Walking in, we expected this to be similar to Marty B's, but it is not. The lighting is lower and the ambiance is more upscale, but the staff was exactly what we were expecting. We were warmly welcomed upon entering and immediately seated. Brice was our server and he was very warm and polite. Our drink order was delivered to our table quickly, of which my wife ordered a skinny margarita and I had the spicy. Both were solid as was to be expected. For food, I ordered the brisket Birria tacos and she had an order of pork tamales and chicken tortilla soup. Our kids had the chicken strips. All our food was very good and I'd give the adult meals a solid A-. The only issue any of us had was the soup is slightly under salted. That being said, both the tamales and tacos were top notch. Excellently seasoned, well cooked and the presentation was great. We were talked into dessert (though it didn't take much arm twisting once the options were explained) and ordered the 5-layer ice cream and cheesecake. My daughter and I preferred the cheesecake while my wife and son preferred the ice cream. Although both were phenomenal and I would recommend either. We are typically not the type of family that orders dessert, but we wanted to give them a shot. Overall, I will say that the food is well worth it along with the atmosphere, but the highlight is the service. My wife works in the high end restaurant industry and this was a great experience. It's competitive with much more expensive restaurants and I'm very happy that this is so close to us. We will definitely be returning. My only complaints would be extremely minor, which is the lighting during the lunch service (maybe dial it up 15%) and the slightly under salted soup. Other than those, I would highly recommend dining here. Great job! read more

5 star restaurants does it again!! I've been to them all and this one does not disappoint. I never order fajitas but we came because of the highly recommended posts and reviews. We went early and the place was pretty full but we were able to get right in. Staff was friendly and able to make recommendations. This is a must for me. The interior was beautifully decorated and relaxing. Back to those fajitas- i have not stopped dreaming about those. We shared the regular beef fajitas. The clarified butter dipping was a game changer. Great experience! read more

This is absolutely one of our favorite places. We've been over 10 times since they've opened and we've always had great service. If you're going on the weekend, be prepared for a little bit of a wait but I'm so glad they now have an option to check in online!! read more

Well, everything Marty B does is amazing and this new Texican restaurant is no different. The margaritas are top-notch and be sure to try that $45 one! We had cheese enchiladas and soft tacos with beef fajita meat. All entrées were excellent and their Charro beans are about a 12 out of 10. We ordered the brownie dessert which is more like chocolate cake, but it was ginormous and probably big enough for at least four people, maybe six. They're working on their outdoor patio, which will probably be open by the time I finish this post. Be sure to check them out and I'm sure with it being a new restaurant there's going to be a wait. They do not take reservations. Sitting at the bar is very nice, it's gorgeous and of course you get to watch all the amazing bartenders. read more

Thought the pricing was high for the quality of food. My wife and I eill probably not go there again.

Went here for a blind date. We sat at the bar to wait for our table, and we ended up staying at the bar. The tall young man, I believe his name was Elliott, was so kind and personable. Every single employee was amazing! Juan took care of us later and suggested a frozen chocolate drink with whipped cream. We ordered it and waited, and waited, and waited, and finally realized the restaurant had closed and it was almost 11pm. We got busy chatting, waiting for our order, but we had cashed out and I guess they forgot about us. it was nice they did not come and rush us off, but we wanted what we ordered. Marty B's has some of the very best restaurants ever, so I count this as a slight oversight. I attempted to call the establishment for a week after our visit, but they d not open until later in the day, and I am busy with friends and family that time of the evening. Too many other Mexican options in the area that are just as good. read more

They did it again! Marty B.'s sister restaurant Cactus Canyon is such a good New Mexican spot in Argyle. My favorite dish is the fajitas! Our favorite appetizer is a poblano queso and the dessert to die for is the pistachio caramel ice cream pie. So good, we have been there three times and every time the customer service food and ambience is 5 star! read more

Was a very nice place, the wait staff was very attentive and made our meal more special. The food was great and everything was perfect. Really liked the ambiance very upscale modern vibe. All the Marty B restaurants always deliver above expectations read more

Food and mixed drinks were good altho extremely overpriced for Mexican food. Chicken enchiladas or Quesadillas should not count $20+. Basic house margarita is tasty but $9 for a very small glass! No happy hour prices on drinks or bar bites either is a deterrent compared to other competing establishments. Restaurant is very loud and tables / booths are small and cramped. Not a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere to enjoy a meal with friends & family. The service was excellent, with a lot of staff but almost too much. I understand it's a new footprint for this chain of restaurants owned by Marty and his partners, and trying to draw business from the surrounding neighborhoods in the growing area of Argyle, but its a little too pretentious / expensive for the average family to frequent on a regular basis. read more

Marty B did it again! The food was amazing, service was top notch. They truly go out of their way to make it a great dinner.

Good food. Long wait Saturday so we went to the bar. Everything is expensive and while good they have food a less expensive Mexican restaurant could do you well. Drunks are good but not regular prices. This is a top notch place and the looks are fine. Parking is huge and line was an hour plus at 6 pm. Go on a weekday. Fish was a red snapper covered with a read sauce that detracted from the flavor of fish. The appetizers we good and you should try them and stop. read more

We had an AMAZING experience at Cactus Canyon. The service was 10/10 and the food was so delicious. Our server, Herby, was incredible and very attentive. Nick, the bar manager, was kind and generous to let us try the frozen espresso martini. Needless to say, we have found our new date night spot! read more

Always a great dining experience! The staff is exceptional and the food delicious. I love the Cactus Canyon salad, the guacamole and the skinny margaritas! The lighted bar is so cool and sets a very cool vibe. Highly recommended. read more

Great food Great Service Great Margaritas Ambiance is great too. Love the Mexican Eggrolls and the Filet Enchiladas. The Frozen espresso martini is a must read more

I've only ordered here to go but even after a 20 min drive home, the food tasted so fresh and good. My husband and I split fajitas and had leftovers for a whole other meal, the portions were fantastic! Being part of the Marty B family, we expected high quality and taste but it exceeded our expectations. It was a bit pricey for basic Mexican food but the taste was on par with Marty B's quality. Definitely will be back to try the food sitting down! read more

Love this addition to the Eddie B family of restaurants. We've been here twice and left both times saying, we need to come back soon. The combo fajitas were exquisitely tender and flavorful. I rave about the smoky refried beans and my husband says the margaritas are the best. The service was stellar and atmosphere beautifully done. read more

We waited a few months to try this place because it always looks like there is a wait. I shouldn't have waited.... I was missing out! The salsa is roasted, served warm, and is so good! I got the fajitas with the stuffed shimp. I recommend this! We also had the poblano queso that was good. The service was outstanding and very attentive. I didn't love the spicy margarita. It was too sweet. I would not order it again. I will be back for the food. read more

When I tell you I'm picky when it comes to Mexican food, I am picky! But let me tell you, I totally recommend Cactus Canyon. The fajitas are tender and just delicious. The poblano queso is to die for. The flour tortillas are homemade not store bought. The sopapilla cheesecake is yummy. And the alcoholic drinks are just that...alcohol. Nice and strong. The ambience is relaxing. I could go on and on, everything we've had did not disappoint. The managers and waitstaff are awesome. Just go, you will not regret it. 10/10. read more

Food was just ok. Pricey for what you get. Service was excellent. Would rather go to Marty's other restaurants. They are better. read more

Perfect experience! Food was great. Atmosphere was amazing. Little Uptown flair right in our own back yard. Thanks for another great place Marty! read more

My third time visiting Cactus Canyon and once again left disappointed. The food is average at best and extremely overpriced. The ambiance is nice but if I'm paying $27 for enchiladas they better be extraordinary. Have not tried their drinks but would assume the value is just as bad. My same group ate at Gloria's 3 days later and couldn't stop commenting how much better the food tasted and it was less $$ read more

The food was delicious & an upgrade for Tex-Mex in the area. But the service was outstanding. Our waiter, Bryce, was very pleasant & went out of his way to make our visit enjoyable. One of our party ordered the tacos & found the beef lacking in flavor. When she shared that with Bryce he promptly summoned the assistant manager, Seth. Seth went and taste-tested the taco meat, apologized & agreed that it was pretty bland & not up to their standards. He said that this would be corrected immediately. And then they unexpectedly brought a 2nd taco plate in a take-out package. Also, they served us a free-of-charge delicious chocolate martini for the table. They couldn't have been more gracious to go out of their way to make our experience pleasurable. It was quite a drive for us Fort Worthians but well worth it. We will be back. Be warned-- their margaritas are very good but VERY strong & 2 had me inebriated. It was good that I didn't have to drive. But on 2nd thought that chocolate martini might have had something to do with it. LOL!! read more

We tried Cactus Canyon for the first time last night, and everything was great. The food was really good (a little pricey for Tex-Mex, but very good), ambiance was very nice even if a little loud, and the service was outstanding. We had the stuffed poblano and filet enchiladas. While the enchiladas were very good, the poblano stole the show. It was outstanding. Our waiter was also very attentive, the restaurant was well stocked with runners, and managers were around checking on and visiting with everyone there. You can tell when a restaurant is well run because the staff here were working their butts off and not just standing around like we've experienced lately at other nice restaurants. They also aren't walking around asking you what you need...they see something you need and they just take care of it. One tip for anyone wanting to try them, use their waitlist feature on their website before you head up there to save you time. This place has a wait for a reason. Use their waitlist function so you don't have to sit around at the restaurant. Great visit.....We'll certainly be back! read more

Although their overall star rating shows 4.1 some of the reviews made me have mixed feelings about trying it. When I tell you this was one of the most delicious meals i have ever eaten and with a perfect relaxing atmosphere I have been to in a while, please listen! The waiter, Herbie was absolutely a gem! Great knowledge around food and recommendations and personable to say the least! The garlic butter that came with the chicken fajitas was addicting and to die for! I felt the delicious food was priced right for the quality. We also got the tacos al carbon...mmmm!!! Will be back!! read more

The food is always delicious and the atmosphere is always fun! Tge staff is friendly and attentive. read more

We have been 4 times and had excellent experiences each time. Marty visited us on two of the occasions and asked for our feedback which was a nice touch. Love the atmosphere on the patio, especially when it's a bit cold out and they have all the heaters on with a cozy fire in the fireplace. The beef fajitas are my fav and my husband typically orders the carne asada which was off menu at the time. No complaints! We would, however, love it if they had an on-menu specialty Tex Mex style steak perhaps accompanied with a cheese enchilada of sorts. Their guacamole appetizer is excellent too (and we are picky about our guacamole). Our service has always been fun yet professional even when they were going through minor growing pains upon opening. Yes, it would be nice if they could fix the amplified sound inside somehow, but we like the patio anyway. Overall love it and will return!! read more

Over priced Mexican food. 40 dollars for single fajitas lmao gtfo! Catering the stick up ass people in canyon falls! Got up the road for good Mexican food that's not priced out the ass! Save yourself from being ripped off read more

We ate there tonight for the first time with a group of 14 (5 toddlers LOL) and our service was amazing! We had Karlee and a gentleman, wish we could remember his name to give a well deserved shout out. But everything was amazing! Service top tier, food 10/10 and atmosphere was perfect. 45 minute drive for us but we will absolutely be back! Managers were wonderful too. Very attentive and present from the moment we walked in to dropping the check. Not a bad thing to say! read more

5 across the board! Considering this was their first day open, I was expecting some sort of hiccups, but man was I wrong. Absolutely excellent atmosphere, stellar service, and out of this world flavorful food. The staff truly were above and beyond amazing, and every second was perfect. If I tried my hardest, I still could not find one negative aspect of our dinner. Great job to our server Matthew S as well; you rocked! The food we got was: Cactus Canyon Salad, Chicken Enchiladas, and Birria Style Brisket Tacos (pictured) and every plate was scraped clean. If you haven't been to Cactus Canyon yet, you need to go ASAP. This is definitely going to be a regular spot for us. read more

We went for the 2nd time tonight with some friends who wanted to try it. Here is our experience.... 1- I went to order drinks at the bar while we waited for our table and I ordered a Michelada. Bartender said he didn't have the ingredients to make it. When we got our table, I asked the waiter if that was true and he said NO, they can make it. Ended up being ok. 3/5 2 - When the waiter came by to take our drink order, which is when I ordered the Michelada, he took my half full margarita thinking I was done with it. 3 - After ordering drinks we were all about fed up with the noise. Horrible. You can't have a conversation without yelling. They need to hang some fabrics from the ceiling and on the walls to cut down on the volume. 0/5 4 - We ordered the Queso Blanco. That was decent, along with the chips and salsa 4/5. 5 - Again, just like our initial visit, the food was average. Our rice was undercooked and crunchy. Charro beans were a little bland. 3/5 Atmosphere was nice, but the noice makes it unbearable and difficult to relax and have a conversation over dinner. Upscale prices, but not upscale experience. Overall, I don't think I'll be returning unless they make some changes. Not nearly worth the prices for food that isn't as good as other Tex-Mex in the area. read more

First time at this newer Mexican food spot. It's a Marty B property, so it's definitely a different level than your usual run of the mill Tex mex. We sat at the bar, and started with a couple of cocktails. The "not a Karen Rita" was awesome, although a little pricey at $16. Not a complaint, as you kind of know what you're getting into with drink prices around here. We skipped appetizers and went straight to entrees. Cheese enchiladas were great, with a chili sauce that really pops. It's not your typical out of a can sauce. You can tell it's made with care. We also had the fish tacos, but changed it to grilled vs fried. They were excellent as well. The restaurant is pretty dimly lit, so be forewarned. The bartender had to shine a bar light on our food to make sure it was right. Once again, not a complaint, and it made the place very intimate. We will definitely be returning, as the ceviche is going to need a testing. read more

We just walked out of our first dining experience here, and we will be back. We arrived just a bit before the dinner rush, so there was no wait for seating (you may have an hour or more wait if you come during peak dinner). While the food was spectacular, it's the service that really got my attention. Caesar was our excellent server, but it was obvious that the entire staff was involved in taking care of each guest. With its great atmosphere, food and service, this is at the top of my "favorites" list! read more

Got there at 5:00 and parking lot was full. Was able to get a table for two very quickly. Was surprised when we walked in because it's painted black inside. Usually Mexican restaurants are colorful. It's very nice and very upscale. Service was very good and helpful. Was expecting the food to be more upscale too but unfortunately it wasn't. My husband had a bowl of chicken tortilla soup and he said it was good but not as good as Reata in downtown Fort Worth. I had a taco plate. Two small tacos and some beans and rice. Did I mention it's also expensive. My taco plate was $19. The taco meat didn't have any flavor or seasoning . Just cooked hamburger meat. I've had so much better at Taco Bueno for a lot less money. We each had a margarita, the soup and two tacos for $68. read more

We have eaten at Cactus Canyon twice since they open and look forward to many more visits. The first visit was a little rough, but manager Nick took amazing care of us. All the food was excellent, the Poblano Queso was the best I have had. We ordered it both visits, it will be a must every time we go. The cheese enchiladas was some of the best I have had in a long time. The prices are more expensive than some places around, but the quality of the food and the service are top notch. I guess if you want cheap Mexican food Taco Bell is almost across the street! Love all Mary B's restaurants and everything that the Marty B brand stands for. read more
