Condado Tacos 3329 Vandercar Way, Cincinnati, OH 45209

"I gave two stars because the food is always good . We went up there this past Saturday or Sunday around 2-3pm. There were two bartenders, a hostess and maybe 1-2 servers. Maybe 4 total tables full in entire restaurant . We sat for 15 minutes before someone came for our drink order . Our server was sitting with her back towards us at the table right next to us , she was also bartending, but mostly sitting with another server talking . We almost walked out after waiting for so long . I had been bragging to my fiance about how good the food is so I wanted to stay. We also really enjoy the atmosphere there . Once the server approached , we ordered our entire order , and someone else brought it out , we were not checked on until the food was gone . We had to request plates and sour cream from the expo person, And at that point in time , we had been there for too long . She could see the food was gone when she checked on us but it was another 10-15 before plates were collected and check provided . Food overall is very very good , would not recommend going in the middle /end of shift change."

"We had dinner at Condado Tacos in Cincinnati last night before the Cyclones hockey game. Our server was Shawn/Shaun (not sure of spelling). He is one of the best servers we’ve had in a long time! Sadly, customer service in restaurants has deteriorated in the past few years. Shawn was enthusiastic, attentive, energetic, friendly and helpful. The food was average but the service from Shawn made it a good experience ."

"Really good tacos! We had several different varieties and all were good. Recommend the sampler of the chips and salsa/queso/guacamole. Margaritas were good as well. Great service. Highly recommend!"

"I went to Condados to eat tacos and try a new restaurant experience. Overall it felt like Taco Bell with a server. I ordered the two taco lunchbox deal with tortilla chips. A orange glazed taco and the sweet lucy. Tacos tasted like salt. Cilantro aioli lemon-lime flavor overpowered the taco. Guac tasted like salted wallpaper paste in a paper cup. Food lacks presentation. On a positive note the outdoor patio is spacious for warmer weather. Great location in Oakley square. I don't recommend Condados for those looking for Mexican or Tex-Mex food."

"I recently stumbled upon a Mexican restaurant in Cincinnati that has quickly become my absolute favorite! From the moment I entered, I was enchanted by the captivating interior design. The street-style graffiti paint adds a vibrant and authentic touch, while the intricate details, such as the patterned tables, showcase the thoughtfulness put into every aspect of the decor. While the weather was scorching outside, I opted for the cool comfort of the indoor seating area, although I couldn't help but admire the inviting terrace which I plan to explore on a more temperate day. Now, let's dive into the culinary experience! We decided to try a bowl and a taco, and I must say, they were simply amazing! The taco was a true revelation, bursting with incredible flavors. The combination of soft and crispy taco shells created a delightful textural contrast that enhanced every bite. What impressed me the most was the ingenuity behind ensuring the taco held together without falling apart. It was executed flawlessly, showcasing the skill of the kitchen staff. In addition to their outstanding food, the restaurant boasts a fully stocked bar and an enticing cocktail menu. Although I didn't have the opportunity to sample their libations this time, I am already looking forward to returning to indulge in their creative concoctions. I can't emphasize enough how much this Mexican restaurant deserves a spot at the top of your dining list. The inviting ambiance, exceptional food, and warm and attentive service combine to create an unforgettable experience. Our waiter was incredible! Not only did he provide attentive and friendly service, but he also shared a valuable tip with us. He recommended going for two tacos to feel fully satisfied. Following his advice, we ordered two tacos and one bowl for the two of us, and it turned out to be the perfect portion size. This restaurant epitomizes authentic Mexican cuisine in Cincinnati, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. Whether you're a fan of Mexican food or simply appreciate exceptional culinary experiences, I wholeheartedly recommend visiting this gem. I am eagerly counting down the days until I can savor their delicious dishes once again!"
