" I recently tried F&D Cantina, and while the decor was impressive, I found the food to be lacking in authenticity. The flavors were intriguing, but they felt more of a fusion than traditional Mexican fare. I tried the steak fajitas, which were decent, but I expected more. On a positive note, the service was spot on; our server was friendly and engaging. Overall, while it was a fun night out, I'm unsure if I'd return for traditional Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled across F&D Cantina while looking for a good Mexican restaurant to grab lunch. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised! The interior is beautifully decorated, reminiscent of an authentic cantina. I ordered the carne asada, which was grilled to perfection and mouthwateringly good. The service was friendly, although it took a bit longer for us to receive our order. Despite that minor hiccup, everything else was spot on. I'd definitely recommend it for lunch. " (*Curated Review*)

" F&D Cantina is such a hidden gem! Some of the best authenticity in Mexican food I've had in Orlando. I particularly loved their enchiladas—they were rich and flavorful! The Mexican street corn was the best accompaniment. My friends ordered the margaritas and said they were refreshing. The only downside was the parking; it was quite limited, so be prepared for that. However, the food and service were absolutely worth it! Highly recommend for anyone craving true Mexican cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not impressed with the food quality. I had heard so much about F&D Cantina, but my experience was mediocre. The enchiladas seemed to be missing something—it just wasn't the robust flavor that I was hoping for. However, I can't fault their service. The waiter was knowledgeable and checked in frequently. I might return to see if it was just an off day for them. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went here based on a friend's recommendation, and wow, I was impressed! They have an extensive drink menu, and the margaritas were delicious. I also had the special grilled fish tacos, which tasted super fresh. Service was attentive but not overbearing, allowing me to enjoy my meal. Definitely a place I'll visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a really pleasant experience at F&D Cantina. The menu is varied and full of interesting choices. I tried the enchiladas, and while they were good, I felt the dish could use a little more seasoning. The service was prompt, and the staff was friendly. I would return to explore more of the menu for sure. " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me tell you about my experience at F&D Cantina—first of all, the atmosphere is just so lively! It was perfect for our friend's gathering. The staff were wonderful, super attentive, and genuinely sweet. I had the chicken quesadilla, which was okay—nothing really stood out. The drinks are the highlight, though! I’ll definitely return for those! " (*Curated Review*)
