I absolutely loved this place, the chef has been very creative and is offering a menu full of authentic options that are not very frequently seen in your typical Mexican joint. I loved the presentation of the food and the atmosphere, the service was amazing, the owner made us feel like home, he greeted us when we walked in and brought us chips with 3 different types of salsa and a cute little cup made out of tortilla full of fresh refried beans with cheese on top. We ordered Tacos and the Street Corn Fries but all the other items on the menu looked amazing, we are definitely going back to try them all.

Love this place. Had a half barbacoa half pastor machete. Both were delicious. The guac is great too, chunky with lots of lime. So good. Will definitely be back

This was the first time we have eaten here and I wanted to like it so much just from how kind the owners were and the wonderful smells when you walk in, we LOVED it. It was by far the best Mexican food we have had in all of the surrounding areas and we will be making this a frequent stop!!! OUTSTANDING!!!!

I spontaneously tried Cielo Tacos while driving by tonight and I am so glad I did! I forgot to take pictures because I actually scarfed my meal down but the chips, guacamole, and carnitas tacos were all so flavorful. I love horchata and theirs is fantastic and not too sweet. While I was waiting I enjoyed looking around the nicely decorated and clean restaurant. I'm looking forward to coming back to dine in!

We tried this place based on the star rating and I can contests its legitimate. The food is great, the pricing even better. Service was fantastic with a family run vibe. The decor is not flashy but if thats what they need to do to keep the prices down and quality up, I'm here for it. Will definitely go back!

We’ve been to this restaurant a few times, and it’s always a fantastic experience! The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. The food is consistently amazing, and this time, we tried the street corn fries—they were a huge hit! We love exploring their unique and adventurous menu items, and they never disappoint. The atmosphere is so fun and inviting. One of the first things you notice when you walk in is the photo wall, which is perfect for snapping a selfie or group picture. It’s those little details that make the place stand out. We can’t wait to come back and see what other creative dishes they have to offer! Update: We came for the all you can eat buffet, and it did not disappoint. Not only was their more food variety than advertised, but the services were impeccable! I highly recommend coming in for the breakfast buffet!

Food: Admittedly, I get the grilled fish tacos almost every time I go here. So, obviously, I love them. I’ve also enjoyed the shrimp tacos & the elote fries. I would deem this good, authentic Mexican food. Silverware: Thin, clean, wrapped in a napkin. Typical cafe fork. Service: The waitresses have been attentive and friendly. Chips & bean dip basket when seated. Two salsa varieties brought to the table. Water glass was filled twice. Sometimes one waitress is in charge of takeout & tables. In this case, we’ve just had to be patient. An extra 5 minute wait for our check isn’t a big deal When Javier has served our table, he’s always sure to accommodate and let’s us know the kitchen will try and help with food preferences Bathroom: Clean. It’s a newer restaurant & the bathrooms reflect that Physical Menu: Clean. Laminated. I believe it will be updated soon to reflect the new items Note: Some of the menu items are in Spanish (with no English explanations). Just ask the server, if you have questions. Also, you may not specifically see veggie tacos or veggie burrito on the menu, but they can make them (our table guest had one & enjoyed it) Overall Cleanliness & Atmosphere: Very clean, very bright, almost stark? That doesn’t bother me at all. I’d rather have a place starkly decorated than have dusty decorations. If there was one complaint, it would be that the TV audio is competing with the overhead music—which can have some loud commercials at times. Would I go back? Yes! I’ve met friends here & taken my family here. All have enjoyed their meals.

Cielo tacos is more than tacos they had menudo and it was so tasty and flavorful! Their tacos were so delicious and fresh, i got skirt steak ones (small tortilla) I got El Bebe drink which is a non alcoholic topochico with clamato, lime and chile Pequin. I loved the place is so cute and photogenic and clean! A gem in Plano, IL. Plus, its very affordable.
