Cantina Laredo - Jacksonville

This place is adjacent (on campus) to a large semi-upscale shopping center with many large chains on the premises. We went there really wanting to find the place as a local favorite but it was anything but. Our party consisted of people who had all worked in the restaurant business at least 10 years. Everyone had did time performing every aspect of the restaurant work so we are not your normal patron. We started in the bar, and while the tequila selection was pretty extensive, the drinks were VERY weak. Not to sound like a bunch of drunks but each person had at least 4 Margaritas, each one the same as the last-short on the ice, heavy on the real lime juice and limp on the tequila. Sadly, the food was even worse. Absolutely no authenticity what so ever. Just **** food for the sheepeople to consume. Truly, if you want Mexican in this area, go to Moe 's or even Chilis...it 's that bad. Do yourself a favor and visit one of the 3 other establishments on the block . Google map it. What a bummer and waste of .

You will spend a little bit more money here but it's worth it for the quality of meat and food you get here. The atmosphere is awesome and very clean and upscale. There are always fresh avocados or fresh fruit on the table. It's located at the newer end of the St John's Town Center. They have valet parking right outside. I met my husband here for lunch one day and we split the fajitas. It was the best fajitas I have ever had. The meat was so tender and moist! Like I said, you'll pay a little more but it's definitely worth it. This end of the mall isn't as busy so it's a little bit easier to get a parking spot too.

Had lunch here and loved the placeGreat atmosphere, engaging bartender and friendly staff And, very clean.

This place is on point! The classic margarita is the perfect margarita! It has the right amount of tequila and is not overwhelmingly sweet! You really only

Date night calls for table side guacamole, am I right? My boyfriend and I decided to try Cantina Laredo and it did not disappoint.
