This is owned.by an amazing family. They've been around for 2 years and have established a nice rhythm while simultaneously raising their young child. It is a treat to see a family run place include the family. The food is excellently seasoned and the price fits the portions. Dancing at 9 on the weekends only adds to the charm. The ambiance inside suits a Mexican cantina- don't let the location of outside fool you into not trying great traditional food.
Yes! Yes! Please everyone eat here. This is our new favorite mexican restaurant. They have amazing food in every category. I like to go off menu and get all pastor enchiladas and oh my are they super delicious!!
They make home made tortillas. I am a little miffed that they charge for them instead of being standard, but it's a nominal charge and not enough make people scream rip off. They are worth it though, always upgrade!
This is a newer place and it's getting popular really fast and I hope they stick around for many years to come.
Not fancy or flashy or the best atmosphere but if your looking for some excellent food try this place. Fresh ingredients and attention to spices and detail the food is surprising. If your in the area and want some excellent fajitas with handmade corn tortillas this is the place to go. Margaritas and drinks in general could use some work, they are a bit sweet, small, low quality, and over priced (Jose Cuervo Margarita was 12 dollars). But the food is worth stopping in for, especially considering there is not a decent mexican restaurant within miles. Plus have i mentioned they always have a special or something seasonal?
Tacos are fantastic! They give you a choice of store bought tortilla or homemade. Always go for homemade. It makes a world of difference.
It's a new place so they're ironing out some of the kinks. Service and food were great.
Yum! Our waiter was attentive and fun and the food was delicious and of generous portion. Loved my margarita and everyone at our table raved about their dishes. We will definitely be back!
Welcome addition to the neighborhood!
Great food and very nice service staff! Everything is made from scratch in house, and the portions are huge. Two of us came here for lunch and ordered the lunch sizes shrimp plate with cream sauce and shrimp fajitas. Plenty of leftovers! Will definitely come back.
Tacos were foodie-grade excellent, the best I've had in the westside burbs. Small but at small prices: $1.75 for meat, or really $2.25 with housemade masa tortillas (totally worth it). Get another taco instead of upgrading to a taco plate; the plate's fixings were fine (especially the black beans) but the tacos were better.
House margaritas were a solid accompaniment, very good for $6. We thought the first ones were a little too sweet, but the second round had a nicer balance of smoke and citrus. (That, or the first round got us a little drunk; either way, it's not a complaint. Many places serve worse, usually at higher prices.)
Service was quick, friendly, and attentive.
Some of the sides were a little plain, as you'd expect from a strip-mall joint. The salsa and guac were very good but the chips were slightly overcooked. If they buy especially locally or sustainably, I didn't notice them mentioning it.
Still, a surprisingly good meal at a nice price.
I'm hooked! The food is fresh, the home made tortillas have me addicted to this place, nothing was bland. Beans, rice, guac, all dank! I'd give 4.5 stars if I could because the drinks are on the weak side and a little pricy. The food is reasonably priced and you get nothing but flavor and freshness.
Grabbed lunch from here for the first time today. Great service! The burrito was massive with a generous portion of carnitas, came with melted cheese on top, guac, sour cream, lettuce and tomato on the side. as well as chips and three different kinds of salsa. Sanchez Cantina looks like a family run joint and they definitely deserve all the business they can get. These guys rock!
Amazing tacos! Best tacos around this part of town.
My wife and I have been in several times since first trying here 2 weeks ago. It's our new regular place when the taco craving hits.
The tortas are excellent, the cactus salad is light and fresh, but the margaritas are the real reason to keep coming back! Try this place out, you'll be happy you did!
Pretty good food for the price. One of my go to Mexican restaurants in Portland. Very friendly staff, but sometimes you have to wait a while for service.
Went here on the Groupon and was extremely happy with the meal. Chips and Salsa were fresh and the Carne Asada was really excellent. Nice atmosphere...definitely recomend.
Everything was delicious and beautifully served. We had Carne asada and poll tacos with rice and beans and it was ridiculously satisfying. Great service too.
Great service, great food! The tortillas were hand made, tacos amazing. Great new restaurant in the area!
Very cozy. The waitstaff are always outstanding. Very good food. I highly recommend the home made tortillas.
Great food...the tacos were yummy and my torta was huge and delicious...friendly staff...will come back next time we are in Portland
