Cactus Grill & Cantina Reviews
Just got back from a terrible experience at the Cantina. As a patron for the past 20+ years, tonight was the first truly bad experience we’ve had. It was freezing cold! So cold in fact that every customer had multiple layers on and our children ate dinner in their winter jackets. When employees were asked to turn the heat up, the answer was “the owners don’t want to spend the money” and “there’s nothing we can do, our hands are tied.” Most of the employees were wearing...read full review

Cactus Grill & Cantina offers generous portions at a slightly higher price point. The quality of food varies; while some dishes are delicious, others can be disappointing. Recent diners have noted that the nachos are HUGE, easily shareable among four people, and packed with toppings, which adds a smoky flavor. The servers are attentive and polite, providing good service and quick beer refills. However, some guests reported issues like greasy tacos and quesadillas, with the chicken in the quesadilla sometimes overcooked. The ambiance features fun colors and Mexican decor, with a cool outdoor dining area by the river. The dine-in area can feel pretty dark at night, and there have been complaints about sticky floors and flies in the main serving room. While the wait times can be long, the patio remains a great spot to enjoy a mezcal margarita in nice weather. Overall, while the food can be hit or miss, the ample portions make it a decent value for the money.
