Lindo Mexico Restaurant and Cantina

Lindo Mexico Restaurant and Cantina is an absolute gem! My experience here was nothing short of fantastic. We started with the chips, which were perfectly crispy and paired wonderfully with their zesty salsa. But the real star of the meal was the chili relleno--rich, flavorful, and expertly prepared.Our server, Eric, truly elevated the dining experience. He was attentive and friendly and made excellent recommendations. I can't wait to return to Lindo Mexico! It's the place to be.

Well this is not a place we will be returning. The service was OK. And the cleanliness was pretty good. So that's why they get stars at all. We were seated right away so that was good for a party of 5 at lunch BUT there were only two other tables seated while we were there. Should have been a sign. Chips were delivered fairly quickly with salsa. We started by asking for guacamole and queso with the chips. A small bowl of guacamole was brought out and i explained we wanted tableside. The server said he would go get it. The chips were warm and the salsa good. The chips were also very good and crunchy but light I will say. The server came back out and said that there were no avocados to make tableside guacamole. This was confusing since we had a small bowl of guacamole in front of us but we just said okay. At that time the queso was also served and it was not at all what was on the menu.The menu said that the queso would have beans and chorizo in it. It had neither and was really a light white sauce with a little bit of cheese in it. I actually enjoyed it but we later found out it was pretty darn close to the same thing that came on top of the Pollo a la Crema.I saw a lunch portion fajitas on another table and asked if that was also the same size for the dinner and he said no the dinner one was much bigger. So I ordered the dinner chicken fajitas. When they finally came out they were the same size and yet $5 more. Super disappointing.But the fajitas were good I will say that. They did come out sizzling so I was grateful at least that happened and they had the normal garnishes. The chicken quesadilla that we ordered look more like chicken tacos kind of strange but they said they were okay. The two in our party that ordered the beef enchiladas a La Crema said they were okay. We also had a person in our party who ordered a chicken burrito and I think it was okay too although it wasn't finished so that always leads me to believe that perhaps it could have been better.Overall in my opinion the food was actually rather Bland... even the fajitas.I ordered a virgin strawberry daiquiri and although it was somewhat tasty they definitely did not use real strawberries in their strawberry daiquiri nor even a real strawberry puree. I think it was more of a strawberry syrup.For five people for lunch with one virgin daiquiri and one soda it was over $120 definitely not worth it we will definitely not be back.

Looks and feels like a dive but is really good. Used to go here when I was dating someone who lives in the same neighborhood so I've been avoiding it. Well found myself upon it by accident the other day when I was in Portland area for business & tried it with my now better adjusted palate & it was excellent. Didn't make me fart like I used to remember when I was dating that gal who lives nearby. Or was that perhaps her? HmmmGet tacos or enchiladas / amazing.

Delicious Mexican food! I prefer to come here for lunch, and every time I've been here the chips have been fresh and delicious. There's usually only one waiter who tries his best but you'll probably have an empty drink in front of you. I've ordered the nachos, chicken quesadilla, and taco salad - highly recommend if you're in the area.

Great service. Food is very good. I ordered chili rellenos twice and I won't order again. Chili rellenos are my favorite but not here. Quick to get the meal out to the table. Years ago they had a tortilla machine the kids enjoyed watching. I suppose Covid changed that

Loved the food. Service was great. Food was hot and tasty. I had the combination plate- a little bit all my favorites.

I loved the ambiance and the food was good as well. I love their fresh salsa and chips. Good service.

Skip this place, while the servers were great the food is not. My taco salad is soggy the queso doesn't have any flavor, and the bean dip tastes old. I spent over $60 and most of my meal is inedible.Maybe they are better in house, but I won't be back again to test that theory.

Fantastic food. Friendly staff. Quick service and food delivery. Good atmosphereI will definitely come back here.

Nice employees, tasty food, fair prices, friendly service. Even live entertainment! What's not to like? I enjoyed the shrimp with garlic sauce. Will return next time I'm in the area.
