We had an amazing time at Black Cactus tonight. It is upscale – delicious cocktails and excellent food. The decor is lovely – service was wonderful. It is pricey, but the quality is great and you’d be hard pressed to find anything cheaper in Avalon for a fancier night out. Highly recommend.

I ordered the salmon crudo which absolutely delicious and the short rib taco which was very good. A bit pricey and it would be nice if something small accompanied the tacos.

I had a reservation with 10 of my friends and we had a great time! The patio is super cute and our server Kyle was so cool all the guys loved him. The food was very quick to come out but we were not rushed out in anyway. A few of my friends got the drinks and said they were very good. Overall had a great time and the food is perfect for sharing with the table.

I had an incredible dining experience at this restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the service was outstanding. Our server, Griselda, was especially fantastic—friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the menu. She recommended the lobster nachos, and WOW—they were absolutely amazing.

I can’t wait to come back and try more from the menu. Highly recommend—especially if you get Griselda as your server!

We had a truly amazing meal last night with some of the most interesting flavor combinations I have ever had the pleasure of tasting. The street corn Caesar salad and the pork carnitas with mole sauce were the definite highlights for me. Their signature margaritas were also incredible, the best I have ever had. This combined with wonderful service and the chance to chat with their uber talented and engaging chef Jason made for an unforgettable night. Many thanks.
