened into the place while passing thru the Cincy area. Food and service was very good, I wouldnt hesitate to stop in again when Im in the area.

The food is about the same as any other good Mexican restaurant, but the happy hour prices are stupid good. Like two bucks for a 16oz draft beer.

Better than your average shake n bake Mexican restaurant. It is still not great, but it provides a decent dining experience for the price.
