One of the best – I love Cantina. This is usually our go to for birthdays, celebrations, etc. Love the table made guacamole and the food is awesome. Not to mention the drinks... But it's an awesome atomosphere and always a fun crowd. Definitely one of Charlotte's best.

Not the best Mexican food I've had but for Charlotte this is so far the best in town. If you have a large group I recommend calling ahead to book a table. The staff could be better!

The food is good but it's a little pricey for what you get. Also, the wait staff could use more direction on how to wait on customers.

what a fake – food is ok -- typical americanized tex mex. Way overpriced. We got the fandito and it was terrible. Pasturzed cheese overf pinaple. It's not good and not close to being mexican. Save your $ and don't go here.

really really good – their food is authentic. they do a good job with the flavors and mixing experiences. the best thing about our experience was that we did not have an upset stomach after the meal, to me that means that their food is really fresh.

Don't see what all the fuss is about – My boyfriend and I had dinner here a few days ago. I love Mexican food, and Cantina just did not do it for either one of us. We were excited about the gaucamole alive, but were let down after the 1st chip. It took forever for the person to come out and then the person was all sweaty and it just wasn't appealing. I had the shrimp tacos which were ok, kind of flavor less, just like the salsa, and my boyfriend had some enchiladas that, well, for lack of a better phrase kept him up all nigh... read more

Great food; Awful service Been to Cantina 1511 too many times to count, but the last couple of times the service has been awful. Very disappointing.

Great food Ok service – I have eaten at Cantina a few times and have always enjoyed the food it a great choice when looking for god Mexican food at a middle of the road price. I highly recommend their freshly made guacamole just be careful not to fill up on it before your main meal arrives. While the food is great the service is sometimes slow, I have had excellent service but also some very poor service. Either way the food out weighs the sometimes spotty service.

Excellent Guacamole! The Mexican food is great. It's not tex-mex so don't think it's going to compare to some of the fast food food burritos places around town. This is much better. This restaurant is also a bit upscale so you may prefer to leave the kids at home. People are usually dressed nice and out of for a nice dinner. A great selection of authentic Mexican dishes.PROS: Taste of the food and bar area (Get a margaritte pitcher)CONS: A little expensive and greasy (authentic mexican is a little greasy)
