Hello and greetings good people. I came in for lunch today and instantly caught a positive vibe. The service was great from start to finish. The food presentation was incredibly detailed. Definitely set the bar high for Mexican cuisine in the city. Oh, before I forget, the food was tasty, fresh, and almost to pretty to eat. I highly recommend this place to all locals and visitors.

Believe ALL they hype for Me Encanta (New Mexican restaurant off Broadway) I love how spacious, colorful and modern it looks inside. The salsa was not spicy and tasted fresh. The food is considered upscale Mexican but you can find all your typical favorites like burritos, tacos, quesadillas. Today my mom ordered the tostones (fried plaintains) with pork belly as the protein. She opted to have all the toppings on the side. The guacamole portion was huge and the queso fresco was delicious! And every Latino knows that where there’s platanos there’s mayo-ketchup! The pork belly was a generous portion and I especially appreciated that it was more of the meat side than the hard skin side of pork belly. If all of it tasted good separately I can only imagine how it would taste in one bite! I can definitely see this as a crowd pleaser! I ordered the grilled chicken. It came with sauteed veggies, rice and beans. Idk what they seasoned the chicken and veggies with... but I wanted to lick the plate! I will definitely be back for this! For dessert I ordered chocoflan, perfect mix of chocolate cake on top of a flan bottom. I know it sounds like a weird mix, but it’s super satisfying to have the chocolate and caramel in one bite! My mom ordered churro carrito (17) but definitely worth it! I suggest you share this because it was too much for us. You could choose to eat your fried churro by itself, eat it with the vanilla Ice cream, or top it off (or dunk it) with one of the three sauces: a sweet fruit like jelly, melted chocolate, or my personal favorite: the sweet, thick, condensed milk that transports me right back to my childhood. And can we just get a round of applause for the plate presentation for the dessert!? Well done Me Encanta! I’ll def be back! This is not a paid review; I just love food!

Pretty damn good Mexican food. The chicken fajitas are a little bit thin on the strips of chicken. This is not a huge deal, just something I noticed. The tortillas are maybe 30 seconds undercooked. This is both a plus and a negative. Usually when you get a fresh tortilla there is a little crisp on the outside. If you take their tortillas to go with your meal it makes the tortilla perfect when you heat it on your skillet at home. The atmosphere is supes cute and trendy. I really really like this place. By far the best Mexican food I’ve had in Columbus. The only better Mexican place I have had in GA is out of a trailer in Gay, GA worth the trip though. I will say the flavors are a little watered down compared to what it could be. This isn’t a negative either..... depending on who you are. This restaurant is fantastic Tex-Mex, and well above anything else in the area.

This was a great place for Mexican near the corner of Broad and 13th! The decor was colorful and modern with a great view of some of the historic buildings near the river in the back. There was a lot of wait staff, I feel like everywhere I turned someone going to and fro. Lots of options to choose from, and everything we had was delicious and plentiful (too much so!) I'm glad to have tried this place out and I can add this to my options for places to eat downtown.

Either by design or by accident, I felt like the food was a Mexican-Mediterranean fusion! Loved it. Everything tasted fresh and healthy. The soup and the chicken bowl were both divine. Lovely atmosphere. Despite the fact that I got there after 9:30 pm, everyone was gracious and nice.

This evening, my best friend and I dined here, and it was an outstanding experience. The aesthetics, service, and food all earned a 10/10. The establishment is beautifully decorated throughout, creating a lovely atmosphere. Our server was excellent, seating us promptly. We began with the Patron margarita, Texas style, and for entrees, I had the Philly quesadillas, while my friend enjoyed the Barria tacos. Both dishes were exceptional, with perfect seasoning. The margaritas were strong and delicious. The restaurant also offers outdoor seating and flat-screen TVs. Our server frequently checked in to ensure our satisfaction. We will certainly return. Thank you for a fantastic dinner and exceptional service.

Me Encanta Modern Mexican Cuisine is a gem in Columbus! The atmosphere is stylish yet relaxed—perfect for a night out or a casual meal. The service was friendly and attentive from start to finish. The shrimp tostadas were a standout—served on three perfectly smashed plantains with just the right amount of spice. Fresh, flavorful, and unique! The birria quesadillas were rich, cheesy, and deliciously crispy, with a savory consomme that tied everything together. The menu is impressively vast, offering something for everyone, and the dessert options are just as delicious—we were tempted by more than one! We’ll definitely be back!
