Food and drinks are on point, we both ordered their Smoky Old Fashioned and the tacos as well as their staple Wagyu hamburger! Service was great and our waitress Erin was really friendly and checked on us often which was really nice! While they have expanded, reservations are a must if you're looking at bringing in a large group for dinner. Their menu is a revolving one so what some may have one night could differ another. If your in Destin and looking for a nice place for dinner or a libation this place definitely worth checking out!!

Stopped in mid-morning and ordered a "Cachapa" - a thick, very sweet, cake made with fresh…read morecorn/masa. The half inch thick "torta" is sometimes as a thick pancake and often folded in half for serving. This one was a bit too thick to do that and, instead, covered the serving plate (see photo posted). This thick corn cake was fried to a crispy light golden brown crust with a moist and tender very sweet interior. It was topped with melted cheese (queso a mano) or white mozzarella. It also was covered with a fairly tender layer of barbecued beef plus slices of fresh avocado. Big serving - big flavor. Also grabbed a half dozen "Colombian" style empanadas (2 of each type: chicken, beef, or cheese.) Well cooked, slightly thick cornmeal crust and amply filled. These came with garlic-forward Colombian "Aji picante." Many more Latin dishes to explore on another visit.

The food here is great and very authentic! We are local and directly behind them in Emerald Lakes…read more We eat from there often. They are a bit limited on staff and only have a couple of small tables for dining in. This is basically a pickup only restaurant. I've been trying to find a way to put in orders ahead of time in hopes of saving time. Pickup orders sometimes require a lengthy wait! I've tried calling ahead but, again, limited staff, so no one ever answers. Their online pickup ordering system charges a $3.00 fee which is above and beyond the tip. Wish that wasn't the case but if $3 saves 30 minutes of wait time, I guess it's worth it!

We were in Destin, FL on a family vacation and decided to visit Cantina Laredo with a party of 14…read more I had called ahead hoping to make a reservation, but was told they don't take reservations, so we expected a pretty long wait when we arrived. To our surprise, the staff was incredibly accommodating. The patio was full, but they were able to seat our entire group in a private dining room. It ended up being even better than we expected--quiet, comfortable, and perfect for a large family gathering. Our server did an outstanding job throughout the evening. Managing a table of 14 people is no easy task, but he was attentive, friendly, and kept everything running smoothly from start to finish. We started with three orders of the tableside guacamole, and it was a huge hit. Watching the server prepare it fresh right at our table made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was excellent all around. I ordered the Brisket tacos, which were flavorful and delicious. Our son had the chicken enchiladas, and they looked amazing and tasted just as good. My husband ordered the carne asada plate, and the steak was incredibly tender, juicy, and full of flavor. For dessert, we ordered four of the apple pies with a scoop of vinalla ice cream served on sizzling skillets, and they were absolutely outstanding. The sizzling presentation was fun, and the warm apple pie was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. From the attentive service to the delicious food and the unexpected private dining room, Cantina Laredo made dining with a large group easy and enjoyable. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back the next time we're vacationing in the Sandestin area. Highly recommend! Excellent service, great food, and a wonderful experience for a large group. We would definitely be back next year!

This was the absolute worst meal I've ever had at Cantina Laredo. Honestly a first for me! We eat…read morehere often and love everything. On this occasion the quality and quantity didn't fit the price and was very insulting! I ordered Mahi Mahi with the asparagus and rice. It was the size of a child's meal for starters. The Mahi Mahi was VERY dry. I did tell my server but nothing was done, only an apology. I was also surprised at the tiny size of the asparagus and small portion of rice. I didn't push it because my husband gets embarrassed and will eat a disappointing meal and never complain. This was ridiculous however. His meal was also pretty small for the cost. Maybe it's changed since Covid rocked our lives in so many negative ways that restaurants are cutting back, but to be dried out fish isn't acceptable. I wish our server would have at least offered to replace it. I was just as mad at myself for not asking for a new dish or my money back. Our server was nice. But that didn't make anything better with my meal! Next time I won't be swayed by my dining partners desire to not complain. He also gave the server a VERY generous tip. He's just a really good guy that way but also gets taken advantage of in these type situations! I feel Cantina Laredo should give us a do-over.

Pedro's was very clean the staff was incredibly friendly and the food came out in a timely manner.. Found out they do a taco Tuesday so I came back and sat at the bar this time and ordered a bunch of tacos for only $2 a piece I personally like street tacos but they said you can order however you like The bartender was attentive and very friendly also don't write anything about a place before I've tried them more than once and Pedro's is 2 for 2 definitely I recommend
