CT Cantina & Taqueria

Very nice establishment in Fayetteville. The food and service were very good. It was a little on the pricey side for the size of servings you receive. I ordered the three sirloin tacos, was expecting them to be larger for the $19.00 price tag, they were good though so I was fine with it. The other family members were all happy with their choices! The decor of the inside was very nice, included loft seating, sweet! We all commented we’re sitting up there the next time! Enjoy!

The decor and vibes here are so fun and chill….BUT…..while our waitress was nice, she definitely wasn’t attentive. Our appetizer of esquite came out less than one minute before our meal. No exaggeration. It also didn’t taste great. The corn was so sweet, it should have been cut with something acidic. I had to ask for water refills and napkins multiple times, even after our waitress saw that I was cleaning spilled salsa. Again, my meal came out a minute after the appetizer so even if it did taste good, we didn’t have time to try to enjoy it without our meal going cold. When we left, there were 4 employees standing at the bar chitchatting with each other. Not one of them looked up to say thanks for coming or have a nice day. Sub-par service and food for too much money.

Absolutely amazing food at CT Cantina Taqueria! We had the queso birria, chips and salsa, and their loaded fries—everything was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Portion sizes were generous, prices were very reasonable, and the overall vibe was great. Highly recommend if you’re looking for quality Mexican food in the Fayetteville area!

This is an authentic Cantina. You get the chips and salsa at the beginning. The margaritas are spectacular and come in various tropical flavors. This cantina is situated right at the in flux area to Trilith, so you can't miss it. You can sit outside and do some serious people watching while you eat or inside. We had the street skillet, which was a meat lover's dream, and we had the Chimichanga. The portion sizes were impressive.And certainly you won't leave this place hungry. They make and bottle their own mocktails, which is a really cool deal. Mine was mango and lime fizz. And it came ice cold in a good size plastic bottle with a soda can lid. So you can pop the top and pour over ice or drink straight from the bottle. We ate there at a really busy time. So no, maybe our server, I had a lot on her plate, so to speak, we had to ask her a couple of times for the same things. She kept forgetting and had to rush back..but, hey, we can forgive her some of that because being a server is really tough. But that's the reason I cannot give five stars for service. Having to flag her down and ask twice for more water or asked twice for the check and to-go boxes makes you feel like you're being a bug. That said. All in all, it was a splendid dinner.The cause it matched with the efficacy of the food and we left pretty happy.

The Orchata was exceptionally delicious and flavorful. The establishment boasts a charming, beautiful, and relaxing atmosphere, but the 30+ minute wait for grilled fish tacos, specifically ordered with corn tortillas, was excessive. Regrettably, the customer service fell short of expectations, resulting in a less-than-satisfactory experience…

We were just looking for a place in this area for lunch and decided to try CT's. The atmosphere was nice and the customer service was really good. They give you free chips and salsa (several different salsas in the tray). The food and drinks come out in a very timely manner with a great presentation. The food itself was also good, fresh, and hot and portions were good.

I really wanted to like this place and was hoping maybe we had found a new place to take family and friends to. But one and done and I don’t think we’ll venture to try it again. Our food was just okay—nothing spectacular that made us say, "Yummy, we’ll definitely be back for this!" We ordered queso for the table, but they had run out. The guacamole was more like a spread I would put on my toast rather than a dip. I did ask if the lack of queso meant it wouldn't be included in the main dish, but I was told that was not the case. Here is the questionable queso on my chimichanga.

The salsa is so fresh and delicious. I will say the food is good it’s not the best I’ve had but it’s worth giving a try. Service was great and the restaurant is gorgeous. The menu is pretty big so you have a wide selection of options.

Juliana makes the best strawberry margaritas ive ever had. Friendly staff and great food! Highly recommend!

We go here almost weekly it's so good! Start with a blood orange margarita. Next is chips with 4 salsas. The roasted black salsa is my go to. Highly suggest you add guacamole for the table. For dinner. Tacos. I get the barbacoa. Add a dollop of salsa and that appetizer guacamole on top and you've got a stellar food combo going on. If you're feeling particularly saucy order another margarita to go. Yep to go margis. To be enjoyed when you get home.

Horrible service 45 minutes to get my RICE BOWL? Canceled my soup Taco Bell may not be as good but I don't sit waiting 45 minutes without an explanation My last time here It's overpriced and food is NOT special

Seriously disappointing. I heard this place was the latest and greatest in Fayetteville (Trilith) for Mexican. Perhaps I held my expectations too high. What I did not expect was for every dish to come out smothered in some red sauce. To begin we ordered some queso dip and chips. I heard the chips are made in house and was looking forward to trying them. Fresh? I feared I would break a tooth on them! They were stale and hard and not hot and fresh. The queso dip however was quite delicious. I ordered an al pastor taco. Assuming it would come the way it does here in California. Two tortillas topped with lettuce, pork, cilantro, pineapple. What I got was one soggy tortilla with some pork and red sauce on it. Not a pineapple to be found. Impossible to pick up and eat. Tacos that you can't pick up.... I also ordered the carne asada fries. How can you mess up fries, right? It also came smothered in red sauce. The only great thing about this place is the bar and the drinks.

CT was just okay. Although they had a few veggie taco options to pick from which was nice, they all just tasted okay. I didn't finish eating a couple of them because the flavor just wasn't there. My order was wrong when I first received it and had to send it back which was a little frustrating. They bring out a salsa bowl that includes 4 small salsa options with some chips when you sit down which was nice, but a couple of them are on the spicy side so just keep that in mind. Overall it wasn't a bad experience but nothing made me want to go back.

The only negative comment: the ceiling fan above our table was turning clockwise instead of counterclockwise. Otherwise, I enjoyed my first time visit immensely. My Margarita, the guacamole, and mini tacos were delicious!

Walked in for dinner on a Monday night, granted it was a holiday they were short staffed which is understandable but being told 45 min we were almost deterred from dining. The flow of the decor was flawless as was the presentation of the food and table set up. Our server was attentive and checked in with us frequently. The taste was very authentic and genuinely good. Give this place a try!

I am very pleased with this restaurant. They have seating on main level and outside in the heated patio. There is also seating upstairs. The decor is lovely, gives an upscale vibe. The service was phenomenal!the staff was very friendly and attentive. I absolutely loved the variety of salsa a fresh chips tat was served. The guacamole was fresh and good. Delicious fries and the drink was really good. Definitely a great date spot or lunch with friends.

I had high expectations for this place. Cute decor and vibe...it took about 10 minutes for the server to acknowledge me and another 10 minutes to come back with water. When she returned again we received our chips and salsa...I am low on the heat scale and all 4 were spicy but I could tolerate the green..I liked having options for salsa. I ordered the Fieta bowl and friend ordered the street tacos. I ordered the Fresca margarita, it was good but not $16 good. Friend ordered pineapple Rita with same thoughts..Food was ok but not as flavorful as I expected. Oh and looking at the receipt there's a 1% Trilith charge. So they charge u for just showing up...weird to me...I will try other spots in the area but I am good on this one.

Outstanding. The drinks are high end ingredients and taste delicious. Restaurant reminds me a bit of a French bistro vibe. The food was fresh, prepared to order. I would highly recommend this restaurant as the best Mexican restaurant around. Christian was our waiter. His service was impeccable. He never hovered or rushed us. Our meal was beautifully spaced out to enjoy dinner and company.

Best Mexican we've had in a long time! They make their own chips in house from scratch and have probably the best queso I've ever had! The staff was super nice and the seating was really cool and modern. I got a steak and a chicken taco and they were so juicy and delicious. We'll definitely be back!

Great food. Ingredients are fresh. Meat seasoned well and good portions. And they have the best Mocktails ever

Draped with curtains and a marquee sign above the bar, you get the feel of small town Hollywood from the moment you walk in. The salsas are authentic with plenty of spice and flavor. Their mini tacos look amazing, and with so many options, it's easy to get the large plate meal that can come with up to 6 different tacos, but I went with the Jalisco Burrito, which was still delicious and filling.

This is located in a very cute community. We stopped here for a light snack and drinks. We were served chips and 4 different varieties of salsa. Very tasty. My cousin got a skillet chocolate chip cookie. It was served with ice cream. I had a nice drink with strawberries and cranberries and liquor with a sugar rim. My cousin got one with blackberries. They were both delicious. Just the right balance of liquor and juice. If you are looking for a nice hang out spot this is it. There are lots of other shops and restaurants to explore as well. Parking is available on the street or there is a parking lot.

A solid spot if you're craving Mexican food! We got: - red snapper ceviche: 5/5. Flavorful, citrusy, delicious! - 6 street mini tacos, 2 shrimp, 2 Al pastor, 2 steak: 3.5/5. The Al pastor tacos were specifically a 5/5 and soooo good, so I was disappointed that the others were okay in comparison. The shrimp was second best and then the steak last. The steak flavor just wasn't my favorite. I will say the salsa rojo on top was one of the best I've ever had. I wish I just got al pastor for all of them, it was THAT good! - mango chamoy margarita - 5/5 AMAZING, has mango puree in it too not just a flavored syrup of some sort. The vibe of the restaurant is also chill and casual. Our waitress was very sweet especially after I spilled my first margarita, she quickly replaced it after and was so nice about my little incident. Would love to come back here!

So happy we came here to eat on a Thursday evening. This area is soooo cute, there's really cute seating outside, around the corner and perfect to explore before or after eating. We were warmly greeted at the front door by the owner Fernando and he came to check on us a few times during our time here, he seemed so genuine in making connections, love that! Our server Ashley was also really nice. Everyone enjoyed the food, 10/10; asada fries, corn, burrito, bowl, and enchiladas, amazing! Asada fries are a must for an app, you won't be disappointed. Will definitely be back again!

First time here for lunch. Very friendly staff , clean ambiance, and fast service! Will definitely return and highly recommend!

A new area has popped up in the suburbs of Atlanta. Staying at the Trilith Guesthouse we decided to try this place. Clean, fresh space, great service, prices are on par with what you'd expect from the menu. The food was glorious. Great Quesadilla (Chicken) the corn app, the Queso fundido, both terrific. Great guacamole as well. Try the churro desert, the coffee ice cream is the BOMB.

Went online in the morning to reserve a table for 4 for 6:30pm that evening. Received confirmation. We show up at 6:25pm only to be told the manager decided to seat a table of 12 so our reservation disappeared. No apology. Moral of the story. Don't trust a reservation from them. Too many other options for food to deal with that.

We had seen this place written us as a new business in Trilith and had added it to our list of places to check out. We stopped in one cold, rainy Sundy night. The best nearby parking is in the gravel lot (or adjacent street spaces) about a block away. When you enter, there is a host station. However, it does not appear to be staffed much. I had dropped off my wife and opted just to wander back to find her. There is a large bar to the left and some tables extending further into the space on the right. There is also a small dining area in the rear. They appeared to have an enclosed patio as well, though it only started filling up as we left - I assume they have space heaters there. They also have a dining balcony upstairs, though we didn't check that out. Our server was friendly and efficient, despite being quite busy. The menu is definitely not that generic Tex-Mex combo-centric variety. They have a number of different taco options, which includes a 4-taco platter. The tacos are 'mini' so this isn't an overwhelming portion of food. My wife got a large burrito which she liked. I finished my 4 mini tacos (2 steak and 2 chorizo), along with the accompanying beans. Wine was not cheap but not overpriced. This was a nice alternative to more generic Mexican places. However, you get what you pay for so expect pricing here to also be higher than your generic Mexican places.

Service was a bit below average. Food was average the flies on the patio were atrocious. I had the enchiladas, they were wayyy too cheesy for my taste.

Visited during lunch/brunch. Hostess immediately greeted our party of five and we were quickly seated upstairs. There is seating on two levels as well as a covered outdoor space. Decor is nice as well. Now on to the food. They were still offering brunch so a couple of us tried brunch options. I ordered the honey-chili chicken and waffles and it was a hit. The boneless chicken breast was cooked perfectly. I loved the thinner waffles served with it and the honey-chili sauce was just the right mix of sweet and a little spice. Our server was very personable, attentive and made sure we had all we needed.

Trilith is slowly becoming my favorite place to be! Came to CT cantina after working at a nearby coffee shop. The gentlemen's that sat me was so sweet. Pushing in my chair at the bar and everything. There salsa selection they give with chips is be far the best I have had. 4 different option. I went with an old fashion which was perfect. Not too sweet not too strong. I ordered two street tacos and ended up ordering two more. They are the perfect size and so damn tasty!!! The space is super cute. Outside patio and upstairs sitting. They might as well put my name on one of the barstools. I will be here often

Came here twice on a visit to Trilith and enjoyed both times! The barria tacos were so good... and the queso, guacamole and mock tails (mango) were also my favorites. Highly recommend! Great service too!

My boyfriend and I went about a month ago and it was great! We came on a pretty chilly day and sat outside in the covered patio that was equipped with heaters, which made us feel quite cozy. My boyfriend may have gotten too hot at one point but I was just fine lol. Our waiter was great, accommodating and very attentive. The salsa sampler was a great touch. I could tell each one was freshly made as well as the chips to accompany. My favorite was the chili one but I love anything hot and spicy. The tacos were street style and kind of small but for me they were the perfect size. As a picky eater, I like that they do not load on condiments. The street tacos came with the meat choice, onions and cilantro, but you could request additional toppings. As for the drinks, I am currently not drinking alcohol so I love to explore different mocktails (simple, lemonade and fountain drinks bore me). Their mangito fizz is so good! We have gone back since and were equally as pleased. The three stars are due to the prices. I don't mind high prices however they were in my opinion not equivalent to what o was tasting.

This Mexican restaurant offers the most authentic flavors and vibrant atmosphere in town. Servers are great!

I ordered three tacos, a bowl, two margaritas, and guacamole, but the total cost of $100 struck me as quite steep. Unfortunately, the tacos and bowl didn't leave a lasting impression, and I wouldn't make a special effort to dine here again. The addition of riced cauliflower in the bowl didn't do much to enhance the flavors, which were lacking in overall appeal and flavor. On the bright side, the margaritas were delightful, so if you visit, I'd recommend trying their cocktails. The chips and salsa were a nice touch as well. Positive note, the restaurant's ambiance and decor were absolutely stunning. Service was slow and staff didn't seem well versed in menu. I understand it's the first week, but I would think people knew the menu better, and would be practicing with management. Another big issue was timing. I ordered more drinks for the table and more food to try, but it took so long. We ended up just canceling it and leaving. I am hopeful things will improve and flavors Get better.

I haven't tried nothing new in awhile. But here I tried burrito with green salsa avcacdo rice and a filling of my choice. All of that in the burrito while the cheese outside of it covering the burrito and plate. The people there were kind and employees. It place and was like this Mexican place. With bold colors. The outside is where I ate had umbrellas incase of the high temperature or rainy day to protect your food.

The food was great, with four choices of fresh salsa. I ordered four speciality mini tacos and it was plenty. The Al Pastor was very flavorful. Highly recommend this and the setting is beautiful.

I'm officially done with this place. I ordered Enchiladas with a steak filling. They gave me one piece of steak, and everything else was chicken. I'm not coming back here again.

The area was amazing, the service was great, the food was incredible and the presentation was great! I will definitely return. The place was so nice and had fun amenities.

I have visited the Trilith location at least 6 times now. Always consistent with the excellent service and food!

Great service great food awesome drinks every time you go! And let's not forget they have rewards points

Beautiful high end establishment, with a lavish menu. The staff were attentive and the food and drinks were top notch. Everyone had a smile on their face, and they seem to enjoy working there. This place is truly the best Mexican restaurant I have ever been to. I highly recommend it!

We love this place. The multiple salsas are great and we love the thicker bubbly chips. The food is good, we've tried quite a few entrees at this point and all have been tasty. The queso tastes good and is a generous portion. Sometimes service can be a little slow, but nothing crazy, and they're usually pretty busy when we go. My only real criticism is a personal one and it's that the cocktails are way too sweet and have too much alcohol for my tolerance. It would be nice if you could have more options for those of us who are lightweights. ;) I will say that the sizes of them are very generous compared to some other restaurants.

Fernando & Team Opening days come with challenges. I applaud you all for being responsive to guests, quickly getting us seated and providing top shelf service. The food was great and service was on point. La Comida Especial. Thank you coming back with friends and family.

What a fantastic Mexican cantina. Fresh Food and cocktails were amazing! Our server Wendy was the Best !!! Highly recommend

Such a pretty restaurant with great food!!! Pricey but for the quality of the food it makes sense!!! I would def recommend this to anyone who's in the area.

Everything was great! Liz the server was wonderful! The chips and several different salsas were amazing! My steak burrito was excellent! My hubby had shrimp and carnita enchiladas and he was ready to go back the next day! No more driving to Pappasitos for us! This is our New Mexican Spot!

Very fresh quality food, great ambience and service. The street tacos are small but every one is fresh and tasty. Sign up for the rewards as we got $10 already after our first meal. We will be back again for sure. Already our fav restaurant in the area.

My husband and I stopped in to grab dinner. I will say that the service is poor and the food needs better flavor. Had to add salt to bring out the flavor in the guacamole. A few items to note for the bad review: The place was not crowded and the server Christian was not good. He brought us our app, never came back to check on us. When he did return to bring our entrees, they were cold. Had to send them back. Our glasses were empty, he never came back to ask if we needed any other drinks. He came out to clear a table and still never came back to take our drink order. I spoke to the manager and she apologized and said our food would be remade. She also said that they ran out of lime to make the drinks. That doesn't excuse not checking on us and or confirming if we needed anything else. At the end, we decided to leave, I will say that the manager did comp our drinks and app and I appreciate it. We ended up having to find another restaurant for dinner. Definitely a no for me. There are too many other places to dine in the area.

AMAZING. the food is fantastic the drinks are really great and strong definitely will have a good time there. The chicken enchiladas are by far the best ones I tried in a restaurant. Mango shots are my favorite. Our server was Jose and he was fantastic, very fast and had great customer service! Will be back again.

Food is OK. Good Mexican food. Service deserves a -1. Understaffed and servers are rude. Waited 45mins to then find out they didn't keep a list. Then very nonchalant saying they are busy. Good overpriced Mexican food will not last ling with terrible service, and give all other close by options.

I recently visited CT Cantina & Taqueria and I loved it. I went back two days in a row. The first day I ordered 3 mini tacos (steak, chicken, and veggie). All three tacos were seasoned well and came out hot. The next day I ordered 2 chicken tacos and once again I was pleased with my food. I really like that these tacos aren't dry. I also like that you get a variety of salsa with your chips, which was also good. The service was great as well. I will definitely be back soon.

When I say this is MY FAVORITE place to get tacos, a nice drink and enjoy the environment!! The customer service, the food, the ambience is definitely a 10/10 always recommending.

Excellent food. We loved it and will go back soon. Super friendly staff. The enchiladas were fabulous.

AMAZING experience. If you want to have the best marg on earth get Jose as your bartender. 10000/10 feeling it after 1 and got one to go bc THEY DO THAT!?!? So cool!! I had two mini tacos, one shrimp and one steak. 10/10 greatness. Friend had the grilled marinade chicken tostadas. She highly recommends them. I will 102092&3363% be back.

I ate here today at lunch on the bottom floor in the back tables to the left...our waitress was horrible. I asked if I could get the fundido burrito that they have at their other locations and I said I had gotten it a couple of months ago at this location. She looked at me and said "no"...and I said well then can you please go ask your manager...she came back and said we have it...then she proceeds to never get us the things we ask for "limes for our water...extra chips for the table...the couple sitting next to us asked for more chips and 12 mins later never got them and the waitress was at the front desk talking to the hostess. Listen I know it's hard to find help these days...but come on. Don't act like you are an upscale mexican restaurant and then have Applebees type waiters/waitresses. Never had this issue at any of your other locations...super disappointed.

As my restauranteur friend said, 'that Mexican restaurant menu is elevated.' Freshly fried chips and salsa are amazing We ordered snapper tacos and chicken tacos. Both next level. Truly elevated. Service was great. The waiter was very attentive and friendly. It was a little slow but worth the wait for a such great experience
