When I say they nailed it with service, food, and amazing drinks... I mean it! We will most definitely be back and are excited to bring our out of town friends/family too when they visit. Such a unique place. 10/10 recommend! Try them out!

Service and drinks were great but the food:Chicken tacos were dry pork tacos were dry, the elote.... The corn was obviously from a can.. I mean come on... The queso was kind of bland. The roasted house salsa is pretty amazing Guacamole was great and the quesadilla was great. Presentation was beautiful just needs a little quality bump.

I would say- come here for the vibes, drinks, and chips. If they didn't have food and it was purely a bar honestly I'd give it a 5/5. But I would give it a 3.75/5 if that was a thing since they are labeled as a restaurant I have to be honest and say I was not a fan of the food. The portions are affordable for sure, but super small. You would need 2-3 tacos to get full. Also, the menu is super limited so if you don't like the flavors of what you order you're kind of stuck. The chips like I said amazing out of this world- but the salsa as not my fave- and I ordered elote which I didn't finish because I didn't like it. On the up side, the interior is so gosh darn beautiful. I mean cmon- the lighting, furniture, tile work- to the T was perfect. I have a feeling it used to be a hair salon previously or they got some inspiration from that because it's super unique- like a boutique salon setup- open, and semi walled. You'll see when you walk in. Also, my drink was so delicious- especially with added simple syrup. It was floral and sweet just how I like it and beautifully garnished as well. Our waiter was super sweet, prompt and never forgot anything. You could tell he took his job seriously. So even though I wouldn't come back for the food per se due to the food experience I'd come back for drinks and to hang with girlfriends if they really wanted to come.

This place is spectacular!! Me and my fiancé both work in the restaurant industry and we were absolutely shook by our server/bartender, Brian, and the food & drinks. Amazing, thoughtful, thorough service. Best margarita I’ve had in a long time, and I can’t recommend their French 75 highly enough - a perfect pairing with anything on the spicier side. Their sampler is a must for your first time. The ambiance is comfortable, cozy, and on trend. Perfect for a casual date night, a sexy party, or a girls or boys night. Every occasion would be wonderfully celebrated in this amazing space. Thank you Wild Cactus Cantina.

What a great place just to hang out and have a cold drink. They have open garage like doors and we got our food quick! we ordered crawfish and a poboy sandwich! Yum!!! the craw fish was of big size and tasty! I would recommend that the seating is not so close to each other but other than that, it was great!

This place seemed very interesting so we decided to give it a try. The decor is pretty and different. The 10 minute wait at the hostess stand before the hostess even acknowledged us was indicative of our experience. She apologized stating that she was clearing a table. We were then seated at the newly cleared table. And waited several more minutes before our server casually walked over to give us 2 glasses and a decanter of water. I asked for a glass of Cabernet and my husband ice tea. And while we had his attention, we placed our food order (we had plenty of time to look over the menu while waiting to be seated as well as the wait at the table). We ordered the taco flight to share. About 7 minutes later our flight arrived without plates or our drinks. I finally got the attention of the hostess, who was clearing the table next to us, and asked if we could get plates and our drinks. She told our server and about 5 minutes later our server casually walked over and handed us our plates and drinks. Mind you we had already eaten a taco while taking turns eating over the serving dish. The food was actually quite good. However the experience left us hungry. We paid for our food and left without any intention of returning.

Nice and relaxing. However, the portion of food is small and still over $11 with not much variety. Their drinks menu is huge. That’s pretty good. The service was slow. I had to flag them down. The salsa was too spicy and there’s no other choice to eat your chips with.

The food was great. Try the Sampler if it’s your first time. The vegan protein was good and my gf said the chicken was as well.

Had high hopes because the place is so stinking cute! But we were very disappointed. We went on a Friday night. The place was not busy at all but I had to go up to the bar three times to ask to be seated. The hostess essentially ignored us while setting up for a larger party and then sat the party that came in behind us without saying I’ll be right back or anything. Eventually had a bartender seat us. Unfortunately service did not improve. Everything was so slow, we were there for nearly two hours and we again had to get up and ask for water, silverware, napkins, as well as our check. Margaritas were good but the food was adequate at best. The menu is not the same as they have posted online. Your options are tacos. That’s it. Queso tasted like it came out of a jar. Very disappointing for a 40+ dollar meal (with drinks). Do not recommend and will not return.

Went here for first time last night. Not too busy and seated right away. Chips and salsa was very good! Great server. Had Birra tacos and Elote both of which were outstanding. I like that you pay by the taco based on how hungry you are. Definitely recommend.

My wife & I used to love this place. The menu changed awhile back, but it still had most of our favorites. However, during the past year they have frequently been out of items we would normally get. Then sometime n the past 6 months the drink menu was cut n 1/2 & prices went up a considerable amount (supposedly due to their accountant saying the prices were too low). We used to come several times a month. Now we only come maybe once every 2 months. Too many other options at better prices n the area. I hope things will change.
