From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service provided by Adriana was absolutely exceptional she was attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly welcome. She recommended the margaritas, which were some of the best we’ve had, and we enjoyed them immensely. The food was simply delicious. The tuna Tartare is a must-try fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. We also order the Octopus, both cooked to perfection. Their house special was also outstanding, showcasing the restaurant’s quality and creativity. Overall, Cactus Rose is a restaurant I highly recommend for both the amazing dishes and the excellent service. A special thanks to Adriana for her warm and professional attention it truly elevated the entire experience!

Definitely a lively spot in Wilton. Fun music, cool vibe, dark lighting…. We ended up with a couple cocktails and appetizers but decided to get dinner elsewhere after seeing the prices. Perhaps upscale Mexican warrants the hefty price tag but I couldn’t find it in me to spend almost $30 on enchiladas. Spicy margarita was indeed spicy but tasted quite watery. Chips and salsa yummy but not free unfortunately. Clams were ok but the best part was the grilled bread and the sauce. Yum.

What a great experience! We had a lady’s night out. Margaritas and mojitos were delicious. We try the empanadas. Octopus special. Lobster enchiladas and Steak fajitas with rice and beans. Adriana was very warm and hospitable. We love this place. Will definitely do it again.

The food is FANTASTIC! We came with our friends (total of 4 people) who told us how great everything was. We shared several appetizers and tasted each others entrees. There was not one item that didn’t exceed our expectations! The staff was so friendly, courteous and right on it! Our server Jordan, was so sweet and friendly as well, provided excellent service and was so helpful too! I just can not say enough good about the whole experience! We will 100% be back because Cactus Rose is our new favorite place to eat!!!

We went to Cactus Rose for the first time this evening and were completely blown away from beginning to end. The friendly staff met us and got us a great table out on the patio. The maître d’ explained the menu and their specials. The wait staff was prompt and professional.
But the food! It was extraordinary. We started with a tropical guacamole with mango and jicama. Never had anything like it. My wife had mahi-mahi and I had shrimp with Spanish chorizo over mushroom risotto. Every bite was perfect.
From ambience to great service to excellent food, you have to add Cactus Rose to your list. You won’t be disappointed.

Over the summer this restaurant is always packed so naturally we had tried many times to come but were not able to due to the amount of restrictions in place due to the pandemic. We finally were able to make our way over just a couple of weeks ago and while the service was great the food was not what we were expecting. The appetizers were great, we honestly feel as though we could have just had that and been satisfied. But the main entrees were not very authentic nor were they very…tasty. Were they bad? No not at all. But in comparison to the appetizers, they fell short. The drinks were good and the complementary cotton candy is always a nice way to end the night. The prices are very high.

Very accommodating when we asked to be seated outside away from everyone as we had two kids who were hyper at that moment. The waiter was extremely nice and offered cotton candy for the kids at the end of the meal. The food was delicious and the salsa was fresh but the bottomless chips do not include the salsa FYI. Every part of the restaurant was decorated beautifully and I definitely got a Cali vibe from it all. Will be returning when in the area.

Except for the guacamole, I was so disappointed because this was a restaurant that I used to eat at frequently and loved. The food was so heavily salted that I couldn’t enjoy the actual flavor of the food itself. Also the staff was not very accommodating in terms of gluten free options or changes in any way. I have to take this one off my list of favorites sadly.

Only went for lunch, but pretty fast and nice service. The salmon on the salad was really great, I enjoyed the crispy skin especially, but it was a bit hard to cut with just my butter knife. The southwest salad was well chopped, and had great flavor but I had a hard time getting the beans and etc with each bite.
