Cantina en la Ocho Reviews
This is my husband and I once a week spot I LOVE THIS PLACE diverse and friendly
It's a bar. I thought it was a restaurant. But I tried there long Island slushy and some tacos real quick. My drink was great! I was expecting the slushy to be sweet but it wasn't. There pretty strong too. Tacos were just meh! Not much flavor and they were out of soft corn tortillas. Simpy on the meat too. Maybe I came on the wrong day lol I was light weight disappointed in the food. Don't think I would come here again.
The bar tender was awesome. The food was good and the atmosphere was loud but it was karaoke night. Lots of singing along. Local hang out. Good for a local bar.

Cantina en la Ocho is a casual bar that offers a mix of food, drinks, and entertainment. The atmosphere is generally cool and clean, making it a comfortable spot for many visitors. The bar features a pool table, bar seating, and tables around the space, creating a relaxed environment. While some customers initially thought it was a restaurant, they found the setting more like a honky tonk country spot with a Mexican theme.
The menu includes items like tacos, bacon cheese fries, and Carolina Gold wings, with some reviews highlighting the birria tacos as a standout—many consider them the best they've had, and some even order them repeatedly. However, the food experiences vary; some found the tacos to be just okay, citing lack of flavor or higher standards, while others enjoyed the quality and flavor, especially the birria tacos. Drinks such as margaritas and Long Island slushies are available, with the slushy being strong and not overly sweet. The service receives mixed reviews—friendly and attentive at times, but some find the options for margaritas limited.
Overall, Cantina en la Ocho is appreciated for its good food, friendly staff, and enjoyable atmosphere, especially for those looking for a casual spot with good specials and a lively vibe.
