"La Villita Cantina is finally reopened on Franklin! The new location is right in between Birds and Sushi Stop. Our little corner is bustling once again! We came for opening as we were thrilled to have a Mexican spot open up. We ordered a guava margarita, and two blackberry margaritas. All were excellent, but I’d say the guava was the best, it’s rare to get that flavor in a standard cantina. To start, we ordered the smoked shredded chicken nachos. Then we ordered a variety of tacos. There were so many great flavors to choose from, but we decided on: Korean Popcorn Chicken, Chicken Shawarma, Quesabirria, fried shrimp, grilled wahoo, and jerk filet mignon. We were stunned at how delicious every single item we got was. I couldn’t believe they nailed such a vast menu, but everything was something I’d easily return for. AND the tacos are big portions at six inches long, so I’d recommend roughly two per person. I will be dreaming about these tacos until I come back. The whole staff was so friendly and excited to be open again. I can’t wait for our next night out here so thrilled this place is back on the block!"
