Got some lunch here that was pretty solid. The food itself was delicious. I got the burrito which was very filling. One of my friends got the shrimp tacos which actually had huge portions on them and looked really good. The atmosphere was fun. Very clean and and good amount of tables. Only downside was the price. Just a little too expensive for what it was in my mind. Not too bad though.

Our waiter was great! Cute restaurant. The menu was very small but the food and drinks were good. The waiter said everything is made in house. Wish the burrito came with beans or something on the side rather than just the burrito. Chips and salsa are not included but you get a good variety with the option for purchase. Went around 6:00pm on a Saturday and was seated immediately.

Great place for a modern Mexican meal. We had a combination of dishes from Pollo Monterrey and Flautas to firecracker shrimp and Chicharrones. As we enjoyed our drinks the chef came out with a complimentary hors d’oeuvre that he was looking for our input on…It was great!!! Service and atmosphere are excellent.

Love this Cantina that is just a short walk from Hotel Covington! Our visit was excellent and the service was great. The team working gave some great recommendations for cocktails and margs and they were quick to check on each of their tables to ensure every customer felt welcomed. Highly recommend coming here if you’re a small group - quick seating, quick service, and great food and drink! The ceviche was excellent!
