It was our first time at Cielito Lindo on Olvera Street, which was fantastic! We tried the two taquitos special with avocado sauce, which was delicious. The warm champurrado drink was a treat. We must have come on a non-busy day to find a short, quick-moving line. A must-try! 🥑🍫
First timer. Amazing food. Good prices. Worth any waiting in the line. Truly a gem of a mom & pop type eatery. Limited seating, but I'd stand and eat this food no problem. Don't pass this up.
It is a classic place of an evening visit .
If you are downtown, have a walk around it opens late until 7 pm. Great atmosphere and fair price.
Mexican experience. Came here on a non busy day. Was fortunate. Limited spaces so I ate at the side of the walkway. Plays part of the Mexican experience surrounded by Mexican stores and restaurants.
Great classic rolled taquitos. Had mine with the green avocado sauce. Would go again. Line was about a 5-10 minute wait.
This place is apparently a "classic". There was a long line at 1pm to get food! There are plenty of tables/chairs to sit there and eat, and, yes, the food is very good.
Food was reasonably priced and very Delicious. Long lines, but moved very quickly. The worst part is trying to find parking in the area.
Sooooo authentically delicious and homemade taste 👅 ❤️ I love the spicy cheese tamale. Staff was super friendly too.
These taquitos are amazing. Remind me a tiny bit of El Paso’s chicos tacos. Ordered 2 just to try them and back in line for more. Get the taquitos that have rice and beans. The rice is really good. The champúrado was amazing and hot.
Great experience and food!
Classic and a must when in DTLA, Olvera Street has many places to choose from, but this is always my go-to. The prices are affordable, they fry the taquitos fresh, and the more green sauce, the better. This is a historic spot with limited seating, but it doesn't matter because the local market makes you want to walk around while eating.
