I have 9 COMPLAINING issues with this restaurant!

1. They don't sell Horchata! What Authentic Mexican restaurant doesn't sell Horchata!? NONE! They ALL sell it!!!

2. ALL of their non-alcoholic drinks are CARBONATED!? So much for the young children eating there!!!

3. They don't add LIME with their meals. Sad.

4. ALL of their food is BLAND and FLAVORLESS. I repeat NOT REAL MEXICAN FOOD.

5. They charge extra for chips and salsa (also horrible) and carbonated fountain drinks. NOT worth your MONEY!!!

6. PRICES are RIDICULOUS!!!!!!! I know refried beans, rice, lettuce, tomato, and skirt steak don't cost no freaking $15.00 a plate!!!!!!

7. The ONLY free drink, water, is also horrible!!! It had a nasty aftertaste like they don't believe in filtration!

8. Staff was unattentative. I had to ask for napkins and water at least 3 times. When we had another question, she walked away before we spoke!!! Just plain WRONG!!!

9. The music was NOT authentic AT ALL!!! Sounded like white-based alternative rock music sung in Spanish. NOT GOOD MUSIC AT ALL!!!

I have forewarn you about this imposter of a restaurant. I hope you find something better than this garbage! I will NEVER eat at CILANTROS EVER, EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

You can't find a better place for authentic Mexican food! The owner is terrific and quite personable. The restaurant is decorated perfectly with an outdoor garden eating area! On the weekends it will be busy so be prepared to wait maybe a half hour but it is well worth it! I think the wait just backs up my thoughts on the place! The BEST of the BEST!!!
