Carnitas
Tony A.

I was on my way home from a conference and the lunch time hunger hit. However, I wasn't feeling like fast food and drove by Riviera Maya as they didn't look very busy. When I walked in, I was met with all kinds of vibrant colors and very upbeat cultural music, which was very fun. I was immediately welcomed and sat and was brought some chips and fresh salsa. I ordered the carnitas a d it came out hot, fresh and fast! The pork was fork tender, and the corn tortillas were hot! Everything worked well together and was very delicious.

Mix Combination Fajitas
Jesse L.

Great experience here. The mixed fajitas were delicious and service was good as well. Definitely recommend this spot.

Grilled Shrimp Salad
Rachel S.

I really enjoyed the quiet fun atmosphere, fast and friendly service, and the food here. We got the grilled shrimp salad and the maya burrito which was the special and they were both a good size portion but able to be finished by one person each.

Quesadilla Rellena
C C.

Neat coming in here with the decor. Food portions are big so be ready, and to go along with those portions you can get a big beer too. The Quesadilla Rellena was perfect for me without the rice for portions but then again I so hungry I ate it and now I need a nap! Tasty place.

I found a new favorite in Columbus! Originally planning to just get take-out here, we ended up eating in. There was so many good looking drinks on the menu, I ordered a big margarita drink with a corona beer in it. I was definitely satisfied with my choice. One thing I love about dining in at a Mexican restaurant is the free chips and salsa they bring around which was very good here. Chips were warm and fresh tasting. Dinner was the special dinner platter which was way more food than what we could both handle, but very delicious nevertheless. Came with a chalupa, taco, chile relleno, tamole and an enchilada with rice and beans on the side. Good to order if you don't know what else to get. After all was said and done, we had to walk off the food and drinks since we had so much.

This place was great! Very affordable and margaritas were huge! (Although didn't have a lot of alcohol as a friend commented.) I ordered a taco salad and friends ordered variety fajitas. All came out quickly and flavors were rich. We used the yelp deal, but food was affordable even without that.

I have been a decent fan of El Nopals' restaurants for quite a few years and most are very good,…read moredecent and good service. Out of 4 different El Nopal I have frequented this location in Columbus was the best ever. From the minute we walked in with our grandkids, everything was upper bar level. They acknowledged us right upon entering to assisting us to our seats and explaining everything to the kids regarding kid menu and also to us adults. They promptly asked for drink orders and the drinks were served so quickly. They asked if we were ready to order and assisted the kids with questions regarding what was what and possible order choices. We had a child's quesadilla, a Enchiladas Suprema's, Burrito Gigante and Quesadilla Roja, plus the nacho chips and dip. Food came out quick and the waiter and manager was present throughout our dining event but not overly bothersome what so ever. If your in the area, I highly recommend this location. I don't think you will be disappointed.

My first experience here, a carry out order…read more I called and ordered cheese enchiladas, beans, rice, and chips and cheese dip. Service was very friendly and my order was ready at the quoted time, which was 10 to 12 minutes. My food was very good. The enchiladas were very good, and so was the rice. Refried beans had good favor but were thin without texture. Chips, salsa, and cheese dip were all good. The cheese dip was hot and creamy. This restaurant is conveniently located just off I-65.

This place serves really good food. Most of the other Mexican restaurants I've tried around here…read moreare actually Tex Mex, which is fine, but not really representative of what you'd actually get in Mexico. This one actually captures much better the flavors of Mexico. I especially liked the salsa verde on my chilaquiles -- it had the same brightness and heat you'd get in Mexico City. Their drinks are also homemade and delicious. Went with a group of people with various experience with Mexican food and everyone was very happy with what they got. The only downside is that they seem to really be struggling with staffing. One lady seemed to be doing almost all the work. She was delightful and incredibly helpful but clearly overwhelmed without enough staff to help her. Our food came out slow, with at least 20 mins between the first and last person being served, and needed several corrections to get right. I'm not going to detract a star for this on my first visit because the food was really that good and I want to be fair in case that was just a one off thing but I also wouldn't go back with a group of more than 2-3 people next time.

Hacienda-inspired decor brightened with color and welcoming staff. Although not five-star worthy…read morethe food is tasty. I recommend the Cubana Torta, Taco al Vapor or Elote. It's a casual place if you want something specific in the Mexican cuisine since they have a fair amount of options.
