After eating here many times, I like that they now offer Aguas Frescas. One thing I really wish for La Cantina is to partner with locally owned Paleteria "La Real Michoacana" with using their Aguas Frescas & Licuados for the customers as there have been other restaurants in the past that has done this such as Tacos La Shula. They offer Horchata, Strawberry, and Pina Colada which are the Licuados(with the milk in the fruit drinks). It is necessary to enhance the restaurant with more drink options such as these to make the restaurant feel more Tex-Mex. Lighting can use more of an upgrade to make it more bright as it is currently dark. Needs to be more employees checking on their customers as the wait for my waiter for order taking and other services has increased in time. Basically, needs more employees. Overall, everything was great but I wish La Cantina can use these changes to help modernize their restaurant to become more as a Tex-Mex restaurant with partnering with La Real Michoacana restaurant for their Licuados, improving the lights inside the building for brightness because it feels dark while sitting at tables, and improving food-quality as the taste of the food can get old/usual if I eat at La Cantina everyday. So hopefully these changes can happen.

First time eating here and I'm not impressed. Food is very bland, no flavor, no seasoning. We got the Polo Loco, it had wayyy too much cheese and very greasy. Tried the house frozen margarita and ewwwfff not one hint of lime, the margarita was white and no flavor at all. My first margarita in all my years that I sent back. The waiter (his name started w/a T) was friendly, didn't bring us a glass of water the entire time we were there, spoke broken English and it wasn't good. Fernando the bus boy was very nice and so helpful, spoke broken English, but we could understand him. This establishment was very clean and atmosphere was great. You can get an ice cream cone on your way out and that tasted as it should. If you want bland food with no flavor this is your place. Go next door better tasting food and margaritas!!! I'm sorry, but we will not be back.

Ordered from the lunch menu and the kids menu. Restaurant was clean and staff was fast. Wasn't busy on a Wednesday afternoon. I had the 2 chicken enchilada plate, which was served with refried beans, rice, and a small tortilla bowl of queso cheese. The chicken was good, not over cooked and dry, and the Spanish rice and beans were wonderful. The enchilada sauce was good, not spicy. The burger and fries were standard fare and my son said they're very good. The buns in particular looked very good and he devoured his fries. The chips served before the meals were very good and the green sauce was delicious. The red salsa was typical for a Mexican restaurant, not too spicy. Overall, I look forward to coming back and getting something off their full menu, the shrimp items sounded very good 😊. Highly recommended 👍

First time attending. Went because TWO separate clients on the SAME day mentioned this restaurant. There were several sections with space but we were in an area with plastic barriers above benches, but did not extend very high for protection in air. People, including us, were NOT spaced accordingly and instead at every table. Kids were also allowed to play unattended at the ice cream machine without masks and touch all over everything in that area, including the cones. Frozen drinks were NOT frozen so for a non-drinker like myself, the liquid un-frozen margarita was a waste because I couldn't drink it. Staff was friendly and food was tasty. Loved the Verde dip. Husband LOVED his steak and shrimp.

My family and myself have been eating here for 10+ yrs. I usually get one of the enchilada dinners or the chimichanga meal. But then they came out with their Beer Battered fried shrimp tacos...omg if i died while eating these things, I would count that as a good death because they are that good. They sell them in a count of 2 or 3 Ala Cart...don't order 3 unless u plan on bringing one home, I promise you can't eat more than 2 at the table, they are that huge. Anyway they offer a side off rice and beans for $1.99 extra and that is what I get. I also love their flavored margaritas, tried the watermelon this time since it was my birthday and it was a new flavor, mango is my normal go to.

Update: Everything was great, including service. We were asked several times by our waiter and another gentleman what else we needed. The service was great and the waiters were about business! The food and drinks were good as always and prices are totally reasonable. First visit a year ago: The food and drinks were great. Prices are good. Service was just okay but probably appropriate for the prices there. Next time I will just point at what I want and not change anything about my order. The server and I had a language barrier, which caused my order to be incorrect, even the second time. But it was still good.
