Came here on a random Tuesday afternoon. The place was a bit divey, but I loved that about it; it reminded me of so many places I've eaten at in Mexico. The guac was definitely a must-order; while a bit pricey, it was super fresh and delicious. We sat outdoors on the patio and were able to be there with the dog. I got an al pastor burrito which was really tasty; although it's not from a pit, the meat was super juicy and flavourful still. I'd definitely come back! read more

Small place very claustrophobic, food wasn't that great Iv had better at local diners. Little disappointed that the salsa and chips were not provided free of charge but had to buy them. The salsa was water down and not good. The guacamole pretty lame also. Soda was 4 bucks a bottle. If I was you I'd stay away hit the pizza place next to it. Service was fast and she was friendly this is the only reason why they get two stars. read more

My wife and I who are avid lovers of Mexican food came upon Cielito Lindo. A nice quaint neighborhood restaurant where the staff welcomes you with open arms. The food is home made and I must say very delicious. They even make fresh lemonade. We would surely recommend coming here for anyone who is in Cornwall. Buen provecho read more

Cielito Lindo Mexican Restaurant - Nachos Con Carne and Chorizo Fundido-- very good and filling! - Mexican Near Me - Cornwall, New York

We got the chicken and beef chimichangas, both of which were really good. Our waitress was nice and checked on us, but she did not tell us that the basket of chips and salsa (which was 7$) was additional charge per basket. Firstly 7$ for a basket of chips is highway robbery for not even that much of neither chips nor salsa. Overall good food and atmosphere but pricing definitely needs work read more

Service was great, very kind. No free chips and salsa. Food was average at best. Warm and fresh, but not the best.

so glad i got try here, the staff, particularly the lady at the counter was very friendly and sweet. I order the mariscos cielito lindo and beef tacos plate. So the seafood casserole was so good, all seafood was very delicious and cooked just right, the rice was soft and fluffy, well-seasoned. The taco were great, small bites full of flavor, pretty of beef, onions and topped with cilantro. I love the little sauce cups that came with taco. rice and beans were good and wish i had more. This may be a small restaurant, but the food really had love put in them. def got to try them again if want Mexican food in the area. read more

Cielito Lindo Mexican Restaurant - mariscos cielito lindo, beef tacos, rice and beans and salad - Mexican Near Me - Cornwall, New York

Very authentic Mexican food. Reasonable price. Will go there again if possible. Highly recommend this place.

Found this place after leaving Storm King Art Center. It was about a ten minute drive. Loved the food it's home-y, fresh, and delicious. I got the days special of quesabirria which was great. I've had birria from a few places in nyc this birria was tasty and not as spicy. Also tried the guac which was milder than what I'm used to but tasty. The complimentary chips and salsa are fresh and the salsa is great. My partner tried the fish tacos and a steak taco which he said "were awesome". Overall tasty fresh home style Mexican food. read more

What a lovely family owned Mexican restaurant this is. Came here after hiking storm king and was so pleased with everything we had. It's a small restaurant so seating is limited but it was empty so we snagged a nice spot by the window. Started with the drink "jamaica" which is basically sweetened hibiscus water. Super refreshing. We also received complimentary chips and salsa. The chips were so crispy and tasted like they were fried up on site. I wanted shrimp tacos and although it wasn't on the menu our waitress said she can sub the fish taco for shrimp which was perfect! The tacos come with side salad or rice & beans. I lovedd the tacos. Very flavorful and filling. My friend got pork tacos which she also enjoyed. We ended with churros which came with a side of ice cream and it was delicious. You can never go wrong with sugary dough. There's a 4% price increase if you pay with card so I recommend bringing cash. Overall a wonderful, tasty meal! read more

The place is cute. Service and people are good. Food takes a while to prepare. Taste (which is MOST important to me) is subpar yet overpriced. I get it. Chicken: Dry and cold Beans-n-Rice: Cold Beef: Warm but dry Chorizo: Warm and best item ordered Cilantro and onions were very fresh 8 tacos + 2 Beans-n-rice = $45 A better suggestion for authentic tacos (for taste) in the West Point area would be Pepe's in Highland Falls (509 Main Street). read more

Cielito Lindo Mexican Restaurant - Tacos + Beans-n-Rice - Mexican Near Me - Cornwall, New York

Surprised again. Their kitchen is spotless! If you've ever ordered a take out burrito you know it can sometimes become a sloppy mess. Their takeout burrito was just as good as eating in. This place is legit just chicken, jalapeño, onion, stewed tomato, with a thin layer of cheese, their homemade red hot sauce with rice & beans on the side. 2 burrito plates just under $30. These are probably the best burritos we've ever had! read more

Amazing, authentic Mexican food prepared and served in a timely manner! The grill is literally just a few feet away! Street tacos for the win! Great fajitas and salsa! Verde sauce added the perfect ouch to anything we enjoyed. Highly recommend! read more

Wonderful small town Mexican joint. The food was fresh and delicious. Burrito was loaded with chicken, shrimp on taco salad was well cooked and seasoned and the tacos were filled even though they were small. Hibiscus water was spot on although could use more ice to keep it chilled. Guac was on point! Quick, delicious and nice staff! read more

The food was good. The service was good. But there were several items added to the bill that we did not expect (aka was not notified ahead of time) and walked out of the restaurant feeling ripped off: 1) the waitress gave us complementary chips and salsa in the beginning and casually asked if we wanted a refill - which we did, because we thought it was complementary - but we were charged $3.50 for the refill without being noticed. 2) the waitress asked if we wanted any drinks and we said water - and gave us 2 water bottles (didn't ask us if we wanted tap or bottled water) and charged us $4.00. I guess this is fair because we should have known bottled water is not for free. Still, it would have been nice if she had given us a choice. 3) I asked for the check and paid with a credit card - we were charged an extra 4% of the bill for the credit card processing fee. When we inquired about this charge, the waitress said it's indicated on the menu, which we, of course, didn't get to read because who reads every word on the menu?? It's too bad the great experience we had was tainted at the end because we were caught off guard. I don't mind paying for your services and food - just tell me ahead of time! read more

I love me some Mexican food. Stopped in to get some tacos along with chips and salsa for take out. I ordered a few chicken and chorizo ones to share. I have to say they were pretty good. They weren't skimpy with the meat and cilantro. I love cilantro!! I wish the lime wedges they gave me weren't dry but thank goodness I always have limes at home. The salsa for the chips was really good. Chucky and flavorful. I thought the food was pretty good and I will come back to order other items. I really want to try the tinga next. read more

Authentic Mexican food that serves fresh, beautiful food that tastes 100% home made. The food was fresh as can be and so delicious. We sat in the back on the patio that had it's own charm and a cool breeze kept us comfortable. I'm guessing one of the owners waited on us and she was kind and attentive. They make their own line of homemade unique sauces and we bought a bottle of tamarind sauce for home. A great experience, we would come back. read more

Got some yummy tacos, chips, salsa and guacamole from here and enjoyed it all! Very generous portions of the chips, salsa and guac. It's always nice to try an authentic Mexican place that is new to us. read more

Very fun and easy-we loved it and hope to frequent Cielito Lind

Absolutely delicious authentic Mexican food. We had the street corn, a beef burrito and beef empanadas! So perfect! And the employees are all so friendly. Will not go anywhere else from now on! Can't wait to go back! Super excited about this place! Thank you Cielito Lindo Mexican Restaurant!!! read more

While the food is excellent I was disappointed to learn I was charged an additional 1.50 (4%) for using my debit card. Generally our orders are 40-60$, in an era where there is coin shortages and small businesses closing this truly disheartened me. Credit/debit cards are common place very few people carry large amounts of cash anymore, credit card fees have become a normal part of doing business. Unfortunately they have lost a customer read more

Placed order from across the country for a graduation! They came through and food was great! Delivered on time and price was as quoted.

Great service and delicious food. If you're looking for a quick bite that is tasty AF, this is the place for you. FYI - they don't have a liquor license but they let you bring your own booze. read more

Was in a soupy kinda mood. Picked up a quart of pozole. Delicious! Came with a torta on the side.

I am from California and these tacos taste like home! Not a statement made easily. You can tell everything is prepared lovingly and the kitchen is super clean. I could smell the pinto beans cooking in the kitchen. So good. The tacos were a thing a beauty, as were the tortillas themselves. My favorite was the steak. The tamarindo drink was the real thing. I will be returning. For sure. This is going to be a go-to. Thank you for making me feel at home! read more

I've eaten here half a dozen times, tried the Tacos al Pastor Wednesday night they were so good I went back Saturday night and had 3 more. I would have gone back tonight but didnt get there on time. Its great to have such a good inexpensive Mexican restaurant in town! read more

the town of Cornwall is so cute, and we were delighted to find this tiny festive Mexican restaurant there. the people working there were lovely, and despite only having maybe five tables we were seated right away. the food came out quickly and it was delicious---chimichanga and sopes. and their guacamole is delicious!! highly recommended! read more

Absolutely horrible customer service. Waited an hour for the wrong food and then when I informed them of their error they would not refire food or give refund. Never again read more

Food and service are consistently great. On a rare occasion when you call in an order you may get someone who doesn't understand specific requests to change ingredients in a dish but I can't fault them for that since it's a language barrier. Everything tastes fresh and we always know we're going to enjoy what we order. read more

This restaurant definitely has real deal mexican food. Its a refreshing change of pace for the town of cornwall bc its mainly just pizzerias and old people local yokel places. Ive had food from here on three separate occasions but have held off writing a review bc each time the food just wasnt flavorful enough for me - but i wanted to keep trying to give them a fair shot. This may be a personal thing and not an actual them issue. I do really love how they give very generous portions and in these really tough times for local businesses (middle of covid-19 outbreak) they are open and serving take out. I hope this business stays in cornwall. read more

As a native Texan, I'd drive to Nyack (45 min) to get the only tacos around here that were worth it. This place was recommended to us by my husband's coworker and I'm so glad we went! For just having been open two weeks, I was very impressed with everything we ordered. There's plenty on the menu to choose from if you're looking to change it up, too. This place will now be my go-to (so happy it's so much closer to me!) and I can't wait to continue trying other things as they expand their options in the future. Get in there and try this place! read more

Their guacamole is always delicious and finally had their empanadas today and they are so good. We always get a mix of different tacos and like to try something different each time. Chorizo taco is a favorite. Food is always fresh! read more

Awesome food, but terrible customer service. We ordered through Grubhub just 30 mins ago. I specifically requested NO ONIONS because my husband and I despise raw white onions. I know this goes against tradition. We received our order and the tacos were covered in onions. I called to say, hey I requested no onions. The guy who answered the phone was rude. He basically called me a liar when I said I put in the directions no onions. "Well I don't see any directions." I said, but I'm telling you I wrote them. "Well I'm telling you there are no directions". So I said is it the Grubhub app? "Oh yeah we've been having problems." AH! Does nothing to attempt to rectify. Tells me he doesn't need me as a customer when I said I won't be ordering from there again. read more
