" It was my first time dining at Cantón Regio, and I simply can't wait to return. Everything we ordered was delightful, but the star of the show was definitely the mole dish my friend got! The flavor profile was rich and complex, a true representation of authentic Mexican cuisine. The service was friendly, but a bit rushed, especially as it got busier in the evening. I also enjoyed their horchata which complemented my meal perfectly. Go with a big group because their tacos are meant for sharing! " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot rave enough about Cantón Regio. The quality of the food is impeccable. I tried their shrimp tacos after reading online about how good they were, and they did not let me down! Each taco was loaded with fresh shrimp and spices that just sang on the palate. The prices are very reasonable for the experience. I did find the atmosphere a bit on the noisy side, but that just created a more vibrant environment. Definitely a place to visit if you're serious about good Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I go to Cantón Regio, I find myself discovering something new to love. Last week I had the enchiladas and they were stuffed with meat and cheese, and topped with the right amount of sauce. Their service is fast and the waiters are attentive. I brought my own drinks since it's BYOB, which I think adds to the fun. Just remember: it's cash only! Bring cash. But please, check this place out for a memorable meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited Cantón Regio after hearing raving reviews, and I can testify it deserves all the praise! The enchiladas were out of this world, smothered in typical sauce that tasted so fresh. The kids enjoyed the shrimp tacos. Only downside was the wait time was a bit longer than we’d hope, but the end result was worth it. A cash-only policy isn't ideal but given the quality of food, I’ll take it any day. We’ll surely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful dining experience at Cantón Regio! The arrachera was sooo good! The textures of the meat and the seasoning were spot on. I also enjoyed their homemade tortillas, which paired perfectly with the tacos. The restaurant was bustling with customers, which I appreciated as it reflected the popularity of the place. The service was good, but with how busy it was, it took a bit of time to get our drinks. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem of a restaurant! The tacos sabinas are spectacular and worth a visit. I love the homey atmosphere, and the service was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. However, I would recommend only coming during less busy hours, as the noise can get overwhelming. A huge plus is that it’s BYOB! If you love classic Mexican food done right, this is the place to be. " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here based on a friend's recommendation and wow, I'm glad I did. The atmosphere is vibrant and full of friendly faces. I ordered the tacos sabinas, and they were the best tacos I've ever had! The tortillas were sumptuous and the steak was cooked to perfection. I appreciated how fresh everything tasted. The only drawback was that it was cash only, which surprised me. But that's a small price to pay for such delicious food! I already can't wait to return. " (*Curated Review*)
