I think I found my New Mexican food spot. FINALLY! Finally a good quality Carne Asada. Their guac is really good. The portions are really well. Rice is really good and the service was great. Very nice people in there. I will definitely be back to try more entrées

I somehow wrote too many words in my last review giving praise to this "hidden treasure" and accidentally x'd out this pic of the steak fajitas. See my last review and add this to it. A pic is worth 1000 words, Salivate! The bathrooms are charming, sweet and sano. They serve beer. I don't know if they serve margaritas. You will feel loved, well taken care of, and deeply satisfied. It's pure yum.

This is my go-to local spot when I'm craving shrimp fajitas. The staff is always friendly and the food is always tasty.

My order was wrong TWICE, the tortilla was extremely dry, hard and cracking. Service was subpar. Had to ask multiple times when I needed a refill and asked for salsa (which I never did get). They are WAY over priced for the quality of food they are producing. MY friend had the shrimp cocktail and said was ok. They are very rude and were irritated that I sent my food back because the order was wrong. I noticed the manager checking our ticket to see if I had really ordered what I stated. I don't understand how they get such good reviews. The food is cold and bland and service is terrible. It's unfortunate as they are very close to our home.
Went to this restaurant for the first time today. Overpriced for marginal food. The salsa tasted like a marinara. There was no seasoning on the food. Very bland food. Uninteresting with little to no spiciness. Not a repeat.

The food is so good at Cielito Lindo, I sometimes think about applying for a job there, just so they could teach me how to cook their recipes. Then I come to my senses. Mexican and Italian food are my favorites, and Cielito Lindo, is my favorite Mexican Restaurant. Their staff is friendly, the restaurant is always clean. Their servings are also generous. They make their salsa fresh. I hate grocery store salsa. If all you need is salsa, you can buy some from them.During covid, they added outdoor seating. The one good thing that came out of Covid. I highly recommend them.Parking: They are in a strip mall by Albertson's in Orcutt. We live in a small town. Even when there are a lot of cars, there is a place to park fairly close by. Most of the time, I can find a place almost directly in front of the door.
Went for tacos and shared a few different ones. All were very tasty. Service was ok, seemed like they were fairly busy. A bit over priced for street tacos.
The food is really great.
