Popped in here for a quick lunch during a conference at the Marriott Marquis around the corner. I went for the chimichanga lunch option with a cactus salad in the side. The food was delicious, the portions hearty and the free tortilla chips & salsa were a nice surprise. The meal was very good value for money and I'd definitely eat here again if I lived closer.
Our first time in Chicago...Cannot say enough. Hands down the best we have had. Food and drinks were amazing. And service was spot on. A well oiled machine. Highly recommended!

Love the extensive vegan menu here! There isn't just one protein option, but several. And the food was delicious. I got the vegan beef quesadillas. I would have loved to check it out at a time that I could have tried their margaritas.

This was a good place to eat. There was vegan options. I got the grilled vegetables enchiladas. The service was good. Some employees were better at customer service then others. They give you alot of food so be prepared to take some home.

First time going and I loved it! Food was so authentic and flavorful and staff was quick. We ordered chimichanga and enchiladas and tamales and margaritas. The music was good and the plates were plenty full! It was a little tight because it's not a big place, but the food is very satisfying, so once I was eating that did not bother me. The pico was Really Good!!! Prices were decent! I would definitely recommend it to others!

I absolutely LOVE this place! I just recently went there for the 1st time and I’ve been there a total of 4x already!! The food is fast and delicious while the drinks are strong and tasty. Make sure when you dine in ask for Linda!!! She is nothing but amazing!!! Her service is Impeccable and she treats all her customers like family!!! She’s definitely one of the main reasons why I keep coming back! She’s the BEST!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I wanted some really good, traditional Mexican food and was surprised to find this place close to where Iw as staying (I was at the Hampton Inn McCormick Center). I was also surprised they had an extensive vegan menu, not jsut a few items
I ordered takeout: vegan enchiladas (seitan ground beef w/ both roja and verde sauces), a beef taco on corn tortilla, a chorizo & egg taco on flour tortilla, chips & salsa, and sopapillas for dessert.
Pickup went smoothly and food was just about ready when I got there. All the food was packaged great for carry out and was piping hot after my 10-15 min walk back (and ice creeam was in cold container).
Everything tasted great, especially the vegan enchiladas! The price was right and I will seek La Cantina out again if I stay in the area. No complaints or issues. A+

Ordered take out. It was prepared super fast, packaged nicely and came with extra salsas! The vegan burrito was massive and delicious. Even the "mini" quesadilla was literally 2 full size quesadillas. The guacamole and Pico were great too. Love that they have a full vegan menu!

Intimate spot with friendly service and extremely swift service. I appreciated that they had the game on mute with traditional music on as well. Food was hot and delicious. We ordered a sangria pitcher and that was it!!! Definitely recommend.
