" I have been here several times, and I always leave satisfied! The cheese enchiladas are my go-to, and they make a mean pineapple margarita! Each visit, the staff is friendly and attentive. I love the cozy atmosphere, perfect for families and friends alike. Highly recommend it if you haven’t stopped in yet! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't rave about this place enough. The shrimp tacos were perfect and so flavorful! The staff took their time with us and made excellent recommendations.

" Carter's Cantina is a little gem! I was pleasantly surprised by the range of authentic Mexican dishes they offer. The tacos al pastor were simply heavenly, and the hospitality was top-notch. It felt like a family-owned establishment, where everyone knows your name. I can't speak highly enough about the service! The prices are very fair considering the large portions. I can see myself becoming a regular here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm generally a fan of Mexican food, and I've given Carter's a few chances. However, my latest visit was rather disappointing. The tacos I ordered were disappointingly bland, and the service felt rushed. I did appreciate the friendly staff, but the food really left me wanting more. I might try again in the future since it's so close to home. " (*Curated Review*)

" I hosted a small gathering with catering from Carter's Cantina and it was phenomenal. Everyone loved the taco bar, and it was enough to feed everyone with leftovers. The food was fresh and flavorful, and the setup was professional. Highly recommend if you're looking for catering options! " (*Curated Review*)
