⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Café Cantina is an absolute gem in Pointe-Saint-Charles! The vibe is so cozy & unpretentious, & the murals inside give it great character. I had the fish tacos & a massive burrito, & everything tasted incredibly fresh & flavorful-definitely that perfect California-style Mexican comfort food. The portions are huge for the price, the service is super welcoming, & they have an awesome summer terrace. Can't recommend this place enough!

Expensive & tough, overcooked lamb tacos.
Ordered lamb tacos, received 2 tacos, some rice for $30! Lamb is un-chewable & very tough.
Do NOT recommend this place for lamb.

Charming decor, friendly service, & reasonable prices.
We ordered the tapas platter, & everything was fresh, & delicious.

We stopped by to catch a little of the World Cup, but as casual fans who aren't big beer drinkers, we appreciated being able to enjoy great food while watching some of the game

J'ai commandé un repas de 2 tacos + 1 tacos extra. La présentations pour emporter est excellente, les tacos sont excellents mais on aussi l'air appétissant même lorsque rendu à la maison! Tout était frais & les portions généreuses! Le restaurant existe depuis longtemps dans le quartier est c'est toujours aussi bon!
