“This was a great place for authentic Mexican food. I rate restaurants not on how fancy they are but on several factors. It starts with chips and salsa, then basic items like tacos (steak/al pastor), then enchiladas. I had tacos (steak, pastor and chile relleno). All were great. Of course service and cleanliness is essential. I highly recommend this place.“
“The looks of the restaurant is down home Cafe style. Nothing fancy or over decorated. It has an extensive menu. The food we ordered was great! Our dishes were definitely reminiscent of Mexico. The service was great. Couldn't ask for a better server. It's a little high on cost, but its genuine. Definitely will be going back.“
“This cantina is not your typical Mexican eatery, at least based on my experience SO FAR. The flavors of my taco salad were mild and creamy, delicious layers of refritos, rice, tender chicken, salad, and topped with a fresh guacamole and sour cream in a freshly fried tortilla bowl. I will be back to taste the steak tacos, burritos, and enchiladas on the menu! To drink, I had a generous mug of a wonderful non-alcoholic "cucumber limeade".I have seen this place hopping almost every time I drive by, but I was there early Sunday afternoon and it was a chill atmosphere (with a steady stream of take-out customers. )You order and pay at the counter as you enter before you sit down, but the experience was like a restaurant after that, with chips and sauces, an attentive waitress, etc. I rather liked being able to just go when I finished without waiting for a bill and payment.Try this place if you want to try something a little different in Mexican cuisine!“
“We had Cactus Grill cater a dinner for about 25 people at a local venue. The food was amazing! We got chicken, beef and veggie trays for tacos and a huge pan of guacamole and chips. People kept saying how delicious it was. The tray of Elotes was especially yummy. Everything arrived on time and hot. Great food, Great service!Dietary restrictions: They worked with me to find gluten free and vegetarian options.“
“Service = It was above average...Ambience= Festive, roomy, decorative...Food = Avg...My burrito came out cold...I would have mentioned it, but due to time constraints, I had to keep it moving...It was half steak and half chicken tinga ...The chicken tinga was not spicy at all...Chips were good, but not a fan of the salsa that came with it...The rice that came with the burrito, IMO avg at best ...“
“This is my partner and I’d favorite place. We love the food and we love Paco (the owner). His creations are a stellar reimagining of the traditional Mexican dishes that we all love.All the dishes are not only Paco’s artworks, they come from love.Will always be this restaurant’s biggest.“
