Cantina 33 is a hidden gem serving up flavorful Latin eats. I came for happy hour Mon- Thurs 4pm-7pm. Fri 4pm-6pmThe vibes are colorful and cozy, and the drinks? Only $8-$9. I had the Sangrita and Pisco Punch. I got the Cantina Platter, 3 tacos, wings, and chorizo wontons for just $20! I definitely had leftovers. Everything was so good, especially those chipotle wings and the sweet & savory wontons topped with caramelized onions and honey. The carnitas tacos were perfectly satisfying. 10/27/25 Camila the bartender was very knowledgeable of the food and drink menu. She was always smiling and very friendly throughout my whole experience. Definitely coming back for a solo happy hour or with friends.
Music was Latin mix and Afrobeats they have four TVs perfect for entertainment.

Two weeks ago, on a Wednesday, I went with my wife to have dinner at your restaurant. I ordered the tacu tacu , which I had enjoyed on previous visits. As I always do, I made it very clear to the waitress that I cannot have anything spicy. Even a small amount of pepper can severely irritate my intestines and potentially put my life at risk.
When the food arrived, I began eating the skirt steak, which tasted fine. However, after just one spoonful of rice, I noticed tingling on my lips. Immediately, I felt something was wrong. I asked my wife to try the rice, but she didn’t detect any spiciness, so I initially thought it might be in my head. I continued eating the rice and onions until I began feeling burning pain in my stomach, with the tingling spreading to my throat and lips.
Concerned, I asked the waitress if there was anything spicy in the rice. She assured me there wasn’t. But as my symptoms worsened, I became nauseous and had to rush to the bathroom to vomit. Shortly after, the waitress came back and admitted she had investigated further. She discovered that the onions on my plate had been marinated with jalapeños, and those onions had been placed on my rice. This was the direct cause of my reaction.
I became ill again and had to run to the bathroom once more. When I received the check, I noticed I had still been charged for the meal. The plate was only comped after I specifically requested it — despite the fact that I had clearly communicated my dietary restriction and had become seriously sick because of the kitchen’s negligence.
I found the waitress to be kind but inexperienced in handling a situation this severe. What upset me most was that the cook, whose mistake could have endangered my life, never came out to apologize or take responsibility. I received only an apology from the waitress, which I appreciated but felt was inadequate under the circumstances.
Now, two weeks later, I have only just finished my antibiotics and am starting to recover. Sadly, I can no longer trust your establishment. I will not be returning, as I cannot risk my health or my life in a place where such a mistake could happen silently.

We went for Brunch on a Sunday. The food was good. The music was too loud. As a dj you have to read the room. You had to yell to speak. The vibes were people eating, listening to music and chatting. The loud music didn’t go.

This restaurant is listed on Public Square. In addition, their food is expensive and not very filling.

A Peruvian place that lists itself on Public Square as a safe haven for conservatives??? 🤢🤮 Get your food from somewhere that won’t deport its’ creators. Tacos taste like boots.
Honestly, I got the coupon from PUSLD for the AYCE tacos and bottomless drinks. The website advertised multiple tacos and a variety of drinks. We got a choice of 3 tacos, shrimp, chicken and carne asada. For the drinks only margaritas or sangria. The tacos took 30 mins to come out and they were kind of flavorless. Just keep a look out.

Excellent service, delicious food and cozy environment. Was at bit cold at first but temperature was adjusted eventually. The shrimp tacos were my favorite. The carnitas/chicken tacos could use some more flavor/condiments but enjoyed my experience and had a lovely time. The staff is attentive, kind and quick to bring food/drinks! 100% recommended 👌🏼
