Review Summary

These reviews present Café Cantina as a standout Mexican spot in Montreal with fresh, flavorful dishes, generous portions and affordable prices. Dishes such as burritos, quesadillas, tacos and vegetarian options are praised, alongside a tapas style menu and very good margaritas. The interior is described as nice and the terrace in summer is a plus, with friendly staff and good music contributing to a welcoming vibe. The place is often called a hidden gem where nearly every item is appreciated and many diners say a return visit is likely. Occasional cautions include slower service at busy times and a mix up with a takeout order on one occasion. Overall the impression is reliable quality, a lively yet relaxed atmosphere, and strong value making Café Cantina a frequent choice for those seeking a satisfying meal.

Stumbled by this place by accident & it didn't disappoint! Tried their chicken burrito - it was very large, super fresh & pretty delicious. Excellent value for the money & a healthy food option as it wasn't greasy or oily. Nice interior too!

Love this place! Always fresh & delicious, affordable prices. I'm surprised it's not more popular, what a gem 💎 I tried almost everything from the menu, you can't go wrong here.. my favourite is lamb burrito, really to die for! 🤤 on the photo a yummy vegetarian option: sweet potato tacos with salads 🌮

Food was delicious & fresh! Got the enchiladas mix vege & quesadillas mix vege. Ambiance was perfect, very cute spot, the music wasn't too loud as well which is hard to find. Service was fast & nice too. They are also having an event on Feb 14th dancing & live music. Lots of vegetarian options too.

If you eat there, the wait can be a little long, during lunch time.
I've ordered take out for 2 during supper time & was out in 8 minutes.

I've only had the veggie burrito everytime I went, & I really enjoy it. My husband takes the chicken or beef one & likes it as well. We go every 3 months or so.

I'd say, it's a hit or miss on the nachos really, depending if you get the bottom of the baril, or a fresh new batch.

Some can say the rice is a little dry, well it kind of is a bit, but it tastes good in my burrito. Expect to pay about $14 per person tops for your meal if you are not taking any entree or drink.
