Reviews of Cantina Laredo (Coffee Shop)

Jowy Sowy

Good food. Great fajitas combination plate. Great dessert. Friendly staff. A bit on the expensive side though.

Laura Wallace

Higher end Mexican restaurant. Fresh, delicious, high-quality ingredients. Guac made table-side. The steak fajitas (and anything else I've gotten) are always really good.

Always when in Little Rock we eat at Cantina Laredo. Best service, food fantastic. The best LR has to offer.

Very good service, very clean and nice dining area, but a somewhat cold atmosphere, reasonably priced. I had the chimichanga. It was extremely heavy, filled with cheap processed chicken, dried up sweet peppers, in a sauce that was way too salty with a wrap that was too greasy. Look somewhere else for a better chimichanga. The quesadillas looked a lot better.

Taylor Bettis

Very fine dining experience

Hi It me

Coool place best food

jim jester

good food and prompt service

shelley lee

Always a good meal here. Good atmosphere for a celebration.

Ted Gipson

First time there and it wad good.

Brenda B

Poor service and food was just ok. Not as good as it was when they first opened

Sue F. Lopez

The service after we received our food was nonexistent. The worst thing was after waiting a very long time, my daughter got her Birthday dessert, the brownie w/icecream. The brownie was so dry and hard you could not cut it except for a small area in the center. I don't know if it was just cooked too long or dried out from age. Since it was free she wasn't going to complain, but it really was shameful. And this dessert for your birthday being a restaurant policy, surely it could be better than that.

We don't come here often, but the food and atmosphere are always great. Our server at our last visit was Ian. He was really nice and took good care of us! The queso here is a step above the traditional cheese dip and had spinach and artichokes in it. That with a bite of their house salsa is great! I had the chicken avocado tacos and they didn't skimp on the avocado! Drinks are great too! More pricey than typical Mexican fare but you get what you pay for and unique dishes!

Bob Morris

Was pretty good. Food was delicious but we found two hairs in the sour cream. They made it right by making a new order but no other apologies. Never even a visit by the manager. In addition the manager was in the process of calling the police when we walked in and we ended up seating ourselves because we saw the rest of our party sitting down. Guess just a rough day in the food service industry.

Rory Eaken

I could eat their queso all day!

Kristina Davis

Great food!

Abigail Jones

I've been here many times for lunch in the past but I recently went for dinner. The ambiance at night was fantastic and they accidentally gave me the wrong order that I ate anyways and it was great. I was just happy to be there in that environment

Sarah Mardanlou

Fun, upscale Tex Mex restaurant. Clean. Staff friendly. Great place to go to unwind after work.

Leslie Purdy-Hoyt

The food is a step above all other Mexican food places.

Larry Gregory

I ordered the fajitas and they were the best I have had. They tasted fresh and delicious.

Boss Chic

Great food & service as usual!

Shelia McCullough

Food was excellent. My problem was the handicap parkers have to park away from the entrance while non handicap person get front door service

lori simmons

Not only was the meal FANTASTIC; the Service was EXCELLENT. I was treated to my B-Day dinner by my family & I would highly recommend Cantons Laredo to anyone who would like a magnificent dinner with great atmosphere, & fabulous authentic Mexican food. I will most definitely return. Lori Simmons

Morgan McGinnis

Ryan Kitchens

bobby lee swagga

The food n tequilla was great

Scott Camberlin

Enjoyed everything except for the one Male waitperson kept staring at us. Manager was very accommodating!!!!

Lelan Stice

The cheese dip and fajitas are very good.

Carla RS

Very cozy atmosphere with nice fire going in the fireplace. Food was great, service was excellent. Pricier than it should have been for Veterans Day.

Tracie Carter

Love Love Love the Ceviche and the drinks are A1

Logan O'Donnell

I like Mexican food, but this isn't the place for it. I don't think the menu is very broad, and the food is a little bland and dry. Not only that, the prices are outrageous. A steak at a normal place would cost the same as the enchiladas here.

Lisa H

$12-16 Brunch add a featured cocktail or non-alcoholic drink for $1. Large portions of delicous, colorful, well-displayed food without too much spice for a Sunday morning!

Joe Sheldon.

Although the food was good, we received poor service during non-peak hours. Lots of time spent with an empty cup, waiting on condiments and waiting on the check.

Wade Fleming

Food came out quickly, was cooked properly, and tasted great. Kaitlyn did a great job, and was very friendly and engaging.

Bill Nagle

Great, as always, especially the free birthday chocolate brownie!

Mallory Abate

Great food and patio that is dog friendly! My dog loves it here !

Some One

Great food! However, our service was really bad.

Leslie Dodge

Cantina Laredo has a nice atmosphere, a nice menu, and high prices. It seems to be an established and well-loved place in the area. It is not necessarily authentic Mexican but that is okay... however the quality and freshness of the food doesn't quite match the prices and atmosphere. The chicken in the chicken fajitas tasted as if it came from a bag of pre-sliced frozen chicken--I could have made it more flavorful if I made it at home. The carnitas, while visually delicious looking, were overcooked and not tender whatsoever. The tomatoes were not fresh. I seriously hesitate going again and paying high prices on food that I could make better at home! Perhaps the restaurant is just in a comfortable place with an established customer base, but the food quality may be suffering a bit.

Mary Jackson

The food was great. Service was good. The temperature of the area we sat in was too warm and stuffy and the lighting over the tables needs to be brighter. Tonya was going to open the blinds. My BFF, still nutty, lol.

Dempsey Butler

BEST Tex-Mex in Central Arkansas. Bustling atmosphere, knowledgable and engaging staff. Can't miss with the Fajitas Tres (the grilled bacon-wrapped shrimp filled with jack cheese and jalapeño are delicious) AND... save room for their Mexican Apple Pie... with brandy butter sauce and cinnamon ice cream. AMAZING.

Byron Riggs

Great Mexican restaurant. Pleasant and attentive staff. Service is extremely fast. High end atmosphere. Cloth table cloths. Great happy hour drinks and food. Amazingly low cost $$ out of five. Food is top of the line. Unbelievable! Well worth the visit...

Richard Grover

The manager catered to our diet joyfully! In Little Rock it is difficult to find places we can enjoy fill meals as we are gluten free with a vegan diet. This place is on my return trip list!

moyez jaffer

Excellent food, service and excellent environment. Located near park plaza mall. Try their many salad creations and gucomoli & chips.

Mark Watson

Drinks were watered down badly!

Raeleen Matlock

Love this place!!

Cerise Johnson

I came here with a large group of co-workers and from my own personal experience, I was not impressed. I was the only non-alcoholic drinker at the table which somehow resulted in me never receiving a refill. I also placed a to-go order because I had to leave earlier than the group and my food came after the people that ordered after me. I ordered the pescado tacos with rice that tasted like lime peels and Mexican street corn that tasted like just plain canned corn. The queso was pretty good though, but the guacamole had no type of seasoning. Nothing popped. My waiter was very pleasant and patient however, which allows for me to give my experience two stars. It was a very busy night which could result in my food seeming forgotten then rushed, yet that should never been an excuse. I feel like this place worried so tough on being upmarket that it lost it's sense of authentic Mexican flavor.

Alexander Jordan

My favorite Mexican place to eat, their food and service is always top notch. If I'm passing by, I will stop here just to get the brownie dessert, which is DELISH. Always love coming here.

Keith Cook

Everything was excellent

Jeff Puckett

Over priced for common tex-mex

Alan Malcolm

Smokey chipotle salsa is a nice change from your standard American-Mexican fare. Entree (pork) was excellent.

Martin Sanady

Great Mexican food, with quality ingredients, and service.

Mary Rankin

Great nachos and good service!

Kerri Cousins

Love this place! Excellent staff, delicious food and drinks!

Steven Wright

Friend took me here for lunch and the food was surprisingly good. Priced higher than other tex mex but its understandable because it is more upscale. Waiters were nice and checked on us often.

gRegina Kendrick

The food was not good

Bryce Wolfe

Live guacamole is out of this world. Their specials are never cookie cutter, always unique. Never had a problem with service, either. I'm so lucky that my company hosts our Christmas party at my favorite restaurant.

Gregory Bryant

Terrific food

Nolan Pennington

This place is one of the best high-end Mexican restaurants I have ever been to

Andy Fleming

Delicious fajitas, friendly staff!

Ashley Suggs

Their Fajitas are tasty and the meat is never tough like some other places. One of my favorite entrees is the Tacos Al Carbon. They are seasoned perfectly and the garnishes are full of flavor. The sizzling apple pie dessert with the caramel ice cream is heavenly! And they also have a variety of delicious margaritas to choose from.

Derrick Templeton

Coop lol spot. Nice happy hour

Mimi Penn

Great food. Good drinks Great environment.

Chris Yates

Service was great- food was just as good!

Riley Collins

This is my first time here and it was great service was great

Adam Buescher

Fajitas were just okay. The chicken was chewy. Overpriced for the quality.

Dr. Roberts

On Dec 6 2018 I went to cantina Laredo to listen to christina sing. I am a regular drop About $300. A month at cantina Laredo On this evening appx 5:45 -6:00 pm. The Bar was Empty except for one lady looking at the menu. The Bartender Came to me looked and said nothing. Not can I get your usual, chip's & Salsa. Glass of water nothing. So took my business else where and Will stay elsewhere. Not the first time Cantina Laredo has Dropped the Ball On customer service. And their are Some super Bartender's who work There. Not this one not this night. I won't be back. Too bad . Got a response From someone did not give me a Name To ask for in general. And standard Web Site no Name attich. Did read other responses Saw Name of Mr. Lane is he well at this point Kind of impersonal. Also I am not a Guest. I am a customer. A guest is invited and does Not pay. I pay their for have options. Also Follow up and through service with owner was disappointing. Was informed by owner would do everything in his power to retain me as a Customer. No results guess does not have the Power after all. Don't believe the Owner when Says He wants to make it up to you. Mr.Lang Never comes through on what He says.

Nancy Shelton

My first time there and I will certainly be back. The food was amazing! The waitress was very friendly.

Shawn Monroe

What a pleasant surprise to find! The customer service was absolutely top notch. The food was perfection in every dish. Very fresh, authentic Mexican food in a posh atmosphere. It is easily the best I have had this side of the border! To top it off, the margaritas are excellent! I will be back before my trip is over.

Jordan Rogers

It's a chain, but the food is consistently good and the margaritas are nice too.

Tiyonna King

Great food and great drinks

Tanika Pittman

Fabulous food and drinks, very friendly staff & great atmosphere. Our waitress recommended our drinks and entree & both were delicious. Great place for lunch or dinner!

C W

Gross salsa. Who serves nachos with huge pieces of meat AND no queso???? Just melted cheddar cheese? Mexican food is not meant to be uppity.

-a

Best date night spot in Little Rock! Yum food, great margaritas, relaxing/classy atmosphere, and friendly employees!! I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone.

Jeremy Tipton

Susie D.

Great service and consistently great food. Had our company Christmas Party here and everyone loved it.

Polly Torres

Enjoyed a great evening wuth friends on a cold Chicago night. Atmosphere and service were both warm and friendly. I highly recommend their guacamole and the fish tacos were delicious. Just a few blocks from Michigan Ave and worth it! I would recommend this restaurant.

Rick bellinger

My wife and I stopped in on a Thursday night. The atmosphere was fabulous for s date night. Rachel our waitress was friendly, and very professional. The cheese dip was not that impressive but the guacamole was top notch. We had tocos and enchiladas and the portions were huge and very tasty. We will be back!! Met the owner on the way out. Seemed like a great guy who was out to give great food and service.

Brent West

Fresh Mex in Little Rock. I love that they take reservations. Waitstaff were very helpful. Service was great and very fast. We had all our orders in a flash. Chips and salsa were great and the queso was very tasty. All the dishes were fresh and light. I’ve never been to a Mexican restaurant with a desert selection like this place. Parking was great and they have a patio area too.

Kimberly smith

Today I hosted my sister bridal shower at this Nice restaurant, I can’t explain how much I’m thankful for our waiter, and the restaurant manager. They literally went above and beyond to help in any way possible! If I ever host another event, this will definitely be my go to spot! Thank you so much.

Clark Walker

Food and service are really good. Dessert is to die for. We had the skillet brownie with brandy butter but we changed from vanilla to cinnamon ice cream. it's the absolute best thing ever

jessica anderson

My family and I came to this location multiple times while we were temporarily in the Little Rock area. We loved the patio area at night and would spend more time enjoying dinner here because of the nice patio and location. We never had poor service and always loved the convenient hours. Will definitely visit again :)

peggy Moore

I had a steak and it was delicious!

Gina Benezue

Service exceptional, friendly, above average. Food is always delicious and wait time isn't bad. Never had a disappointing meal yet.

Reviews by Hollie

Food was ok but the price for the food was not worth it. I expected much more for the price. Service was ok.

Bill Deckard

Excellent food, good service and economic

Kaila Dorman

I went here with a group of 6 other girls for my bachelorette party. Our table was greeted by the owner himself. He poured me a drink and came over to share a quick word of wisdom for my upcoming marriage. His sincerity and advice was more than appreciated. Cantina Laredo's management cares about their customer's on a personal level and they have always taken great care of us. I urge you to go visit them! You will not be disappointed.

Monica Shaw

Food was great, prompt service, and friendly staff

Freman Girdler

A little pricey but you get what you pay for. The best bacon wrapped shrimp, steak fajitas, carnitas from heaven that you'll ever want. Get a Hawaiian margarita or any fancy drink there and you'll be happy.

Dg Loyd

Always a good time. Great food and drinks

Evan hasler

Always has been a favorite of mine in Little Rock if you're looking for a classy Mexican restaurant. Good drink selection great quality of food with a variety of choices. The atmosphere is always friendly and inviting and the quality food presentation is exceptional. Try going midday if you don't want to deal with a busy crowd.

Dilsey

The ladies of Bethel New Bethel as we celebrated our 1st Lady Shannon. We enjoyed our server Sarah. She was patient she was kind she was smart she was All That & we enjoyed her.

Sammy Goodnight

Best place in little rock

Blake Crawford

This place is consistent. The guacamole is always good. Brunch is worth checking out. Management took care of a minor issue. We'll be back.

Takiela Spear

I when there last night to celebrate my birthday and I had a great experience from the waiter, food and alcohol drinks. I really like the fact they sat my dinner party right in front of the fireplace

Raven Hudler

Really good food and Michelle was such a great bartender!

Kyle Morrison

Always really good. Avoid the chips and salsa appetizer but all the tacos are great, but my personal favorite are the tamales.

Joyce Moore

Good food...good service...and we were a large group!

Joshua Thomas

Food was freezer burnt and service was awful.

Donna Chachere

I usual get tacos but I tried the Vera Cruz. The pulled chicken was amazing. Very light and flavorful. My new favorite dish.

DeAndrea Watson

My favorite happy hour

Lashunda Calvin

They lied to us about the white queso we ordered. Said it was yellow naturally. We told the waitress we new better and then was told it had been sitting a while. Later a bowl of white queso was brought to us. The correct color and all to fix the lie. However, they never would admit to the lie. Thanks for bringing what we ordered though.

Alison Hunter

Great food and service

Jeannette Schroeder

Food was your basic Mexican- American fare. Steak in the steak enchilada was cooked and seasoned well, and the on-table salsa was good. The service was a little frantic though. We seemed to be there during a training period or something. Had three people come up to us to take our drink order and our appetizer order was forgotten. I would be willing to go back again.

Mrs Rowe

The food was ok I wish the shrimp was deveined they was huge but its was ok I might go back

Dustin Kyle

Great tasting food and drinks.

amanda matthews

The food was delicious. Our server, Josh, was wonderful, and the atmosphere was pleasant.

samuel morris

Food was great. Good service. Clean.

Sarita Robinson

Slow service, had to chase the waiter down to pay my ticket, overpriced, food is not the best of it's kind in the city.

Daniel Ward

This place is unfair to all the other Mexican restaurants, it’s that good. It’s another level kind of delicious

Shane H

The food was very good. The service was excellent. I would definitely go there again.

Holly Barrett

Great food, atmosphere and margaritas!

Mandy Stewart

Food is fabulous. Drinks are better!

William Burgess

The food here is always great. Drink prices are a little high unless you catch happy hour. The service is always good as well. If you have seen not had the guac., they make it at the table for you. The apple pie desert is also made tableside and is highly recommend.

Jennifer Shelton-Turner

I enjoyed the experience.

Paul Prater

Don't expect your bill to be correct. Told happy hour prices when it wasn't happy hour. Then they did reduce the bill but not to happy hour prices. Come on guys. It isnt the guests duty to know your specials. That's on the servers.

Seth Duke

I can only describe the food as simply the most mediocre Mexican food I've had. Nothing was particularly bad, but the food was nothing spectacular. Certainly not worth the price. My entire party agreed our money would have been better spent at Senior Tequila. We had eater here several times back when the restaurant was fairly new and had always enjoyed it, perhaps we just swing by on a bad day.

Taylor Woods

Absolutely not satisfied with this food, here in town visiting.. my boyfriend and I ordered the fajitas to share and were told by our waitress that it would be enough for us to share.. took extremely long for the food to come out, once we got it the portions were so small we were talking about leaving ... there was approx. 4 pieces of each meat (steak and chicken) small small small portion of Rice we ended up telling our waitress we needed more.. not to mention she didn’t bring any plates for us, as she knew we were sharing this .. so we had to eat over our napkins .. definitely not worth the 20 some dollars, will not be returning here... not satisfied at all.

Fre Hickman

Great food and beverages. Although I see others coming here for a casual lunch, I've only been to Cantina Laredo for special occasions. It would've been easy for the waitress or waiter to get frustrated with our big, loud family, but they are professionals (and courteous ...at that) from beginning to end. We've never had any problems with our orders or getting our meals out in a timely manner. Parking is a nightmare at lunchtime, but still worth the experience. I enjoyed the chicken enchiladas and mango margarita.

Kendrick Raino

Very clean and chic atmosphere with an incredible staff. From the moment we entered the door we were greeted and seated with refreshments. It's a bit on the pricey side for a lunch if I'm being honest but the quality of the food more than made up for it! Highly recommend their fajitas! Definitely going again!

Nicholle Milligan

Love this place. Excellent food and service!

Amber Geisler

Great margaritas! Great guacamole! Love the salmon salad! It's my fave! Friendly staff!

Mandy Zepeda

Last visit the waiter was fantastic,the food was sub par. This visit the salsa and food were fantastic,the waitress was sub par. Not sure if we were seated in an odd area but more than one wait staff came to take our orders and there seemed to be some confusion. Nice ambiance. Very calming. Would be very nice for date nights.

Catherine Chapin

I don't go there often but have eaten there over the years since they opened. I have never been disappointed in the food! A little pricey but large portions, and a different kind of Mexican from the norm. So if you like Mexican food but are looking off something a little different this is a great place to go! Love the atmosphere as well! Can dress up if on a date!

Regie Longoria

Great high end fancy Mexican food. The low lighting and soft noise are great for romantic nights out. The wait staff was very friendly and during the moderate temperature seasons there's a lovely little patio you can dine on. I'd recommend going here at least once.

Alycea Wilkins

Great food and Great service! Drinks are Strong.

Laurie Hill

Wonderful high quality Mexican food, salads,steaks and fish served here. It is gourmet Mexican food. The food is outstanding.

Mike q

Awesome food and service.

Giselle Mercado

Went there yesterday and did not enjoy it. First I order a passion fruit margarita and it did not taste good at all. Then I order the Carne Asada and for 20$ it was not worth that price, the flavor was ok but the presentation was very sloppy and they only put a little bit of lime rice a small amount of black beans and 2 little pieces of avocado. Very disappointed and will not return there.

Rick Stanley

Great food, great service, great margaritas, you get what you've paid for

reese

Had a wonderful dining experience. From the host to the servers! Excellent customer service. Would definitely come back again. Food was absolutely delicious!! Such a beautiful atmosphere as well.

Michael Hedden

Good food. Very good service. Nice Tequila selection. Overall a very nice dinner.

Steve Hollowell

I consider cantina Laredo to be an upscale Mexican food restaurant The margaritas are very good and the Mexican food is also high quality it is also not overpriced.

AnnaMarie Forgit

Outstanding food and service. Very classy. I'd definitely recommend to a friend.

Wanda Proctor

Waiter was very efficient, polite. The food was very good,different prices. The atmosphere was very modern , there is a bar and looked like a banquet room. We had about 15 in our party.Would recommend other to check out.

Richard Stone

Original: Only ordered to go, but will be going back to eat in. Food was very good. Only had a little taste, as it was actually for my aunt. Update: (was 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

rcvamp

absolutely fantastic food. dessert is to die for

Dana Aiken

Always great food and great service!!

Mary Ann Falletta

Great food, very relaxing, cozy, great service

tasha elaine NOTAVERAGE

Service good. Food was very bland. No seasoning to it. Booth was dirty. Our waiter was good. But the food, overpriced and not tasty.

MAXED UP LIFE

Great Food, great service, a light skinned girl name Janika was my server, she was the best server me and my family ever had

Emily Hahn

A healthier take on traditional Mexican food, including a vegetarian option for almost every type of dish!

Chuck German

Overpriced for what you get and the wait staff are really snobby. Management is not competent.

S Dav

Came in on Saturday night for a birthday celebration. Was placed at one of the tables closest to the door. It was cold, we were frozen by the time we left. Asked about moving never got a response. Our waiter, ian, seemed to be new. Very little personality, when doing the top shelf guacamole, his butt was facing us, and used way to much lime juice. Birthday brownie is a usual great thing. This time not so much, brownie was old ,extremely hard, and nothing like usual. We will go again for bdays, but this time was questionable.

Kritta Wise

Very cozy place with delicious food.

Corey Greene

The did was awesome. They make the guacamole right there in front of you. Our server was great! The environment is perfect for a nice evening out

Jeffery Hill

The staff is always friendly, the service is always great and the food is always amazing! If you haven't attended there tequila tasting events it's definitely worth the price and the value!

Angelio Moore

Good salsa, building looks good on the inside. The tacos are OK. They just OK. For a place to be successful or thrive reach that next level. I feel it must have it's own speciality. Like a secret sauce. Make that happen cause this is a nice place. Their Queso isn't good. It's just not. It's bland seems like they just melted some cheese and put it in a bowl. I guess that's cool unless you tasted some really good Queso before. Enjoyed the drinks you can taste that alcohol. Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun ..... Nets flying pass my food. No discreet seats at a Mexican restaurant!!! Oh no, that's a star removed. Do you know the consequence for eating this type of food.? Have to take that star away.

Zurpz

Food is fresh and good

Casondra Wada

I went on a weekend for a casual lunch and there was no wait. The food was great and the service was good as well.

Jeremy Land

Really good food!

Rob Lacy

Tasty food and atmosphere for a couple's night out.

Jo Ann Coleman

The valentine dinner is always a favorite...try it great value but get the soup for first course it was awesome...service is always wonderful and management is great
