Energy, creativity, and the desire for a really great taco inspired the Nada concept. Downtown Cincinnati needed a place to go, revive, and relax after the busy pace of the metropolitan work scene. Since 2007, Nada has been delighting guests with craveable twists on the classics and border-blurring dishes inspired by food from around the globe. Nada has expanded to Columbus, Indianapolis, Nashville, and their first east coast installment in North Bethesda, MD. Each location is integrated into the local community and focuses on delivering an approachable, casual Mexican experience in a beautiful space. Snag guacamole and salsa to share, and dig in to punched-up tacos, Nada is all about great food and good times with amigos.

Had dinner for two here was placed at a wobbly table for two and a party of 16 was seated next to us in the next 10 minutes couldn’t hear/converse very much the entire night. Host offered us Fiji water as soon as we sat which turned out to be an $8 upcharge then when we ordered salsa the waiter upcharged it to the salsa sampler which was 7 instead of 3 dollars. Food was good, but have had MUCH better experiences in Nashville for $100 won’t be coming back.

Great service- place got a bit busy and know our server was covering alot, but she was friendly and accommodating. I loved how others helped out covering drinks and checking in on us. The venue is just a really unique place- have always loved the scene and feel.

We had a group of 6, so we made reservations for 8pm. We were seated about 5 minutes after 8. They were very busy, our server was handling multiple tables so we expected to wait a while. We started with drinks and appetizers. The jalapeño cornbread, ceviche and brussel sprouts. They were all amazing, especially the cornbread. It took a little longer to get our order in, but our food was hot and delicious. We will be returning and telling our friends about it!

Good afternoon Jacqueline... Thank you for choosing Nada for your recent dining experience. We were indeed very busy this past weekend however we should still hit the mark as it relates to speed of service and execution. I am very happy to know that your food and drinks were both delicious! We pride ourselves on the quality of our cuisine and I will relay your feedback to our chef team. Thank you! Adam Foster General Manager

They seemed overwhelmed after the Vandy v. Auburn game. Service was slow - especially on drinks from the bar. But the food was delish, so definitely worth the time. Just order your drink ahead of when you actually want them. The manager was working hard to help get the tables serviced.

Upon arriving for a 7:00 pm reservation which we arrived 10 minutes early the manager said we will get seated at exactly at 7;00, which we did not. Took about 46 minutes to get our food and it was cold. It was sent back to the kitchen and when we got it again it was like warm.

Nada used to be a great restaurant that I would take out of town guests. No more. The menu has changed, natural juices in drinks have changed, the salsas trio is not the same quality, etc. I would not dare drink the water there. The water bottle was dirty and things were floating in my glass. The margaritas are still good (used to have a killer Paloma on the menu) but that’s about it. There’s a reason it’s always available. Sad. I really used to love this place.

Overpriced tacos. Nothing different than mom n pop places. Power went out. Just left sitting there in the dark. No way to pay. No offer to help or resolving paying check or offered a drink while sitting in the dark. Pretty much served our selves. Found some cash. Paid. Walked out.

Food was great and server was great! We were there during a power outage which the staff was at no fault for, but the communication to us from management was very poor. We had no idea what was going on and sat in the dark figuratively and literally. It took at least 20 minutes for the manager to even come over and speak with us. I realize this is not a common occurrence but it was handled very poorly from a management aspect.

The elevated Mexican experience is gone. Menu super simplified. Guacamole is now pretty common. Tacos get cold in the new metal display. Pastor tacos no longer get roasted pineapple and taste like pulled pork. We were really disappointed.

It's just not worth it. Nothing is horrible about it, but overall it is lacking. There's no parking or valet. I tried about 4 different options, ranging from not-at-all-for-me to pretty good. Got some margaritas that just tasted all kinds of wrong. The service staff were very nice and seemed to be working hard, but they were very understaffed and therefore service was horribly slow. All in all, it isn't worth the trouble and with the prices they are charging for simple Mexican fair, the value just isn't there.

It was a little loud for my taste, but it was 7 o’clock on Saturday night. The jalapeño cheddar cornbread was savory and sweet. The Baja style mahi tacos were delicious. I would’ve liked to seen the sink in the bathroom. Be a little cleaner but overall everything was delicious and it was really nice. Great service by Hannah.

It took 20 minutes for a server to come to our table, because we were told they were having a "servers meeting" at 6pm. The food was good, but the bill was high - not from the entrees necessarily but from all the add-ons (chips/salsa charged per person and $4 for soda refills, for example).
