"The outdoor mall is big, filled with chain restaurants and convenient to a number of hotels. My expectations, probably unjust, weren't high. But surprise -- this restaurant is pretty good!T predictably ordered chili rellenos as he does at most every Mexican restaurant he initially visits. (He's on a quest!) Despite being heavily battered, he said the..." Read more

"First visit and we enjoyed ourselves.
The house margaritas were excellent.
The food was a little inconsistent: shredded beef enchilada was great, refrained beans were good, shredded chicken taco was dry, guacamole was fairly tasteless.
Service was very friendly and helpful.
We will definitely return."

"This place is a solid 3 for food but service is great. Paula took good care of us. Capt said fish tacos were awesoMe but not filling. She taxed some of my fajita meat. No problem. Rice is awful; instant. Beans bad too. Guacamole should be served with fajitas not an add on. Chicken wasn't fajita quality; had some gristle. I'd come back for happy hour on a lay..." Read more

"C109 was unexpectedly good.  Service was great.  Chips & salsa excellent and my pork enchilada was excellent as well.  When I asked the waiter to turn down the music a little he said No problem and turned it down.  I also asked him to close one of the outside doors because I was chilly and he did . Very accommodating"

"Great place to stop for a pitcher of delicious margs and incredible service & food. We went in a Sunday & they had multiple TVs on with different games to watch. The complimentary chips & salsa are an instant way to my heart. I actually really enjoyed their salsa too! We also got guac & queso and the queso was my favorite between the two. Gua..." Read more

"Friday night I make a pickup order here. One thing to know before making your order is that some things on the menu are not being offered now. They don't say on the menu which ones.I got the daily special burrito. This had pork insides along with the typical burrito toppings. A little cheese was on top and it came with a side. I got the red rice. An..." Read more

"We ordered takeout and I'm so glad we did. Typically takeout is not as good as eating at the establishment. The menu is the same for takeout as it is to eat there,so it's a bit pricey for takeout.. UNLESS you stumble upon the daily specials.. My husband and I each got the daily special burrito with a choice of a side. I ordered mole sauce because it's my fav..." Read more

"Came here for a light lunch during the week and was pleasantly surprised. Ordered a mango margarita which was served in a 16 oz glass and it was light and refreshing. You get complimentary salsa and chips for the table as well a whole selection of hot sauces. Ordered the taquitos de chorizo (3 to an order and cut in half) which were great! The shell..." Read more

"Great place! Started with a large queso, which was excellent. Only complaint is that the large queso didn't really seem like a large, it was on the smaller side. For dinner ordered the Tex Mex rolls with sautéed vegetables and it was delicious. Victoria was our waitress and she was very attentive and pleasant! Definitely will come back when I am back in town..." Read more

"First time here. I had the Coco salad. It was delicious, fresh, and balsamic ranch dressing was great. It was topped with coconut shrimp. My husband had grouper tacos which were also great. Chips were fresh and light and salsa was good. Our waiter, Gavin, was very attentive and did a great job! We will go back."

"I judge the quality of food at Mexican restaurants based on margaritas and guacamole. Here the margaritas are def 5 star level but the guacamole was underwhelming. The restaurant is tucked away in the corner of a outdoor shopping mall. I recommend sitting outside. The jalapeño marg is what I got and it's a huge size ( almost too large to pick up) and delicio..." Read more

"Good go to for Mexican and margaritas! Items with sauces are generally more flavorful than "dry" items, and I particularly like the Mole sauce on enchiladas."

"Happy hour is a great value! $6.50 huge house margaritas! Beer and wine is $3.50. You can't beat it! The food was good. I had the beef enchiladas; they were $18....not worth that much. I'd come back and try the taco special. The service was great. Good drinks, good service - worth a shot!"

"Great specials from Sunday-Thursday. I had their Wednesday special which was enchiladas and a margarita for $14.99. The chips and salsa is unlimited, the salsa stood out with just a little heat with a slight smokey flavor. The beef enchiladas were flavorful, I liked their seasoned pinto beans and the rice wasn't my favorite. Now the margarita was freshly mad..." Read more

"I'm giving this place four stars because of what we have to compare it to here in Fort Myers. We grew up in Texas and Tex-Mex flows through our blood. So from an experienced and picky Tex-Mex lover, this place will do just fine. Service was fantastic, chips are fresh and the salsa is pretty good, but definitely made for a broader customer base (almost sweet)..." Read more

"Hands down one of the best tequila bars I've been too and best Mexican cuisines in the area. Good atmosphere big venue and great service. Every time I come here they always have one of the best consistent in house margaritas and they have plenty of options on the menu and customizable to vegetarian dishes!"

"One of the main reasons I enjoy Yelp is to find new places locally to go. My family and I tend to find a place we like, or two, and then go back to the same places over and over again. We have our wings place, we have our burger place, we have a place with pizza and Chinese food, but, sometimes we just get a hankering to find someplace new. This was the case..." Read more

"Believe it or not the best fish I had on my last 2 trips to Florida was at Cantina 109! Their wet fish fajita's are excellent, I actually ate it like a fish stew as I didn't want to tarnish the amazing flavors with a taco/wrap!The service was pretty terrible - but it is pretty much everywhere in Fort Myers, so I'll stick with 4 stars as its one of th..."
