Cool outdoor seating area...  tables were clean and spaced out nicely.
Shayn L.

We were out running some errands when we saw this tacos truck and decided to give them a try... Tacos were amazing so we are glad we stopped... Cool outdoor seating area spaced out nicely! We will stop again or look up where to find this truck again on our next visit to town! We both ordered 3 Fresh tasting Carne Asada tacos with all the fixings for $5 which to us was a great buy for some authentic tacos... Stop and see for yourself. Takes minutes to order and then to receive the food they yell your number. I got the hot sauce on my tacos and they were perfect with just the right amount of zip! My wife got the green mild sauce and loved them.

Steak, chicken, and fish tacos plus salsa and chips

This place is great. We went to the sit down restaurant (not the truck) on College Ave. Here's a breakdown: Pros: -Fantastic tasting tacos and chips! -Both tacos and chips tasted freshly prepared, and was mucho deliciousO! -Interior is clean and looks like an interior decorator with a large budget put it together. -Pay as you leave screen calculates tips for you. -Prices are reasonable Cons: -No cerveza ...yet -Limited menu -Location off the beaten track Bottom line: it's worth the trip at least once. I'll definitely come back with friends.

Tacos was pretty good, full of meat and toppings. Can't beat the price 3 tacos for $5.

Love these guys. They make some really solid tacos, and are all over town. Glad they added a few nights at the mall so they are close to home. Quick, friendly service. Tasty steak tacos with all the fixings. 3 for $5 tacos. Basic menu, but that's OK!

This is their tacos I got. Disgusting

Worst tacos around, they use to be good but have gotten lazy, sloppy and just plain nasty. I'm most disappointed in service I paid for. Make sure you look and see what you get cause all I got was tacos loaded with onions, tomatoes, lettuce along with a tablespoon of meat drenched in hot salsa.

This is not the best place for tacos, basic tacos with no seasoning, not authentic Mexican food.

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.

Came rushing through the doors (our own fault) with about 30 minutes to spare before seeing Nate…read moreBargatze's show. There was a line about 10 people deep and the place was packed. 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!

It may be the worst customer service I have ever experienced in my entire life. As far as I am…read moreconcerned, this lady is the most rude and unperfectionist person I have ever encountered. I was insulted for questioning her pricing for two pieces of bread at a price of $7+. The words that were used against me were every bad and race-related word you could imagine. I worked for customer service for more than a decade, and someone like that should not be allowed to work in the public sector. I will definitely contact the state food board regarding the sanitation of this establishment. I saw bread pick up from the floor and put back on the rack and the lady wasn't even wearing gloves or a hair net. Please do better

This is both a grocery store and a restaurant I believe. It's located within the 5 Points strip…read moremall near the Charles St. end. I've been here twice this week, and I'd be hard pressed to find better Mexican food in the Rockford area. I've had the taco dinner with carne asada and al pastor tacos that were huge and delicious. Yesterday I had the rib eye burrito which was about as good as a burrito gets, and today I heated up some shrimp empanadas that were very fresh tasting and delicious. There's quite a few other things on their menu that I haven't seen in most other local Mexican restaurants, so go in and give it a try. You won't regret it. One suggestion though. There isn't much in the way of ambiance here. It's almost like a big cafeteria. You can eat there, but I prefer to get carryout. The prices are cheap. The quality of the food I've had is great. I am all about supporting local businesses, and between this place, La Michoacana (they make ice cream from scratch in front of you, and tremendously inexpensive), and Vinny's Pizza, there's a lot of great stuff to be explored in this quaint little strip mall.
