Description: Nada is a contemporary Mexican restaurant in the heart of downtown Cincinnati. Located on the corner of 6th and Walnut, we are right next to the Aronoff and across from the CAC, perfect for both pre and post theatre. Nada is open for lunch five days a week, brunch on Saturday & Sunday, and dinner every night. Nada features one of downtown Cincinnati's best patios during the summer months. Inside the restaurant, you will be part of Nada's inspired and spirited design, expert service, and chef-driven cuisine. It's an experience unto itself in Cincinnati. We feel honored to have received many awards, including "Best New Restaurant" by Cincinnati Magazine. Please feel free to give us a call, we're eager to accommodate any requests you may have.

This was my third visit to Nada and it has been a consistently enjoyable place to grab a late night bite on the front patio. Good music, pleasant servers and tasty tacos and appetizers. Try the pork belly tacos and the short rib appetizer. Yes, they do charge for chips and salsa, but it's only a couple dollars. You can... More

We went here for Cinco de Mayo after the Flying Pig. They have the best chips I've ever had! We sat at the bar and moved to the restaurant downstairs so had two servers. Both were very friendly and accomodating. I had vegetarian tacos, and all the ingrediants were fresh and tasty. I'd definitely go back here.

Excellent mexican food, strong drinks, fun server, sit outside on a nice night, and not a long wait even though it was a Saturday! Thoroughly enjoyed getting together with my co-workers here after a long day of work!

Overall Nada is pretty good. The staf was good at making suggestions and following up during the meal. The food and drinks we ordered were very good. The price of the food was also good.

Kitchen stayed open to seat us late as we were coming in late from a flight. One party member ordered food they didn't realize was fried, the kitchen swaped it immediately - no questions asked! Atmosphere is excellent and the service is great. The staff are so friendly and kind!!! Great choice!

We arrived at 5:45 and were seated. We proceeded to ask our waiter to take our Happy Hour drink orders. There was stalling and then at 5:50 he announced that Happy Hour prices were over. We complained and he mentioned that the manager shut it down. Then the overpriced drinks arrived. We had to send one back and the Margarita's... More

Nada, meaning "nothing" in Spanish, is a must stop!. It is a contemporary take on Mexican Cuisine and if you are in downtown Cincinnati you should not miss this place. It also has a very nice patio. (Too cold when we were there) The tacos were flavorful and the macaroni and cheese is a must try as an appetizer. Yes,... More

The Sliders here are fantastic! they taste like the burgers at Shake shack in new york if you have ever been there. Nachos are made in house and are great! Tried 3-4 other dishes also,but the sliders are just the best! Go here!!

Will never go back! Pricing is way out of line for quality and volume of food. Would not recommend to anyone.
