I think that this was the best Texas fajita I’ve ever had. The flavor is amazing. The GM Juan here was extremely friendly and a made my visit a great time. Definitely going back.

This has become our absolute favorite Mexican restaurant in Pensacola. Guys get the chorizo cheese dip. Yummy! The drinks were great and reasonably priced for the size. We really enjoyed the food and service. If you haven't went yet, you must!

Everything was great. From the staff to the food. I had the Texas Burrito and my wife had the three tacos. We also had a large Cactus Margarita which I couldn't finish because it was so big but it was good. Try it out.

Great Mexican restaurant, excellent salsa, and chips. Very good wait staff, we were waiting on a couple of friends and our waitress was wonderful and patient as we took our time. The margaritas, both frozen and on the rocks, are excellent. Especially the Mango margaritas. The fish tacos were amazing, I definitely recommend them. Great place to gather and eat in a larger group.

What a FEAST! It was a spectacular first time! Every dish we ordered.... It was so full of flavor! And we got tested to try the cheesy grits since we were first timers. 😍 They were the best!
Highly recommend and will be back next round to the airport!
🎉 Marjorie is a top notch server if you happen to get her on the visit in! 🔥

We go here a lot while in Pensacola for our Mexican food fix! The service is great the food is delicious. My wife loves the shrimp fajitas and when I’m really hungry the Texas burrito. They have a great bean cheese dip for starters and a great selection of beer margaritas and a host of other drinks. The only way I give a 5 is restroom’s. They are clean but a bit dated. We like to sit in the bar because some of the seats in the dining area sink about 6 inches when I sit down which isn’t good for my bad back. These are minor problems compared to the overall experience! Check it out we think you will enjoy this restaurant. I will update this review with pictures shortly.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Cactus Cantina, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we stepped foot inside, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the stage for an outstanding dining experience.
One aspect that truly stood out was the exceptional service provided by the staff. Our server, let's call him John, was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the lunch. He made excellent recommendations and catered to our every need, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of perfect. John's professionalism and genuine interest in our satisfaction greatly heightened our overall dining pleasure.
Speaking of pleasure, the food at Cactus Cantina is to die for! The menu offers an extensive selection of Mexican delicacies, ranging from traditional favorites to innovative creations. The dishes we ordered were beautifully presented, bursting with vibrant flavors, and made with high-quality ingredients. Whether it was the succulent fajitas, the mouthwatering enchiladas, or the flavor-packed tacos, each bite was a delight!
Cactus Cantina offers an extraordinary dining experience that caters not only to individual diners but also to corporate guests. The exemplary service provided by the staff, along with the delectable food and excellent ambiance, make this restaurant a true gem. Whether you're looking for an exceptional meal or a space to host a company meeting, Cactus Cantina is undoubtedly the place to be. I highly recommend it and cannot wait to return myself!

My husband and I came here for his birthday. We loved it! The service was awesome. I was surprised when our meals were set in front of us in minutes. Best Mexican food we have had in Pensacola. I highly recommend this restaurant.

This is my first time here. A buddy and I came in on a whim and bellied up to the bar due to lack of available seating (they are popular so it’s expected). The bartender (Julianna was OMG A-amazing!!!) and the manager Rochelle were so helpful and courteous to us that we felt like VIP. It really is a unique experience. Exquisite food with reasonable pricing. The staff is friendly and very understanding if you don’t know what to order! They are happy to work with ya. It just makes me feel good knowing the crew is enjoying their job, it means the management is doing their job correctly.

We had a pretty good experience here surprised how busy it was for a middle of the week early dinner. Started with the chips and salsa, had a beer and margaritas then tacos and a burrito bowl. With how busy it was service was actually pretty quick nice spot to hop over to if you are stuck at the airport. They have to-go ordering also. We will come back or try another location again.

Menu looks pretty good, though the food itself does not live up to the written menu. Little atmosphere. Server was very friendly, but spread too thin to provide good service, with drinks empty for much of the meal and one order coming out in two waves 5-10 minutes apart. Won't make plans to return, but it looks like the right place for a post-work "Happy" Hour

Came here with my fiancé for a late lunch. I had the Texas tacos. He had a chicken quesadilla. Both were amazing-dilicious!
Update: Came again. 12/17/2022 Cedrea was our server. She was very attentive and had a fantastic personality!! (Even tho she recently lost her dear mother)
Hubby had The Beef Chimicanga Dinner. The flavor was great. He said it could have been crisper, tho. I had the pick 2 combo: Steak Taco (yum!) and Chili Relleno...planned on saving half. Oops!! It was so damn good. I ate the whole thing!! Oh yeah! I also had the Cactus Margarita. The bartender spoils me well!!
