Blood orange pomegranate and pineapple trio. Fantastic combination of flavors. Great service as always.
Roger B.

Great bar service wait staff Cat too. Had rice beans tomatillo salsa chips and brisket tacos. Delicious! Keep it up. Hate to recommend because was a 30 minute wait on a Wednesday.

Brûlée

Food was great, we all know that already but I wanna highlight something that was so impressive it could not go unpraised. I have a serious allergy to a food that is in a lot of their products (I did not know before I came). They were sooo diligent that my allergy was not overlooked. In the appetizers my allergy was taken out, they told me what salsas I could have and even modified my entree to be allergen friendly without my knowledge because it wasn't listed on the ingredients. I also wanted to praise the fact that all of the staff is epi pen trained and they have epi pens on site if needed. This was not the experience I expected to have it was above expectations and set the standard for great service. Side note on the food: all of it was fresh and delicious you cannot go wrong with any of it.

Guac Trio. Crab, black pepper, and goat cheese
Aria J.

This was my second time here and I'm so glad I came back. The first time I came I didn't understand the hype. This time... I get it. The array of guacamole options is reason a lone to come. It's fresh, flavorful, and worth the hype. If you don't get the trio what are you even doing?! The atmosphere is trendy and great for a date night or a night with friends. I love sitting upstairs and being able to see the kitchen. Service was quick and the drinks were potent.

Upstairs

Solid Mexican spot in Cleveland with downstairs and upstairs seating. We didn't make reservations for a Monday night and were able to get seated around 6pm no problem for a party of 5. We got the guacamole trio with pineapple, crab, and smoked trout. Pineapple was my favorite, but I could barely taste the crab. The margarita flights was a great value with pretty good pours. For our entrees, we had the carne asada and smoked trout. Pretty large portions and we had to take half our entrees home. Overall great experience and fun nacho libre-type artwork inside

Shrimp tacos
Stephanie S.

Momocho how has an awesome patio with a great vibes. It's pretty shaded, so you don't have to worry about melting in the sun. I recently stopped in on. Monday, which was their mezcal Monday feature. They had a few mezcal cocktails and shot specials. I got a mezcalarita which was delicious. I also got some pineapple guacamole. It was pretty sweet but didn't have much flavor beyond that. My server was kind enough to bring me some bacon lardons to try to give it that salty sweet taste, but it didn't really do much. It wasn't my favorite guac, although it was really fresh. Still a good snack to nibble on since I wasn't super hungry. My cousin got the shrimp tacos which come deconstructed. The flavor on the shrimp was really good.

Margarita flight
Anna M.

The good: The food. Oh my god, the food. I got the carne asada. My friend got the machaca taquitos. We both got margarita flights, and for chips we did the classic guacamole and roasted tomato salsa. Everything was amazing. The steak was tender, potatoes were crispy and fluffy, flavor was there on everything. Guacamole is so smooth and creamy. The bad: The service was rough. Slow, awkward pauses between courses, and we and the table next to us had to ask to put in our mains and for the check. It is a busy place but needs to be streamlined a bit for sure. Our dinner service lasted over an hour and a half. However, nothing was unforgivable and I would say the food more than made up for this. Also. The decor is amazing and the restaurant is beautiful inside.

Blue Corn Enchiladas
Ariel C.

Great food, service, and overall experience! We visited on a weekday evening and were able to get seated on the patio right away. The environment is nice and casual. We ordered the crab guacamole and carrot elote, and the blue corn enchiladas. All flavors were delicious and unique!

Amazing every time!!!! I love the food and drinks. You understand why people wait over a hour for this place. I can not wait to come back again and try something new.

Taquitos Pollo and a Classic Margarita
Abbey C.

We went there last night as a larger group (6 people) and the service was incredible. Very friendly staff who were very knowledgeable about the food/drinks and provided lots of amazing recommendations. My dad was very excited to try different types of margaritas and ended up getting a combo one with Hibiscus and Pineapple and he was in love. I had their classic margarita and that was still just as good and I loved it as well! Ask for the chefs homemade habanero hot sauce!! It is incredible. Guacamole (goat, crab, and trout) were all really great as well.

Guacamole n chips flight.. many selections to choose.
Ariana M.

Amazing find while traveling and visiting Cleveland.. From the decor, bar, vibe, owner and staff were all great very attentive and made us feel very at home, since we visited from california.. definitely recommend this place! Food was tasty full of flavors and every dish we got was great to the last bite. Chef definitely knows what he is doing and he is a pleasure .

We were visiting Ohio for a concert and wanted to grab a quick bite to eat. Momocho was right next to our air bnb and we are so glad we walked over. The food, presentation and hospitality were amazing. I had the trout. My boyfriend had the Barbacoa and my niece had the carnita tacos. We were all happy and enjoyed our food. Even took our left overs home to enjoy when we got back from the concert . Go check this place out!!!

Flautas
Meera K.

This was such a fun date night spot! Could be casual or upscale casual, no pressure! The food was delicious, I loved the mole sauce on the flautas, we asked for more! And we are hot sauce lovers and the momocho hot sauce did not miss, it was delicious on the remolacha taquitos and on the chips and salsa. Doe drinks, we enjoyed the Oaxacan old fashioned, mezcal sour, killer bee and margarita flight, all very well balanced. Highly recommend next time you're in Ohio City!

We discovered Amigos a couple years ago, when seating was very limited, but they recently expanded and the decor is more inviting and authentic. We've tried a lot of things on this menu and have never been disappointed. Our food has always been fresh and plentiful, served with a smile. Two things I can ecstatically recommend: their house guacamole and their margaritas. Their hearty and bold guacamole is made fresh to order right at your table and it's become our favorite guacamole. We love their mango margaritas. We have found chunks of mango in ours, and make certain to always get the rims coated with tajin because they use tamarind to get the spice to stick to the rim--so tasty! This is a really enjoyable restaurant we always look forward to visiting!

This is some very good Mexican food. The place is small, but the flavors are large. My daughter and…read moreI split some appetizers. The margaritas were large and delicious. The chicken tacito appetizer was just okay, but they will make fresh made guac at your table while you watch. That quac was superb. We made it disappear quickly with nachos. The barria tacos were excellent and the sauce they make for them is delectable. The cole slaw was different and delicious. Wasn't expecting that. The torta was superb. Great food, great service. We'll be back!

When traveling for work from Toronto, I usually take the opportunity to have my bosses pay for me…read moreto enjoy new and interesting foods. This time I was inspired to look for a Mexican ceviche. In my most recent adventure, I visited Taqueria La Loma in Akron and very much enjoyed my meal. After ordering from the counter, I sat down and was quickly given some fresh chips and salsa to snack on. Although these were delicious, I probably should have passed on this because what I ordered was much more that I could eat alone. I was impressed by the flavor and value of the Mixed (shrimp and octopus) Ceviche, and would absolutely suggest it to anyone. I'd never had octopus ceviche before, and was concerned about chewiness, but was pleasantly surprised at how tender it was. I assume the shrimp ceviche is similarly good. I also ordered 3 birria tacos. I found there was maybe slightly too much cheese in the taco, but the tasty consomé dip was impressive. To wash it all down, I had one of the best horchata drinks I've ever had in my life. It was sooo good and a must-have. The staff was attentive and helpful, and the food came out quickly. The restaurant was basic, but clean, and looks like the kind of authentic place you'd want to go for a casual but tasty Mexican food meal. I will be recommending this place to my co-workers in the Akron office, and will go back again next time I'm in town.

The servers are peasant and the inside is nice. Unfortunately the food is typical American Mexican…read more Very bland beans and rice. No real flavor to my chimichanga. One of the best parts of a chimichanga is the deep fried exterior and crunch. Here they smother the chimichanga in cheese so there was no crunch to it. I know places like this are very popular so I gave it three stars but if you want authentic food look else where.
