We tried again tonight because we’ve enjoyed the food in the past but have been less than impressed with the service. The staff is very friendly but definitely move at their own pace even when customers are waiting in a crowd at the door. We were told it would be a 15 minute wait and waited over 30 while seeing no less than 5 empty, available tables including two 6 tops. No sense of urgency on the part of the staff while customers stand and fume! After being seated, our order was taken and we were served quickly but never got the chips and bean dip we’ve had in the past. Our carnitas burritos were as good as usual but can’t quite get past the service issues.

Watery beans, flavorless rice, fish tacos that were possibly fish sticks. Waitresses were nice and service was good. Wish I could say the same about the food!

The new location is awesome! There’s a lot more space. I love the options to go and get your own types of salsa and the chips come with free bean dip! Margaritas are good, good is good, pork green chile is great! 5 stars for a Mexican restaurant in Greeley!

The portions are generous, the service was good. I think the dinners are heated in a microwave. The food was just warm and the plates were cool. We will try one more time to see if we just got a bad night.

This place is the real deal for authentic Mexican food. I’ve been to El Cielo several times and I’ve always had a great experience. The food brings me back to when I lived in a South Texas border town. It’s rare to come across real authentic Mexican food. And to have it right here in Greeley and also in Loveland. The owner is awesome. I guarantee If you don’t see him at the 10th street location, he is at the Loveland location. The thing I enjoy most is he is genuine. He doesn’t just stop by and do the BS talk of ‘how was everything,’ he is genuine and connects with all guests. Being financially focused, I’m selective where my money goes. I’m more than happy to spend my money here. Give it a try. You will be impressed!

Went there last week with a ravenous appetite and excited to try a new place! Ordered the grilled steak; over-cooked to the extent that I couldn’t even chew, let alone swallow it, plus my bean and rice was cold. Sent it back, ordered the grilled chicken, much better, yet refried beans was like soup. Too bad for me, I was starving. The salsa and bean dip was good. My boyfriend ordered a beef burrito. The ground beef tasted strange. Now, I’m from CA and know about authentic Mexican food… I was disappointed. Still looking for a good, authentic Mexican restaurant. It can be a hole in the wall; I don’t care, just give me the authenticity! Having Menudo a must!

One of our favorite restaurants! Food is great, servers are friendly, love the new location, much roomier than the old one. The chicken flauta’s are my favorite and the chips and beans while you wait are the best!

Worst food ever. You can judge a Mexican restaurant best by simply having a taco in my opinion. Literally ZERO flavor in the ground beef. Tasted like it was cooked in boiling water. Having been a chef most of my life I don’t know a single line cook, chef, owner, manager or anyone else who would serve that. I asked why it looked as it someone had soaked my taco in water, the response, that’s not water. So I looked at him, waiting for the rest of his response. He looked at me as if waiting to be excused from my table. Not to mention the bus boy who wiped a table down, swept a knife from under the table then used the knife to attempt to wipe a crumb off the table he just cleaned. I know we are in Greely but come on, step it up just a little, where’s your pride?

Nasty mix margaritas with very little alcohol. Very slow service and extremely long wait for food, that wasn’t great.

We went last night with a party of 7. We started eating the complementary bean dip and immediately found a hair in it! The crazy thing was when we pointed it out to the waitress she just said«oh yeah there it is, are you ready to order?» That unconcerned attitude was consistent throughout the entire meal. Someone ordered fajitas and it didn’t come with all these sides and the waitress acted annoyed when they asked for them. I ordered a chile relleno and it tasted like bleach. I complained and sent it back. When we got the ticket they had only taken half the price of the meal off the ticket. When I asked why she explained that half of the other food on the plate had been eaten. I did have a couple of bites of the beans before trying the chile relleno but definitely not half. It was just horrible customer service all around, and the place seemed very unsanitary.

Great food. Great service! This isn’t your typical chain restaurant, so if that’s what you want, go to Chili’s across the way. El Cielo has great food, an authentic atmospere and decent drinks. Their new location is a lot of fun. Greeley is a great place to live… and this place only adds to my love of Greeley!

Food was ok, nothing special. Salsa bar fell way short of expectations, but what really hurt was the terrible service. It was probably the worst all around service I have had anywhere. The staff couldn’t care less they had a party of 8… I would not recommend this place, there is far better Mexican food in Greeley, with better service.

If you want to wait around for about an hour for mediocre Mexican food go to EL Cielo. You’ll walk in, have someone look blankly at you until you tell them the number of people in your party then be told you’ll only have to wait about 10 minutes. In my case, I placed a to go order, was told the wait would be thirty minutes. After an hour, I asked if they could check on my order and the server brought me my food freezing cold. Watered down flavorless beans, tough carne asada and under seasoned guac. This place is NOT the place to be!

They’ve moved across the street to 364510th St. where the old Flamingo Liquors used to be. Last night, the dinner crowd was hopping! Old timer ranchers, singles, Hispanic families, multi-generational gringo families, oil field trash(hey! it’s a compliment!) and others obviously enjoying themselves and the food. And dang it, the food is good. Nothing gourmet here, but it’s solid fare at fair price points. Over a dozen gracious young ladies working the 2 spacious rooms, each one of them with a lovely smile that just made this joint all the more special!

Tasty, affordable place to grab some typical Colorado-style Mexican food. Menu has a good variety of dishes that are reasonably priced. Green chili(with the usual orange color) comes in hot, medium or mild – the hot isn’t too challenging. There is a slight uniqueness to the flavor, though. The service was friendly & lightning fast. Breakfast: The chicharron burrito was very good, with a crunchy but yielding texture. The meal started off with chips & smooth refried beans, a nice change. I’d eat here again.

I got tacos with different meats, but they were all the same. They didn’t taste good so I mostly threw them out. The salsa bar was not good either, and kind of scared me. I was actually happy to leave this place. On the positive side, the fajitas my wife ordered were pretty good. So I would recommend doing that.

Great food and service. Authentic Mexican good! Salsa bar had a variety of sauces. I would recommend this resturant again.
