I went here recently for an end of year celebration with about 15 other people. We were seated immediately which was great and we didn't have to worry about finding room for all of us. Thankfully they had a table large enough to fit all of us together. I got a fajita quesadilla loaded with onions and peppers. It was delicious. It came out super hot and fresh and it was hard not to eat it fast. It was very messy but that's to be expected. The service was nice, although the time in between taking our drink orders and food orders was a little long for my liking. They were accommodating with us when we gave our speeches for the group, and even offered us a microphone to us. While it was a nice gesture, they were persistent that we should use it after we told them we did not want to a few times. But I think the food outshined everything else and might be one of the best Mexican foods I have tried in the Cincinnati area. read more

We went here Saturday night and really were surprised by how affordable and decent the food was. Our server was super nice, bringing us their homemade hot sauce and new frosted glasses. The beef tacos and the chorizo enchiladas were both really good. The atmosphere is average, don't look at the ceiling (which is probably the landlord's fault, not theirs). We'll be back. read more

This place remains our go to Mexican choice. The staff know us and always great us with a smile and a welcome. Miguel and crew make Cancun the best place for Americanized Mexican in town. Skip the pretense and false promises of "Authentic" and have some great food made by real Central Americans, not Chad from Cincy State read more

I"ve tried this location 2 times and both times the food wasn't what the menu said it would be. The first time, I ordered the Hot & Spicy Burrito, Nothing hot at all and the only spice you can taste is cumin. The second time, I asked the server what is Molcajete sauce? He said "it's a hot spicy sauce", I said "I'll have the Carne Azteca" This is the menu description: Carne Azteca Carne asada topped with molcajete sauce and queso fundido. Served with rice, beans and tortillas. molcajete sauce = a hot spicy sauce queso fundido = a white cheese sauce The Carne Azteca that I received was covered with salsa verde (Green Sauce) and topped with a sprinkle of shredded white cheese. Nothing hot, nothing spicy and no cheese sauce but I do like Salsa verde, so I ate it but I wouldn't go there again. Jack up the prices, make the food sound good on the menu, then make it as cheep as you can and hope nobody notices. That is what you are going to get here ! read more

I would like to update my review. The last time I went to Cancun is when they were located near the Quality Inn (which is now closed). I didn't like the experience I went the last time but thought I would give them one more try. We went on a early Friday evening and shocked that they were super packed at 5:30 PM. The inside was not as huge as their last location but it's still decent. It was a little stuffy but tolerable. Our server was attentive and friendly. Got our drink orders right away. We got the gold top shelf margaritas. Which was excellent BTW. Then a few minutes later we ordered our dinner. I got the 3 Hard shell beef tacos and my Mr. got the Burrito Roqueta. Even though they were super busy, we got our meals in a timely manner. With our meals we ordered another round of Margaritas since they were really good. Loved our dinners. My Mr was impressed with his as well. My only con with the place is that the music was very loud that the customers had to raise their voice to hear themselves. If they turned it down just a notch it wouldn't be as noisy. Other than that, great Mexican joint and I'm glad we gave them another try. I can see ourselves coming back. read more

Sometimes, you just want good Mexican food within a short driving distance. My go-to is typically El Jinete, but my lady suggested stopping by here one day, and I was up for it. Overall, I'm glad we went, because the experience was pretty good... If only the music wasn't so loud. We stopped by around 5:30pm, and it was already pretty busy, both for dine in and carry out. Made sense since we were just in time for happy hour. Our server, Salvador, was definitely friendly and very attentive. We started with two gold top shelf margaritas and the usual chips and salsa. All were pretty solid and tasty. As for our meals, my lady ordered three crunchy ground beef tacos, while I went for the burrito roqueta (and another round of margaritas). The wait wasn't long at all, even though it was busy, and we really enjoyed all our food. Still, it was a bit tough for us to talk to each other because the music was loud. It was easier when there was a break between songs. All in all, our experience here was very good, though I'd prefer if the music were turned down a notch (especially during the curious latin cover of Snow's "Informer"). Would I go back? Likely, but maybe only if I'm too lazy to drive to El Jinete again. read more

awful experience, used to be one of our favorite spots. last time ate there had been mourning the loss of our child. the server decided to charge us nearly $90 for two entrees and 2 drinks. Since they had taken it upon themselves to include a tip into the bill I saw no reason to contribute additiona. They filled in an additional $60 on the tip line.. Couldnt believe it, when I called the manager he said I could come talk to him in person about it, that his staff "does do this" yet he couldn't tell me which two entrees & two drinks equated to $90.. bank wouldn't Over turn it, said that the scribbles at the bottom indicated I "signed" it. These people are criminala, frankly honestly the food got worse and worse every tIme we went in there. I'll never step foot in this Place again and would strongly advise against eating here when there are so many other option. Reap what we sow though, hope it was worth it. read more

Cancun SUCKS! Norwood is DUMP and this place is in the CENTER of it! I had a "Monster" Strawberry marg... I proceeded to black out... Additionally, the waiter whose name I believe was "Javier" was beyond inappropriate and a total trainwreck. The place is dirty, the kitchen is disgusting. Overpriced and all the antics. I will never be returning. read more

So I go Cancun in Norwood the guy bought me my margarita but it was frozen I wanted on ice I was sick and sneezing he took drink back and poured it rt bk in the machine I asked him why did he pour it bk in machine he said because we will sell it later. Then I asked him did they have roaches he said yes so what and they didn't care bout reviews it won't stop ppl from coming wtf! read more

This place is a complete mess. The last time I was here my 13 year old son was inappropriately touched by the wildly energetic dru**ed out waiter! I was in complete disbelief and horror. Not to mention, I saw the waiters pick up the so called "queso" aka slop with their bare hands, MANHANDLING it into the bowl. I mean seriously? My time at this facility continued to go downhill when my enchiladas were chewed up before served? I was on the toilet for hours after my stay and I'm not ashamed to say it. If you need a laxative, I guess take a trip. read more

Food was great. Was ready in just 10 mins for pickup, quick friendly , music playing when you walk in I was ready for a margarita!!

terrible service. i came in with a group of 4 and was rushed to order my food. the food came out dry and the waiter got upset when i politely asked for more queso that was supposed to come with the food. he put his hand in my face and said ill get the manager. the lady who was a "manager" claimed to be the "owner" came and started calling me racial slurs in spanish. we recorded our tabs and they had the audacity to force charge us a tip on my tab. i asked why did you force it if it's not obligatory... this question came from the rudeness of the waitress and how i was treated. she said " stop being difficult pay the tab with the tip or i'll call the cops" . i told her to call them and i'll sit here and wait and nobody ever came. she started to call me all types of racial names and walked away. terrible service read more

When craving Mexican food think Cancun Mexican Restaurant. This place is perfect for lunch or dinner. With lunch options available until 2:30 pm it won't hurt your pockets. Service was pleasant and efficient. Louis was great! He answered questions about the menu and provided suggestions related to popular menu items. When seated, we were immediately given warm chips and salsa. I had the fajita quesadilla. Yum! It came out still sizzling. Also try the strawberry margarita if you're looking for an alcoholic beverage. read more

This was a great experience with a very authentic mexican feel. Waiter was great, food and drinks were good. The issue came was when a lady, I assume the girlfriend of a manager, started playing terrible music, far too loud over the speakers. Taunting members of my party and being rude overall. Honestly ruined the experience. Edited from 3 star to 1. The woman, who was being blatantly rude, proceeded to give us shit when we were walking out. She was friends with a manger she said. I left a good tip but she made me wish I didn't leave anything. I will leave this 1 star review on her behalf. She was obese and I anticipate her death within the next 10 years due to heart complications. read more

Cancun is like a lot of other Mexican restaurants, but that's what I like about it because I know what to expect! Our service was great, our order came out quick and hot, and you get a lot of food for the price. I came here on a Saturday evening and it must have been happy hour because my husband and I were both surprised when we got the bill and saw his margarita cost only $3.99! (It was around 6:30pm when we were there). So that was a nice surprise! We had a slight snafu when we went up to the counter to pay - we had a coupon on our phone but they only accept printed coupons, but the woman working the register allowed us to use the mobile coupon anyway, which was really nice. We visit a lot of Mexican restaurants all over Cincinnati and NKy, but this one is the closest to our house and we will definitely be back! read more

It took four years but I finally made it here to Cancun. This place was super fun. We went on Tuesday and jumbo margs were on sale. I also ordered a chicken and cheese quesadilla and it was exactly what I wanted. After finishing the jumbo margs we decided to split into two teams of four to do a monster marg race, worth. Would recommend. Bring your ID, order a marg, get some chips, eat some food. read more

NEVER misses. I can live off of their food. Everything is so good and properly portioned. Kinda pricey but the taste of the food is worth it. If I can give more than 5 stars i would. Great restaurant vibe. Great customer service. Kind genuine employees. I love it here read more

This is the place to go for Mexican food in the area! The food is delicious! The whole place has an authentic feel to it. The staff is very friendly. The food came out very quickly once ordered. They were not very busy when I was there but my friends tell me even when they are busy the food is delivered to the table hot and quickly. The ambiance is light and fun. If you follow my reviews none are complete without a statement about the value! It's true, I'm cheap. :) This place is priced very well and they even have coupons online. The food is worth every penny and more. So stop reading this review and go there! read more

Just go to Chipotle next door for a better experience and fresher food for half the cost. It started with my menu having dried salsa stuck on the page. My girlfriend had cheese in her menu. The salsa we were given tasted like pasta sauce. Worst salsa I've had at a mexican restaurant. The soda was totally flat. Server was notified about the soda quickly, but a new one wasn't brought out until we were nearly done eating, and that one was ALSO flat! The tv right behind us was airing a race, which meant listening to revving engine sounds all throughout our meal. The entrees were alright and service was friendly, but in the end we spent $40 on an awful experience and as a result our moods were ruined for an hour after we left. I don't recommend this place. read more

Pretty typical of the quantity-trumps-quality mindset that characterizes some of the Mexican mini-chains in the Cincinnati area, Cancun defines the phrase "run of the mill." But would you expect much more of a restaurant that names itself after a beach resort that was basically developed to cater to American tourists? If you're happy with the combo-plate Amercanized Mexican mini-chains like El Rancho Grande and Rio Grande that dot the local scene, you'll probably be happy with Cancun, too. (And you'll be even happier if you value huge calorie counts for small of amounts of money and don't care if those calories just aren't all that great-tasting.) But if you want something a little more adventurous, authentic, or ambitious, you probably won't be so happy at Cancun. Exhibit A: chicken fajitas. They just weren't executed with much care. The chicken was haphazardly chopped, with some occasional gristle and small pieces that were really overcooked. Not much seasoning. And there wasn't very much of it proportionately. Onions were cooked down into a nearly flavorless mush, whereas the green peppers were undercooked and too crisp by contrast. Tortillas were kinda gummy. Pico de gallo was sorta pallid, although the presence of some minced jalapenos was a plus. But it was a lot of food for the money, even with the bad chicken-to-veggies ratio. The overall effect was still pretty satisfying, but this dish sure could use more punch and freshness. The salsa is relatively fresh-tasting, but as Bill E. says, a little heat would help. Service has been friendly enough, but it's also rather inattentive over a couple of visits. The restaurant is colorful, but also so huge and barn-like that it seems like any festive atmosphere might get swamped by the sheer size of the place. That's way too many "buts" to get anywhere near four stars. Almost too many to get to three, as a matter of fact. read more

I've ordered from here many times since the stay home order began and they have never disappointed! I love their veggie platter & queso, so yum :) read more

Horrible experience here. I understand that Cinco De Mayo is a very busy day but this was ridiculous. We ordered from Cancun via Doordash at 5:15pm on Cinco De Mayo and the food was supposed to be delivered anytime from 7:45-8:15pm. We figured we would have a delay but by 8:15, no food. We had the app so we could tell our Doordasher was at the restaurant (and had been for 15 minutes). Our Doordasher (who was awesome and waited for almost an hour during this whole ordeal) called us and told us that the restaurant was running an hour behind. We figured that was the case, no big deal. At 8:40, she called us again and told us that Cancun was refusing to make any order that had been placed after 5pm that day. So basically, we waited for almost 4 hours after we ordered and the restaurant had no plans to let us know that nothing was coming. Never again. read more

Cute atmosphere, great staff, typical menu, HUGE margaritas. Great for groups. We came here a couple of times with our football fan group to watch college games. The staff was amazingly accommodating. They went above and beyond and did a great job keeping our huge beers full while we cheered on our team! Thanks guys! read more

Oh, Cancun. Oh, Norwood. Oh, Karaoke. Add all these three together and you're in for a nite of hilariously good fun! I've actually been here for food previously, as my family and I celebrated my little sister's 23rd birthday here is April. The food was better than I expected for a chain Mexican restaurant in Ohio. I got fajitas and they were tasty. I'm not a huge fan of the guac, it seems less fresh / less chunky and more "we just ran this through a food processor". However, their drinks - specifically margaritas- are very good. And cheap, too! You can buy a pitcher for $25 bucks! If you come here after 9pm on a Thursday, brace yourself for some good 'ole Norwood fun. The crowd is quite unique and the karaoke is not elitist, but it does provide for some knee slapping good times. If you're nervous about singing in front of other people, this is the place to come to - promise! read more

I will begin by saying I didn't make it to actually place my order. I went in right after the lunch special ended. It was my first time at any of the locations. I say an ad in the reach magazine and thought I would give it a try since in the mood for Mexican food. It is located in a convenient location. I went in and only saw one person working. I wanted until he came up to the front. I started I needed to place an order. He then asked if I had called an order in. I explained that I was new to restaurant, he asked if I knew what I wanted. I shared that I want familiar with the menu. He then points to the base area and tells me to grab a menu over there. There happened to be another customer who came in after me so she pointed me in the area that he was taking about. As I looked over the menu to things happened. The first is the customer was placing an order that she said she usually gets, cheese dip, and was told that the chips were extra. She explained she had been in the week prior and they were included. He told her no, it was extra. She then asked for the manager and he indicated that he was the manager. She then got on the phone with a friend to verify their last experience. As I was reviewing the menu the second thing I noticed was a .35c charge for each carry out meal. Being that I was getting a few, I decided not to make a purchase. The poor customer service and cost for carry out ordered was a huge turn off. The manager really lacked customer service skills. I would like to try another location as I have heard great things about the west side locations. Just unfortunate this was my first encounter. read more

Let me just say that I love Mexican food! Ok... I love Americanized Mexican food... ok I love fajitas. lol But this location recently opened up down the street from me, and I had a Val-Pak coupon, so I decided to hit it up with the bf. I was a little leery at first as it's attached to the Holiday Inn (or maybe it was a Comfort inn... not that it matters) and it seemed that it took forever to open! But when we walked in I was totally and pleasantly surprised! This place was huge! and had plenty of seating options! There were also big screen tv in easily viewable yet inconspicuous places throughout so if you wanted to watch the game you could, and if not, you really didn't notice them. I felt brave that night and decided against my normal fajita or enchilada combo that I get just about every freakin time i go to a place like this. Hey go with what you love right?! But I wasn't sure what I was craving, so the Acapulco Special for me it was! It was a mix of steak and chicken and shrimp, and veggies and guac, and even fajita wraps if i wanted them! Perfect for my I-don't-know-what-the-heck-i-want tummy. It. Was. A-freakin-mazing! even the bf's food was really good. The margarita's were incredibly low priced, and incredibly strong as well! I was thinking about docking it a star maybe a half, as the server wasn't around as much as I'd have liked during the meal, but then 1. I realized he was also tending the bar, and 2. the food was just too freakin amazing. I will definately be back here, and this may just kick me out of my normal Mexican/American habit! read more

I love me some good, cheap Mexican food and Cancun is no exception! I went to Cancun for the first time when it was inside the hotel down the street. The location was kind of shady, so I was glad to hear they had located to a better part of the 'hood inside the strip mall next to Chipotle and Marshall's (two of my greatest loves). The decor is exactly the same -- bright colors and bulky carved chairs. There are also a few TVs if you're interested in tuning into a local sporting event. Like most Mexican restaurants, the menu is VERY overwhelming (not that it matters because the only thing I ever order is a taco salad), but the best part of any Mexican restaurant, in my opinion, is the margaritas. El Toro (in Hyde Park Plaza) is very near and dear to my heart, so they had a lot to live up to as far as quality of margs go. I'm happy to report they are up to my standards. In fact, the variety of options may actually surpass that of El Toro. My mind was blown on my last visit when I was informed they "brought back" a WINE MARGARITA (!!!) You guessed right: a mini bottle of wine dumped into a frozen marg. Talk about combining two of my greatest loves! My boyfriend, who isn't much of a wine drinker, ordered the beer margarita and they were the perfect "his and her" margaritas. There's never a ton of people inside, which is fine by me because the service is always wonderful and the food comes out quick. I will definitely be a regular here! read more

The cheese quesadillas are Amazingly good . Furthermore there at a reasonable price point.

I have always been a huge fan of Mexican restaurants and this particular one didn't disappoint. Came here with a friend yesterday for dinner. We were seated right away and it wasn't busy at all.

The food came out quick and was very delicious. Service was great as well. I highly recommend you try it out. read more

The food is pretty average, but the staff is super friendly and prices are reasonable. The happy hour drink specials are good, and Friday night even falls into happy hour. No complaints there! This place has always been a solid choice when I'm craving a margarita, and secondly want something to eat. They recently moved this location (just a block). I must admit that I miss the old location. It used to be attached to a hotel (vacant), so I understand why they moved. It was sort of a sketchy location, but the restaurant was always clean. It was big and dimly lit like a bar. Maybe too big. The new location is in the Kroger plaza. It's only a fraction of the size of the old location. Totally different atmosphere. The new location is way too bright inside, and the tables are crammed in there pretty close to one another. Overall, I think it was a smart move for them though. They were really busy! Being next to Kroger makes them more visible. I asked the cashier how long they have been in the new location. She said a few months, and that business has really picked up, so I'm happy for them. read more
