Urban Cantina Reviews
Service is on-off. They seat you, bring you some water then leave you for 15 mins…then come back, bring you your drink…but don’t take order.
Then come back 15 mins later to take food order…
Needs some actual training
The staff are friendly and professional, the atmosphere was very hip and enjoyable, happy hour was great prices. unfortunately using the bathroom after eating dinner, the horror of the bathroom made me question the sanitary values of the restaurant. unflushed toilets, urine saturated floors, trash in every corner. Hope everyone that works there washes their hands in a more sanitary location. Will we be back? Yes. but I hope never to see a restaurant bathroom like that again.
Go straight for the chips and guacamole. I highly recommend the fajitas most definitely some of the tastiest steak I've had in a while! And don't forget to get a cantina bowl any day of the week!

Urban Cantina is a downtown restaurant that offers a mix of Mexican dishes. While some customers have been disappointed with the tacos and enchiladas, which they found to be overpriced and lacking flavor, others have praised the excellent food selection and the quality of ingredients. Notably, the steak nachos, steak tacos, and ceviche receive high marks for their freshness. The atmosphere can be lively and a bit loud, which is expected in a busy place, and it attracts a younger crowd with its music and sports on television. The service can be great, especially when asking for attentive staff like Daniel, who provides fantastic customer service. Prices are considered affordable, although some customers have expressed disappointment with the lack of itemized bills. Many visitors find Urban Cantina to be a great place for good food and a fun atmosphere, especially on Taco Tuesdays when the Carne Asada and Shrimp tacos are highly recommended. The restaurant is also known for its tasty margaritas, including the Strawberry Margarita and Jalapeño margarita. The inside can be dark and more of a bar atmosphere, with sticky surfaces that may not appeal to everyone. Customers have enjoyed the fish tacos and plantains, and some have praised the food as delicious. The strawberry margarita is often described as fabulous, though some feel it’s small for the price. The restaurant is popular for hosting large parties, with excellent service and friendly staff, making it a place many enjoy returning to. Overall, Urban Cantina continues to be a spot that offers good food, lively energy, and a place for celebrations.
