"Absolute garbage service and food.  Our server was rude and disgusting- saw him picking his nose and then grabbing food with his hands.  He is a tall dark haired guy with tattoos- stay away from that animal .  Also the tilapia tacos were spoiled.  My wife was hospitalized with food poisoning after eating them .  The owners and staff should reevaluate their l..."

"It was the most horrible experience I ever had in a Fort Myers restaurant.  The servers were bitchy and were probably on training (there were unsure of the orders), no sense on how to talk to the customers and take orders.  The restaurant was empty (maybe 5 tables were occupied), the guy with the tattooed arms took our order (he was extremely rude when we as..."

"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

"The food is what you expect at a Mexican restaurant. We have been here multiple times, usually during the week and the service has been very slow every time. Not sure why it takes 20 minutes to bring out 2 plates of tacos on taco Tuesday but it is slow! Don't come here if you are looking for a quick meal."

"Not bad, do not get me wrong. I just have a problem with the service. I have been here twice and both times the waitresses have been snotty and very cold. The food takes a very very long time and it's kinda just... eh. The food is bland and doesn't really have much flavor. They also charge you for every refill you get and they always neglect mentioning that..." 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.

"This place is terrible!  We are locals and have tried to eat here three times and each time the same.  Bad, slow service with tasteless, poorly prepared and usually cold food.  The chips are right out the Dorito's bag, beans straight out of the can and barely warmed while the tacos were all lettuce laying on a bed of wet lettuce.  After a long wait we went a..."

"Pretty good! Not gourmet Mexican or anything crazy special, but it was good & our server was really nice! Fresh, table side guac was good & the guy making it was nice & customized the guac exactly like we asked for it. We also got a pitcher of margaritas & thought they were super delicious. I got the 3 taco plate-I love that they have shredde..." Read more

"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

"Yesterday we were charging our Tesla at the charging station in the Town Center. We had our two dogs and asked the hostess at the Cantina if we could sit with them in the patio area. They could not have been more accommodating!  They sat us in the patio area, made sure the dogs had fresh cool water, and made us some delicious guacamole right at the table.  O..." Read more

"Well, the prickly pear margarita was extremely delicious & highly recommended. The chicken enchilada was very delicious, especially with queso on top of it. If you're looking for hot sauce to pair with it.. the Tabasco Chipotle sauce is perfect! I would definitely recommend this restaurant. The staff was friendly & Matthew was a really great server!..."

"Well to start things off, bartender had the personality if a we towel. No "hello. I'm so and so", just what do you want. Food was extremely bland. Got served a frozen margarita in a hot glass. And...we won't be going back. Should have listened to friends."

"Stumbled upon this place because the original place we were going to dine at was out of business. What really caught my eye was the fact that they had "109 different tequilas". I was so down for some guac and margaritas after a very long plane ride. The outside isn't too vibrant but the food and drink are spectacular. Everything is made to or..." Read more

"would have rated this zero stars but I had to give it at least a star to write a review. It was a group of 8 people took about 20-30 minutes to even get greeted let alone get our drinks ordered. Then, asked for lemon for my water the response from the server was as if I was unconvincing her took another 20 minutes to get the beer that was ordered would have..." 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.

"The service was prompt and friendly. He was honest when asked between two different plates and provided great suggestions based on verbalized preferences. I had the taco salad and was very pleased. The portion was appropriate and the taste was nothing to complain about! Also, the margaritas are pretty delicious--I always go with the frozen ones!"
