    Cantina 1948 - New restaurant in Downtown Temple

    My partner and I came in on a Friday and although It was karaoke night it was decent, the…read moreenvironment was great. Some of the servers are a little clueless or too new to run their own tables. The server whose nickname is "T" is the best server in the whole joint meaning that it'll be hard to get her. We ordered the mango ceviche and Guac which were delicious as always.

    Great lil gem in "downtown" Temple. I personally judge my Mexican/ Tex-Mex restaurants on their…read morechips/salsa and their made to order margaritas. The margaritas (mine were on the rocks) made to perfection. Finally a place that has "Hot" salsa. Great taste, great amount of heat. Only miss with all of this are the chips. My personal preference is for a thinner chip. Some like the thicker ones and try this place regardless of my chip preferences. I ordered the Steak Fajitas with Corn tortillas. Great portion size. The sides were portioned to complete the meal. I did ask for sour cream since the menu did not say it came with it. Well it did and the waitress did not let me know that and so I got charged for an extra sour cream. Not a big fan of refried beans, however that was what they had. They tasted good and I believe if you are a refried beans type, they would be considered great! The restaurant itself is modern meets industrial vibe. Cozy but not tiny. The staff could be a little more attentive or at least more personable. All in all, I would eat here anytime I am visiting the area and wanting Mexican.

    It's unfortunate rating a local spot poorly but we definitely won't be back here. The place was…read moreempty but we still went long stretches without seeing our server and the food was less than mediocre... my husband ordered a pasta dish that left much to be desired on my goat cheese and chipotle jam burger had zero presence of the jam and maybe a table spoon of goat cheese in the center. It tasted like chewing through a quarter pound of unseasoned beef. I think quality control and flavor need to be addressed, the menu itself sounds like it has vision but the food falls short. I hope this place can improve and survive, tough to establish regular customers with menu items that don't live up to their price points.

    Had Valentines dinner here. Reservations made in advance for this special day. Got to meet Eric…read moreone of the owners at the check in desk. He recommended the upstairs dinning room if you want it to be romantic evening. Agree 100% when we left you could hardly hear your self talking. They also have a nice outside area which would be nice in spring/summer time. Our waitress was Riley who has been with them for 2 years and was very knowledgeable about the menu. She was spot on the whole night. Had our drinks my wife the Appleton and I had Dewars and soda. Bartender knows their stuff and does not skimp. Appetizers were Risotto Tots, Very good, also to large crab cake with remoulade sauce, excellent. Shrimp scampi was excellent and very filling. They have a very diverse menu for varying appetites. Highly recommend eating at this establishment. 5 stars plus. Keep up the great work.
