SO. The food is phenomenal. Hands down. Eat it, you won't regret it. Good prices, tremendous flavor, lovely texture.
But the vibes are so wildly juxtaposed. Immensely delicious food while EDM is blaring provides for a somewhat uncomfortable dining experience, although the flavor-bombs of food were STILL transcendent. My wife said the flavors reminded her of her home in Juarez, which is a milestone accomplishment for a restaurant this side of the border.
If you stay downstairs, it's heaven on a plate. After you've had a couple and feel like relaxing, come up to Cantina 31. It's worth it.
Oh, and the drinks are stiff as all git-out, so get down there and have a couple

Really fun Bar to attend on Thurs Nights. They have a DJ and the place lights up for sure. The bar tenders are great and the crowd is fun. Also the view is nice of the surrounding city.

When making reservations, be informed that if you decide to eat inside it is in the upstairs bar area. The music is loud and more for the younger patrons. That aside, the food was great!! Completely made up for the loud atmosphere. Next time it will be on the patio or wait downstairs for a table.

Made a reservation, when we arrived hostess said it was for the club upstairs - no mention of that when we made the reservation. Then she said 5 minutes to get us a table in the dining room. After 15 minutes we checked and they said another 30 minutes.

The reservation was not what we had planned. We thought we were going to get to eat in the dining room but they insisted we be in the nightclub area due to the fact that we used Open Table to make our reservation. We had 2 minors with us needed to be out by 8:00 and our reservation was at 7:00. But they ended up letting us stay because 3 of us were spending money having cocktails.

Got there. Placed was closed due to water leaked pipes.. whatever.. should not let you be able to make reservations. Great way to start a Saturday night.

This location has been closed since August. I'm sure their food is amazing, but I'm not sure why they allowed for this reservation to be booked. We even received a confirmation email, only to find that this restaurant is closed. We had to find last minute birthday accommodations.

Worst experience ever here super disappointed. No toilet paper in bathroom at opening. No bartender available and one overworked gracious waitress who did her best to take care of the whole floor. We were limited to ordering beer or margaritas due to no bartender. Got our food and had to wait forever to get plates to serve ourselves from the taco platter. We ordered guacamole as an appetizer it was perfection, yet the guac served with our tacos was from a seperate old not fresh made batch.

Popped in for a late lunch after being drawn in from the great aromas. Seated quickly and served promptly with enthusiasm and a smile by Sara. Guacamole Tour app was fun and fresh - standard guac with 3 topping options. We had marlin fish tacos, enchiladas divorciadas, seafood enchilada , a chorizo tostada (all plated beautifully with generous portions), and amazing margaritas. One pineapple flavor and one cucumber flavor both ringed with tajin. Delicious!!

First of all I like to say that we frequent this restaurant often and the food is always very tasty however this visit we encountered a very rude and with an attitude server. It took around 15 minutes for her to finally approach our table to request drinks. We requested nonalcoholic beers with some waters and a regular beer. Once again we waited 10 to 15 minutes. When she did finally bring the beers we noticed that the two beers that we had ordered non-alcoholic were indeed alcoholic 5% we pointed out to her that they were alcoholic and she stated “well I give this beer to all my customers” . We then asked her to remove them from our table and bring us two ice teas once again we waited another 10 minutes when she did bring them we were asking for some sugar and she walked away. My friend left our table to request sugar from the bar and the bartender said she had no sugar. When our server was passing by our table we flagged her down and we requested sugar for the iced teas she finally brought the sugar but again we had to wait. We asked to speak to a manager and requested a different server. We did not get a different server however we were served our food immediately . Our servers name was Laura # 32 I know this because it’s on our receipt. I suggest that she brush up on her customer service and learn how to read or know her menu, because many people do not drink alcohol and it is a great injustice to be deceived. I Want to end up in a positive review. Food is always great I will be returning, but I’ll make sure that I do not have the same server.
Everyone was so kind. Reserving ahead of time allowed us to enter the facility right away without having to wait. The food was spectacular. So elegantly detailed. I will be back.

Table was way to small for dishes. This was kind of a small plate menu but no help was given for that Mentioned it was a birthday party and there was no recognition when others got some Disappointing. Cocktails were outstanding.

We had been there before for drinks! We checked out the menu and we're excited about what was offered!! I was a bit disappointed in the food, but the drinks, service and attention was fantastic!! I hope you rethink the total nightclub vibe and concentrate on upscale food!!
Booking for a big party of 8, they accommodated us by sitting us in the vip room! We had the room to ourselves which was great! With it being St Patrick's day the music was extremely loud at the bar. Our waitress did a great job with everything and recommend some great tequila. Food was very good and once we were done eating our waitress found us a table by the dancefloor. The rest of the night went well. Overall had a good experience

Massive margaritas match the massive price tag. Happy to recommend the margarita diablo (mango and chimoy) and the aguachiles verdes (kind of a ceviche) to a 4sq friend.
