Why Travelers Love Cantina los
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
everything is perfect!! starting off with food which is the most important. this is the best paella I've ever eaten, and with generous seafood portions and soccarat/crust at the bottom of the rice!!! exceptional skill by the chef to achieve the soccarat, in most places they just play safe and the rice is too wet. very good depth of flavour too besides that, ordered the pork tomahawk, tapas, and lengua estofado. over two meals -- the food was so good I stayed for lunch and dinner. throughout, the waiters are attentive and courteous, and I felt welcome even though I stayed for a long time. there's good RnB music in the restaurant and live music outside of it at night. please give their food a try! the food alone makes this 5*, but they had everything else on top of it and I had such a memorable dining experience here Completely disappointing. We came to this place precisely because of its rating and to eat something other than Asian food. To begin with, they didn't have any beef or chicken in stock, so you couldn't order dishes with those ingredients except for a few. We ordered "Cantina Salpicao" to share, and the dish was shameful—tiny, with three measly pieces of bread, and they were broken. It was easily enough for one person. The "Cantina Paella Supremo" paella was awful. It was more fat and bones than chicken meat, and the rice was burnt and stuck to the pan. You also had to eat carefully because small pieces of bone splinters were in your food. While the staff was friendly, the food was nothing like what we expected. We wouldn't eat here again. I recently dined at this incredible restaurant and it was an absolute delight! The mojito was hands-down the best I’ve ever had—perfectly balanced, refreshing, and bursting with flavor. Their burger was juicy and packed with taste, paired with fries that were cooked to crispy perfection. The ceviche had a spicy kick and it was still incredibly delicious and fresh. The servers were warm, attentive, and made the experience even more enjoyable. To top it all off, the DJ outside was spinning fantastic R&B music, Highly recommend!
