    I love the food here. I have tried this place couple times. Only difference of my last visit was the service. Either I went on after busy time or for some reason their staff looked tired and not that active. (Normally I saw many staff smiling and always cheering in this place) Margarita was great. There are many favor and the place offers flights that you could choose 6 favors. Overall this is one of a good mexican food in the area.

    This is a New Mexican restaurant in northern Kentucky. The food was absolutely the best Mexican food I've had in a long time. The service was outstanding and the restaurant building is new so it's very clean and neat the quantity of the food for lunch was more than I could eat, and I'm a big eater! I highly recommend this restaurant for Mexican food

    Margaritas!

    Margaritas were delicious and the food was scrumptious! We got the flight of margs and a house marg on the rocks, I'd recommend them all. Service was top notch! We're already looking forward to going back!

    Everything is delicious! Definitely not your average Mexican restaurant. I love Rio in Newport and this far exceeds that.

    Very disappointing experience at El Cerro…read more Unfortunately, this wasn't just a bad visit. The quality and service have been slipping for a while now, and I've continued coming back hoping things would improve. This visit was the final straw. The problems started before the food even arrived. We were seated in what felt like the loudest and most crowded section of the restaurant, despite there being plenty of open tables elsewhere. I asked if it would be possible to move to a different area and was told someone would check. After waiting quite a while and never hearing anything back, I finally had to ask again. At that point, we were told we could move to one of the open tables, but the interaction felt dismissive, as though we were causing an inconvenience by asking. Unfortunately, the experience only went downhill from there. I ordered the Arroz con Pollo, and when it arrived, it had very little cheese on it (see photo). For a $17 plate, it needs to have at least a fraction of cheese on it that you can see. I asked for cheese on my meal because it did not come out the way it normally does. I was not asking for an extra side order. I was simply asking for the dish to be corrected. When the bill came, I was charged for the additional cheese. I explained that I should not have to pay extra for cheese when my meal had come out with little to none on it in the first place. I even offered to show the photo of the original plate, but that was ignored. Instead, I was told that charging for a bowl of cheese is their standard policy. What frustrated me most was that the server had never even seen the original plate because someone else delivered the food. Yet when I explained that this was not how the dish is normally served, I was told it was normal. As a longtime customer who orders this meal regularly, I can confidently say otherwise. There was no apology and no effort to understand the concern. The issue was never really about the charge itself. It was the attitude and lack of customer service throughout the entire visit. It's disappointing because this used to be one of my favorite local restaurants. Unfortunately, the food, service, and overall experience have steadily declined. After this experience, I don't plan on returning.

I talked him into lunch here and he said he hadn't been in a LONG time, and overall, we were both very impressed. I mean, it was good before, but they've really stepped up their game since my last visit. The inside is still the same, lots of comfortable seating, and a very laid back atmosphere. Their food menu seemed larger than I recall with lots more tasty options. Their libations menu seemed larger too. We started with the classic chips and salsa along with an order of fresh guacamole. Both the salsa and the guac were excellent with a nice jalapeno kick. I couldn't stop eating both and it was tough to choose which I liked more. For our mains, my boss ordered a bowl of Azteca soup and two chicken tamales, and I ordered the tacos al pastor. We didn't wait long at all before it was all ready. My boss's soup was HUGE and he really enjoyed it as well as the tamales. My al pastor was some of the best I've had in a while and I liked that they had big chunks of pineapple in it instead of tiny pieces like many places. It also had a nice spicy kick that made my nose run a little. Totally worth it though. I really forgot how good this place is so this lunch was a great reminder. I think I'll be bringing my lady along next time for a meal and some margaritas.
