    Birria plate
    Andrea F.

    I'm so so happy we found this place! The staff was so friendly and the restaurant is decorated with such a fun style. We stopped in for lunch and had amazing food and drinks. I had the Birria plate and my husband had the chimichangas and we were both very pleased with our meal! We will definitely come back soon.

    This past weekend some friends and I visited La Cantina and were very impressed. I'm not sure if they've made adjustments since some of these other reviews or what but we were all happy! First, I felt like they did a great job with the renovation. It doesn't give DQ vibes at all. And it was very clean (including the bathrooms which I'm sure they put a lot of work into since the previous owner). We really liked the chips and salsa, the salsa was a little on the runny side but had a lot of flavors and was just a tad spicy which was great (not overwhelming but too spicy for kids). We got a variety of dishes including tacos, enchiladas, flutas, chimichangas, and of course a kids chicken tender with smiley fries (big hit with the little ones). Over all we were all really happy with our meals. Definitely more options and more authentic than the other Mexican restaurant in Cedarburg. You can tell the staff knows what they're doing with their menu items and the tastiness of the food. Our server was great, and food was hot and ready very quickly. We will definitely be back. I only wish for their sake they had a more unique name as I worry people will inevitably end up going to the wrong restaurant.

    Frozen Margarita flight

    Had a reservation for 10 of us for a work party. Our server, Arturo, was wonderful! Love the location and design; very spacious! Margarita flight? Delicious, and you get your money's worth of tequila! I got pollo rancheros--queso, beans, rice, chicken, guacamole--everything was mouth-savory good! We live 25 min away, but we'll be back!

    Carne azada taco plate with rice and beans
    Zack F.

    Decided to stop in and grab some tacos to go on my way home. It's nearly renovated so everything is super clean. The menu is pretty large so there's probably something for everyone including a decent vegetarian menu. I tried to inquire whether or not options were vegan and they were not able to answer at this time. I ended up going with the Carne Asada tacos, which included three tacos, rice, and beans and tortilla chips along with one hot cup. Once I got home, I was immediately impressed by the size of the three tacos. They appear to be traditional Mexican style tacos, but they are in very large tortillas and there is a huge amount of meat. I would give the tacos themselves a four out of five. The rice and beans were also quite good, but maybe a little small? Overall I think the value of $15 for the three tacos and rice and beans is super legit. I will definitely be coming back to this place on a regular basis!!

Not…read morebeing a Cedarburg resident it's an extra 20 minutes out of the way if I'm stopping after work or a 40 minute round trip if I'm just heading from home, but I'm happy to make the trip. Their menu consists largely of Mac & Cheese, wraps, paninis and frozen custard. Being a Wisconsinite it really resonates with me. I get the classic "original" mac and cheese every time. It's always consistently good and it's still warm after my 20 minute drive home. They use a less common noodle that is quite large and the portion is generous too. The other menu item I'm always to is the shake of the week. They always have a different one and they're always good. Oh, and I have to mention their salads. Not for me, but my mother likes them as much a salad she gets anywhere else. Another thing I appreciate is the fact they have an app. An app for a local place isn't common in my experience. This makes it easy to order in advance so you can skip the line, skip the phone call and better still earn rewards. Finally, I have to commend a few of the guys who work here. Two gentlemen in particular who both are always pleasant and personable, which alone is commendable, but they've also both been there a few years. They both seem to be managers, but I'm not sure, though I wanted to recognize them. Both are older than the general staff and both are there various weekdays.

With a lot of variety and friendly service, this definitely is a great go-to place. My Mom and I came here for a light dinner and ordered the crab cake and mussels appetizers as our entrees. Thinking that wouldn't be enough food, we added the arugula beet salad. Everything came out pretty quickly, and the mussels portion and salad were enormous. Each dish was excellent. The mussels, a recommendation by our helpful server, were especially good - the mussels were cooked perfectly, without an unopened mussel in the bunch, and the white wine-garlic-fennel broth was seasoned well and had the classic flavor I was hoping for. The only miss was that the bread provided was only barely toasted and a little chewy. The salad was a wonderful surprise: dressed properly with a nice vinaigrette, it had toasted pepitas, creamy goat cheese, fennel, and beets that were not overly earthy. My Mom enjoyed her crab cakes, which had a bit of a spicy kick. I wanted a little dessert and chose their Door County cherry ice cream. I would strongly recommend leaving room for it. It had a fantastic, creamy texture, tasting homemade. The ice cream itself had a natural flavor of almonds with a hint of cherry, was studded with dark chocolate and cherry pieces, and topped with a cute fish-shaped cookie. One of the best ice creams I've had. Like the food portions, it came as three big scoops, so it's good for sharing. The atmosphere is casual and fun, though be prepared for a pretty high noise level when it's full - not from music, but from everyone having a great time with friends and family. I'd recommend getting a reservation, and they're conveniently on OpenTable.
