"So I’m changing my review finally. Because I finally food another Mexican restaurant that makes the guacamole for me a lot smaller and cheaper. First of all service here needs to be worked on. I think the waitresses got a little too comfortable with me because I was always coming everyday to eat here. Yes some stuff on their menu is good but not everything. I understand you want to make conversation and want to be cool with me because I was always coming but I’m just a customer coming to eat that’s it. Asking personal questions is a big NO. Secondly they’ve gotten so comfortable when I call to place a order they answer the phone saying want do u want I’m really busy… if you are busy then don’t answer the phone but to pick up the phone and say I’m busy want do you want Going forward this place is very expensive and not everything is good on the menu …when they service you water it’s warm and don’t add ice and if they do the put water first and then add the ice and warm still taste warm it should be add ice first then water. Also there water taste like start faucet water and they calm they have a filter for it. It’s disgusting so I don’t order water anymore or any drinks from here I just bring my own drinks now. Also , I can say this their guacamole is very good here but the down side is that they only do it one size and it’s a big size for 14$ very expensive and I don’t even Get to finish it because it’s to big … they don’t give you a option for a smaller one for cheaper .. so your stuck with paying for something to big and can’t finish . Orchata is kinda watery as well.their burrito de asada and chicken things toasda are very good and the ajillo shrimp dish is good but not everything on that menu is good. : this is Very pricy stop. But thank god o found me a restaurant that makes me that guacamole just as good and cheaper… when looking at my bank statements I’m spending 300 to 600$ a month on pulpo loco I think I derserve some better service … but that all changed now that I found me another restaurant… you’ll be seeing me a lot less now that I found that guacamole some where else lol :"

"I recently had the pleasure of dining at LA Cantina Grill, and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience that left my taste buds dancing with delight. From the moment we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. To start off our culinary adventure, we decided to sample their Mojitos. These zesty, refreshing cocktails were nothing short of tasteful perfection. The balance between the mint, lime, and just the right amount of sweetness was impeccable. Sipping on those Mojitos set the stage for an unforgettable evening. My girlfriend opted for the sopes with steak for her dinner, and she was thrilled with her choice. The sopes were expertly crafted, with a crispy exterior that gave way to a soft, flavorful interior. Topped with a medley of fresh and vibrant ingredients, it was a true fiesta of flavors on her plate. As for me, I couldn't resist the allure of their steak and shrimp fajitas! The sizzle and aroma as they brought the sizzling skillet to our table were enough to make my mouth water. The generous portion of tender, perfectly cooked steak and succulent grilled shrimp, along with the colorful array of peppers and onions, made for a mouthwatering, savory delight. I would also like to add that the presentation of the food was beautiful too. What truly surprised us during our visit was the lightning-fast service. We barely had time to take in the delightful decor and ambiance before our food arrived, and it only took a mere three minutes from the moment we ordered. The efficiency without sacrificing quality was remarkable and my girlfriend myself were both impressed. The guacamole, which we requested to have a spicy zest, was freshly made and provided the perfect kick to complement our dishes. The creamy texture and bold flavor of the guacamole were the perfect accompaniment to our meal. Now, the final touch that tied this exceptional dining experience together was the value. Our total bill came to $75, and considering the quality of the food, the lightning-fast service, and the overall experience, it was worth every penny. LA Cantina Grill has truly left an indelible mark on our culinary journey. From their delectable Mojitos to the flavorful fajitas, and the speedy yet impeccable service, this restaurant is a hidden gem in the heart of Los Angeles. If you're looking for a dining experience that surprises, delights, and satisfies, do not miss LA Cantina Grill. It's a treasure waiting to be discovered, and we can't wait to return for another incredible meal."
