Wonderful experience. The Brazilian Tacos were fantastic. The flat bread pepperoni with honey has a unique taste and a nice twist for a flatbread. A first for us was our food delivered by robots…..a fun experience.

I was in town for work and wanted to try a new restaurant in the immediate area. The last time I was in Los Alamos was in Oct 2023 and since then, I’ve noticed a couple of new restaurants that either opened since my last visit, or were there before and I just never realized it. A co-worker suggested this restaurant so I agreed to try it since I enjoy experiencing new businesses. Needless to say, I went to this restaurant 2 days in a row (7 Oct 2024 and 8 Oct 2024), because the food was good.

The restaurant’s décor was nice; the interior looked clean and organized. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all during both visits which was comforting because I didn’t feel like eating at a busy/loud restaurant – I get enough of that in my home city of Las Vegas (Nevada). I know some may not find it useful or a big deal, but this restaurant has one of those robots to help bring out the food which is always pretty cool to see. I know a lot of bigger/busier cities in this country utilize those robots in their business, so it’s comforting to see a smaller city/town like Los Alamos keeping up with modern technology.

I ended up ordering the Guacamole and Chips; Chicken Wings (Korean BBQ and Citrus Chipotle sauces); and Grilled Picanha Taco Plate with an extra El Pastor Taco during my first visit; and the Cantina Burger w/Bacon and Fries for my second visit. As I mentioned earlier, the food was good. I was especially amazed at how flavorful the Chicken Wings were, including their wing sauces that I ordered (Note: they offer more sauce flavors than what I requested). The burger flavor was adequate; however, I wasn’t a fan of how cold the hamburger bun was. The tacos tasted wonderful and the guac was served fresh.

The service was inconsistent between both visits – I thought it was weird that it took longer to get my burger during the second visit than it did to get all the other food during my first visit. The price-to-quantity ratio was adequate for the most part; however, some of the entrées could probably use a reduction in price (i.e., the Taco Plate was a little on the pricier side considering you only get two small tacos). After ordering/adding one extra taco to that plate, the total ended up being $20.45 for three small tacos. I don’t think I’ve seen prices like that unless I was at a more upscale restaurant back home. I felt it would be more respectable if the total was ~$15.00 for a 3-taco plate. Regardless, the food hit the mark with respect to quality so that made up for it…slightly.

Overall, I recommend this restaurant to everyone. If I’m ever back in Los Alamos and can’t seem to figure out what I want to eat, it’s comforting to know that I have this restaurant to fall back on since I’m confident I’d receive top-notch food.

Tried this place again because I had a poor experience after they first opened with the food and service. Unfortunately it hasn’t really improved. There was no salt or flavor for the Bavarian pretzel and it was the same for the chicken Alfredo. I think they might have boiled the chicken, and there is no seasoning used on it. The waiter only checked on us once and brought back warm water as a refill while my significant other got ice without asking for it which was odd. The restaurant had three times as many waiters as customers. They also charge $3 for a can of cola with no refills which seems like a bit much…

This was our second try at this restaurant and did not have a better experience the second time around. Went at lunch and it was not busy and the service and food were a long wait. The staff was nice but after ordering service was non existent. The food was an order of calamari and a charcuterie board. I have never had a crumble cheese on a charcuterie board. There was a cheese that was very foul smelling and when asking the staff what type of cheese it was no one knew nor did they know if it should smell like that. Very disappointing. The calamari was initially tasty but there was a cold clump in the middle of the dish that did not cook/fry.

A hidden gem in Los Alamos! We visited here for dinner during a roadtrip, and we got drinks and delicious taco plates. We really liked the avocado sauce. It also had great vibe and a cute robot that delivered food. Would recommend to everyone.

The Los Alamos Cantina is possibly one of the best hidden (by location) restaurants in the area. It’s partnered up with the Pyramid Restaurant so depending on your approach off 15th you may feel lost. There’s ample safe parking everywhere, and if all else fails enter in from the Pyramid side of the restaurant.

The wait staff is attentive, professional and courteous. The food is quick and unique for the area. I would recommend the fish tacos for a quick and tasty lunch.

The bonus with this restaurant is who brings out your food. Why spoil it. If you’re in the area, make the time and stop in, and find out for yourself.

These shrimp egg rolls were soooo good. Moe recommended them and it was a great recommendation. They came with two sauces. One spicy, one sweet. I didn’t expect to get so many for the price, so that was a happy surprise.

The fish tacos were great, as usual. Lots of food. Mahi mahi, sauce, rice, toppings, beans. Yum! Thanks again, y’all. 🙂

The “tractional” style picanha tacos are good. Caesar salad is pretty good. Chicken burger breading is spicy. Fries are good. Chips are good, too. Table iPads are gone, but the robot still delivers food, usually. Funny that the wait staff will take a chip from your food while the robot is passing by.
