I enjoyed all of the salsas at the salsa bar- after almost a week in the Midwest it was good to get some spice;). Our food came out quickly, and the restaurant was clean, although the smell of cleaning solution was pervasive. This is not a good restaurant for vegetarians or people looking to consume less meat, and they don't have fish tacos, much to my 5yo's disappointment. That said, we'd definitely stop in again if we're in the area.

We're thankful for the cashier who helped us customize our food according to dietary needs. Loved the salsa bar & am thankful for the signs that indicate how spicy each salsa is. There are quite a few tables inside where the music booms & a few tables outside right by the parking spaces.

FINALLY a Taco Spot that has REALLY HOT SALSA!…read more I am one of those crazy folks that love to eat uncomfortably hot stuff. I am usually disappointed by sauces that are either not hot enough or hot but don't taste good. Cantina Taco is not one of those places. Their salsa's are DELICIOUS and the pack a punch. I experienced Very Friendly Staff, and very quick service. I ordered Two Tacos, Black bean and Vegan Chorizo with an order of beans and rice. I got their 4 alarm salsa and their Mango Habanero to go with those and a Large Horchata. Everything was VERY very good. The Mango Habanero almost seemed spicier to me and had SO much flavor. I would go back just to get that. THe 4 alarm salsa was also very good but a totally different flavor profile. The Tacos were very generously portioned. The Tacos themselves were good but with the Salsa's they were great. The Rice and beans were good but the portion was a little small. The Horchata was delicious and helped cool me off from the Hot Salsas. I am already preparing to return so that I can try other items of their menu.

We got our food and finished it just in time to see the show. Most people don't realize the pace these employees were working to make that happen, not just for us, but everyone in their restaurant. They were hauling! The food was absolutely delicious, and everything coming out of their kitchen looked equally amazing. They did a great job. We ordered a taco each, and split chips and salsa and rice and beans. The place is clean, cheery, and can't be beat!

I remember when this was a fast food joint, but the interior now is totally different. We were impressed with the change. We were able to be seated quickly. For a Sunday it was pretty busy. They've several TVs around the restaurant so you can watch while eating. The menu is pretty extensive and has something for everyone. Lucky us, they had 5 dollar jumbo lime margaritas and 10 dollar fajitas for their specials that night. We were like sold! The husband saw queso and chips on the menu... needless to say we ordered it ASAP. The queso was pretty damn good. Not bland nor was it watery. Very addicting!! The jumbo frozen margaritas were strong and hit the spot. If I weren't driving, I would've had at least 1 or 2 more. Next time tho!! The chicken fajitas were massive. We honestly expected small portions considering it was the special. It was huge! The fajitas were outstanding. Lots of flavors and super tender. My mom and husband finished theirs. I only had room for half of it. Gotta save room for dessert!! The churro dessert we ordered was to die for. The dessert came in a huge cup with ice cream topped with caramel along with 4 churros. We all inhaled that dessert!! We left full and happy. Great spot overall! Great service and food. Definitely coming back next time I am in town.

I opened up Yelp and found this little taqueria in the cute downtown of Belvedere so we decided to stop here. The inside definitely makes you feel like you're at a family owned restaurant. It reminds me of all of the pizzerias I went to as a kid in New York. The staff are all incredibly friend and funny and were cracking jokes the whole time to our table. They offer a wide selection of Mexican specialties from some of the more common ones to some of the harder to find ones. Lately, I've been on a Gordita kick so I ordered the Gordita dinner. The rice and beans were so good, and the fresh tortillas, along with the beautiful meat inside were all perfect. I wasn't expecting to have such incredible Mexican in this part of the US, but I need to reassess my biased because this was fantastic. Highly recommend!

The window is there if you want to see what the outside world is doing while you eat. The waitress greeted me right away to give me a menu with some chips and salsa. I ordered a chicken burrito and it came within a very reasonable time, considering that I was getting lost in the ambience. I recieved my food and I bit into the very nicely moist chicken that did not have a bad aftertaste by the way. Overall, I think their chicken burrito is great. It was under ten dollars which was awesome. I have a small stomach so it filled me up more than enough for the price. They have authentic mexican coke in a bottle which was nice and cold which made it special. I am definitely going back again. Truly a hidden gem. Don't be afraid to get lost in it.

No complaints about the execution. The problem is the pricing. A lot of the menu is simply overpriced for what this place is. The prices are getting into Uncle Julio's territory, which was disappointing. I came in expecting a solid step above Qdoba without having to drop $20+ on a single meal. Instead, the food delivers on that promise better than the prices do.
