Reviews for Cactus Cantina

Ratings_icons Allways good food...every time!

I have been going here for 5 years. Yes, it will be crowded at times...but hey the place is great so that is to be expected. We have tried many dishes on the menu with great success. Service is usually good but I have taken a larger group there before and service suffered. We will keep coming back.

Ratings_icons Best Mexican Food EVER

We used to eat here once a week at least, before moving out of the area. The restaurant is often crowded with sometimes a wait of over an hour but there is a reason for that - the food is amazing. This is true for everything on the menu. They make the flour tortillas fresh, right in front of you. The chips are even warm. The margueritas are also very good. The service and prices are very good. Parking is something of a challenge but make the effort. It is soooo worth it.

Cactus Cantina is a very good restaurant. The queso is delicious as are the entrees. The margaritas are also very good and the atmosphere is fun. This is a great place to go for a happy hour and stay for dinner!

Ratings_icons Great Food, quite pricey

Ross D. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 4,164

Cactus Cantina offers some very good food. The decor of the restaurant is your traditional Tex-Mex, and the smell when you enter is strong and gorgeous. The food is very good, they make especially good fajitas, though to some the flour tortillas can be a bit thick. The staff are generally pretty nice but can be a bit impolite and also Cactus is a bit pricey when compared to similar restaurants in the area. The food is great though, and worth for an occasional meal.

PROS: Great Food, smells
CONS: sometimes rude staff, a bit pricey
