    Entry way

    I will start by saying I'm not a huge Mexican food lover, but I can find a burrito fixed my way in most. But, I will say, Cantina Del Sol was a really huge surprise while passing through Tupelo. They have a lunch buffet to rival any buffet anywhere. They have it all, from quesadillas to all kinds of meats, salads, fruits, deserts and much more. It was amazing, and I know those who know me are just as shocked I'm saying that. It's big, open, clean, and a very cool setup. And the waiters and waitresses keep your drinks filled up. Stop in it's worth it!

    Waiter was awesome. Food was really good and drinks were great. I'd give it 10 stars if I could, and it was right next to our hotel.

    Chorizo street tacos

    Over an hour drive from Columbus MS but food and experience was worth it. Love the chip salsas in individual plates, guacamole loaded was a little hot but ask for no/light jalapeno and you will want more. Very light and clean inside - not like most places that pack you in.

    While traveling on a recent work trip we decided to stop for a late lunch. Craving some Mexican food and this option had the best reviews. For good reasons it turned out. Even though it was towards the end of the lunch rush the dining area was surprisingly clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful answering our questions. My dish had the best poblano sauce I've ever tasted. Portion size was plentiful and reasonably priced.

    Keto tacos

    Fun atmosphere with lots of open space and tables! Keto tacos were delicious! Service was amazing! Gabriel took care of us, checked in and made great recommendations! When he says the goodbye margarita is as big as a basketball he is not exaggerating! If I could give 10 stars I would.

    I have friends who live in Oaxaca, in Mexico. Cantina Del Sol is EXACTLY like a restaurant in Oaxaca, Guanajuato, San Miguel De Allende or Mexico City. The restaurant, staff, food etc is superb! This is NOT Tex-Mex! This is excellent TRUE Mexican cuisine! Everything is absolutely perfect! Please do yourself a huge favor & discover what true Mexican food & hospitality really is! It's NOT what we are most familiar with in Mississippi! It's Cantina Del Sol's experience! Bravo!!!!!

    All of the dips
    Dylan R.

    Really great Mexican food. We had all of the dips and they were all very good. The guacamole was very fresh and extra thick. I would definitely get this again. The queso con carne was also very good. We all had different variations on the street tacos which every enjoyed. The barbacoa tacos were fantastic. The staff was attentive and the food came out quick. They also have a self serve ice cream and churro bar for dessert. Definitely a great spot to grab some authentic Mexican food.

    I understand that sometimes restaurants have "off" days or something but this is the worst sushi…read moreI've ever had. It was totally bland and literally falling apart when I dipped it in yum yum sauce. The worst part - it was like 90% rice?? To charge almost $10 for a basic roll that barely had any filling in it is such a scam. AND it took over 30 minutes to get our food for it to come out so poorly put together? Maybe online orders were hot today but they only had 3 tables come in after us so they didn't appear to be busy at all. The only positive thing I can add is that the staff was nice and the place was clean.

    Wife wanted to try this place out since we had appt in Tupelo. Small place with the rock and roll…read moreatmosphere. Guitars , bass's and more on the walls. Food was great she got salmon roll and o got hibachi bowl Allison's with pot stickers. I love that it's cooked in the Kikoman sauce which made it good.the girl that was helping us was on top of it as surprisingly it wasn't to. Just for lunch. Only down side is the music is loud so we had to talk up a little to speak to each other. Other than that we will eat there again.

    I haven't been to a Red Lobster in years. This use to be the go to spot for crab legs. There are…read morenow so many new options for crab, they hardly come to mind. But, their food is still good. The shrimp scampi, coconut shrimp, and crispy dragon shrimp were on point. Along with the biscuits, I was carried back to ole good times. The salad was delicious too. The prices have definitely changed! The service was great at this particular establishment. My knock was the building itself. It needs a remodel. You step in, and it feels old and dank. It smells in the foyer. It just wasn't inviting. I almost had the unction to turn around and go somewhere else. I'm glad I didn't allow the entrance to turn me around, but it was close. Hold your nose, and come in. Ole Red has still got it!

    This is an honest review from the day we went on 10/10/22 to celebrate a special occasion. There…read morewere five of us and we arrived right around 3:30 PM. It wasn't very busy at all. Three of us ordered the "Ultimate Endless Shrimp", one a child's meal, and the other fresh trout. From the start the server wasn't too pleased with us, from what I gathered, but it continued on throughout the meal. When you're out celebrating a special occasion with loved ones, you kinda want to enjoy it and have it be memorable. Right? The food took about an hour to arrive, and again, it really was not bush at all. We did get some biscuits, and we did request more, but those didn't show up until after the food finally arrived. Once I finished my initial two servings of shrimp, one was the scampi with bacon/Parmesan and the other was the Walt's favorite, and my Brussels sprouts, when or server came back through about 10 minutes after I was done...she asked if anyone wanted more shrimp. When I began to rattle off two or three different types, she said "it's only one order at a time". Huh? I've been going for the Endless Shrimp promotion for years, easily over a decade, and usually when the server knows/recognizes that you are going to eat more than a single refill or two, they generally offer up the suggestion themselves to bring 2-3 (or more) orders at a time. I've never been denied more than two orders placed at a time on refills. Never. The long story condensed. I went to RL specifically for the Endless Shrimp. We were there from 3:30 to 6:00 PM, and aside from my Brussels sprouts, two biscuits, and the water I drank, I ate a total of 65 shrimp or various recipes. That was my meal, and I'm a big eater, and had been looking forward to partaking in the many scrimps for several weeks, just as in years past. It's nothing for me to put away 100-150 individual shrimp(s). To have to wait and ONLY be permitted to have one refill order at a time, it was a little ridiculous, and obviously they're trying to dissuade people from actually having "Endless shrimp". In 2.5 hours, you should be able to eat more than 65, if that's your thing, especially when all you have to eat aside from the shrimp are two biscuits and a small plate of Brussels sprouts. Right? Overall, this experience this year leaves me with no desire to revisit Red Lobster again any time soon. Definitely not the Tupelo, MS location. When you have an empty restaurant and a family trying to celebrate, why make it an unpleasant experience by being slow and denying a man some scrimps?! I'm sure RL won't ever reach out, but $104 plus tip isn't exactly a drop in the bucket, and I was made to feel like I was a nuisance to the employees there. If they do reach out then I may revise this from a one star to two or three. Overall I didn't feel welcome, I didn't genuinely get to partake in "Endless" shrimp, mainly because I didn't have all night to sit there. 2.5 hours was long enough, and in all reality, in that amount of time a person could eat 150-300 shrimp, if they chose to. Thank you.
