" Our recent visit was enjoyable overall, though it was quite busy, so our food took a bit longer than expected to arrive. Once it got to the table, the tacos were flavorful. I believe the service typically matches the environment, although there could be a bit more staffing during peak times. " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a hidden gem! The ambiance is vibrant and filled with authentic Mexican decor. I ordered the chicken mole and it was like a flavor explosion in my mouth. The chips and salsa were also really fresh! We had a great time here, and the staff was super friendly. Our server even shared interesting stories about the restaurant's history. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic lunch we had! The chips and salsa started off great, and the tortilla soup tasted rich and flavorful. I would return just for this! The ambiance is cozy, and our server really made us feel welcomed. By the end of the meal, we left satisfied and happy. Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an incredible dinner at Cantina Norte last night! The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, perfect for a casual get-together with friends. We tried their famous enchiladas and they did not disappoint. The layers of flavor were just phenomenal! A must-visit if you’re in North Vancouver. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Cantina Norte for dinner and had high expectations, but the barbacoa was quite underwhelming. On a positive note, the staff was friendly. I just wish I could have experienced more authentic flavors that I know and love. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Cantina Norte was mixed. While I loved the guacamole and chips, the chicken enchiladas were not very remarkable. The decor was beautiful, reminding me of a festive atmosphere. Overall, if you're looking for an enjoyable evening, this place is worth a visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cantina Norte is among the best Mexican restaurants I've visited! Their margaritas are made with fresh ingredients and packed with flavor. I also highly recommend the duck mole – it's the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The atmosphere here is cozy with a lively vibe, and the staff really makes you feel at home. Great place for a meal with family or friends! " (*Curated Review*)
