Reviews for Canteen in Madison, WI
Great tasting tacos. My favorite go-to is always the shrimp diablo. Always get flour tortillas - better than the corn that is... doubled. Refreshing margaritas. Wonderful selection and variations. Staff is so friendly ALWAYS and the patio seating is sopleasant as it's not by a busy area. Plus the inside has beautiful walls and really huge windows. Read more
This was a fantastic find for a breakfast spot. My burrito bowl was more than enough to start the day, the service was great,... and the house made chips were so unique! Would definitely return. Read more
What I noticed most about this place is the colors; colorful walls, interior, and food. Everything tasted fresh and healthy.... Didn’t think the two fish tacos would fill me up but that paired with the chips and guacamole left me satiated. Cool place! Read more
The half off tacos deal here is BOMB. I’ve been here twice now and the only minor issue that I’ve experienced is that wait... time is long, but it makes sense since they’re always busy during happy hour. I really recommend the mexican street corn,carne asada/pork belly/fish tacos, and churros ?? Read more
A must in Madison! Decor and atmosphere are bright and cheerful. Stopped in for weekend brunch and it was incredible. Spicy marg... is to die for. Seriously, best margarita in town. The Chilaquiles could feed 2 people for sure and the churros are soft anddelicious. Read more
Wow! Yummy tacos! Great street corn (in bowl, not on cob, but is like everyone else now..., but still good...). We Loved the... fried cauliflower tacos!!! Carnitas were our second favorite. Also tried the chicken El pastor which was good too. We likedflour tortillas better than corn. Note..... Two tacos will Not be enough for most people!!! Plan on ordering plenty for thetable so that each person has at least three unless they are seriously restricting calories. Great vibe! Lively after theBadger game but not too loud. Very enjoyable!!! Prices were also Extremely reasonable during happy hour! Read more
The best ever Mexican so far in Madison. Menu was simple not overwhelming with dishes and just enough to choose from. As usual... Nachos with Guacamole is freshly prepared, and the dish tasted great. It had right mount of onions, black beans and jalapenos.Street corn had more butter in it, initially my it was delicious but in last 3 bites the butter was overpowering. Tacos -Yummy. Baja burrito was huge and for me it was more on sour side when I ate all chicken and have to eat the cabbages. It wasjuicy. The chicken was juicy and I got it grilled. Overall it was a good dish. My 2nd margarita was disappointing as it waswatery. I understand it was Friday night but could have finished with good drink. I would recommend this place and I willreturn for sure. Read more
Food was excellent, the ambiance of the restaurant is peak Madison. Our server was nice but clearly overwhelmed. The restaurant... had few open tables and she was the only server running around helping everyone. Again, she was great, but understandably theservice was slow just due to not enough people to take care of all of the patrons. I’ll definitely be returning. Thechilaquiles are amazing, add chicken to them! Read more
