Los Cantaritos is my favorite Mexican Restaurant! I'm from California and was concerned that when I moved to TN I wouldn't find good Mexican food. I was wrong! I've been to several that have surpassed my expectations but Los Cantaritos is my favorite! I highly recommend!

We've never been disappointed in a meal we've had here. Always delicious with quick and courteous service. It's nice to be able to sit in the outside area which is available rain or shine. Highly recommend.

I got the molcajete. My husband got the burrito with the grilled pineapple on top (I think it was called the aloha burrito maybe). The food was fantastic! The margaritas were somewhat weak and had a bright green color which I don't like. That makes me think they add food coloring which is needless in my opinion. We went at a slow time; around 3pm. The service was not great. The atmosphere was wonderful. It is very pleasant and cute inside the restaurant. The booths are comfortable and private.

Let's just say we've had a tough time finding a good Mexican restaurant ever since we moved to Tennessee. Thank goodness I had a massive craving of food from home and thought, why not try it? Glad we walked into Los Cantaritos, I loved everything from beginning to end. Their ambiance and decor is so beautiful with some truly breathtaking Mexican art. Our server Jose was top notch and quick! I had 3 carne asada tacos and they were by far some of the best I've had in Tennessee. My wife had chicken enchiladas and she was super impressed by them. They have a wide variety of beers too! My go to is usually Modelo, but after speaking to the manager and finding out they carried both Tecates light and regular ( red can and blue can) I was sold! Cannot wait to come back to this establishment. Truly a great experience here!

As a Mexican food fanatic, this is one of my favorite sit down restaurants in the area! I've come here for years, and the service is always fast and amazing- they are extremely reliable. The people are kind, and helpful as well- just an amazing atmosphere! Here's what I had Salsa- 9/10 Queso- 9/10 Burrito California- 10/10 Tacos Authentico- 8/10
