Restaurant Bar La Cañada Reviews
Best Mexican food. A MUST try 😋
I was invited to have lunch here by a wonderful family. The carnitas were absolutely delicious as was everything else. We also had the homemade tortillas, fresh beans, salsas and the cactus salad. You really must try their zucchini flower quesadillas (I've never had anything like this before) and I loved it! Everything was so good, I highly recommend trying this hidden gem out and I will definitely be returning. It is cash only.
Carnitas are bomb!! Cash only!
Expect long lines on weekend but definitely worth the wait

Restaurant Bar La Cañada offers excellent carnitas by the pound, with or without tortillas and salsa. Customers praise the friendly meat server but note the serious atmosphere and long lines. The menu includes delicious Queritos and Menudo, making it a highly recommended spot despite needing a makeover. Many visitors say the carnitas are some of the best they have ever had, especially if they arrive early, as wait times can reach 20-25 minutes. The quality of the food often surpasses expectations, and it is considered better than some other well-known places like Quiroga. However, service at the cash register can sometimes be unfriendly, with one cashier appearing more interested in listening to her headphones than attending to customers. The restaurant's interior is described as old, neglected, and not very attractive, which is why many prefer takeout. Despite this, the lively atmosphere with live music can make the experience more enjoyable. Overall, the food alone makes it a popular choice for carnitas lovers, and the place does not disappoint in flavor.
