    Kantunil is a hidden gem that deserves way more hype. This place is consistently amazing -- and somehow never busy, which makes it even more of a treasure. I've tried everything from appetizers to dessert, and not a single dish has disappointed. Every bite is packed with flavor, fresh, and clearly made with care. The aesthetic gives total "I'm-in-Disney-World" vibes -- think epcot. And yes, they totally pixie dust us with samples of drinks (which is such a cute touch). Speaking of drinks, do not skip the cucumber margarita. It's hands-down my favorite and super refreshing. Whether you're planning a romantic dinner, a fun lunch with friends, or just need a quiet spot to catch up over great food and conversation -- Kantunil has you covered. Can't recommend it enough.

    Great steak fajitas
    Bart C.

    Where has this place been all of my life?? Everything was fantastic. The chips and salsas were delicious, homemade and warm. Service, drinks, food and pricing were all amazing. I ordered the steak fajitas and my wife ordered a steak burrito. Both were outstanding. Margaritas and Modelo on tap were great. We will be regulars.

    Chicken mole enchiladas with a Spanish rice pyramid

    Just discovered this place yesterday! All I can say is the food is first rate. A cut above, I would almost say gourmet. The chips were a cut above, as was the salsa, the unique bean dip, all complementary, and the guacamole was super fresh and delicious. I had chicken enchiladas with mole sauce and it was perfect, with a classy presentation, unique flavor, and ideal quantity, not too much! Ambiance is pleasant despite strip mall location and some traffic noise if you sit outside, from the 190. It's not bad, and did not distract. Service was prompt and very courteous. Oh: the margs were incredible! I had the top shelf and had to control myself not to order a second! We will definitely be back.

    Enchiladas Suizas

    So back story I was not real happy with Habanero's which used to be here and so I was hesitant to go back. Let's just say I am glad I did... the food is so much better and the service was on point. We started with the house margaritas and our waiter hooked us up with the Happy Hour Specials! The bean dip that comes with the chips is amazing with a little kick and the salsa was also good. I ordered the Asada Fajitas with homemade corn tortillas and it was awesome, my wife got the enchiladas and she loved them as well, then we ordered the corn flan and demolished it! We walked out full and happy! Will be back!

    Kantunil Artisan Mexican in Covington.

    My wife and I stopped by Kantunil for Sunday brunch and once more enjoyed the experience. If you're ready for somewhat more upscale Mexican dining than you might find at your typical Mexican restaurant, Kantunil in Covington might be just for you. Interesting takes on artisanal Mexican fare, signature cocktails, tasteful surroundings, and excellent service are the norm.

    Basically the old habs!! Would love more lime and seasoning in the guac. The cheese tortilla is the best.

    Our visit to LUMORA was such a great experience. The restaurant is beautiful, very aesthetically…read morepleasing, and has a really nice atmosphere. We started with the chicken wings with honey barbecue sauce. The wings were cooked perfectly and had a good flavor. Next were the bacon wrapped shrimp and these were one of my favorite items of the night. The hot honey sauce was so good and the presentation made them even better. The cheese pull and sauce dripping down really sealed the deal for me. Easily a 10/10. The brussels sprouts completely surprised me because they were SO good. They were topped with pecans, cranberries, pepper jelly, and parmesan cheese, and all of the toppings worked so well together to elevate the flavor of the brussels sprouts. Perfectly cooked and full of flavor. I've been back just for those alone. 10/10. I also tried the Bayou Mac & Cheese which was creamy, flavorful, and cooked well. My only complaint is that it was topped with tomatoes, which wasn't listed on the menu, so I would've asked for it without them, but no big deal. We also had the Cajun Pasta which was good as well. Everything came out hot & Overall, the service was excellent, everything we had was really enjoyable, and the experience matched the aesthetic of the restaurant. I'd definitely return.

Lumora is…read morerelatively new and is by the same folks responsible for The District in Ponchatoula, which is one of our favs. Located on Highway 190, Lumora has a stylish, contemporary persona that is decidedly upscale, but still possesses a comfortable, laid-back vibe that is quite appealing. Service was friendly and efficient and Taylor took excellent care of us. General Manager Josie dropped by our table to share info on Lumora and her visit was appreciated. There is a full bar and a wide selection of specialty cocktails. Today I had a Blood Orange Mezcal Margarita and my wife had an Ex-Presso Martini. Both were great! I highly recommend the Mezcal spice served up on the Margarita's rim in place of the standard salt. We then enjoyed the Zydeco Eggroll appetizer, which the pepper jelly garnish made truly memorable. I then followed with the Buffalo Chicken Pinsa and my wife had the Hot Honey Pepperoni Pinsa. Both were excellent; hot, pleasantly spicy, and generously portioned. We took home a lot of food. Although we had no room for dessert, several on the menu looked quite sumptuous. In short, Lumora Kitchen and Bar is highly recommended! It's a great spot for lunch, happy hour drinks, or a special date night. We will return.

    My wife and I live in Kenner and have been enjoying lunch once a month for many years with another…read morecouple who live on the North Shore. We have our favorites on both sides of the lake, but I recently read some great reviews somewhere online about Crazy Pig Southern Kitchen with locations in both Mandeville and Covington. After speaking with our friends we decided to dine at the Covington location of Crazy Pig Southern Kitchen. Inside the entrance, the restaurant posts their policy that you will not be seated at a table until all parties have arrived, which is understandable considering the huge amount of business they have. My wife and I arrived before our friends who were running a little late. The Hostess, Jill, asked me how many in our party and I told her four, but the other couple was running late and would be arriving in about 20 minutes. We took a seat in the empty waiting area inside the entrance. The restaurant appeared to have only one or two empty tables available inside when I arrived on a beautiful day. Five to ten minutes later the waiting area was full (approx. ten people). The restaurant was extremely noisy with all their customers enjoying their meals and conversing with friends/family. I noticed that there were approximately ten tables located in front of the restaurant in a beautiful covered patio, so I asked Jill if we could have a table outside once our friends arrived in about five more minutes because one of them was somewhat physically handicapped. There was only one empty table in the patio at the time. Jill explained that since she had a reservation in the patio for a party of eight that would be arriving soon, so she had been holding it for another available outside table to put together to accommodate this party. However, she said she would gladly give us the table. By this time, the waiting room was full of people and overflowing outside the entrance. I had given my seat to a lady and stepped outside to wait for my friends, who I noticed had arrived and parking their car. I told Jill and she seated us at the table in the patio. The four of us ordered different things on the menu, which were fantastic. Although the restaurant was packed, the waitress AND Jill visited our table several times to ensure we were enjoying our meals. Crazy Pig Southern Kitchens' ambiance, service, menu items (along with portion sizes) and prices were absolutely astounding. We were all very impressed and grateful for a beautiful dining experience. Special thanks to Jill who was abundantly pleasant to deal with. Crazy Pig Southern Kitchen certainly placed Jill in the right position.

She highly recommended the Blacken Shrimp and Grits. When my food came out, it was a large plate with plenty of shrimp. The food was amazing. I got my Southern/ Creole craving fulfilled. I'm definitely coming back! I wish they would open longer so I can grab late lunch or early dinner.

The restaurant is decorated very nice, some modern touches but gives warehouse vibes with a cute grass wall for photos. The menu has a variety of pizzas, calzones, sandwiches, pastas and wines. I didn't realize what was getting myself into when I ordered the loaded fries as an appetizer the food does take time but it is extremely worth it! The fries came out fresh and hot with a bunch of bacon jalapeños and cheese. The owner was so kind he sent us mozzarella sticks and marinara on the house. For our entrees we ordered a large pepperoni pizza, cheese pizza, veggie pizza and chicken Alfredo pasta. Each pizza was so delicious, the sauce was clearly made fresh, the dough was fluffy but crispy it was a great combination. The chicken Alfredo pasta sauce was made fresh along with the pasta sauce. Nothing tasted as if it came from a jar everything was made fresh to order. We all left so full and happy after dinner. Our servers Aubrey and Haley were amazing and gave great recommendations and honest opinions about the menu. I'm excited to try new things on my next trip.
