I was always told that mentiroso is not as strong as calling someone a liar in English; it is more playful and not as much of an insult.

Only if it's not used in a serious context. If you call someone you're not friends with 'mentiroso', he won't be happy. I can tell you that much. - bill1111, Dec 30, 2010

Often it is used playfully, however, it definately can be an insult of used seriously.
