One of the best taco spots in Cincinnati! This go around I tried their horchata and it was amazing. To me it tastes like cinnamon toast crunch milk and I loved that. I normally get the chicken tacos but this time I ordered the mixed tacos with 2 chicken and pork taco. I definitely will get that combo again. I also got to try their spicy sauce and it elevated the tacos. I can't wait to come back. read more

This place, never disappoints! No matter what I try, it is always delicious. I got guacamole, Horchata, and my entrée. The guacamole is always superb. I had these tacos for the first time and absolutely loved them because they were crunchy and had condiments already included. Service is always quick and friendly. This place is busy, especially on a taco Tuesday because their food is great! The weather was nice so there's indoor seating and outdoor seating. It may take a while to get seated because the restaurant is not that big, but it's always a friendly, bustling environment. I enjoyed my Horchata, but I wish that they would give refills on it, at least one. read more

Had to review this restaurant again. I think it has the some of the best Mexican food in the area. The restaurant interior and exterior maybe unassuming but the food is packed with flavor and fresh. The prices are moderate. The staff are helpful and efficient. The blue corn quesadillas are perfect. Try the chips and salsa bar : the salsas are excellent. read more

Really small and cute place, I loved how you could order and go sit down. And the service was pretty good as well. This places seems truly authentic! The chips, salsa, and guac were all so good. My favorite was the medium green salsa. The only thing I would ask for would be if the chips had more salt on them, but it was still so good. I also had the grilled fish tacos... good amount of spice, and the lime made it perfect! Would definitely go back. read more

Have been a few times and the food is always good. The ingredients taste fresh and there is a nice variety of dishes on the menu. The tacos are good but I like the quesadillas and the tacos dorados best! Nice portion and love the blue corn tortilla! The guac is great and the salsas are super flavorful and add an extra punch to the food. I do wish that they had regular tortilla chips for the salsas and guac instead of tostadas but it certainly is not a dealbreaker! Service is good and the food has been consistent for dine in and take out! read more

Mazunte Taqueria - Veggie quesadillas - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

We had friends stopping through on a road trip and we needed to find someplace to meet that was 1. Dog friendly 2. Baby friendly 3. Dairy-free friendly and 4. Delicious! I'm so glad I thought of Mazunte because it's absolutely perfect for all of the above! The patio seating is extensive and covered, which was good on a day with scattered showers. We easily found a table four our party of 4 (plus dog and baby) and the food was out within 1 mins of our order. There's limited seating inside, and it's been busy each time I'm costed, so being open to an outside seat is a good idea- the beautiful plants and shave help sweeten the deal! Now for the food- I absolutely love their empanadas, enchiladas, and chile rellenos. This time I tried the tacos and I loved that you can mix any flavor in an order of 3 because I couldn't decide. I got 1 fish taco, one chicken taco, and one veggie taco. Each had such a unique flavor profile and the sauces/salsas/slaws are so fresh. I ordered one without the cheese it came with and the other 2 were naturally dairy-free, and I didn't miss the dairy at all because they were so flavorful. Finally- definitely get the chips and salsa bar. It's unlimited so your whole table can go back again and refill the fresh chips and 4 different kinds of salsa. One of the best deals for apps in the city! I absolutely love Mazunte and will be back again and again. read more

Haven't been in forever as remote and live 20 miles away. Went into office today, and said, hey, let me go back. Still busy as ever which means, delicious. The verde is everything just like I remembered it. You can get it at Kroger but just not the same. Their red one, can't remember but was middle spice for better over time. Friendly staff and packed inside, just like I remember. Try everything! Never a bad meal read more

Mazunte Taqueria - 4 Tacos Dorados - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Authentic and good Mexican! The tacos were absolutely delicious. My dad ordered the steak tacos and he said that he would order them again! I ordered the pork tacos which were fabulous. The queso was creamy and arguably the best part of the meal. You order at the counter, and the food is brought out to your table. It came out quickly, even though the place was packed for a Wednesday night. Luckily, we were able to grab a table inside. We visited during the summer, and while the restaurant does have AC, it was still a bit warm inside. Overall, we really enjoyed both the food and the experience. Would absolutely go back! read more

Mazunte Taqueria - Fish tacos - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

The food here is fantastic. Authentic Mexican food from the Baja Peninsula. They have Gluten free options if that is a problem for you. Go. Don't walk, run. And don't let how busy it is scare you. Get in line and wait for a seat because it's always busy, but the wait is't bad especially since adding additional seating outside. Or: You can order take out. But you'll have to pick it up at their pickup location down the road 6216 Madison Rd. In Madisonville. I always order a bowl of their Pazole soup. POZOLE..... $10.45 Traditional Mexican soup with pork, chicken, hominy, red radish, white onion, avocado, cabbage, cilantro, lime, Mexican oregano and tostadas (GF) CALDO DE POLLO..... $9.40 Mexican chicken soup served with garbanzo beans, rice, cilantro, onion, avocado, red chile flakes and tostadas (GF) Here's a link to their menu: https://mazuntetaqueria.com/menu/ read more

I love everything about this place. It smells like my grandma's kitchen in Mexico. The music. The green house that's warm when it's cold out. The fact that it's not just great tacos but the great caldos (soups) too. No gimmicks just really good Mexican food. read more

Good. Great. Best. Order at counter and find table. We got the chips and salsa bar. Do not skip it. Great tortillas -whole tortilla that you go at with your hands. Great sign that they are not from a bag. Salsas were fresh and full of flavor. My friends had tacos - vegetarian and chorizo were great. I had chicken enchiladas with green slasa verde. No leftovers. We will be back read more

When we arrived, the food arrived quickly and was incredibly fresh! I loved the fish tacos and queso fundido. The atmosphere was perfect for enjoying delicious margaritas, despite the overcast weather. I definitely recommend it and can't wait to return! read more

Plenty of parking front and back. Not a lot of indoor seating but outdoor will be great when it warms up. I really like the decor it is different from what I usually see in Mexican restaurants. It was warm and cozy. The seating is not cushioned so bring your own if needed. The food was so good! It is a smallish menu but the items are flavorful! Even the black beans! Order at the counter, get your identifying marker, get your own drinks and your door will show up shortly. Good food, nice people and a lovely atmosphere. Give them a try for a casual meals experience. read more

Mazunte Taqueria is a must hit in the Cincinnati area. These tacos are bursting with flavor and their picante salsa is among my all time favorites. The grilled fish tacos were just ridiculously good. The grilled fish was juicy and well seasoned. Topping it off with some of the picante salsa was just the perfect combination. The delicious food accompanied by energetic servers and a beautiful outdoor atmosphere makes this one of my personal favorites. When I go to Cincinnati, I'll always stop by. read more

This gem off the beaten path has amazing food and tasty margaritas. Highly recommend!

Mazunte is great. They have awesome catering. It's the best when my work caters for lunch.

On May 6, 2025 I phoned Mazunte in Oakley and spoke to an employee who was a young woman and I made a reservation for June 6, 2025 at 6 pm for 10 people and the woman on the phone confirmed the reservation. Today June 1, 2025 I called to confirm that reservation and the female employee that I spoke to told me that Mazunte does not take reservations????? She told me that she had no record of the reservation that I made on May 6, 2025????? My family has been planning this dinner for almost a month and I cannot get a clear response for anyone who works for Mazunte? Please contact me A.S.A.P. 513-260-5397 Thank you read more

MUST TRY!!! Being from Arizona I'm always a bit skeptical trying Mexican food if the state isn't on the southern border. We went in on a weekday for lunch. Everyone spoke very little English which was a good sign of the possibility of good Mexican food. We ordered: Chips & Salsa, Tacos (Fish, Steak, Pastor (special)), Tamales (Chicken and Pork). The chips are uncut fried tortillas which some people might not like having to be pretty handsy with them. Each taco had incredible individualized fix-ins. It's a shame when other taco places do the same for every taco but they don't work with every protein. Tacos are a must try!! I preferred the Chicken Tamale more but both were good. The side of rice was tasty. Overall, this has to be the best Mexican food in Cincinnati!!! read more

When I came in I made my order and they brought the food to the table pretty fast.the food was room temperature &I ordered the chicken taco and the avocado dip. The avocado dip tasted too lemony and the color was a little brown. I felt this place was too overrated and the quality was just okay. The employee didn't seem happy and were not welcoming. I asked for a high chair for my baby and they said we have them but didnt pull one up for me at the table. When I went to get a high chair all of them were dirty with sauce and rice.my husband had to clean it before we put our baby in it. I was REALLY disappointed in this place's food and service. I made 2 orders of tacos and got a drink as well and costed it costed me $40 dollars in total which I believe is not worth it. I will not be coming and will not recommend this place. As far as the ambiance there was no AC in the wooden area outside but only in the building were the food was being made. We were really hot in the wooden area. read more

I've been to this location and the one downtown. The food is delicious and the service is always super fast. We've always gone at the right time before the rush so we get to enjoy the atmosphere. Definitely get the big chips and the queso. read more

Amazing Mexican food! I cannot say it enough. Fun environment with indoor and outdoor seating options. Parking can be challenging at times so carpool if you can! When you come in you will order and then they will bring the food to your table! The Pozoe soup is amazing as well and a requirement for me to grab in the winter! My favorite tacos are by far the grilled fish tacos and the chicken! I typically order 2 fish and 1 chicken when I order. Then will grab a margarita and split chips and guacamole with whoever I go with. read more

The food at Mazunte Taqueria is definitely the star, though the decor is pretty cool. One orders when they walk in the door, so we weren't prepared. Thankfully, it wasn't too busy so we were able to quickly peruse the menu and make our choices. I don't recall what time we arrived, but it must have been close to opening (11 am). By the time we left the place was packed! I ordered the Tacos Dorados and Mark had the Enchiladas. We also ordered the Chips & Salsa bar. The Tacos Dorados were fantastic. I loved the crunch of the fried tortillas and all the wonderful cheese. Mark very much enjoyed his meal. The chips tasted fresh. They were definitely not from a bag. That's a huge plus. And the salsa (we tried them all) were also fresh and bursting with flavor. Don't pass on this because it costs money. The chips and salsa are TOTALLY worth it! We will definitely stop in again. I need to try some of the other tacos. read more

Used to be iffy on Mazunte but now I'm all aboard. This place consistently delivers great food and margs! Breaded fish taco is my favorite and the tamales were great, preferred pork with mole sauce.

This is the best Mexican food I've ever had outside of Mexico itself. I live and breathe Mexican food and hands down this is the most authentic food with the freshest ingredients. I ended up with a caldo de pollo, 3 chorizo tacos, and an order of tacos dorado. It was so fire I was scraping at the bowl of caldo when I was finished. I had to go back and get another two fish tacos and a steak taco. Literally the absolute best Mexican food I have had in a very long time. These guys really nailed it and I'll absolutely be back. This is all coming from a Florida native who has travelled to Mexico several times. read more

Mazunte's Mexican food is truly magical. Having grown up in Arizona, I like to think I know a thing or two about tacos -- and this little Madisonville taqueria is doing everything right. I've visited twice -- my first was on a weekday evening during their dinner rush, and we had to wait 20ish minutes for our food, after waiting in line to order for about 15 minutes. Let me just tell you that these tacos are totally worth the wait!! Typically they'll get you your drinks and chips and dips while you're waiting, so just settle in with one of their margs and be patient. My most recent visit was also on a weekday, but around 3 p.m. This is an insider hack - we were the only people in the restaurant! If you don't like waiting for your food, definitely try to stop in during off-hours, although their team definitely cranks through orders pretty quickly. Of the different types of tacos that I've tried here, the Vegetable ones are easily my favorite. They're full of flavorful veggies, and topped with deliciously crumbly cheese. I also love that their tortillas (and chips) are all made in house! Thanks for being such a delicious dining option in the Oakley area, Mazunte, I can't wait to stop in again soon! read more

There's a reason this spot is so popular! We were lucky enough to visit in between the lunch and dinner hours, and had zero wait. It felt like you were stepping into a small restaurant in Mexico. Thanks to the music, overall decor and fabulous menu. We enjoyed the taco sampler with a veggie taco, filled with mushrooms, goat, cheese, black beans, and pickled onions, along side, the pork and chicken tacos. I would say the pork taco was probably our favorite but the veggie was a close second. I'm not much of a mushroom fan, but this one was pretty delicious. You can tell they put a lot of thought into each of their ingredients. We also ordered the maiden house guacamole with tortilla chips. My only regret was that we were trying to save room for dinner or we would have explored more of the menu. The tamales and blue corn enchiladas were definitely catching my eye. All the more reason to visit again. They offer a variety of seating options, both outdoor and indoor, and we really loved the look and feel of the skylight paneled room, and that seem to be where most people converged. read more

Mazunte Taqueria - 3 Chicken Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

One thing that stands out to me is that they're actually open seven days a week. It is remarkably hard to find quality food in Cincinnati on a Monday. Their setting includes a wooden semi-enclosed deck which was perfect for a beautiful fall day. Even on a Monday, it was pretty busy, with someone ordering a set of tacos for what must have been a very large office standing in front of me and a variety of others coming in behind me. They have clearly marked vegetarian and GF options, and while the tacos looked good, I figured enchiladas would be more filling. My plate was quite splendid-looking. The veggies included mushrooms and some sort of squash, and a fresh bit of leafy greens on top really livened things up. It included rice, but not beans, which I might have ordered separately if I'd thought of it. I was, however, happy with the vanilla and cinnamon flavoring of the horchata which was poured for me by someone at a separate drink and appetizer stand. I liked the menu, the flavoring, and the setting. I might make a few more vegetarian-oriented changes, but for Mexican food in a Cincinnati suburb, this place delivered on quality. read more

We love coming here. Some of the best tacos I've had. The place is not very big, but they have outdoor tables and also a climate controlled extension. The people that work there are always friendly and pleasant. The fish tacos are so good, but whatever you do, do NOT skip the salsa bar. Their house made chips are huge and the variety of salsa is so nice. The salsa verde is my favorite. read more

Mazunte Taqueria - Fish tacos and salsa bar. - Mexican Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

My family and I absolutely love Mazunte! We have been going here since 2016 and every time it's been great. My wife and I shared the chips & queso with salsa as well and it did not disappoint! The queso was very hot and we actually mixed it with the spicy salsa which was a delicious combination. The spiciest salsa comes in the small container and has a Smokey chipotle pepper flavor similar to the chipotle smoked Tabasco sauce but leagues above it in quality. I like it a lot better than their old hot salsa which was a mango habanero sauce that was much spicier than the new hot sauce. Every time I go to Mazunte I always get the Tacos Dorados and they were incredible this time! Very hot chicken/sauce inside paired with fresh greens / sauces on top is the best combo. I love the crunch of each fried taco and the flavors of everything together are amazing! The outdoor patio is perfect for sunny days and the overall atmosphere of this place is great. The staff is always helpful, respectful, and super nice. Overall I would highly recommend Mazunte! read more
