Cielito Linda never disappoints. Food is always amazing, as-is the service. And the outdoor patio rounds out the experience. Not sure what to order? The specials are always fantastic, but the molcajete is absolutely amazing! Started off with the ceviche this time, as well.

Amazing presentation of Appetizers and Entrees. Not many Mexican places do fajitas like here! Carne Asada had a wonderful assortment of vegetables and mushrooms on a sizzling skillet. Tortillas and chips fresh with spicy dipping sauces. Hands on owner came to the table personally to greet us. Friendly staff and the decor inside is to be enjoyed.

We wanted to like this place. We really did. We drove for thirty minutes because we thought it would be good. We went there specifically for Mariachi night and there was no mariachi (which, fine, is not the restaurant's fault). I will say that at least the ambience is nice, and the music is not too loud, and it all looked clean. However, we waited for AN HOUR after the server came to take our order and we only got water and a single platter of chips and salsa, while tables around us got their dishes even though they had come in after us. Our server came by to check on us maybe twice, once to get us more water and once to take away the empty platter of chips, which never got refilled nor were we asked if we wanted more. We didn't even order anything complicated, just cochinita pibil and birria, which I assume are made in bulk and then served, so it is unacceptable for it to take a whole hour. We just walked out, disappointed and hungry. I don't think we'll come back.

Worth a little drive to Medford for a solid Mexican meal. Good service. Brought a flask of tequila to put into my virgin margarita. Lots of leftovers from large portion entrees. Fresh guacamole. We've been here before; we'll be back again.
