"Very good Mexican restaurant, we 've eaten here many times, as we live here So. Tahoe. The portions are very ample, all is very good, right down to the tacos. Tacos are normally considered to be small, simple food, but the tacos here are fat very tasty. The prices are also very reasonable. There are many Mexican food establishments in So. Tahoe, most owned operated by Mexicans their food reflects that point. But Cantina will give them all a run for their money. The ambiance is more of a fine restaurant, not a fast food joint. The owner purchased the restaurant/bar many years ago after having established his cooking reputation as the owner/operator/Chef of Evans, a fine dining, gourmet food restaurant just down the street a bit. We 've eaten at Evans on numerous 'special ' occassions. It 's pricey, but we 'll worth it the food is notably delicious. Evan 's ability to prepare good food is evident at Cantina as well."
