A huge thank you to Comida Cantina for generously donating a tres leches cake to my class! The cake was absolutely incredible—so rich and flavorful—and the students couldn’t get enough of it. The service was exceptional as well. We’re so grateful for your kindness and community spirit!
We hosted my friend’s large bridal shower here and I can’t say enough good things. Service was perfection, for the first time in forever I didn’t feel like I had to do/plan anything. We ordered the food/drinks, dropped off some party decor and Jamie and her team did the rest. It was so seemless and easy. The food was delicious, so were the drinks including mocktails.

We came to Comida Cantina on a chaotic Friday evening, and it turned out to be the best night. Despite the packed house, both Trey and Wilson handled everything with so much grace and professionalism. Trey gave us incredible food recommendations — the Barbacoa enchiladas were absolutely unforgettable. And Wilson? Hilarious stories had me laughing all night. Their energy, attentiveness, and genuine warmth made the entire experience feel personal and memorable. Everyone should go — it’s not just great food, it’s a whole vibe.
