Cielito Lindo

It was such a delicious experience! The Chile con Queso was terrific, the best appetizer! Original Mexican taste and their staff very friendly, excellent Customer Service! You have to try the Tres Leches dessert; it's just delectable.

I have had so so many Tex mex and Mexican food here since moving to Texas. The wonderful thing about this place, is how small it is. Friendly and inviting, clean, bathrooms clean, and our server Nelly, was absolutely adorable. And even though there was somewhat of a language barrier, she got it all correct. She was sweet and attentive. Chips were warm and crispy, and the chicken fajita tacos, OMG!! To die for with that fresh cilantro!!! Yum!!! Can’t wait to go back when the cravings hit again!! Thank you for a great afternoon meal with by family.

We love cielito lindo, it is a hidden gem. The food is amazing and the plates are very well served. The staff is super friendly and the service is pretty quick. The restaurant is simple and cozy, but we are there for the food. There is so many good food options it's hard to choose!

21 Sept 2021 From the dark, heavy handmade wooden tables and chairs to the pastel walls with distressed chair rail trim and intricate stencils the feeling of a REAL Mexican cafe’ is palpable.

The food seems to match, with a pragmatic nod to the Tex-Mex expectations of those living around these parts.

The salsa served with the chips had a smokey, chile flavor. The mole was (correctly) not sweet and absolutely delightful. But the best was the Cochinita Pibil recommended by the waitress. Pork roast roasted in a banana leaf. Mmmmm-mmmmm.

Leave metro Austin for a quick trip south of the border just my stepping inside.

It’ll be delicious.
