    Chicken, steak, shrimp fajitas & California Burrito

    El Chingon had amazing service! Our waiter was so nice. Good restaurant for a quick bite!

    The wife and I needed a break after driving 6 hours from SC to AL, and found this little gem thanks to Yelp reviews! Just had margaritas, guacamole and queso, all high quality and hand made. We will be back for lunch on the return trip for sure! Great service and very authentic food.

    Lunch fajitas

    I'm from California and the Bay Area at that. Which the bay has a very diverse set of food. With that said this little Mexican spot over here in the small town of Bonifay has been a real surprise. I have been working out here in Florida for the last 8 months and most Mexican food spots have been borderline gross. This place gives chips and salsa, a huge lunch menu and the food is top notch. If you're in the area check this place out I highly recommend it. They are also very attentive and stay on top of your needs here. Very good customer service to go along with a nice atmosphere with comfort food!

    Now I understand why this restaurant has such great reviews. We were on the hunt for something good…read moreto eat and happened to stumble upon this spot, so glad we did. We chose to sit outside, and while the service was great, the food was even better. For starters, I had the orange margarita (recommended by our waiter), and wow, it was delicious. I've never had one quite like it. For my entrée, I ordered a mix of three tacos, and each one was packed with flavor. The only downside was the number of tiny flies outside, they kept finding their way into my drink. Not sure if that's typical, but I'd probably opt to sit inside next time because of it. That said, the food and overall experience were really great, and I'd definitely recommend checking this place out!

We stood there for a while trying to figure out if we needed to seat ourselves or if we should wait on somebody. We were finally noticed and directed to a table. After being seated they brought us chips and salsa. For the most part, I love chips at a Mexican restaurant! They're always so thin and crispy and taste fresh. I guess you can go wrong in some instances, but these were PERFECT! Thin, crisp, and salted. And the salsa was just right. It wasn't too spicy. I ended up ordering the quesadilla and my partner ordered a combination plate. Her combination plate had a tamale that she didn't want so I took it. I can say that the tamale tasted like it came out of a can. It was not authentic at all. I can't go wrong with the quesadilla that's pretty much my go-to. She really enjoys her tacos and she said they were pretty good. Overall the food was okay.

    We were in Destin, FL on a family vacation and decided to visit Cantina Laredo with a party of 14…read more I had called ahead hoping to make a reservation, but was told they don't take reservations, so we expected a pretty long wait when we arrived. To our surprise, the staff was incredibly accommodating. The patio was full, but they were able to seat our entire group in a private dining room. It ended up being even better than we expected--quiet, comfortable, and perfect for a large family gathering. Our server did an outstanding job throughout the evening. Managing a table of 14 people is no easy task, but he was attentive, friendly, and kept everything running smoothly from start to finish. We started with three orders of the tableside guacamole, and it was a huge hit. Watching the server prepare it fresh right at our table made the experience even more enjoyable. The food was excellent all around. I ordered the Brisket tacos, which were flavorful and delicious. Our son had the chicken enchiladas, and they looked amazing and tasted just as good. My husband ordered the carne asada plate, and the steak was incredibly tender, juicy, and full of flavor. For dessert, we ordered four of the apple pies with a scoop of vinalla ice cream served on sizzling skillets, and they were absolutely outstanding. The sizzling presentation was fun, and the warm apple pie was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. From the attentive service to the delicious food and the unexpected private dining room, Cantina Laredo made dining with a large group easy and enjoyable. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely be back the next time we're vacationing in the Sandestin area. Highly recommend! Excellent service, great food, and a wonderful experience for a large group. We would definitely be back next year!

On this occasion the quality and quantity didn't fit the price and was very insulting! I ordered Mahi Mahi with the asparagus and rice. It was the size of a child's meal for starters. The Mahi Mahi was VERY dry. I did tell my server but nothing was done, only an apology. I was also surprised at the tiny size of the asparagus and small portion of rice. I didn't push it because my husband gets embarrassed and will eat a disappointing meal and never complain. This was ridiculous however. His meal was also pretty small for the cost. Maybe it's changed since Covid rocked our lives in so many negative ways that restaurants are cutting back, but to be dried out fish isn't acceptable. I wish our server would have at least offered to replace it. I was just as mad at myself for not asking for a new dish or my money back. Our server was nice. But that didn't make anything better with my meal! Next time I won't be swayed by my dining partners desire to not complain. He also gave the server a VERY generous tip. He's just a really good guy that way but also gets taken advantage of in these type situations! I feel Cantina Laredo should give us a do-over.

We saw a billboard off the highway for this restaurant, so we decided to give it a try. Location is a little unsuspecting because it is dark and next to a dollar tree, but the interior is quite large and well decorated. We were seated right away, and the server gave us chips and salsa immediately. The chips were nice and fresh and warm, and the salsa was fantastic. ServerO is great. He gave us good recommendations and said that everything that has a hat on the menu is usually their most popular. As for the food, we ordered the fajitas mix. I had chicken, beef, and shrimp for two. It is about $27 and came with a lot of food. Definitely not for two, maybe even three. The rice plate came with rice, beans, avocado, as well as two sets of tortillas, which is about three each. It came in a serving plate and was overall pretty good. Would recommend getting again for the amount of food and the taste. We also ordered the torta. Unfortunately, for this one, it wasn't that great. The torta is just a sandwich, pretty much, with whatever kind of meat you have inside and some tomatoes and lettuce. We got the carne asada, but it was super dry and chewy. Would not recommend the carne asada and the torta. This one was about $13, I believe. In total, it was around 55 with tax and tip for a party of 4, so it was actually pretty well priced. We left pretty full, so I would recommend, but wouldn't say it was the best food we have had but good enough for us on the road drive back.

I tried asking what region of Mexico were the dishes inspired by. In reviewing the menu I was confused, there was a very small selection of traditional Mexican dishes. Where was the Chili Verde, Carnitas, Birria, Pozole, Lengua, Chili Colorado, Tamales, Tostadas, just to name a few. I ended up getting the Chicken enchiladas with green sauce, cheese, cream and fresh onions and beans on the side. Needless to say I was extremely disappointed. My order came out and the enchiladas were actually Cold!!! Sent it back, when the order came back out they were hot. They had very little green sauce, lightly sprinkled cheese on top, none inside and cream and onion also on top. The chicken was shredded with a red color. I have to say that, because there was no sauce in the meat it was dry and I felt, it did not have flavor. The beans were actually not bad, I ate those with the chips. There were several groups of people in the restaurant enjoying themselves and appeared to be enjoying the food as well. However I feel if you want traditional Mexican food, like you would get in Baja region this is definitely NOT the place to go.
