"The food quality is very good. The menu selection is comparable to any other Mexican Restaurant we have been to. Enjoyed the option to dine outdoors. Service extremely slow."

"The food was average, not bad but nothing special. The queso at Moe's is better. Big crowd in the bar was really loud. Salsa was fine, but again, nothing special. The steak in my Chimi was the highlight, nice char but not burned. Friends had margaritas and described them as lemonade, not enough booze. They remade one of them and it was still weak but probabl..." Read more

"Very poor service. Food was not exactly anything special. Waitress never bothered to come back and check on how we were doing. Had to find someone to give us the check Overpriced."

"Been there twice for fajitas (because everyone deserves a second chance) and don't need to go back.  If you're  primarily looking for a lively (noisy) bar atmosphere, this could be the place for you. If you're looking for high quality decent sized portions and authentic flavor, I'd venture elsewhere."

"7 of us went for dinner based on prior reviews. We called and made a res and when we arrived the restaurant was empty and no table set up for us. We opted to sit outside and ordered drinks. We then placed our food orders and waited a considerable amount of time for the food. 2 orders of chicken fajitas over cooked. Some of the other entrees were cold and we..." Read more

"Have been here a few times in the past 6 months and enjoyed. Went last night, they had a new, more limited menu (that doesn't always give a full description of ingredients) with higher prices than they were just 2 months ago. Doubt we would return here, too many other good Mexican restaurants in the area that aren't as expensive and yet better and more accom..." Read more

"Business travel. Dinner outside the hotel nearby outdoor mall restaurant.  The environment here tries to be cool...but it's really just a mall hang out.  Margarita had more ice than any other ingredient.  Manager is playing waiter....but there's not much of a crowd.  Chicken enchiladas were decent but small portion....even with the rice and beans.  Glad this..."

"Walk into Cantina 109 for an early dinner. Upon entry, atmosphere and ambiance seems cool. The place is clean and staff is super friendly and attentive.  Today is a Taco Tuesday so we have three tacos, beef, chicken and pork to sample their culinary cuisine. The beef tacos were flavorful but the chicken and pork were on the bland side and need additi..." Read more

"Cinqo de whenever....I'm a nacho freak!Monday special just happens to be nachos, it was destiny, and did not disappoint.Chips mounded with all the accoutrements, including guac and sour cream.

"Hubby and I popped in for an early bite. We ordered the table side guacamole, which was tasty.  My sangria was decent, although I only ordered one and my husband enjoyed his house margarita.  Service was good, we thought the dinner items looked pricey for mexican so we left after our app and drinks. The guac was plenty, actually enough so I didn't want to or..." Read more

"Great happy hour and daily specials. The food does leave a little something to be desired, but the cheap drinks make up for it. Great wait staff and bartenders make sure your drink is never empty!"

"This place seemed like a cool spot to hang out and have some Margaritas or frozen drinks.  I didn't have any food so I cannot comment on it.  The bar is pretty good size if you like seating by the bar and have drinks. Upon entry atmosphere seems cool,  place looked clean staff super friendly and attentive. While browsing the drink menu it was..." Read more

"The food was decent.. Salsa for the chips was not that great. Only reason why I can't give this place a higher rating is because the atmosphere was so sticky. It felt very damp and musty in there and the restrooms weren't any different. I can't stand when a table is so sticky that my boyfriend and I constantly using our own napkins to wipe the table. I just..." Read more

"OK service & prices but only average food. This is definitely Mexican food for the American palate. Also would wish for more options and flexibility on the menu, including combination plates."

"Wanted Mexican food for my birthday dinner with family. Decided to try here after the recommendation of some friends. Drink order and chips and salsa were brought out promptly and the chips and salsa were wonderful! The house margarita was disappointing, nothing but sour mix. My husband and I both ordered the taco Tuesday special and the kids from the kids m..." Read more

"Guacamole was made at our table and was excellent. Tacos not a lot of meat and to much cilantro, but was still ok. Very small amount of beans and rice, but good."

"Well the poor service started when we arrived here Wednesday nite. A family group of 6 we asked to be seated on the near empty patio. Nope sorry no room for 6, lots of empty tables that it was impossible to make into a table for 8. So we were taken to a table in the back of the restaurant. The food took over 30 min to arrive. I know this because my Tesla was..." Read more

"The food was mediocre and overpriced for what was served. The tequila menu is massive, but not a place to return to for food. The service left something to be wanted. Compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area, my wife and I will be trying others."

"Stopped here after a nearby basketball game as it looked interesting as we drove up to this shopping center. While the place was empty, the service was a little spotty. Took awhile to order and get our drinks. When the food showed up our portions seemed small for the prices charged. Not sure how long this place has been open but seems they may be working out..."

"Went New Year's Day with a friend for a light dinner. The Cantina Sampler is enough for two people, plenty of good food. Miles was a great server as well as the manager Paul. The margarita was superb, my friend greatly enjoyed the house wine. Chips and salsa were also good. "

"When we saw Mac n cheese as an option for a side here, we probably should have figured this wasn't the most authentic Mexican restaurant. But we went for it anyway and it was about what you'd expect. There are 109 kinds of tequila as the name suggests so maybe if you get drunk enough on tequila, the food would taste more flavorful. But in our sober states, w..." Read more

"I can sum up my visit to cantina 109 in one word. Meh. I had enchiladas. They were unremarkable. My wife had the fish tacos. She thought they were underwhelming. It doesn't feel like they put much effort into their food. On the bright side, everyone was friendly and we never had to ask for a refill or more chips & salsa. Everyone..." Read more
