Reviews for El Jinete - Mexican Food - Tacos - Bar in Cincinnati, OH

Solid Mexican restaurant with an excellent spicy salsa. If you go, make sure to ask for it.

One star is for friendly service and nice presentation. Minus four stars because the food and drink were some of the most... mediocre I've ever had. Fish in the tacos smelled kind of fishy, less than fresh. Rice and beans had below average flavor.Cheap hot sauces on the table did not improve flavors. Pina colada was beautifully garnished with fresh fruit and umbrella, butoverly sweet and syrupy. Read more

I have had the pleasure of dining here many times. The food is always hot when served & plenty of it. I personally love their... Steak or Combo Fajitas & Chicken with Rice, Queso, Broccoli, & Mushrooms, These both come with Tortillas, Their homemade salsais outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant! Read more

Joined a few friends for a drink and dinner. There are certainly better Mexican restaurants in the world. I didn't care for... the Beef Chimichanga (get the chicken, instead). But at the price-point they cater to, this is a wonderful place and should bevisited. Not everyplace is a Mobile 5-start restaurant. But we all appreciate that these places exist, and they should be frequented. Read more

It was recommended by a Mexican friend of mine. So glad we tried it. Great food and value! Authentic, not greasy, generous... portions! Service was good, too. Recommend and will come back to try more items. Read more

The corn on the cob has become a must have when we visit, so good. We tried the Tacos Al Pastor which was really good. It has a... slight sweetness with the pineapple. I also tried the Tostada De Ceviche and will get it again. As always the salsa wasgreat. Nice atmosphere & friendly service. The portions are large. I have taken some home every time. Read more

Great place, I recommend it to all my friends … went there for a lunch meeting with my Real Estate broker and was hooked after... that!! Love their food and friendly staff. The price is very reasonable as well for what they have! Read more
