I remember when this was a fast food joint, but the interior now is totally different. We were impressed with the change. We were able to be seated quickly. For a Sunday it was pretty busy. They've several TVs around the restaurant so you can watch while eating. The menu is pretty extensive and has something for everyone. Lucky us, they had 5 dollar jumbo lime margaritas and 10 dollar fajitas for their specials that night. We were like sold! The husband saw queso and chips on the menu... needless to say we ordered it ASAP. The queso was pretty damn good. Not bland nor was it watery. Very addicting!! The jumbo frozen margaritas were strong and hit the spot. If I weren't driving, I would've had at least 1 or 2 more. Next time tho!! The chicken fajitas were massive. We honestly expected small portions considering it was the special. It was huge! The fajitas were outstanding. Lots of flavors and super tender. My mom and husband finished theirs. I only had room for half of it. Gotta save room for dessert!! The churro dessert we ordered was to die for. The dessert came in a huge cup with ice cream topped with caramel along with 4 churros. We all inhaled that dessert!! We left full and happy. Great spot overall! Great service and food. Definitely coming back next time I am in town.

If you're in the mood for Mexican food that hits different than what you're used to, you'll find it here. They put their own unique flair on everything from the salsas to the drinks to the burritos. My all time fave is the mission burrito, packed with healthy ingredients but loaded with flavor and sauces. It's delicious! It's a fun atmosphere and all the servers we've had have been super nice and helpful. They also offer a convenient lane outside for takeout so you don't even need to leave your car.

FINALLY a Taco Spot that has REALLY HOT SALSA!…read more I am one of those crazy folks that love to eat uncomfortably hot stuff. I am usually disappointed by sauces that are either not hot enough or hot but don't taste good. Cantina Taco is not one of those places. Their salsa's are DELICIOUS and the pack a punch. I experienced Very Friendly Staff, and very quick service. I ordered Two Tacos, Black bean and Vegan Chorizo with an order of beans and rice. I got their 4 alarm salsa and their Mango Habanero to go with those and a Large Horchata. Everything was VERY very good. The Mango Habanero almost seemed spicier to me and had SO much flavor. I would go back just to get that. THe 4 alarm salsa was also very good but a totally different flavor profile. The Tacos were very generously portioned. The Tacos themselves were good but with the Salsa's they were great. The Rice and beans were good but the portion was a little small. The Horchata was delicious and helped cool me off from the Hot Salsas. I am already preparing to return so that I can try other items of their menu.

We got our food and finished it just in time to see the show. Most people don't realize the pace these employees were working to make that happen, not just for us, but everyone in their restaurant. They were hauling! The food was absolutely delicious, and everything coming out of their kitchen looked equally amazing. They did a great job.

Didn't know this place existed till I drove by yesterday and it peaked my interest…read more I came in around 4:45 on a Wednesday with no one else here yet, ordered five tacos (two carnitas and 3 of their special "Burria" tacos that are not on the menu) and a side of rice and beans for my wife and I to share. The staff seemed fairly nice and helpful, although you could tell they were a little stressed. It took about 25 minutes to get our to-go order ready, which seemed like a pretty long wait given I was one of only two parties there and didn't order much food. To be fair, I was already starving so that made it feel longer. We ordered the tacos Mexican style (comes on a corn tortilla, with onions and cilantro) because a) that sounded delicious and b) I can't eat cheese/dairy and that is what comes on the other option, the American style of taco. It came out to be more expensive than I thought it was so I checked the bill and sure enough, the special tacos were almost double the price of a normal taco, which was not told to me or written down anywhere. And when we finally got the tacos, the Burria tacos were covered in cheese. Now I can't eat any of those plus I paid more than I wanted to for them. I told the lady working at the counter that I didn't want cheese (that's why I ordered them Mexican style) and I thought there might have been a mistake. She told me "sorry that's just the way they're made." All in all the food was very tasty (the two carnitas tacos that I could eat were great and my wife said the special tacos were very tasty although pretty heavy) and I like that it's locally owned and operated, but bummed at the poor communication.
