    We were looking for something more than just a typical taqueria and came across Santo Cantina y…read moreCocina--and it absolutely lived up to the hype from its great Yelp reviews. There were so many tempting options on the menu, but we landed on the empanadas with mango slaw, birria tacos with a side of vegetables, and the enchiladas suizas. Every single dish was mouthwateringly delicious--nothing fell short of spectacular. Even the service stood out; our waitress was outstanding and made the whole experience even better. The portions are generous, and what really sets this place apart is the seasoning. Each dish had its own unique twist that elevated it well beyond your standard Mexican menu. The slow-cooked meat in both the empanadas and birria tacos was incredibly tender--so good it kept us going back for "just one more bite" long after we were full. And the tomatillo sauce on the enchiladas? Easily the best I've ever had--and I don't say that lightly. I'm a bit of a tomatillo sauce snob, and this one completely blew me away. We're just visiting the area, but this quaint little spot--with its charming covered patio--left a lasting impression on our trip. If you're local, this should be in your regular rotation. If you're visiting, don't miss it

    First off I love me a good arepa! They were so kind as it was my first time…read more Presentation Ambiance Good food The ambiance resembled being outside. I was really impressed by the food presentation because a rice pyramid was not on the books this day but trust me when I say I wasn't mad at it and we enjoyed the taste even more! The arepa was out of this world. Just what I asked for! I love the sauce options. So good Must return and get it again I just didn't enjoy the dessert. Something about hot guava sauce wasn't my thing.

    This is our new "go-to" place as of recently. Everything is gluten free and it's easy to swap out…read morenata/dairy sauces with other sauces or remove cheese. We've ordered the same dishes twice because they are so good: arepita frita: tiny fried arepas. Interestingly, these are just like what my family called fried cornbread growing up. It hit a nostalgic taste note for me. cachapa: a sweet corn pancake (has egg) filled with seasonal market veggies. I can't say enough good things about how those veggies are cooked. They are perfectly sauteed and seasoned. Next time I'm just getting a bowl of them. Lately it has been broccolini, kale, mushrooms, squash and zucchini. Empanadas: these are made to order so you can remove cheese from the filling. I don't even like sweet plantain but the combination of sweet plantain with the savory black beans in the crispy shell is perfection. These reheat well also. Guava juice is otherworldly. Soooo good. The food also holds up well for leftovers, if you have any!
