Overall Thought: Go, If You Have To
My recent visit to Blue Cantina left me with mixed feelings. After an unexpected closure at Holy Taco, I stumbled upon this spot, only to be met with an ambiance that felt a bit off.
Upon entering, I couldn't shake off the strange smell lingering in the air, and the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. Despite the midday visit rendering the place empty, the server was pleasant and accommodating.
While the lunch specials boasted great prices, there was an unexpected twist when Ownership suddenly withdrew the lunch menu, catching both the server and patrons off guard.
The establishment's rules seemed a bit stringent—mandatory 20% gratuity during peak hours and a two-hour maximum stay policy. Even during non-peak hours, we found ourselves slapped with the gratuity charge.
However, amidst the quirks, the drinks shone brightly. They were potent and delicious, making them a highlight of the visit. The nachos, perfectly sized for two, and the egg rolls added to the redeeming factors of the experience.
On the upside, the availability of free parking in the AEV lot is a significant advantage.
While Blue Cantina might not have left the best first impression, the prospect of returning for the stellar drinks and appetizers is not entirely off the table. If I find myself in need of a drink spot with free parking, I might give it another shot.
I enjoyed this spot. The crowd was a little young for my age but still doable. The food was on point with taste and portions. The drinks were aight. I enjoyed the atmosphere though. Would definitely recommend.
We received our wings way before our fries were brought out which wouldn't have been a problem if our waitress kept us up to date. Then when it was time to pay we never received a ticket due to the printer being down which led to my whole party tipping double because we didn't know gratuity automatically came out. Food was good but service is more important!
Let me start by saying the staff is awesome! From the security working the door, to our server, and the bartender. Very nice service. But do NOT go for the food. Go for the drinks (The Hennessey margaritas were fire) and music. The food was meh. The salsa has an awkward taste. Don't buy it to see if I'm lying cause you're just gonna be mad. Trust me. And burritos had NO flavor even after they were deep fried and covered in cheese! Definitely go here cause the vibe was on point but eat before you go.
WHOLE AVACADO pit in the quac dip. No cheese “queso” on the burrito when we paid extra for queso on it. The food we did get was salty as hell. Do not order from here…. The pick up service was SLOW. It was expensive, and the quality was awful. Not to mention the order was not correct. $112 I cannot get back. And food on one will eat…. It’s just sitting here in the kitchen.
Thursday night, first time visit for our monthly family gathering. We had a ball! Reminds me of a one-way in and one way out juke joint. The atmosphere was awesome . We enjoyed the karaoke 🎤 😄. Our server Jayla was very friendly and attentive. The food and drinks were great and served as we ordered. We will be back!!! Try the peach bourbon wings. They also patio dining
This location is definitely the meeting spot and beginning of many long nights. The tacos are definitely original, i didn’t enjoy the flavor. However the fajitas ARE amazingly yummy fresh and served hot. Service is always quick and hookahs stay lit! Drinks are strong lemon drops are what the photos are of. Usually always crowded and parked is limited. However great nights have always started here!
Great vibes! We sat on the patio 💃🏽 We enjoyed conversation with other people! The server was amazing. Great food. Gratuity is often included. This was my 1st time here! I will definitely be back!
I was craving a burger and fries today and did a quick Google search and stumbled upon Jimmy Jamâs page and noticed he had a 5.0 rating with raving reviews so of course we hopped in the car and made that 50 min drive to patronize! This brother is r
