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!

J'ai adoré mon expérience chez Café Cantina. Les ingrédients sont frais, les tacos étaient savoureux, & le jus pomme/carotte/gingembre délicieux. Je recommande :)

Restaurant Wow ! Cool à souhait, très bon, frais & généreux. Les plats sont frais, copieux, goûteux avec une ambiance low key. La margarita est à 6$ de 5 à 7 & elle est divine... what's else ?

Très frais & délicieux, mais un peu cher. Les prix, pour moi, étaient déjà un peu élevés avant l'inflation actuelle.
