    This was the worst meal we have ever had in a restaurant. The food was cold. The service was slow. The restaurant was very sparse. The lighting was bad. The manager made a rude comment when we wanted to move tables. This was a very bad experience. We will never go back.

    Cantina Laredo - ClaytonResponded on February 25, 2023I am terrribly sorry to hear you had that experience here. Can you let me know what time you dined with us so that i may counsel the manager who was on duty? This clearly is not the standard we strive for.

    The whole place smelled like cleaning supplies. The waitress was “Adrienne” was super nice she was also the bar tender and the drinks were the best part. She was the best part of the night. The food wasn’t that great.

    I love Cantina Laredo, always a nice atmosphere and the food is delicious. Their house margarita is great (I hate sweet margaritas and theirs is perfectly balanced). The carne asada dish is delicious, and I also love the queso and steak quesadillas!

    Service was terrible. From the hosts to the servers, most were rude and did not speak to us. We had 4 different servers handle our table. 2 of the 4 entrees came out cold but no one came to check on us for us to even notify them until the meal was over. They didn’t refill our drinks or salsa. Also, they’ve changed their salsa recipe and it was not nearly as tasteful as it used to be. We were so disappointed and won’t be returning to this location ever again.

    Cantina Laredo - ClaytonResponded on February 13, 2023We are very sorry to hear of this experience. If you change your mind please email us directly at the restaurant and we can discuss what we can do better for you should you decide to return. Thank you for letting us know. We are very sorry this happened.

    We had high hopes for a great experience, knowing Cantena la Redo was a national chain in a nice neighborhood. However, the food was marginal at best and we were seated near the restroom which had an unfortunate incident occur. We had to walk to the other end of the room to wait for our check, the stench was so bad. Not going back.

    Cantina Laredo - ClaytonResponded on January 30, 2023Saturday night was very unfortunate and i am very sorry you were here when our plumbing issue occurred. In time, if you choose to give us another chance, please just let me know and we will help you have a great time, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

    The food was very good. I had the lunch fajitas, and the spice level was on point. Did not care for the rice. Portions were large, especially for lunch. The issue was the service — we waited a very long time to place our order and a longer time to get our bill. The waitress was no where to be found.

    Cantina Laredo - ClaytonResponded on December 3, 2022Thank you for the insight. We will keep working to get our service to match the food!

    The service was absolutely AWFUL. Food was mediocre. We had to walk to the bar to pay because we hadn’t seen our server in over 30 minutes & they were not busy at all- maybe 8 tables in the entire restaurant. Then the server had the nerve to run out of the restaurant screaming that we didn’t pay. We will NOT go back.

    The food was delicious! When our server did come to the table she was very friendly and knowledgeable. However we did not see her as often as a customer would deem reasonable. The restaurant was not busy. We were one of 3 tables inside the dining room (patio was full but she was not waiting tables on the patio) and we had to wait a while to even order a second round of drinks. Disappointing as this is a great place, but we were not a priority for our server. When she brought the check over and we were ready to pay, that’s when she was the most attentive.

    The restuarant was short staffed so the waiters and servers had to cover a lot of customers. This is indicative of the times and not unique to Cantina Laredo. Overall it was a very nice experience.
