We were seated quickly which was great for our group. Drinks took a long time to come from the bar. We had lots of chips and salsa while we waited. It took a long time for our food to come out. The food was alright, not the best I’ve had but also not the worst. When all was said and done we were there for 2 hours for a party of 7. My husband summed it up, Mexican is usually quick and cheap and this was neither. It was $70 for 2 adult meals, 1 kids meal, and 4 house margaritas.

Enjoyable Friday night with friends. First visit to Cantina 1511. Best Mexican I’ve had in Mooresville since moving here last summer. Good margs, a little sweet, could’ve used another squeeze of lime juice. I had the chimichanga with ground beef. Huge portion, filling was nicely seasoned and not dried out like sometimes happens with chimis. My husband had beef fajitas and really enjoyed them. Good amount of meat and nice mix of grilled veggies too. Because of the avocado issues right now, amount of guac with entrees was skimpy, but I’m willing to overlook as it’s not restaurant’s fault. Prices were a little steep for Mexican, probably due to supply chain and staffing issues. Will see how that goes once things settle down. Overall a nice night out with friends. FYI, We went around 6 pm and wasn’t crowded, by the time we left around 7:30 there were quite a few people waiting to be seated.

Loved the atmosphere but food was average and service was poor. We have been here for the two previous restaurants in the same building. We were excited to try a new Mexican restaurant with the online menu showing lots of choices for food and drinks. We were seated immediately. We asked what we wanted for a drink and were only given the option of a margarita or sangria. We were confused due to the fact that we could see the fully stocked bar. We ordered one of each and were disappointed to receive a premixed margarita and boxed sangria at a higher price. We waited 20 minutes before our food order was placed. Once receiving the food, our waitress asked if we then wanted corn or flour tortillas with it. We thought it was odd that it didn't come out all together but simply said corn would be fine. Twenty minutes later, we finally decided to flag someone down to ask for our corn tortillas so we could eat our meal. The food was like any other Americanized Mexican restaurant. We were very disappointed to pay more for the same food we have gotten elsewhere and to also receive poor service.

Server was in way over his head. No attention to details such as empty glasses to refill, dealing with patrons in order as they were seated, not making excuses of lack of coverage. Had to go to another server repeatedly. On the other hand, the food is some of the best we’ve had at any restaurant. Schedule your prime-time crew much better.

The food used to be great, but honestly both of us were not impressed with our dinner. We ordered chips and queso to start. This isn’t a huge thing, but not a great start when the chips that were brought out were basically a bunch of crumbs and the waitress never asked if she could get us more. I ordered a Moscow Mule, which I get frequently and I don’t think I drank more than half of it. I ordered the tortilla soup, which has been a favorite for more than 10 years. It always comes with a couple of slices of avocado, this one did not. The soup was warm, but not hot and wasn’t as good as it’s always been. It was fairly salty. For dinner I ordered the carne asada quesadilla and it almost tasted like the meat was bad. I took a few bites and that was it. The Hubs got an enchilada, which is has always loved in the past, but said it had very little flavor. We probably will not return.

I think they are suffering from the same staff shortages that a lot of restaurants are. Also I think most of the servers were working outside tables which seemed to be in demand while we were eating inside. The server helping us was very nice but I think she had more tables than normal. Food was good and there was a lot of it. The quacamole that was made tableside was not as good as I had hoped. Not horrible or anything like that but it was missing something. We’ll be back at some future date.

We waited for our table we reserved for about 10-15 min after we arrived. Once we were seated outside as requested, our server was very sweet however they were very slow getting to us after we finished eating. When we went to pay someone had accidentally already closed out. There was some back and forth with the manager and he decided since someone rang us up we didn’t need to pay. We asked how much the bill was to at least tip he said there was already a tip left. We left a tip for our waitress anyway but it was a very strange experience overall.

Both the dinner and the margaritas were average at best. It doesn't match up well with Don Pedro and certainly not with many of the smaller restaurants in the area like La Unica and others. Not so much that there was something wrong with it, just that so many others get it better and get it right.

First time at the new Cantina 1511 in Mooresville. Have been at the other locations in Charlotte many times over the year. The service was great as was the food. Love the jalapeño margaritas, the make at the table guac and the burritos and quesadillas. Both of us had chicken dishes and the chicken was tasty. Cantina 1511’s marinades are great. Will definitely be visiting again!

Food was good. Thought the table guacamole was expensive at $10.00. Service was awful. We never saw our waitress after we ordered our food (was delivered by someone else) until she brought our bill. NO ONE asked us if we wanted a refill on drinks or more chips, which we did on both accounts.

Cantina 1511 is just....ok. We were expecting flavorful food and got just “ok”, somewhat bland and mediocre. The pork dish tasted like it was pre-made and warmed up to the point of tasting burnt. The tortilla chips had no flavor. The frozen margarita was decent. Kids chicken tenders and fries seemed to be a small portion.

When I arrived for my 9:00 p.m. reservation at 8:55 the restaurant proceeded to explain that they close at 9:00 and would not be sitting us. There must be confusion between the restaurant and the information on the app. The restaurant made zero effort in trying to do something quick or asking if we wanted to take away. They wont ever see me again...

For a restaurant being filled to maybe 50% capacity the service was awful. I asked 3 different people who came to our table, a total of 4 times for a wedge of lemon for my water and it took nearly 20 minutes to get that. One of the severs who first came to get our drink order basically ignored my first two requests for a lemon and never came back. Our waitress the ignored my 3rd request so I asked the manager who brought it right away. Embarrassing that this is the type of service provided in a half empty restaurant. Chips and salsa arrived only after we asked twice for them which I thought was standard when you sit down. The food was lukewarm and probably had been sitting under a heat lamp for a bit since it took 30 minutes to get our food and there were no refills provided. At the end of our meal I just wanted to get out of the place but couldn’t because I didn’t have a bill and had to wait longer for that to come. Even the server remarked that she felt like she was behind in her service. That was an understatement. Very very disappointed, in a price to service and food scale it was below poor. Far too much money for the service and lukewarm food provided. Gonna be a while before we go back here. The competition for dollars especially in this time of the pandemic is huge so I’d rather give my money to people who really want it and are working for it.
