    Catina Locale

    I tried this place I heard a lot about. I wasn't disappointed the variety of tacos. The salsa was delicious it had such a different taste. The waitress was waitress was sweet and recommended the dishes we tried. I will definitely be going back.

    We stopped by Taco Tuesday for lunch and was not disappointed. The service is great. The Tuesday specials are yummy. We will definitely come back to try other flavors. Great margaritas choices!!

    Stayed away from the tacos this time and had the tin can nachos. Shared them with the wife and were pretty good I would say. Reason for sharing was so we could get dessert. Had the Smokey pineapple slices with ice cream. Ice cream was one of the best I've tasted but I bet the chef hasn't tried these because all you can taste is smoke. Just like you put your head in a bonfire, no pineapple taste at all. Lose the smoke and just grill the pineapple. Service was attentive and pleasant. Would I go back, maybe in another 3 years as the food is still nothing to write home about.

    I was impressed with my first visit here, a Thursday evening. I enjoyed the decor they have in their space. We had a party of 7 and we were seated immediately. The chips and salsa were delicious, we also got some queso. I ordered the dynamite shrimp taco, carne asada taco, and belly taco. I was a bit disappointed with the carne asada taco. The dynamite shrimp taco had a good little kick (spiciness). My favorite of the three was definitely the belly taco, which was surprising to me. I will be back to try more of their food!

    I've always enjoyed Cantina Locale, but their service after Hurricane Helene was unreal. So grateful to the management and staff that were able to make it there to serve the community, and it was great to hear that management was working around employee schedules in the midst of an unanticipated natural disaster. The food & drinks were great, the music was awesome, the wifi was so helpful and appreciated, and the overall experience with their team was nothing but 5-star! Not to mention their pricing was the same as a normal day, no price gouging to be seen. Honest people and delicious refreshments!

    Cantina Locale, I have missed out for so long. I've been told by my daughter, we'd love it there. Finally, her mother and I made it there, and boy, she was right! The vibe was chill, but very on the go. The service was amazing. Our server rocked at her job, and she knew it. The drinks were amazing! Skinny Girl Vodkarittas with blueberry puré OMG! so delicious and their signature cocktail the Coco, WOW! The decore is so everything all in one. Let's not forget the food. Their Queso, hands down, have every Mexican restaurant in Augusta beat and should be feeling proud of it. The daily specials are amazing, the only reason you should ever be eating the same thing more than once when in a time of a week that you may go it's only because it's your favorite. Here are some pictures of the decor and the drinks and food my wife and I have enjoyed. Cantina locale is our new Tuesday place.

    I think this place is a fun spot to eat, but definitely a little on the average side- their tacos are pricy, but they do taste good! I've been here a few times, and the quality has fluctuated each time, so I'm a bit unsure how to rate them. I do personally think that I really enjoyed the Ahi Tuna taco, the balance of wasabi and fish was great, and I thought that it was consistently the same quality. I think the chips and salsa are also average, but the drinks are great- I personally liked the margarita! The staff is really nice and they took some fun photos of us, so we have no complaints on that end.

    Came for happy hour and early dinner with friends. I think they have a patio but we sat in a booth inside. Happy hour I think is until 5pm and it includes $5 house marg and sangria. We munched on chips and salsa with our margs while we ordered and waited for our food. The Baja bowl was tasty and a large portion. Our server recommended adding queso to it and it's a definitely a good choice. My friends hubby got some tacos. He enjoyed the pork belly one more than the mahi....prices were a bit expensive for each taco at $4 to $5.

    Tonight was a great night to sit outside and celebrate my cousins birthday!!! The weather was lovely and they had live music. We were with a large party, easily 20 people, so it took a while for drinks and food. The staff seemed a little overwhelmed because there was another large party almost equal in size as us outside as well. We were seated a little before 6:30 and food orders were taken around 6:50 but the food didn't start coming out to the table until after 8 pm. We sampled the chorizo dip, fried avocado, and the street corn bites, all three were delicious! The shrimp bowl, and mahi taco were okay but the kids quesadilla quiet cheesy and yummy. The kids menu only contains the entrée so any side items are sold a la carte. The drink special for the night was a Cucumber Vodka'Rita and it was very refreshing. The CoCo Rita which is made with rum instead of tequila was delicious as well. The restaurant is lovely and the vibe of the atmosphere very hip. For me, I wouldn't necessarily go again for a meal, but I'd go for a drink or two and to listen to the live music.

    Brisket and Belly Taco

    Definitely a hidden spot for fantastic tacos! Only one taco for each but you can order as many tacos as you want. Prices are legit with the all the flavor that comes with each bite. Birria Taco comes with two. Ambiance was very quiet but we were the first ones for lunch. Definitely a home vibe feeling. Service was wonderful as the waiter asked constantly if anything else we wanted. Definitely check this place out if you looking for authentic taco with some great seasoning of the protein.

    Live music, good food new friends

    I always try to give a business a second chance. Bad idea on my part. Service was bad. We practically had to beg for flatware, we never got the additional napkins we asked for. Not wanting to make another Truffalo mistake I ordered a taco bowl. The best part was the deep fried shell. Enough said

    Yum! Stopped in after a grueling mid day tennis match and was not disappointed. Fun ambiance, great service, and fantastic food. The food came out quickly. The bowl came together perfectly with added salsa and candied jalapeños. I also got the pinto beans. They were pretty good too. Next time I'll come back to try some of their crafted cocktails.

    This is probably one of my favorite places to get tacos in Augusta. They just have so many options for their tacos and have many non-traditional variations. I got their hot honey, pork belly, and steak tacos. They were delicious and are my go-to's. I also split the ghost pepper nachos with friends. They were just okay to me, didn't really taste the ghost pepper. It was a nice dish to share, but I definitely was already full after eating my 3 tacos. Also the complimentary chips and salsa are super fresh and delicious as well!

    My fiancée picked this spot for lunch. The outside looked cool and who can pass up a Mexican…read morerestaurant?! The inside is pretty cool! It's super bright, colorful, spacious and loved the decor! They were not busy so we were seated right away. I was blown away with their food and drink menu. Very reasonable in pricing. Good selection and has something for everyone. Including vegetarians. We ordered: -House Margarita pitcher -Three beef hard shell tacos -Burrito Supreme with beans and Spanish rice. I loved the complimentary chips and salsa. It had great flavor. The house Margarita was amazing. We didn't wait long for our food. We both enjoyed it! Love my tacos! It wasn't messy to eat and tasty. My fiancée enjoyed his meal as well. What a great experience. Service was good, bathrooms clean and food was great! I highly recommend you check them out.

    My lady and I happened to find this spot while walking around downtown Augusta. I thought it looked…read moretoo good to pass up. If you know anything about me, you know I can't pass up good Mexican food, and this was that and then some. We popped in for lunch and were seated right away. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We loved all the artwork and the laid back feel of the place. The menu was loaded with lots of tasty options at great prices. Here's what we had: -House Margarita pitcher -Three beef hard shell tacos -Burrito Supreme w/ rice and beans They brought our food out very quickly and everything was great. The margaritas were very tasty too. Our server was extremely attentive and made sure our drinks were always filled. Even the chips and salsa were delicious. We'd absolutely go back here again.
