    The Grandioso has just arrived. Yum.
    Elle W.

    I had a lunch date with my son, and after many suggestions from a facebook post, I went with Red River Cantina. One post suggested the Grandioso, which included 3 cheese and 3 chicken enchiladas with combination chicken & beef fajitas. My son and I sat at the bar, and the service was great. Our eyes kind of bugged out when the order arrived. It was a lot of food. . . And all of it delicious.

    On Wednesday after 4pm, they are having a fajita special which is 1lb of beef and chicken fajitas for $32.95! Comes with a small queso, guacamole and pico de gallo. Also served with two sides of charo beans, Mexican rice and their homemade tortillas! Food was fantastic! I did try their house margarita which was delicious! We sat at the bar, had great service. The only downside is when you order, your food will be in front of you within 5-8 minutes, seriously, so only order when you are ready to eat. It like they rush and we don't like that. Lots of tvs in the bar area, plenty of tables for those big parties or a party of two!

    Best Tex Mex we've had out here yet! So close to home and the ambiance is great, it's lively and always playing music and sports. Family friendly and great for a date night. We usually order the fajitas and their margs have different variety of flavors. The customer service is on point here! Highly recommend. Shout out to BB Jordan she was our server and she recommended a few great things in the menu that we tried!

    We absolutely love Red River Cantina! The food is always fresh and delicious. The weekend happy hour is great. I love getting a medium tortilla soup ( which is pretty big ) and an order of the HH flautas with queso for dipping. The service is fantastic and VERY fast! We always have a drink before we order because the food is out in a snap! Margaritas are very tasty. The red salsa is warm (I love that) Make sure to ask for green sauce! Highly recommend. Their BBQ location is also wonderful.

    Went with a group of 7 other ladies for lunch on a Saturday. We had a great time. Food and drinks were awesome. I had the fajitas and the cucumber jalapeno margarita. Fajitas were delicious and the margarita was just right. Not too spicy. The only thing... Wish they had a patio.

    Is there changing tables at your restaurant? I was there and did not see any changing tables provided in the women's restroom.

    They don't even have waiters at their restaurant, I doubt they have changing tables.

Not sure if there's new management or what has changed. Today was the final straw. My wife and I came in for lunch on Memorial Day shortly after they opened. The restaurant wasn't busy and there were plenty of servers working. We were brought chips and then completely forgotten about. We sat there for 15-20 minutes waiting for someone to come back and even take our drink order. Nothing. What made it worse was watching multiple servers walk right past us without ever making eye contact or checking on us. We finally got up, moved to the bar, and ordered our food there instead. We did let the hostess know about our experience, but no manager or staff member ever came over to apologize or even acknowledge the situation. Really disappointing considering how long we've supported this place.

    The best enchiladas!…read more If you're in the area (or even if you're not), and you're a fan of enchiladas (or even if you're not), you should give Barcenas a try. I had the basic Enchiladas Cheese, which were fantastic. The rice and beans were perfectly cooked and flavorful, which many comparable restaurants seem to struggle with. Chips and salsa were pretty standard, but still good. The place feels authentically Mexican, which is a nice change-up from all of the Tex-Mex places that are so common. The music and decor is all on point! Service was above and beyond as well. Even for a Sunday at lunch time, the waiters were constantly checking on us to make sure our drinks were topped off and to make sure we didn't need anything. I'll definitely be returning next time I'm in that part of town to try another of their enchiladas!

My mom enjoyed her dish which was another enchilada dish and my sister ordered a yummy chicken veggie soup. We would definitely visit again!

    I don't know what it is about this place. I really want to like it, but it always misses the mark…read more I've had two good experiences out of five times I've been there. The food is pretty good, as is the green sauce, and now that they added a spicy red sauce the food is even better. The building itself is nice but different tables have different vibes. The manager does go around checking on people but the issues aren't something that make sense to bring up at the time because it's always something different that is lacking. This last visit on Saturday the 11th of April. The hostess, a young short blonde girl (I won't mention the name), was rude. No eye contact, barely acknowledging we are standing right in front of her, definitely no greeting, and no direct communication. Just whispers to the person showing us to our table with a blank expression on her face. This was almost enough for me to decide it was going to be a bad experience. Definitely a bad initial impression. I said hi to her, told her thank you, and everything trying to extend courtesy then I remembered SHE is the hostess not me. Ridiculous. Our waitress that day McKenzie was pretty good, but I felt bad for her. Our table was as far as you can get from the kitchen or wherever the wait staff goes to get water, chips, food etc. and she was having a hard time serving, especially cause she would bring out one thing at a time. For example, she would see we had an empty cup, so she would just leave and come back and drop off a cup without communicating, well if she asked we would have told her, we need chips, water, salsa, napkins. Instead she made a trip for each of these, one at a time. Really weird wait style and very inefficient. She was still good though, because even thought at times she wouldn't communicate at all, she was still observing what we needing and dealing with it. Must be a weird gen z lack of interpersonal skills. I really want to like this place, they're on the cusp of being great, but need to work on consistency.

    9/10 would definitely go back !…read more I ordered the chicken and steak fajitas, and both were really good. Personally, I enjoyed the chicken more. It had amazing flavor and was perfectly cooked. The steak was good too, but it had more of a barbecue taste, which just isn't my personal preference I also heard the table next to me. Tell the waiter that they preferred the chicken over the filet mignon, which just goes to show that their chicken is superior. Next time, I'd probably stick with just the chicken fajitas. Let's talk about the sauces because they deserve their own moment. The green sauce that came with the chips was AMAZING. So fresh and flavorful. The red sauce was also really good -- both paired perfectly with the chips. For rice, I tried both the cilantro rice and the Mexican rice. They were both solid, but I liked the Mexican rice just a little more. One thing to keep in mind: toppings for fajitas are an extra charge. I got the garlic, onion, and Serrano topping with cheese -- and they do not play when they say it's spicy! It was delicious but very spicy. Also, it's a $5.99 upcharge, which is easy to miss. And heads up: they mix the Serranos into the cheese, so you can't really remove them once it's served. If you're sensitive to heat, I'd recommend asking for the Serrano peppers on the side. The service was extraordinary -- super attentive and welcoming. The place was packed, but there was still plenty of parking, which was a plus. I didn't order drinks this time, but they looked really good. I'll definitely be back, especially for Margarita Monday -- $5 margaritas all day sounds like a deal I can't pass up. Overall, amazing food, great service, and a fun vibe. I'll absolutely be coming back!
