Last night was our first time at Nueva Cantina. We had a reservation at 8:30. Sat down at 8:33 and a server didn't great us until 9:03. Food had a good flavor but portions were small for the price. Drinks were good.
New owners took over it and the menu, food, and drinks are terrible now
We’ve been coming to this restaurant for years and usually love it. I don’t know if it changed management or what happened, but it’s awful now. The food, service, drinks were all really bad. Food was dry and served cold. Service was rude and she forgot parts of the order. Drinks tasted like sugar water. We used to love coming to this restaurant, but now I don’t have a desire to go back. Overall not a good experience.
Absolutely the worst dining experience I have ever had. We reserve a large party (13 guests) for a birthday dinner which happened to be on Cinco De Mayo. Our reservation was for 7:30pm, we were seated right away however the room they put us in had zero air conditioning . They had a couple small fans that failed to even attempt to cool the area we were in. To the point a few people In our party had to step outside . We were waiting for our food for 2 hours. In that time another large party was seated, served and cashed out be... read more
We decided to try this restaurant based on a review we saw on Facebook and we were very disappointed. The food was not very good. The steak and chicken fajitas lacked seasoning and there was not very much meat. It was mostly onions and peppers. The corn tortillas were stuck together and ripped when trying to peel them apart. The cilantro rice was hard and tasted like it was left over from the night before. The chicken quesadilla was dry and also lacked seasoning. We did enjoy the chips, salsa, queso, guacamole and the black ... read more
The Food and Drinks are really very good. We’ve tried all varieties of fajitas which are delicious and plenty to share. Their margaritas are super good. We like HOT so we have them spice up the Spicy Pineapple Margarita and rim it with Tajin seasoning. DELICIOUS 🥵 Drinks come with seasonal decor. Ours had pink flamingos and colorful ducks. Food and Drinks get 5 stars Service gets 1 star at this visit. Service was very slow and our drink order was wrong twice and had to be sent back twice. Food came out late but was nice and... read more
Reservation that was made was easy. But our waiter was not very good, our drinks took 23 minutes to get. I mean yes we had a big party, it took forever to our first and second drinks. And one person at our table got their food with only one taco order when he had three and no one else got their food for another 30 mins. It was a nice place, also our drinks were okay the waiter also messed up our drinks with that, trust me we wanted to say something but he never came back. So this was our first and I think last time coming th... read more
Server was not very attentive. Took about 15 mins for her to get to our tables and when she did come we were not even greeted. She simply sat waters down and kept going and took several minutes to return. while eating she did not come to check on the table just look and us and kept walking (multiple times). Overall the food was good but the service was not.
We’ve been coming here for years and have always loved it. I know the place has recently “gone viral” and I’m so happy for this restaurant to grow… however.. quality of everything seemed to go down a little. We used to love the queso, it was just okay. All the tacos used to come with sides, now everything is a la carte… just a little disappointed. We also had the food runner mess up two people’s burritos and they didn’t realize until one of them started chowing down. Again- super happy for them they’re gaining popularity, bu... read more
