La Cantina Azteca — Restaurant in Santander

Absolutely delicious, no questions. I would probably only suggest more for the price. Also, why doesn't the plate come with Mexican rice and beans? I ordered the mole poblano, or chicken mole as they called it. It came with white rice, which isn't unheard of. But most Mexican dishes almost always come with a side of Mexican rice and refried beans, and cheese all over the beans. I miss that. And if you guys decide to, please remember refried beans and chili beans are different, the normal is refried beans.

I wanted to order a michelada, but I am skeptical about the quality. Although they have an excellent quality selection of Mexican beers, I ended up getting a regular margarita. It was good, but too margaritas shouldn't be blended unless asked because it depletes from the flavor and alcohol. Most people don't realize that they must place the alcohol in before the ice. So it ended up being very sweet and very little tequila flavor. Also, I they are supposed to be sweet AND SOUR. If you can taste it sugar instead of a healthy salty & sweet balance, it's no good. I like tequila, very much 🤓

So with the exception of drinks needing a little tune up, and maybe a few menu considerations, this place is a fine hidden jewel of Santander. Probably the best Mexican food I've had living in Spain. Bravo,...

The food is exceptional. We loved the quesadillas but the enmoladas were quite something - savoury but sweet, and also a bit spicy. Definitely something worth trying. The service can be improved. One of the plates was a bit cracked and the waiter didn’t bring us cutlery until after we finished the first plate. But, the food definitely made this a positive...
