Great spot in downtown Fairhope. Food was above average and service was even better. Had a taco bowl…nice twist on a traditional combo. Their guacamole is also a do not miss.

The food was great, fresh. We had a new waitress Mattie! She was very friendly and did a great job serving us. It was her first time waiting on multiple tables and was new, she constantly checked to make sure everything was good. I made sure the manager there knew what a great job she did, when we go back we will be asking for her again!

Great food ( all of my many experience have been wonderful at this location ) in my opinion this is the best Mexican restaurant within 25 miles of fairhope. But if you have a large party I would call ahead and check how busy they are as the indoor area can fill up very fast as it is not very large.

I have tried this place twice. Food is sub par. Service is ehh. Don’t place a Togo order for sure. Not one item was right. Now I have to wait 5-7 days for a refund. To make matters worse. The food isn’t worth what Taco Bell charges. Never again will I eat from this establishment.

I didn’t like how there sauce was so watery and my green bell peppers &onions for my steak burrito didn’t taste like they were sautéed long enough- and I did a Togo order and it was ready in like 7 mins. 4/10

Having moved from Austin to Fairhope last summer after 50 years in Texas, I have pretty high standards for Mexican food. Catus Cantina is the best I have found on the Eastern Shore. I can name dozens of others that are terrible, but Catus Cantina is our perferred choice for Mexican.

If you feel like going South of the Border you won’t have to go for this in the Cactus Cantina in Fairhope! Excellent food and a fun atmosphere! Great place to watch Alabama football! Roll tide!
