Solo taco mission
Jeremy T.

Pretty cool litte bar with some decent music playing. The decorations here provide a bit of class and definitely add to the experience. The street tacos have no business being $6. The shredded chicken tacos were delicious and decent size. I wasnt mad at the price for these. As for the service, the staff was friendly and the beer was cold.

Cute decor

It is a challenge to find decent Mexican food in the Northwest when you are Mexican and can cook well. That said, The Cantina passes the vibe check. I've had great experiences dining in person and via takeout now, which is a small miracle in itself. Staff are extremely friendly, accommodating, happy to offer suggestions, and enthusiastically fill you in on specials and deals for locals. When staff informed us that The Cantina is managed by El Dorado I was not surprised. I am happy that we can now enjoy the quality and flavors we enjoy at their OG establishments, here in our little corner of the valley. Chips and salsa are a good indicator of how the food will be, and they nailed it. I cannot pick a favorite salsa here because they are all phenomenal. The food was great too! I loved my aguachiles, though they came pretty cooked which is not typical. The flavors and freshness were there, so it was only a minor issue. The tajin on the tostadas was nice. My husband loved his enchiladas verde and said they are almost as good as mine, which is a huge compliment considering my cooking was one of the contributing factors of his proposal. Drinks were fabulous. The paloma was huge and different considering they use Jarritos, but the way the mixologist made the drink made it work. I ordered the pozole rojo for takeout and was impressed that they cook the hominy from scratch since most places do not. Attention to detail matters. My husband's carne asada burrito was huge, and apparently tasty because he did not save me one bite! We are grateful for this addition to Centennial and look forward to dining here more often.

The Cantina is a 24/7 Bar, Gaming, and Restaurant located in the Centennial Area. The Restaurant offers a limited Mexican Menu and Smash Burgers. They do not use seed oils or use microwaves. I was told the only oil they use is beef tallow. Inside is kinda dark and decorated with day of the dead Mexican Pictures and other things like sombreros. But country music fills the air. Margaritas are decent. They started us off with complimentary chips and two very good salsas. My husband started off by trying a carnitas taco. He said that it was very good. We shared a chicken and steak fajita. WOW! everything about it was very good! The chicken was tender, moist, and developed with flavor. The steak had a nice delicious char and was very flavorful and very tender. I must give 5 stars because it was the best steak I ever had for fajitas anywhere. Guacamole was also better than from most places. The only thing is that the tortillas are not hand made but were very fresh so that's ok. Our server was attentive and helpful. She also informed us about all kinds of specials they offer here. 50% off to locals on Mondays and lots of other specials. It's great that we've found this place for the best fajitas in town.

Street Tacos: Chicken, Carne Asada, Al Pastor

The Cantina is a new restaurant that offers Mexican inspired food located in the Northwest Centennial Hills area. The spot is designed for adults and is more of a a full bar and entertainment space. The interior has a large bar area, big screen TVs for sports, and slot style gaming machines. It's also open 24/7! On the menu, it has a wide variety of options such as the following Street Style Tacos: Carne Asada, Al Pastor, Pulled Chicken, Carnitas, and more) Smash Burgers Fajitas and more If you're looking for drinks, the Cantina has options like signature margaritas, shot specials, late night happy hour, and more! There are a variety of promotions and pricing that the Cantina is currently running. On Mondays: 50% off your bill is you're a local Tacos & Tequila Tuesdays with $4.00 street tacos and $6.00 on certain tequila Taco & Beer Wednesdays: $2 draft beer with $4 street tacos There are a variety of happy hour and late night specials too! The complimentary chips included two different salsas - a green and red sauce. Both were spicy, but good! I ended up ordering 3 different street tacos. [1] Chicken: This was good. Loaded with cheese and Pico. The chicken was tender and juicy. [1] Carne Asada: This was my favorite. I did put the large avocado on the side. I usually like guacamole or the avocado sliced up. The Carne Asada was super flavorful. [1] Al Pastor: There was a lot of the sauce below the meat on the flour tortilla. It was difficult to eat the street taco. The pineapple was yummy with the Al Pastor meat though! My husband enjoyed the Fajitas and had plenty of left overs for the next day! The service was fantastic here and the food was delicious! I think next time we stop by on a Monday, instead of a Thursday afternoon, I'll be trying out a smash burger!

Steak Enchiladas
Robert S.

We visited on Thursday for lunch, with a party of two, and it was a nice experience. We arrived and were told to seat ourselves. There is a bar as well as several seating options, it is quite dark. The waitress stopped by and took our drink order, their margaritas are strong and tasty. We started with Chicken Taquitos. They were very fresh and well prepared. From there we went with Steak and Shrimp Enchiladas. The shrimp enchiladas were extremely spicy, I like that, but it would have destroyed anyone who can not take the heat. The service was excellent, the waitress was friendly, prompt, and professional. Overall, a nice place to grab a bite and a drink.

Al Pastor Tacos

I have been a long time fan of El Dorado Cantina's restaurants (years and years!), but this new location has quickly become my favorite. First, NW Vegas is starving for some new places and the Cantina being 24/7 is such a plus. Inside: The decor is modern with the El Dorado touch. There's low tables, few half booths, a high tops and a bar. There's plenty of tv's around so it's going to be a go-to for sports watching. Service: Everyone here is so friendly and welcoming. This is really a great neighborhood vibe. Chef Marques often comes out to talk with the customers and to make sure all is good. This means a lot - they care about the quality of food and they really show their appreciation for visiting them. The food: Delicious! Their Al Pastor and Carnitas tacos are amongst my favorites. You can get them a la carte. The tacos are filled with plenty of meat so with only a couple of them, you can get pretty full. Not to mention, if you get chips and salsa as well, you'll be stuffed. I also tried their Chicken Enchiladas and it was so good. The pulled chicken is super tender, the green sauce has a nice kick to it on the spice level. The dish comes with rice and beans. They run a special everyday of the week including all day Happy Hour on Saturday.

The setting , the not having toilet paper, and the decor at the entrance.

When we walked in, we were expecting The Cantina authentic Mexican experience. Upon entering it looked nice, sitting down I notice many things which did not match the decor style. It was still cute though. Bartender / waitress / ( I think she was also the cook, not sure ) was there alone , bartending and waiting on tables. She made sure to let us know that she was a one woman show today, so could we please help her by grabbing our waters from bar. Not a problem! It's not her fault management failed her. She got it done. I wasn't sure about ordering the Mexican dishes, after seeing that it was a bit confusing in regards to having an authentic Mexican food experience. We started with the chips and salsa and a side of guacamole. It was delicious The chips had a taste that reminded me of my time in Mexico , with my grandma as a little girl ( happy times, nostalgic ) The burger w/ fries plate , well that's another story. The burger was so dry, I drowned it with ketchup and salsa. I don't ever add ketchup to my burger. The fry's were crispy and a bit burnt. Very disappointed, because I love my food. They are a little expensive for what they served. We ate it anyway and I did bring my leftovers home to pick at. We were going to get drinks but decided we didn't want to have to make our own. Both bathroom stalls had run out of toilet paper. Luckily the seat covers were stocked , because that's what I had to wipe with. Hopefully the owners will step up their game , because that was not it. It looks like it would end up closing if this is the norm. Hopefully it was just a bad weekend. If the food and service is good I never question the prices. If you are having a bad day , you should never relay that to your customers , and to think we should know or need to help is crazy. Anyways we didn't want to make her job harder than it needed to be . We went to relax enjoy food and eat. Will not be going back. The potential is there, they just need to find it.

NOPE. I had such high hopes for this place but was left utterly disappointed. Came last night because the instagram account looked like they had good food and drinks and it's in the North, closer to me. Let's start at the beginning, walk in, the place is decorated nicely, the wall art pops, chandeliers look awesome. We sat and waited for a server to come...waiting.... waiting.... still waiting. It took close to 15 minutes before the waitress came to our table. Note, they were not crowded at all. This was after we told another employee that we wanted to place drink orders, she told us she would tell our server. The wait didn't start the experience off well. When the waitress finally made it to our table, we ordered drinks and food at the same time as we obviously had enough time to decide what we wanted. My sister and I ordered the Passion Fruit martini. It was nasty. We knew it as soon as it came to the table as it looked thick and syrupy. It was too sweet, I'm not even sure if there was any alcohol in it. To add insult, the glass was about 2/3 full. We even asked the waitress what happened to the rest of our drink. Friend ordered the blueberry sour, emphasis on sour. Drinks were not good at all. Such a let down as they look amazing in photos. There were two bartenders, man and woman, not sure who made what, but all the cocktails we ordered were just not good. Let's get to food. I ordered the posole, and esquite fries, sister ordered the quisibirria tacos, hubby ordered the mahi, carna asada, brisket, & carnitas tacos. Friend ordered the enchiladas and esquite. My husband said the mahi taco was very good and he enjoyed it the most, but the brisket didn't taste like brisket, and the carnitas & carna asada were average. My sister liked the quisibirria taco. I never received the posole and just told the waitress to cancel it. I most enjoyed the esquite fries with carnitas. Those were very good. The enchiladas tasted tart, maybe too much tomatillo in the sauce. Not sure if they could sense our frustration and displeasure, but the cook actually came to our table to check in with us. That was much appreciated. When we were ready to go, I asked the waitress for the check, I can't say I was surprised that our check was wrong. I told the waitress, she was quick to correct it. Overall, it was not a good experience and I don't think I want to go back. It was that bad.

Chicken Pasole . New bar . I'll have to go again . Specials during football games . Kind of quiet till people find out this place exists
Benny G.

Football specials on game day . Go check this place out ! Kind of hidden in the corner . Clean inside and many amazing decorations on the walls

Kid friendly? And one question about the pozole. We like the red but with chicken instead of pork. Would they be able to accommodate that?

It is a bar, I believe it is 21 and older.

Are all the fried foods cooked in Tallow? Does this include the Taquitos?

My understanding is yes

Do you have any gluten-free items?

Yes they do have some gluten free options

It was hard to make a decision but we started with the Tomato Bruschetta for an appetizer. Very fresh! Then came the Chicken Caesar Salad, Tuna Wonton Nachos, Short Ribbed Grilled Cheese and Steakhouse Burger. Drinks were the Watermelon Sunset, Peach Blossom, Corona Beer and a couple of sodas. Everyone enjoyed their food and the conversation flowed. The energy pulsing atmosphere with all the games going on really enhanced our experience. Good service even though it was very busy and whatever we needed was provided. So much fun celebrating with you Dawne F. and Greg S! By George, we will return again!

We started with the WSKY poppers -- deep fried jalapeño bites topped with bourbon bacon jam and chipotle yum yum sauce. These were hands down the best jalapeño poppers we have ever had. A must try.

The order came with three filets along with tartar sauce, coleslaw, and hush puppies. The Cajun chicken Alfredo was amazing and very flavorful. The chicken and sausage were cut into small pieces which made it easy to eat and the sauce had great Cajun flavor without being overpowering. So glad we decided to try this place while on vacation. We would definitely order from here again.
