Santo Cantina & Cocina

After driving by this place on numerous occasions, I finally decided to come on an early Tuesday evening and sat at the bar. The ambiance is casual with tons of natural lighting, and as the sun sets, the place becomes dimly lit as if you're back in a cantina in Tulum (woke up a core memory of mine). As a first time patron, I had my mind set on the delicious Lobster tacos and paid no mind to the taco specials, but took advantage of the half-priced Margarita special. John was my bartender-extraordinaire and took care of me. My "spicy" marg was perfection! The free chips & salsa were amazing, especially since everything is made in-house.Word of advice: Ask for a to-go order of the chips & salsa. Save your receipt for a discount at their sister restaurant "Calle" located down the street

I have been here once before and remembered enjoying the experience but surprised I didn't share. This place gives you a private romantic but trendy vibe. Like you can do this individually, date, girls night out it works for all of those. The people amazing. I brought my kid and they where awesome about knowing what we needed without saying. But the most important part is the food. I love a good carne asada so went with that. Since it was Tuesday I did the special which was there margaritas and it was good.I know I was impressed. But I would say they drinks alone does it. But the food is absolutely delicious. I also appreciated that the sever thought to ask how I wanted my steak, did I want flour or corn tortillas and just the consideration all around.

The food is delicious, I keep coming and try different foods. I enjoy coming to Santo Cantina, the staff are wonderful and attentive! It is always a Joy to come and dine here. The ambience is lovely and feels magical to sit outside, eat yummy food, and people watch!

Delicious carne asada street tacos, small but mighty. The chorizo/beef mixture tacos was yummy, too and the refried beans didn't disappoint, either. We will be back!

We love this unique Mexican restaurant in the Avondale area. Today we sat on the patio for the first time and it was a beautiful day. The hostess was super nice and made sure our table was clean and we were comfortable. The waiter (Shaun) was very helpful when we asked a few questions. All this is great, but the reason we come here is the delicious drinks and food. We love the Santa (House) Margarita, but the hubby tried the Jamaica Margarita today, it was sweeter but good. House salsa and chips are so yummy! Guacamole is delicious and the Queso is always a hit. The hubby usually gets the lobster tacos which are great, but today he tried the Mole Ojo Rojo (which was so good). I usually get the Verdes O Rojas (chicken enchiladas) which are wonderful with that verde salsa, but I tried the tacos (carnitas and al pastor) and they were amazing! Can't wait to go back..next week!

I came around 6:30pm on a Friday with a group of 4. We were seated immediately, although they were more busy by the time we left. They do have covered outdoor seating with heaters, but it was still too chilly for me.Everyone ordered a margarita and enjoyed them. We also enjoyed the free chips and salsa (probably ate too many). For dinner my husband and I had the birria tacos. They came filled with meat, I really appreciate that they didn't skimp on the meat! I felt like it was missing some flavor but my husband thought it tasted fine. I'd be open to returning but would probably order something else.

Our waiter was very attentive. We were seated right away on a Friday night on the outdoor patio. Our drinks were delicious! I ordered chicken enchiladas with beans and rice. It came out very quickly and was so good. The salsa is thicker but taste great I will be back!

Hair in my nachos. Staff was very friendly and comped meal. But I used to love this place now I can't see anything but that

The food was great! like, REALLY good. The chicken was very delicious, not to mention the staff were also incredibly nice.When I ran low on water They came with an empty glass bottle and poured it like champagne, also kept the mood incredibleIt feels like a small shop, i mean thats what it is, but this little local resturaunt was a great place to eat on our trip from florida!They give you chips and salsa for free the first round, and for just an enchilada and i think a fahita (butchered that spelling), was only 30 dollars, which in my opinion was great for the quality of the food.

Not too badI had a few cocktails- street tacos where sooooo smalll but okLove sitting outside people watching
