I've been going to this restaurant for awhile and its always great. My family and I went recently for my dad's birthday. We had a great time and I didn't even tell the waitress it was my dad's birthday but I guess she over heard and brought a little something for my dad. The owners special and one of their large Margaritas are a must!
Wandering through Streetsville we happened upon Cantina Mexicana. We had been feeling like some Mexican food for awhile so decided to give this place a try.
The inside is fairly small. We were here on a Sunday afternoon so it was not busy. There were only 2 other tables with diners. We were seated right away.
I don't eat a lot of Mexican food, so I asked the waitress what she would recommend. She was very friendly and made several recommendations including the enchiladas, which my wife and I both decided to ordered along with an appetiser of guacamole.
The food was all very fresh and tasty. Our waitress was friendly and the service was timely. I liked this place well enough, and would definitely consider coming again. The one drawback that might prevent my return is I get very turned off when pop is not free to get refills and this is indeed the case here. A glass of pop was $2 and there were no free refills.
If the woman owner was not there, then this restaurant could potentially be great.
You could get very lucky like some others here and have a good time.
However the chances are not good.
Especially if you are a visible minority, then don't bother to go there. Be prepared to wait a VERY long time for service unless you're lucky, and don't dare call for service.
Under no circumstances should you get the attention of the Lady of the House, or you will make a bad situation much worse.
The food is good, although the portions are small for the price.
My friends and I felt compelled to register to write this review.
We went on a Sat. around 2-3 so we were the only customers. It was great, we had the whole place to ourselves.
The restaurant's interior was well decorated to suit the Mexican theme.
The drinks were 3 Cola's and a interesting Mexican pop called Sangria which tasted like a Cuba Librai (rum and coke).
We all split the meal 4 ways and it was the perfect amount with desserts.
First we ordered the guacamole tortilla dip with salsa as an appetizer. It was excellent.
For the main course we shared the Zapata Fiesta which consisted of a superb selection if Mexican foods. There wasn't anything non of use didn't like.
For dessert we split 2 sides (6) of Choros Barrches. They taste like beaver tales. Which are 4inch, log shaped, deep fried batter covered with cinnamon and sugar. You felt like you could eat another serving to your face.
The last thing was the deep fried ice-cream... it was like a deep-fried tennis-ball size mccain coconut cream pie. It was the cherry topping off the whole meal.
The waiter who we assume to be to owner as well was kind and direct with our order. This was nice for a change
and exactly what we wanted.
We paid around $92 not including our generous tip. Which we felt worthy for the perfect amount of Delicious food and nice atmosphere even on a rainy day.
We can't wait to eat at the Cantana Mexicana again. We Recommend it and encourage any Mexican food lover to try it out. It is well worth the half hour drive.
Have only been there twice. The first time we really enjoyed it and the second time was on December 29th with a couple friends that were visiting from out of town.
One of our friends lived in Colombia for 2 years and the other in Guadalajara. Both of these guys loved the food here. They had a lot of conversation in Spanish with the owner and I picked up on some of the rudeness/attitude that others have mentioned from her.
Outside of that, the food was great the first time and just as good the next. If you can tolerate the nuances of eating at a privately owned restaurant then this is a great Mexican place to eat!
