Contemporary Mexican
Energy, creativity, and the desire for a really great taco inspired the Nada concept. Downtown Cincinnati needed a place to go, revive, and relax after the busy pace of the metropolitan work scene. Since 2007, Nada has been delighting guests with craveable twists on the classics and border-blurring dishes inspired by food from around the globe. Nada has expanded to Columbus, Indianapolis, Nashville, and their first east coast installment in North Bethesda, MD. Each location is integrated into the local community and focuses on delivering an approachable, casual Mexican experience in a beautiful space. Snag guacamole and salsa to share, and dig in to punched-up tacos, Nada is all about great food and good times with amigos.

    Order lots of things and share with table! Tacos are great, of course, but check out appetizers like Brussels sprouts and jalapeño cornbread.

    There are a lot of great Mexican restaurants in Cincinnati. Nada's food was good, but it was expensive for two small tacos and a side. That wouldn't have been an issue if the atmosphere had been stellar, but the upstairs dining room was very loud.

    Nice atmosphere and great for a group. Food was ok. The Queso dip was the best part of the meal and the guacamole was very tiny. Seriously the portion size was maybe half an avocado. Prices for portion size was ridiculous. The carne asada tacos were not good. They were so over seasoned and salty. I was really looking forward to eating here but left disappointed.

    We celebrated our sons 21st birthday and the service was fabulous. They went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and always had what we needed at the ready. Katie was an especially good server and we enjoyed the party. We even brought our own birthday cake and Katie augmented it with fresh warm churros and serving utensils. Thanks.

    Food was great. Sat in second level, service was not great at all. Ordered drinks took around 15-17 min to get drinks. Took over 30 min for queso. Food was good just service was not up to par.

    Nada absolutely went above and beyond. We did not specify a special occasion when making our reservation, but the waiter made a point to ask when we were seated. We were celebrating our last going out before our first baby comes (due in 3 weeks) with some of our closest friends. Food was awesome, never had to ask for a water refill, and the waiter was very attentive! To help celebrate, they brought us some churros for dessert (which were amazing, melt in your mouth). Just when we think the celebration is over and we are wrapping up paying, when the waiter brought back the checks/cards, he also brings what looks like a to go box. Inside the box were 3 adorable onesies for our little, with cute brand related phrases: “taco bout cute”, “fiesta then siesta”, and “born to guac”. Staff just absolutely went above and beyond what we would have expected. We will be back (once we are able to get out of the house that is)!

    A little too noisy and busy for my taste. Kinda too cramped. But a very cool spot for a younger crowd. It may just have been the time we went and that is why it was so ramped and noisy. Homemade chips were very good. Lots of people like overly spicey, but it isn’t my favorite. Many of the dishes had that spice factor. This place has very energetic nichey Mexican food-I am more into California everyday laid back style. Waitstaff were very pleasant and attentive.
