Cielito Lindo-Denison

So delicious!! From the chips and salsa to the entree... everything was so good! I ordered the Mole Chicken Enchiladas. The chicken was tender and well seasoned and the Mole sauce was perfect! Topped with a few chopped onions and queso Fresca... its was just right! This is an awesome place for some really good authentic Mexican food!
Highly recommend!!

DECENT STREET FOOOOOD!!! We thought we'd have to go back to Vegas or even Los Angeles to get some decent tacos SO HAPPY for real tacos!! I haven't tried their platters (look pretty good tho) so I can't pass judgment there but the tacos are bomb. As I'm starved for good Street food I'm bubbling with happy with this place, but all that happy aside here's the reality: fresh yummy awesome isn't cheap (small taco with onion cilantro a little jalapeno served with double white corn tortillas and a mild Verde/tomatillo salsa on the side)
Props for having Mexican soda and agua fresca but the super sweet horchata was from concentrate. That said it was pretty dang awesome to put all that in my delighted face. Thank you Jesus, you really do love this old ex foodie hipster.

First time in. I wanted to try the street tacos. Pleasantly surprised at how good they were. Lesson learned to not judge a book by it's cover. I'll definitely be a repeat customer 🙂

Don't expect Tex mex guac. Theirs is Oaxaca style. Other than that you better not tell too many folks about this place, it's already getting full business almost every day for the small location. This restaurant will feed you a fantastic meal for 6 bucks or you can feel like you ate at your gourmet Abuela's for 10. Seriously, there is a saint of Mexican food in the kitchen. Too many choices to list. The ingredients are great and fresh, and the cooking is wonderful. Here's a picture of the to go beef nachos I snuck back to my little barn and chowed down. (Note the beef is steak meat. Who else does that?) Don't be in a hurry when you come here. Greatness takes some time. Cielito Lindo, Aiyiiii! Viva Tejas!

We are relatively new to Denison so this was our first time here. The street tacos were so good! The tamales I wish I had gotten more of they were not stingy at all with the meat. My husband even loved it (he will only eat his mother's tamales) but he really liked theirs! Will be back for sure

This place kinda ruined other restraunts for me. I never knew enchiladas could be so good!

Love this place! Taco Tuesdays are the best. Carnitas with all the fixins..

I'm very picky with Mexican food and dislike most of the "Mexican" Restaurants near here. The food here was really good and more authentic. The salsa was spicy and delicious. I would definitely recommend. The waitress was super sweet as well!

The food was absolutely amazing. One of the most enjoyable Mexican dishes I've had in a while this side of the border. Fair warning ⚠ when it says spicy, they mean spicy. I love spicy food. Small language barrier but definitely manageable and worth it. Very friendly staff. Had an excellent experience. Camarones A La Diablo was my dish and the serving was huge. Well worth the money.

Driving thru town and wanted authentic and fresh food. Wow. Amazing. The breakfast is superb!

Food reminded us of our time in Mazatlan and Bucerias. Wonderful staff. The cooks really care about the food they prepare. Lots of love in it.

Very good value. Green and red sauce are tasty, taco's very good and food is fresh. If you go once, you will want to go back. Easy to leave a good tip here.

First time here. I got the Cielito Lindo quesadilla, and goodness it was good! Authentic taste, not some Texmex quesadilla. Great/prompt service.
I will be back!

Great street tacos, tamales and horchata. The salsa Verde is home made and absolutely perfectly prepared. I'm coming back for fajitas and breakfast on another day. Very fresh and authentic.

Looking for a hole-in-the-wall Mexican place to eat on a long drive. Stopped here. Food was delicious. Homemade and so tasty. Guacamole, queso, and salsas were top shelf. We will try to stop back in on our next road trip.

The four tamales I got on "Tamale Wednesday (two chicken/two pork) were as good as any I've ever had in my 15 years traveling the American West and the salsa Verde was hands-down THE best.

The food was amazing, and you get a lot for the price will be going back love the Shrimp cocktail AMAZING!!!!!!

Extremely authentic and reasonably priced. Need I say more? Well ok then. Best pork tamale I’ve ever had and taco Tuesday at this place is phenomenal. Need I say more? Well ok then. It’s fantastic food at a fantastic price. Eat here. Do it. Now!

Decided to get off the beaten path while traveling. Small off the highway place a bit, take the time! Food is handmade. We had a Chix burrito, taco plate, tamales, soup, and Leches cake (the best!) Not fancy but delicious...we will go back when passing by! Enjoy!

Have ordered the Tacos many times. If you're looking for a good street taco with good old fashioned onion and cilantro this is your place. The sauces are tasty as well.
