Cantina Mexican Grill & Bar

Great combo specials for very affordable price! Service has always been incredible & they are able to make dietary substitutions easily. Love the chimichanga with grilled chicken!

The food is great here but unfortunately they have messed up our To Go order the last 4 times we have ordered from here so not sure we'll be going back. The last time they asked us to bring back the food to prove part of our order was missing. Once they mixed up our order with someone else's.

House made guacamole is fantastic.We got Shrimp & Steak Fajitas For Two and they knocked our socks off. Generous portion with lots of fat shrimp and juicy chicken sizzling and cooked to perfection. Service was wonderful and the atmosphere is modern and clean.

Pleasantly surprised with Cantina. To be honest, I was expecting kind of a simple restaurant with nothing fancy. I was wrong. Cantina is modern, clean, comfortable and spacious. The food is presented nicely, plentiful and delicious. Our server was polite and helpful, coming by to check in on us regularly. My wife and I enjoyed our visit and the food. Check out the pictures and try out this place!

I'm giving the second star only because my 12 y/o daughter really enjoyed her shrimp quesadilla and churros. After that, everything else was subpar. Subpar. The remainder of our to-go order consisted of chicken fajita, and a chicken burrito. Both orders had burned onions and peppers (I know that's common occurrence with fajita dishes but it definitely took over the taste), the beans lacked major flavor, as with the rice and chicken. Even the tiny cup of guacamole lacked flavor. This was our first experience and more than likely our last. My husband did notice there wasn't really anyone dining inside and I see why. I didn't even finish the meal, picture included. Not because it was a generous portion given but the lack of pride that went into making the meal. Maybe it was an off day. I'll never know, sadly.

Highly recommend. Food is delicious & authentic, their tortilla chips are fresh and not greasy, every Tuesday is special on tacos & 2 beers for the price of one, nice atmosphere, great prices. Very attentive service. It's located in the plaza off of cross creek behind the shell gas station on cross creek.

This should be FIVE stars but on more than one occasion this place has frustrated us with their sneaky method of adding extra charges to menu items that aren't indicated on the menu or by the waitress. The additions make no sense and I've taken this up with the manager on at least two occasions but they keep doing it. The last was ordering a burrito, taco and enchilada from the "pick three" combination section where it clearly says to pick your choice of meat right on the menu (see photo). I selected ground beef on all three, which is not a premium type of meat like steak would be. When you get your bill there are up charges for 'beef'. The restaurant is located off the beaten path on Cross Creek in a strip center that is slowly being taken over by hookah shops (at least two at our last visit in Feb 2022). From the outside of the restaurant it looks closed until you try to open the door. They have recently expanded by taking over the next door unit and knocking the wall down. They haven't even completely filled the new section with tables so it looks like there is enough room for dancing and a band. Some of the booths are new, while some remain from before the expansion and they have tables too. There is a bar section with about four large TVs.The menu is very extensive so virtually every Mexican type food and topping are available. Latest visit included commentary salsa and tortillas, both excellently fresh. The good waitress kept asking if we wanted refills (thank you!). As mentioned earlier I went with the pick three combo. The taco can be had with hard corn or soft flour tortillas and your choice of meat. The cheese is so fresh and overflowing that I poured the remainder on the enchilada. It also comes with a special spicy sauce that looks like refried beans but is cold and tasty if you like spicy. The burrito is also excellent except for the upcharge to add meat. The enchilada was my third favorite. Comes with refried beans and Mexican rice, both nice additions that make the plate filling. You'll notice in the picture it took two plates to present the food.Also had the shredded chicken enchiladas with mole sauce. This too was tasty. Same treatment with refried beans and Mexican rice.If it weren't for the unexpected meat upcharge we would be going to this restaurant more often since it is so close. On your next round of menu printings they should fix this unnecessary evil. This isn't a top-notch Michelin restaurant so it isn't justified.

Mexican anyone ??? Come sip margaritas while snacking on the complimentary chips and salsa . Giant margaritas aside an authentic meal . The big Burrito was graciously filled with black beans , your choice of protein , lettuce , guacamole, pico de gallo, cheese nestled in a flour tortilla and then grilled to perfection . The carnitas special had the most tender meat , fluffy rice and refried beans that were tasty topped with cheese . Had to end this meal with their churros . Crunchy and seasoned with cinnamon sugar , came with a perfect amount of vanilla ice cream for dipping . Service was outstanding . Staff is super friendly definitely a must try !!!!

The last couple times I have eaten there it has been good. We went last night and had an aweful experience. We waited for our food for almost an hour, our waiter basically ignored us unless we went to him and to top it off when the food came out it was honestly bad. Our waiter apologized and said the kitchen was short staffed, and there appeared to be no manager in sight. We watched 2 tables get up and walk away because they were ignored. Overall a really bad experience.

Food tasted good but took a long time to reach our table, even though the restaurant was not busy. Food was lukewarm, not hot as I expected.
