Was Paige Kozey at A1 Cantina a mag?
I love A1 Cantina and was a regular one since it opened. The A1 salad is one of my absolute favorites! Although the service is usually excellent when I was dinner with some friends last night, we were basically ignored by our server all the time when we were there, which was quite unpleasant. I'll give him a break before I come back. View all feedback.
What Willard Brown dislikes about A1 Cantina:
This was our first time. Our server was wonderful. She moved us when we couldn’t sit on totally uncomfortable chairs. This restaurant is in a high end area but it needs lots of tender loving care -big time! Chairs are so bad. Tables are so small. Perhaps we may use pickup as food was good Place would be better as a lunch spot as uncomfortable chairs blasting music don’t make for a relaxing evening experience or oppor... View all feedback.

We couldn’t even hear our server!
Birria, al pastor, and fish tacos were amazing; guacamole was delicious, too!! Can’t wait to come back and try more.
The food and atmosphere were fantastic. Our server was incredible; we were just visiting and had the table for the entire evening. She never rushed us and consistently checked in to see if we needed anything. It was a fun dinner and a perfect night out, just what we were looking for!
