Las cremas están muy buenas, está vez pedí pollo a las finas yerbas y no tenía sabor a nada, solo a pechuga de pollo sin sal a la plancha, no la recomiendo, el resto de la carta se ve bien, habrá que probar. En cuanto al lugar es muy cómodo y el ambiente es bueno al igual que el servicio.

Excelente! Delicioso! Rápido servicio, Personal atento y amable. Instalaciones limpias, baños limpios y bien presentables. La salsa deliciosa, las comida calientita y muy rica. Hasta la limonada es de lo mejor, y pensarán que no tiene chiste la limonada pero sí y la de cielito lindo esta en el punto exacto. Me encantó la experiencia. Felicidades a todo el personal. Ah y otra cosa en la que me fijo mucho es el ambiente, la música muy bien, muy adecuada al lugar (música instrumental mexicana) y con un volumen medio. No que otros lugares que tienen regaeton o banda a todo volumen que no puedes ni escuchar tus pensamientos. Reitero mis felicitaciones.

Riquísimas las enchiladas de mole , solo lo que no me gustó fue la sangría preparada, le faltaba más sabor, pero fuera de eso todo excelente

El restaurante cuenta con estacionamiento amplio y con espacios disponibles para discapacitados. Por otro lado, el ambiente es muy bueno, la presentación de la comida muy buena y destaco el servicio, de primera el mesero sumamente amable. El sabor de la comida puede mejorar sustancialmente, sin embargo, la salsa roja de buen sabor. El ambiente es muy adecuado para charlar y desayunar. Las tostadas/totopos/chips muy buenos. Ordené comida para 2 personas.

La comida tiene buen sabor, temperatura adecuada y preparada con ingredientes de calidad, el servicio se siente bueno, el mesero un tanto ausente con falta de estar al pendiente y distraído con la orden y necesidad del comensal. Nota importante, ya no se llama Cielito Lindo, desde hace 3 años es "El Capricho del Cielo" Tiene dos salones, el del lado derecho se siente como estar en salón de fiestas, un poco frío pero funcional. El del lado izquierdo, que estaba cerrado, se ve más acogedor.
