Excellent Guac! I've been to this restaurant too many times to count. Absolutely love it. Great food and margaritas every time. The guacamole they make at your table is excellent. It's a large restaurant and can very nicely accommodate large parties. They also have an outside dining area with music which is nice on a warm summer night.

Should be better I should say upfront that I have high expectations of Mexican food, but that often the simplest taqueria meets them. That being said:

Wonderful Mexican food Fresh, flavorful Mexican food in a convenient location. Parking can be tricky on busy weekends though. The patio is charming, and the guacamole is wonderful. A great addition to the Central Charlotte restaurant scene!

Cantina 1511 is delicious! Although a little pricy for Mexican, the meals are excellent. The food is fresh and the combinations of ingredients mesh together nicely. This is not your average Mexican food since each meal has a unique spin. We enjoy eating here and would definitely recommend it.

YUMMY – I couldn't agree more with other customers saying that this is one of the best Mexican restaurants I've tried. I'm the typical picky eater, but have been pleased with EVERY dish I've had. I've only visited the East Blvd location, but each time all of the staff were friendly & had no problems with the ordering, etc. There is, however a longer wait that I would like on Thurs - Sat, but hey, I'm sure the owner loves that problem. They deserve to be this busy. Really great food, great atmosphere! You should try it yourse... read more

This one's a keeper! – Cantina 1511 was such an amazing surprise. If you go in expecting the typical fare you get in most chain Mexican restaurants, swimming in grease and cheese, you will be disappointed. The food was truly authentic Mexican cuisine, the same as I have experienced in Mexico City and other trips to the country. We went to the Ballantyne location but I'm sure the Dilworth location is equally as good. The guacamole was as fresh as you can get it - prepared right in front of you at the table. I had the Tacos al... read more

Great fresh tasting food – Just been to Cantina 1511 after having heard some good things. The area we sat in was nice and cosy. The food tasted great. The service was good and we will definitely be going back. We had the steak quesadilla and the Barbaroa de Percoa (or something like that) - it was mexican barbecue pork with rice and beans, shredded cheese, salad, guacamole and pico de gallo - very yummy. I saved some for later too! 

Business response:

So/so experience at Cantina 1511. – A girlfriend and I ate at Cantina last friday night. The experience was ok. We did not have a reservation and knew that there would be a wait, we come here often and it is always busy, so this was not unusual. We were told by a woman at the front door that our wait would be about an hour. Drinks were recieved at the bar by a very kind and patient blonde bartender, and we moved to have a seat at a high top table. Soon after we sat down a dark haired girl asked if we would like chips and sal... read more
