This is defintiely one of the better spots in Oak Ridge to have good and well priced Mexican food.
We arrived during lunch time it was somewhat busy. We were immediately greeted and seated at a booth. The meal comes with complementary chips and salsa. The salsa is not spicy but has a good flavor.
Our waiter was very friendly and efficient. We ordered a soft taco with beef, taquitos and sopapillas. The main dishes were good and tasted fresh sn were seasoned well. The soapapilla was not what I expected since traditionally we have had them on softer fluffier bread with cinnamon sugar.
I asked the waiter about spicier salsas and sauces. He did bring out a green Chile Verde which was not spicy but tasted okay and also a red Barria sauce that had some spice and what seemed to be cabbage. I appreciated most our waiters patient demeanor and willingness to accommodate.
Overall I definitely would return for another meal at this Mexican resturant.
I do want to offer a few suggestions as well. The bathroom was clean and well stocked, but the hot temperature of the water at the sink was to the level that I felt it could burn someone like a small child. And, while we were dining my child was using a booster. Before we even received the check another employee asked if they could have the booster for another table. I found this to be rude and that my child should have access to the seat for the entirety...
Read moreIf you're familiar with Oak Ridge at all, I went to Cancun for lunch on a Friday at 12:30 and there were only three other tables in use, however this didn't bother me at all as the plant staff is usually off on Fridays. Was seated right away and had the standard chips and salsa on the table before I could even get comfortable. The salsa was some of the best I've had at a restaurant in quite some time, seems like there's may have been a pinch of sugar added but just enough to cut the acid from the tomatoes. My server came around, and I ordered the lunch portion chicken chimichanga with grilled jalapeños inside. I try to order the same thing at the Mexican restaurants for my first time for comparison. I would say this is an average sized chicken chimichanga, but what really set it apart is that it seemed like instead of grilling the jalapeños and adding them into the chimichunga they grilled them, then added them to the chicken to finish cooking as the flavor from the jalapeño was throughout the entire chimichunga, and it was amazing. It, of course, came with the usual rice, lettuce, Pico de gallo, refried beans, a small amount of shredded cheese, guac, and a generous portion of queso blanco covering the chimichanga. All in all, Cancun Mexican Grill and Bar #3 is an excellent choice for a quick, excellently priced ($10.95 with water, before tip) lunch in the...
Read moreIt is with regret that I must express my dissatisfaction with my recent dining experience at your establishment. While the prices were reasonable and the service was commendable, the quality of the food was severely lacking.
The beef fajita I ordered was unacceptably tough and chewy, rendering it difficult to consume. My husband's hard-shell tacos were not properly heated and were stale, while the beans and rice were both cold and dry.
Despite our complaints, our waiter was courteous and attempted to rectify the situation by providing me with a chicken fajita as an alternative. However, this dish also proved to be disappointing, as it lacked flavor and was overcooked.
Regrettably, based on this experience, we will not be returning to your restaurant...
