What 5Cara M (3 1 year ago on Google likes about Cantina:
WOW! The food at Cantina is absolutely amazing. This is the best meal I’ve had in a very long time. My husband had the veal parmigiana and I had the gnocchi salimbocca. The portions are huge and everything tasted so fresh. We can’t wait to go back! View all feedback. What Chris Monroe doesn't like about Cantina:
What the hell happened to this place? The food was always excellent in the past. All 5 of us were not happy with our main entrees. Each dinner was drowned in a soup like salt substance and the quality of what was not was just mediocre. The 2 fish dishes were nearly inedible and $38.99 each. How embarrassing to have suggested this place to my family. No working a/c either. Will not be back. Service: Dine in Meal type:... View all feedback.

Changing my vote from 4 stars to 5. This place is the definition of Hidden Gem. If everything isn't homemade, you sure fooled me. Fabulous! Thank you
