    Salmon taco and lemon shrimp taco with side of sautéed veggies
    Christin B.

    We have been coming here for years, but not consistently. However each time, the food has been consistently good. Crazy enough our family had never tried their tacos (typically we order the bowl or burritos). Our most recent visit our family of 4 all ordered a variety of tacos. And OMG! Insanely delicious and loaded with protein! I ordered the salmon and the lemon grilled shrimp with corn tortilla shell. The salmon was absolutely my favorite. The flavor was amazing and the salmon cooked perfectly. My husband ordered the tuna taco and allowed me to try it. Wow! The tuna blew my mind as well. We sat outside around 4:30, and were very comfortable with the outdoor fans going along with the umbrellas. And our server was excellent. She was knowledgeable and attentive. We learned fries are an option for a side dish, and the family thoroughly enjoyed those as well. We look forward to returning more often!

    Cabo is always a pretty easy, casual option for us. Being right near Ballantyne Backyard is nice so we can grab a bite to eat before or after exploring the attraction going on in BB at the time. I am more of a traditional Mexican food fan but my husband and daughter are so-so and Cabo has more options that satisfy them :) Service is good but not fast so keep that in mind. Here's what we tried: A Little bit of Spice cocktail and the mango jalapeno margarita - both were delicious. Spice one was very light and refreshing and the margarita was on the sweeter side. Queso is always a must here for us. Kids meal was solid - huge portion of quesadillas and fries with a big cup of milk. And crayons with coloring page - always a win. We tried the blackened mahi, steak and fried shrimp tacos - all extremely delicious and filling. We got the plantains and jalapeno cheddar mashers for the sides - OMG. Both so good. Plenty of parking and outside seating - a nice option when in the area!

    Cabo Fish Taco is our go-to spot for tacos and margaritas. I just love their fun, fresh flavors of the land and sea. I never venture outside of my usual Honey Soy Glazed Salmon taco but this time I did and WOW. The shrimp & chicken burrito had so much flavor and I really enjoyed the guac they throw in there. I got the sauce on the side for drizzling onto each bite and it was fantastic. Very filling, too! Also enjoyed were the lemon grilled shrimp taco and tavarua tuna taco. We loved it all! I also highly recommend the shrimp/crab dip with those toasted pita pockets. YUM. The el cheapo margarita is good for only $8 but I usually go for the skinny margarita. It just tastes so light and fresh to me.

    I enjoyed my lunch here. Huge building and a ton of room for all size parties. Dining inside and out. I ordered the grilled salmon and blackened mahi tacos. I asked for the salmon rare and it was excellent. I didn't really care for the mahi but the salmon I highly recommend. I also had the Mexican slaw which I thought was very tasty. It was a mayo based and had a great flavor. Salsa was full of corn but other than had an excellent flavor, too. Chips were good- not my fav but definitely good. Server was very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms were very clean, too!

    Ballantyne location has been the third Cabo I've dined at and the service, portions, and timeliness blew us away. Two of us went on a Monday night and were in and out within 30 minutes. Our server was so attentive, helpful with recommendations, and quick quick quick. All 4 tacos we got were amazing - honey soy glazed salmon, soy ginger shrimp, bbq mahi, and the Tavarua tuna. DONT SKIP THE JALAPEÑO CHEDDAR MASHERS IF THEYRE IN SEASON (plantains we're also delish). Atmosphere wasn't anything out of the ordinary but location is pretty big. Will be venturing back for many more taco tuesdays

    Shrimp & Chicken Burrito

    Cabos fish taco is a winner. This is a great location in Ballantyne right off the exit of 485, decent sized patio and indoor space, with a cool to-go window you can order and pick-up from. I made this a pit stop before going to the Charlotte Arts Festival in "Ballantyne's Back Yard". So again, great location. I parked in the free parking deck and walked over, they also have spots available directly in front as well. I ordered the chicken and shrimp burrito with my girlfriend, we actually split it. The sever had it cut and half which was really nice, you also get one side with your entree. Our side of fries that comes with the burrito, was evenly portioned out (it's the little things). The food is really fresh and has great flavor. I like the chips and "salsa" but my girlfriend likes a little more sauce in the salsa and less pico style, which is mostly corn and diced tomatoes. The fries were also outstanding, they are similar to McDonald's fries but less starchy and processed. Overall I had a very pleasant experience, the 20 min wait on a Saturday ended up being 15 min, and they text your phone when your table is ready. In the meantime you can walk around the "Ballantynes Back Yard" which is just a nice open space with a green way. Pro tip: Take the walk in the backyard after you stuff yourself, you'll feel much better for it. :)

    See all

    Excellent food, well seasoned, and a nice location. Everything we had was good, not typical bland food.
