Everything was delicious and the service was great. The surprising highlight was the host who sat us (curly hair). He was so genuinely friendly and hospitable and went out of his way to make us feel welcomed. Based on that interaction alone I was happy we had chosen to celebrate a special get together here. When he stopped us on our way out to again wish the birthday girl a happy birthday I was extremely impressed with his attitude. Fantastic hire on your part, and please give him a raise!

Not your everyday Tex-Mex- love the smoky flavors of the meats & seafood, and best of all the over-the-top guac. Try the mezcal watermelon margarita for a summertime treat to complement your meal.

The food is always good it’s just a bit overpriced and the portions are small. My biggest negative about this place is the seating. The tables for two are ridiculous. They are too small for the plates the food is served on. There is not enough room for the drinks and the chips and salsa. This needs to be changed.

We often eat at the Cantina. This time the experience was less enjoyable. Our table was wobbly. After asking twice, someone put a wedge under one leg. That did not stop the wobble. I eventually fixed it myself. The quality of the ground beef has decreased. It was much more course. There were SEVERAL bones in this mixture. Also, less tasty than normal. My order was delivered wrong. The fresh jalapenos were nice and hot!

Waiter kept hitting us up for drinks. Food is alright but I have other more preferred places to go for TexMex than here. We had heard several good comments from friends and wanted to try it so we did. For the distance from our home and what we had, we won't be back soon. Its OK to us

We continually had to ask the waitress for service. Not the usually service we experience there and unfortunately the continued asking for items, for your order to be taken and getting up to ask for additional drinks ruined the evening.

Made a reservation but was told we wouldn’t be seated for a while because there were no tables. Hostess said the table we were assigned had a group sit down 20 minutes prior and that they should be leaving soon. It was Cinco de Mayo so highly doubt anyone went to a Tex-Mex restaurant and finished dinner within 30 minutes. She then seated us outside when it was expected to rain and tried seating us in an area without cover. The table we requested to move to only had an umbrella over it and when the rain started pouring down, it was not sufficient to keep us dry. We finally were able to get a high top table and moved our wet food and drinks there. Half-way through dinner, a Pizza Hut delivery guy walked through the restaurant and was then ushered in the back. I personally thought the food was good but I guess not good enough for the staff? Lastly, margaritas and salsa were extremely watered down. Overall, very underwhelming evening.
