   The experience I had at Cantina Norte was excellent including the service, food and ambiance. I felt very comfortable and relaxed with regards to the total atmosphere. I would defintely dine there again.

   Excellent food and service. Definitely the best Mexican restaurant in Vancouver and actually the best I have had anywhere.

   The pork tacos are amazing. Possibly the best tacos I've had in Vancouver. 10/10 will taco again. The margs were also great Churros were just ok though. The barbacoa was really good but I'd rather have the tacos again.

   Our second time in weeks visiting this restaurant. The food is good and we feel decent value for everything offered. The last time we went we were told nachos were unavailable as the oven was broken? What! Is there no back up oven to offer for nachos a standard ask at Mexican restaurants. This time again we were told nachos were unavailable. Disappointed but other good options on menu. When we ordered cocktails we asked for a couple of palomas. She took our request and returned with ‘we’re out of grapefruit juice’ there is a thrifty’s adjacent to the restaurant.. pretty sure grapefruit juice could have been procured considering the restaurant was empty.

   The staff were lovely and it is a good vibe. However the value for the dollar is not quite there. There are better Mexican style restaurants around for quality of food but the ambience may make it worth while to eat here. Don’t waste money on the coffee at the end we ordered a decaf americano and it was probably the worst cup of coffee around.

   I want to say we went for lunch today and the service was impeccable. The waiter was attentive to all our needs. Did not rush us at all. The food was delicious we all left there feeling satisfied and wanting to go back again. Felt the price point on food was reasonable.

   The service was very slow . My sangria didn't taste at all like sangria, can't describe the flavour it was. It was the first time being at Cantina for my friend and she wasn't impressed. She wished she had known it was a kale salad , she was expecting a regular green salad. My rice with my meal was lukewarm . There were only 2 servers but I saw Think 2 management sitting t the bar but didn't help the servers at all!
