Editorial review from Citysearch 9/27/2013

Not at all impressed. I had the Enchiladas De Pollo and my friend ordered the Enchiladas Verde. They were both swimming in a strange creamy cheese sauce. There was hardly any filling in the enchiladas. All I could taste was the chessy sauce. The only good thing on the plate was the rice--best rice I've ever had in a mexican restaurant. Now I must confess, I am quite a mexican food snob. I'm from southern California and absolutely love real mexican food, but this dinner wasn't even as good as the tex-mex places all over Charlotte. Guess I'll have to stick to making my own, which is so easy now with all the major stores carrying authentic mexican foods. Thanks Cantina 1511 the beer was cold and the rice was great, but I don't think I'll be returning. more

Editorial review from Citysearch 3/19/2013

Before Cantina changed ownership, my husband and I would go there a couple of times a month. The staff knew us by name and the food was fantastic as were the prices. However, after the ownership change, the menu went from food that was unique and delicious to essentially a taco menu with a few, maybe five, ""authentic"" Mexican dishes. \r \r Also, the prices are now excessively high. My husband and I went there our last time and spent $70 with only one drink! \r \r Such a shame. I miss the old Cantina 1511. We don't need another ordinary Mexican restaurant--Cantina had something special. more

Disappointed 5/3/2011

We have eaten here several times and had never had a complaint but last night, our fajitas were burned and I could not eat the chicken at all. Luckily my husband did not mind as much. When we were finished, our server asked how everything was and I asked her if she wanted my honest opinion! She told me that she would get the manager and so we pretty much critiqued the whole meal for him. We were nice, he was nice. We had ordered one beer and one margarita with our meal and refried beans which were not eaten b/c they were overly salted and had no taste. more

Great place for drinks in Ballantyne 2/3/2011

With the limited selection of decent bars in Ballantyne...our work group has gone to Cantina for drinks and it works great. Food is always excellent, but the bar area is great for a group get together if it isn't too big (your group that is). more

Great Lunch Spot! 3/5/2009

I had a lunch appoinmtent at Cantina 1511 in the Stonecrest Shopping Center this week and let me tell you this is a wonderful spot. I sometimes forget how convenient it is to the Ballantyne area especially with it being located right off of 485 at the Rea Road exit but can assure you with the customer service and great food I will be back sooner than later. Our waitress, Angela who was also working the beautiful bar, was so attentive from keeping our drinks filled to making sure we never ran out fresh chips. Once our food arrived (I had the Enchiladas, always one of my favorites) the excellent service continued until we walked out the door and back to our office. Do yourself a favor and stop by for a real treat. Pros: Great Food, Great Value, Great Service! Cons: None more
