This is my very favorite restaurant in Arizona! We love eating here as a family. Management always comes out and checks on us. They have the very best chips, queso, and salsa I have ever had. read more

We enjoy coming here for a meal. We've enjoyed everything we've ordered. Karol served us today and she was pleasant and attentive!

This outpost of Catina Gueros services up some great food in a relax, laidback atmosphere. Just keep the tequila coming. LOL We found the service to be first rate and the prices seem fair. We've tried almost everything on the menu and since family live nearby, it's become an easy destination after a movie or a shopping trip. We particularly like their large Chimichangas. They're the size of your forearm. No joke. Look at my photos. The meat queso is also another easy choice. One of these days we'll need to try the desserts. Expect to pay thirty-five each depending on how thirsty and hungry you are. Five Stars. read more

My father and I have visited this place 2 times in the last 3 months and we sat at the bar for 10 minutes both times with out being recognized or greeted. It's also looked rather empty when we visited around lunch time. This place doesn't understand customer service. I can't speak for their food or drinks, as We were never helped-- but be prepared to wait quite a while. read more

We were recommended this restaurant by the resort we were staying at. Glad we tried it out. The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. The restaurant has a lot of seating areas and has a good music selection in rotation. We tried the carnitas burrito and it was okay the sauce was not very tasty but the carnitas and beans were good. We also tried the tacos (fried fish, al diablo shrimp, carnitas and barbacoa). All of the tacos were delicious!! On the smaller side for the price but delicious. The horchata was also very good, the cinnamon on top was a great extra addition. The only thing we did not enjoy was the chips and salsa, the chips were extremely salty and the salsa was not spicy but had good flavor. I would definitely be back. read more

We had stopped by after my nieces winter musical performance at school. The ramen posole sounded interesting but was a complete bust. Nothing about it made me ever want to order it again. Maybe the posole on its own might be slightly better but even then. Nothing about it left anything to be desired. Everyone else's food looked okay. The waitress we had forgot to put in my husbands order so she brought out complimentary guacamole for the mishap. Nothing about our visit screamed omg we have to return! Which was unfortunate because we had friends who enjoyed it a couple years ago when they came out to visit. But just didn't do anything for us. read more

Cantina Gueros - Ramen posole...def won't get again - Mexican Near Me - Peoria, Arizona

The good and the bad: The server was awesome and friendly. The pineapple salsa was unique and tasty. The bad news - my fajitas were a disaster. The pepper/onion vegetables were limp and very overcooked making the meal unappealing, plus they were kind of soupy and watery, which makes me wonder if they were frozen instead of fresh. There wasn't enough rice and beans to make more than two very small soft tacos. I should have sent the entire meal back but we were with friends so I ate it anyway. I will reconsider eating there again. For the price of our meals and drinks, it should been much better. read more

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants! The pineapple salsa is amazing. Recently I tried the prickly pear margarita and it was delicious! The food is always good! read more

We were greeted by friendly faces. The ambiance was super cool, I love the colors and the music. The food was good and the chips and salsa were tasty not spicy at all. I had a carne asada taco and the corn bread in queso. The taco was decent not bad good flavor.. The corn bread had good flavor but too much queso on the bottom. I would prefer it on the side. It's still a great spot and I would be back. read more

Close to the house , thought it would be a good bet. But..... I was wrong. Tequila Lime Chicken Tacos is what i ordered. Very mediocre at best. Asked for jalapeños, was brought out on the side. Charged $1.00 for each Taco. I have never been charged for Jalapeños at any other Mexican Restaurant I have been to. The Margaritas were very mediocre also. Service was good and the bar help was friendly. The restaurant was cool looking . Many Mexican restaurants to choose from here in Peoria area. I will choose another one other than this one next time I am in town read more

We had a great late dinner last night after a long day of work and errands after work. We saw a sign out front saying this was voted best Mexican food in the area and decided to give it a try. We had the sweetest waitress and she even brought us a bowl of her favorite salsa, the green pineapple habanero, along with the traditional complementary salsa that they serve with chips. I loved both the traditional salsa and this interesting sweet and spicy salsa. We ordered: - #7 ONE BARBACOA ENCHILADA, TWO TACOS (BAJA STYLE PESCADO, BARBACOA) I chose a double serving of black beans instead of pinto beans and rice. The fish taco was really good. Choose if you'd like a grilled or fried. I chose grilled. I'd come back and get this again. The Barbacoa was OK. I did eat both the taco and enchilada and some of the beans. Maybe a little salty but really hit the spot. - FAJITAS SERVED W/ SPANISH RICE Y BEANS Y FLOUR TORTILLAS CARNE ASADA. Hubs said it was pretty good and ate everything. - BAJA STYLE PESCADO GRILLED OR FRIED WHITE FISH, CABBAGE, CHIPOTLE AIOLI, CILANTRO. Hubs also really liked this. He got his fish fried while I got mine grilled. There are lots of tables and booths divided into three sections inside the restaurant, plus a bar area. When we were there on Monday night, they had Monday night football on with the volume up and a lot of football fans were in there, enjoying the game. Men's and women's restroom located inside for customers read more

Carol was so amazing! We love this place! Love the food, atmosphere and location! Carol and Chris are always so welcoming and friendly and go above and beyond to make our visit amazing! You guys are the best! Thank you Carol for your service and your kindness! read more

Chris is honestly the best bartender I met. So attentive! Yeah would come back again just for his service

Aside from the locally owned and great drinks (adult beverages such as margaritas), there's not a ton of positive here. The overall look is "eh" and the food is not worth the price. In fact for Mexican food which is usually in the less expensive category, I feel like it's not just overpriced but some of the options for food are just not good choices, example I don't think black beans are universally liked and I wish they'd change some menu item ingredients. The day of the dead decor is fine but not really special. And the service is fine but nothing ti write home about. I honestly would just choose to go elsewhere and that's a bummer cause I like some of the other stuff this owner has. This is honestly an opinion I hear from pretty much everyone I ask. So I feel like it's solid 2.5 stars but I can't give that so I'll be nice in rounding read more

Carne asada fries were their saving grace. Crispy fries, well seasoned and tasty carne with plenty of toppings. Street tacos were mediocre at best. At $5 a pop, that's pretty overpriced - the value is just not there at this premium price point. I will not be coming back for their street tacos. Will stick to my more authentic Mexican spots for $3 per taco that are more generously portioned. Free chips and salsa was nice but should be the standard. Salsa was tasty with roasted flavors and chips came out warm. Side of rice and beans were enough for my toddler; they are definitely trying to cut costs with smaller portions. The premium price point is paying for the dining experience, but if the experience is nothing special, then I'm not going to be happy about paying the premium price tag and then tipping for the service as well. Might as well go to a fast casual spot for cheaper/better/more generously portioned food without having to pay for the server's wage and being waited on. Service was standard and ambiance was okay for an Americanized Mexican joint. Might come back for the carne asada fries but overall nothing spectacular. Plenty of room for improvements. read more

It was my first time here for a team lunch and we got Hallie as our waitress. She's great! Very attentive and got everything I needed in a timely matter. Ask for her, she'll take care of y'all! Thank you! read more

Amazing food ! Really cool place, nice ambiance. But the SERVICE !!!!! 5 stars, all day, everyday. CAROL was awesome; she went above and beyond ! read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant. I love it here, every single dish I've tried I've loved. I love the chips and all the different salsa options. So good...the entire family loves it. Service is always outstanding! read more

We had a great experience! The food was good, and the service was excellent. Our server, Karol P., was especially wonderful--very attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Her positive attitude and great service really made our dining experience enjoyable. We would definitely come back again! read more

This review is not about thr food but the service. Our non existent server Lexie made sure that she would barely interact and had no interest in serving anyone. We started by asking for some pineapple salsa it took 3 times to get it. Then we ordered an appetizer which it seems we were bothering her on trying to order something. Then she brings it out and bam no plates, we are having a dinner for my wife's birthday and they are eating on napkins. The service was beyond terrible and I could go on. To finish our evening was wanting her to get the fried ice cream and as I expected she just placed the receipt down then had to ask. Then did not bring enough spoons. Normally great experiences at this place but the staff just does not know hospitality and needs some serious training or hire new people that will actually care about their patrons. read more

Cantina Gueros was good! The interior was really fun with some neat wall art. Chips and salsa were good too. The only complaint was service; very slooooow experience for me. Our server was kind. Once seated, she brought our drinks, then the chips. Easy peasy. Then forever to take our order. Refills came, but after a while, and waiting for the bill was another story. If the place is busy, I get it. But there were A LOT of empty tables. The food was good, not great though. The asada reminds me of reheated meat. Like yeah it was good, but it def felt like they made it the day prior and just warmed it up for me. Bean and cheese burrito was great, so that was a win! Overall, Cantina Gueros is an okay choice, but I don't think i'd go back. read more

I wanted to like it but 3 strikes you're out. First visit there was a huge wait when we were next a family came in that had left an hour ago. Even though they were told they would have to rejoin the wait list they complained and were seated before us. That's didn't ruin the experience but was annoying, next visit the chips were stale and cerviche tasted bland. Final visit our shredded meat was so dry and gross. The pineapple salsa is good. This place give very not authentic Mexican food vibes. It's very bold to bold to open a Mexican restaurant in a border state that is not authentic or good. read more

Margaritas are amazing and Karol was spot on! She was attentive and vrry personable. We will definitely be back :)

Great food excellent service. Love love love their chips.! Love this place. We go in at least 2 times a week

To be honest, the service was awful. The host was amazing and opened the door for me. Other than that I did not enjoy my time here.

We enjoyed our friends but it was not the best experience. We seemed to of waited a long time for someone to greet us. No drinks or water nothing .chips and salsa was good but we still didn't have a drink . It seemed we waited a long time for every thing .. food was just ok .. my chicken quesadilla was yummy , the service was very slow ..it wasn't crowded at all . Frustrating nothing seems to be special any more .. read more

We are from Las Vegas and were recommended this place by a local friend. This was one of the best Mexican restaurants my wife and I have been to. The staff was very friendly and attentive. We were offered pineapple salsa which my wife enjoyed quite a bit. I would not eat a whole serving of this pineapple salsa but a few chips was good. The tortilla chips were very good. Some of the tastiest and perfectly salted chips we've had. The red salsa was so good we both put it on our tacos and enchiladas. Food was fast and fresh. The tequila lime chicken was especially good on both a taco and enchilada. This is a great restaurant to have a casual meal and watch a sports game. Nothing fancy and that's the way Mexican should be. read more

Love coming to Cantina! The beer is cold and the prickly pear margs are so good. Deann is regularly our server and is the sweetest. Highly recommend. read more

If this location is a spot you are choosing to go to, DO NOT! The service I received here was terrible. My server, estimated to be in her late 50s, treated me as an inconvenience rather than a guest. She had so much attitude against me. She might have been having a bad day, but it should NOT have been taken out on us. The hostess in the front with short, curly, brown hair was kind and friendly to me at the beginning of my visit and the only good part of my day at Cantina Gueros. read more

The food was good. However the service wasn't the nicest. I'm not sure what's her name, but I'm pretty sure it's Dinnace or something.

I REALLY want to love this place, so we try again every six months or so. But each visit leaves me just a little disappointed. Pros: The place is close by, it's got a nice indoor / outdoor bar thing happening, and the patio is dog friendly. Good free chips and salsa, two flavors. Cons: You almost have to fire off a flare gun to get a server's attention. The food is mediocre, even for low-expectation Americanized Mexican food. And the place always feels a little dirty. The waitress was out of menus and had to "wipe some off" before she could bring them to our table. What's happening there that every single menu needs a bath on a Wednesday evening? This seems like a good candidate for an episode of a Gordon Ramsey restaurant refresh show. Feels like he'd be yelling at the staff his famous line, "you've just stopped caring!!!" read more

We ate lunch here today and it was delicious. This is our third time coming here and the food is always so so good. Hallie P. was our waitress and I think she's our favorite so far. Great service and super helpful. Love this place! We will keep coming back. read more

We have been looking for a new place for Mexican food in our part of the world. We found a couple seats at the bar. The bar stools are comfy and they have lots of TV's for watching the game. Our bartender was fantastic. He made some great drinks and gave quick service with a good attitude. The chips are excellent - crisp, thin, and hot. The salsas are good too. Our entrées were just OK. The green chili pork needed way more green chili flavor. It tasted like more tomatillos than Hatch green chili. My wife's salad was really wet and she didn't get any cilantro flavor from the dressing. I have said before that great service can overshadow less than stellar food. Our bartender made our visit enjoyable even though our food was not perfect. We will come again and try some other food options. read more

Food & service amazing! Had 3 street tacos with rice, amazing taste...one chix tequila lime, one shimp & the final one the best most tender carne asada tacos i have ever had. Live pretty far so worth the drive. Also have pineapple salsa! But their regular salsa & chips is awesome too. Service great & ambiance nice in bar watched football. read more

Lunch was good at the Cantina Gueros. I had the shrimp enchiladas and my wife chose the lunch quesadillas. Both were good. The enchiladas had a generous portion of shrimp and the quesadillas used a very flaky tortilla. Both meals were nicely prepared and presented. A nice choice for our lunch. read more
