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 and Indianapolis. 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.

    our first time at Nada at Nationwide, prior to a CBJ game... we enjoyed the restaurant and its food... our server was terrific, but they appeared to be understaffed, and that would be our only complaint... we look forward to returning

    We love Nada for its very authentic, scrumptious Mexican cuisine. The menu isn't huge, but doesn't need to be because every dish and side are very tasty. We love their homemade chips with the trio of sauces--mild, moderate and pretty spicy, but not too hot. Our entrees were both great and very filling: braised chicken enchilada and a chicken quesadilla...great service in a modern dining room.

    Always a great meal, Nada never disappoints. Located right across the street from the nationwide Arena, this Mexican restaurant has a simple limited menu that always works.
