I would like to take this opportunity and give acknowledgment to one of the servers at La Canasta. We had a very lovely meal and our server was absolutely wonderful her name is Melissa. She was very cordial, polite and constantly asked if we needed anything else. I thought that was so wonderful. I really think she deserves recognition for her outstanding service for La Canasta Restaurant. Thank you for hiring such a good employee.

I grew up going here for family events the place was always crowded and the service and food was always amazing. I ordered enchilida's no clue why I did because I am super picky when it comes to those. I did not like them however I do no feel that is their fault. I ordered something I have a hard time liking. I did look upset the whole time at the end The owners daughter or she might own it now I believe , offered me something free to go home with she said she noticed I didn't like my food. I loved the beans and everything else. However the reason why I was upset was we were looking for the hostess stand because there used to be one. We were talking about the change. I noticed a younger couple pointing at me laughing. whispering back and fourth and looking at me. My guess is I was being fat ashamed because I went to the restroom to try and see why they were laughing at me checked my hair and make up anything someone could find funny but I found nothing. I was depressed the rest of the meal and even struggled not to cry, I went from 102 lbs to 200 now after I had my son. So the weight gain is hard on me. So to feel judged over my weight in such a way hurt, to be pointed and laughed at. The ordering at the counter was odd. the extra charge for the chips and salsa threw me off. I missed the old family atmosphere this place had. However the Owners are still kind people. To the people complaining about it being dirty the its not dirty this place is old as dirt most likely just needs a makeover. The food is still amazing. The staff is still friendly. Id give it 5 stars if it wasn't for me not liking the new counter ordering and extra charge on chips and salsa.
Overall, solid experience. Authentic vibe & taste. Would return.
Very clean atmosphere.. Customer service was excellent. Homemade Mexican food .Abolignas soup was so flavorful. Prices are moderate .
The cashier was so nice, he saw how indecisive my wife and I were and ran to the kitchen for samples before we could even ask for it. The red sauce tasted very mellow with hints of smoked red peppers. The beef came out very tender, it fell apart in my mouth. The star of the meal though was my wife's cheese enchiladas with red sauce on top, so good. No pictures because we inhaled it so fast! The decor was beautiful, I also loved their floor tiles
The level of customer service is astounding! Very family friendly. Food is amazing. Chips and salsa are so good, we mixed the chunky with the hot salsa. Dont eat too many chips, you'll want room for the portions you're about to get. My husband recommends the carnitas tacos and I second that! I got the chicken enchiladas and they were delicious. Best part of our visit, customer service and tacos.
Food is super delicious, the place has changed alot but the food is still amazing. Got the flautas plate with chips and salsa.
At first the person taking our order was very rude. She then came to bring our appetizer and was completely different. The vibe and music was awesome.
The food was delicious 😋. Restrooms can use some deep cleaning but other than that, I would highly recommend to anyone.
The best breakfast that I've had in a long time! If you want grandma's home cooking, this is the place to go! This place has been here longer than most of the high rises in downtown Phoenix.
It's one of the best Mexican restaurants in the valley. I love this place. Lots of memories with my family here.
