"We hadn’t dined in at Lucha Cantina for a while, as we felt the restaurant took a turn, and the dishes weren’t quite up to our standards. However, after hearing about the menu changes, we decided to give it another try after a year, and let’s just say—Lucha Cantina is back! We started with the Chips n’ Guacamole plus two salsas, which were a perfect way to kick off the meal, complemented by their delicious margaritas. For the main course, I had the Hongos Tacos (mushroom), which were amazing and reminiscent of the ones they had a few years ago. My boyfriend opted for the shrimp tacos, and he thoroughly enjoyed them as well. The menu now features some mouthwatering new dishes, and the variety of vegetarian options is fantastic—everything looked so appetizing that we’re excited to come back and try more. The environment inside has always been a little on the darker side, but the patio remains a great option for a more relaxed and airy dining experience. We’ve always had great service and overall, Lucha Cantina has truly redeemed itself. We’re happy to make it a regular spot again!"

First time there was not impressed I got a steak burrito and the steak was tough and beans were cold. 26 bucks for a burrito and a Coors light never again

This is our families go-to for gluten free dinner. We have a family member that is celiac, and have asked lots of questions and feel comfortable with their level of care. Great food, great service, nice place for dinner!

Amazing small restaurant- everything I could possibly ask for. Never had food here that wasn't delicious, service is great, atmosphere is perfect. Recently went on a Tuesday to try their Tuesday special, birria, and it is delicious. Definitely reccomend trying it sometime! View menu

Visiting Rockford and found this amazing gem, Lucha Cantina. Located on the second floor, this fabulous spot has a bar, dining room, patio and event room. The food is absolutely delicious with the most awesome staff. A huge plus is there are gluten free options and they can substitute any cheese with vegan cheese. Just ask your server. This is a must, so check it out!

Was told about this place by a coworker so I went with my Hispanic friends and cousin who was visiting from Mexico and I am no longer allowed to suggest places to eat. Thanks a lot Lamont This place is like Tacobell in the sense that the food is good but it’s not Mexican food, more like “Mexican inspired cuisine”. But it has a nice atmosphere if that’s something you are into.
