Wish I could give them more stars but my 'full portion' DINE IN chicken nachos were below average and small (pic below of my in-house meal, I didn't get a takeaway). They looked much better than they tasted. *Chicken nachos are one of my favorites as a requent traveler around SA. Unfortunately, my meal was dry and tasteless. A good stop for drinks with friends and if you're not going specifically for food. My local friends also prefer this place as a drink spot as consistent meal quality is not always guaranteed. Not for vegans or gluten-free peeps. The decor is a vibe though.

The casual and relaxing atmosphere draws one back time and again. Of course, backed up by great food, fairly priced meals and drinks, excellent service and constant presence of owners in the restaurant make this a winning formula for a great evening/lunch stop. A visit will always be remembered with a happy heart.

We were recommended La Cantina in Stanford from a restaurant in Hermanus. We love Mexican food and decided to give it a try. The atmosphere was fun and rustic. The menu isn’t massive but offers amazing Mexican staples (nachos, burrito, tacos, poppers, etc).
The drinks were great and everything was reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and the service was efficient. The restaurant was busy and the waitress let us know that there may be a slight delay in food. This was great as it let us know ahead of time to manage expectations. Even so, the drinks and food came quickly.
We will definately be back and would recommend it to friends!

Burritos in USA have more ingredients ( eg spicy rice, beans). But food surprisingly good ( for Stanford). Service excellent. Beer and wine good. Mexican music gets irritating after a while.

We had a wonderful experience at La Cantina.... once again!!!
We had reserved for dinner elsewhere and started off with a few sundowners at La Cantina. The cocktails were great, the staff friendly and fun and the owners hands on.
We headed out to our next destination and quickly decided to head back to La Cantina to enjoy the rest of the evening.
Food was superb and the whole experience an absolute pleasure.
We'll be back!!!!!
