Cielito Lindo is one of the best local Mexican restaurants. Food is great. In particular, love the mole sauce and the veggie nachos. Its BYOB, but they do offer a pitcher of margarita mix that you can bring tequila for.

Not many choices for kids, which is on us. Food was ok, not great. It’s byob and they charge $6 for sour Margherita mix/juice that is not good. I would pay $6 for a margarita with actual alcohol. The corn was awesome, the plantains were good but the tacos were average to sub par. Our kids like the horchata and is probably the only thing we would go back for.

Cielito Lindo is our "go to" place for Mexican Cuisine in central Jersey. The food is fantastic, the value is great, and the service is always excellent (we are always pleased to have Lorena serve us!). You can't go wrong at this wonderful family run restaurant!

Overall food was good. But unfortunately it appears they only had two people working here. Those two people seemed a bit confused and service was extremely slow. Took almost 45 minutes to bring our entrées. And then 20 minutes later they brought out my soup along with other sides. They were very pleasant and we’re trying their best and without being too harsh their past was not all that well. They look like they had been doing it a while but seemed very confused and overwhelmed at the same time. Don’t know if I just caught them on a bad night but not so sure I will be returning here.

We were excited to try this place and unfortunately were extremely disappointed. Ordered fajitas - it doesn’t come with tortillas - you have to ask. They came and were corn tortillas. Also didn’t come with sour cream, guacamole or pico. Asked for those sides and was charged extra for all 3. The chicken was thin and hard and dry. The cost definitely wasn’t worth any meal we ordered. Not likely to return and will not recommend.
