Edit... They have changed the menu drastically and I'm gonna be honest... Less good now ...
I've been a handful of times now and I gotta say that the mango habanero hot sauce is on POINT! The guac is very good and a bit peppery. I get the flower power taco and it's awesome. I need to add shot sauce but I'm a spice fiend and it's really very good without it. If you need another veggie option, they can alter the crispy cactus for you and it's definitely worth it. I always door at the courtyard bar so I can only speak to those bartenders but so far they've all been excellent. Friendly, timely, and knowledgeable. Also patient.

First off I want to say we had the best server in Kenneth on January 5, 2020. It was a group of us from Texas. He was very polite, courteous and professional. The food was definitely something to talk about. My first time having a seafood omelette surely will not be my last. This was my first visit some of my friends had already been here before. The bartender at the entrance was pleasant as well while we waited. The wait wasn't long by any means. I wish I could have eaten more but I physically didn't have any more room lol. I look forward to going back and trying other things on the menu. Another highly recommended place.

The tequila selection here is insane. Epic place with live Jazz and amazing cocktails. Only thing is they had issues with foreign bank cards. Lucky I had cash. 😁

We stopped in to grab a drink. The inside of the restaurant was closed, but the patio was open. There was a band playing jazz the entire time we visited. They were good, very entertaining for the crowd. The food was very good, amazing tacos. The service was ok, we would have drank more but our server was too busy to get to us most of the time. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Frenchmen St, or New Orleans.

Overall. Great experience. Food and service was great, the atmosphere was fabulous. I loved the cabana seating. The manager came by and gave us all the weekly specials and such. I’m not a huge Mexican fan, but was impressed.
Only think I would say is portion control, I had the coconut shrimp taco and it was had to hold because it had so much on it and perfect your top self margarita.

Nola Cantina is a great place. The live band we had was very good and we spent a good time listening to them.
The food was nice and our waitress gave us good advice to help us choose our dishes. The outdoor space is great to spend a good time. Go check it out.

Love this place!!!! Ambiance is relaxing and romantic. Drinks are good and the queso fabulous! Their salsa is really good. The tamales bites were disappointing...
Really liked the band that was playing.

I really like it here and their outdoor patio is super legit! They have covered cabanas with outdoor couches and fans in them; perfect for the summer heat! My favorite taco is the Pibil Pork taco. They do half off tacos and cheap drinks daily from 4-7 PM. What a great deal and a good vibe! They have bands and their playlist is ultimate thrift store type music everyday. Woot!
