   Our very favorite restaurant in PV. Wood fired everything! A must is the octopus. So incredible. Nice selection of meats and seafood. Something for everyone. Our Server, Julio, was amazing. Attentive, courteous and right on top of all our needs. Don't miss this awesome spot!!

   A great meal, good service, nice variety of food and price ranges. Like the open air layout. Probably our 5th visit. We'll be back again.

   Overall it wasn’t bad, but not great. The corn soup was really great, but the ribs were just average. Doubt I’d rush back.

   Great food and ambiance - the only negative was last night they were slow to bring food out. Two tables who came in after isreceived their food before us. Those tables were finished eating by the time we received our meals. Not sure why our table was forgotten.

   The restaurant was recently criticized on FB for food service taking too long. The restaurant explained that because they cook over a wood fire, they only begin preparing food as orders come in. The quality is much better that way, and believe me, they’re right. But it appears they’ve caved to social media. Our dinner last night arrived very quickly. My husband’s pork ribs and potato wedges were stone cold. He sent his food back to be reheated. Mine was lukewarm, but I ate it anyway. My husband’s food arrived back in about 10 minutes, and he said it was very good. If this IS what’s happening, I hope the restaurant reconsiders doing this. Food in the past has always been excellent. I’d happily wait to have that wonderful experience again.

   We are locals and dine there often. Last night we have out of town guest and were quite embarrassed. It took forever to get our entrees. Once delivered they were quite good. The waiter/management did award a 15% discount which was very nice. We will be back but wanted you to know.

    Arrived for our 7pm reservation and finally got our food 2 hours later but only after threatening to leave if it wasn't served immediately. Ordered a very expensive meal which was overdone. They offered to give us a free dessert but by then I just wanted to get out of there. Won't be returning

    Service needed some refining and the cocktails were a little disappointing but, the food was spot on. Sombrero off to the chef! Perfectly cooked filet, tender lamb osso buco and the best snapper I’ve had in PV. Caesar salad, while not traditional, was also very tasty.

    I have been to Cántaro many times and love the outdoor space, friendly staff and food. On New Year’s Eve, we made a reservation and was only offered the prefixed menu for $2000 mxn per person ($100 us). Other guests were offered the option of the regular and NYE menus. The prefixed menus was disappointing, the service was not as good as it normally is, and the live entertainment was beyond annoying. I picked Cántaro because it is familiar and good but I was very disappointed and felt like we were taken for a ride paying inflated NYE prices for an inferior product while others had the option of the normal menu.

    The ambience and service was good. There were six of us and unfortunately, most of our meals were just cold/warm. I had to send back the fries that were cold. My steak was a bit tough and almost cold. Sorry, but wouldn’t go back.

    I LOVE Mexican food, one of my favorite cuisines. I saw the place on Open table and decided to give it a try. So glad I decided to give it a try. I love Calamari and I never had it prepared the way they did. That Guajillo chili sauce was to die for. I decided to try shrimp tacos in blue corn tortilla and it was exploding with flavor. Our servers Antonio and Julio were so friendly and outgoing, yet very professional. Antonio brought be a shot of Raicilla to try, it was a nice way to end a great meal. The food and service were so good that we went back the day after.

    I was seated brought a purchased water, asked for limes which not arrived 20 minutes later by he hostess I flagged down. Waiter was nonexistent. Tortilla soup which tasted like tomato soup, the only positive I have is the filet was delicious. This was my second time, first being last week where I had great service and food.

I was hot and the waiter brought out a fan and plugged it in and put it next To me. The level of customer service here is first class all the way. I can’t recommend this place enough.

    The food was just average and did not live up to all the rave reviews. The “roasted” vegetables that came with the filet mignon were barely roasted/grilled, had no char, and were still crunchy. The mashed potatoes were rather flavorless. And the filet was not tender as typically seen in a restaurant claiming to be a specialist in their grilled meats. But the waitstaff and bartenders were amazing! And it is a super cute restaurant with outdoor and indoor dining spaces.

    I had walked past this restaurant many times and mistakenly thought it was more like the tourist place next door. It is not! The food and service were top notch, and it was by far the finest filet that I've had in years of travel to PV. Our food was excellent. We will be back.

    No real vegetarian option except salad and sides. Was offered veggie fajitas as a special meal but it was all peppers and onions with a little eggplant and zucchini. Had to ask for tortillas after just eating it with a fork . The osso buco was great , per our other guest.

    Service wasn’t nearly as attentive as I’ve read elsewhere; our waiter was demonstrably new: drinks were usually delayed and then frequently brought individually for our table of two; the last round included a Coke that arrived so late, my partner had to delay our departure to consume it. The steak was fantastic, with a table side firing to finish it off, but the sides (Caesar salad; roasted’ corn in a ramekin filled with a mysterious jus; roasted vegetables that were basically a single Brussels sprout cut in half, a small Yukon gold potato, also halved, and 2-3 baby carrots; and an order of 5 roasted asparagus spears that were not fully cooked) tiny afterthoughts, overall. When the bill came, we were charged for two Cokes when we ordered one, as well as the birthday dessert flan, which was later corrected upon discussion. Not incredibly pleasant.
