Cielo Mexican Restaurant: Explore Authentic Flavors in Braintree

Decided to give Cielo a try from a coupon received in the mail. When I arrived the place was packed and sat at the bar. The drinks were amazing to start. I ordered the chicken Taquitos and Steak Fajitas. The food was great. Real, authentic Mexican food I’ve been craving since moving to Mass. I’d recommend Cielo to anyone.

Cielo Mexican Restaurant is a small, welcoming spot that truly delivers on every front. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with both indoor and outdoor seating available — perfect for any kind of dining experience. The food and drinks were absolutely amazing — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really tell they care about quality here. A special shoutout to our waiter, Yannis, who was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. His service was outstanding and added so much to our experience. If I’m ever back in town, Cielo will definitely be on my list to revisit. Highly recommend!

Very good customer service I had the shrimp taco. I have to say that the shrimp was well seasoned. Was a nice bite of delight. For dessert I had the churros they were very good with the blackberry ice were a very good combination..

I wish I could give more than 5/5. The food is amazing but the service is even better!! The waiters, bartender and owner are very friendly! For years I’ve been looking for authentic Mexican food in MA. Cielo checks all the boxes! Definitely recommend given it a try for your next date night!

This place need some love. They got good food, good servers, bartender on the other hand cheat on the drinks... I asked for a Jameson ice and soda water and got some weird tasting drink... I sent back and got the right stuff. They need some good music and someone smarter sitting people. Is not right for a table of 2 people sat at table set for 4 ppl and have the party of 4 waiting at the door when you had plenty of tables set for 2 ppl. There was no manager presence. I think they can do much better with someone giving some directions.

Great food including their complimentary nachos/salsa. The only complaint was the service, we had to call our server several times to get his attention. Also when we asked the price for guacamole (it says market price on the menu) our server said 10 bucks- we found out later (receipt) it was actually $13. Not a big deal (we enjoyed the guac) but I think he should give/know the accurate price. That being said, we’ll be back to try other items on the menu!

We were craving Tex Mex and Cielo has good reviews so we decided to try it. Walking in, I was surprised by how small the dining room actually is. There were quite a few people waiting for tables, so it definitely feels like a local favorite, but the space is tight. Once we were seated, it was comfortable and clean. I have to get the one negative out of the way first. The complimentary chips are those round, bagged ones that taste a bit stale. It is a letdown. And made us question all the good reviews. We decided not to order queso or guacamole because I didn't want to waste good dip on bad chips. Luckily the main courses were a completely different story. I ordered the carnitas tacos on corn tortillas and the meat was fantastic. The mole enchiladas were also a hit. The chicken was moist and the mole sauce had a really distinct tangy flavor that I enjoyed. Both plates came with rice and refried black beans. The beans are served in a cute little crispy tortilla bowl with a slice of fried plantain, but the rice was the winner. Service was top notch throughout the meal. Our server was attentive without hovering and very friendly. If they swapped out those chips for something fresh, this place would be unstoppable.

My wife and I stopped at the restaurant, that was my first time.... The food was very good I recommend this Mexican place.... We enjoyed
