Reviews for Buenavista Mexican Cantina | Hampton Cove in Owens Cross Roads, AL

I?ve been to this location many times & each time my experience is great! The food is so good! This is coming from someone born... in CA, lived in TX & now I?m here, the food is good. There was 3 of us, 2 drinks, a margarona, street tacos with beans, tacos, &a California burrito. All that came to $75. For me that was a little high this time, but it was a special occasion. Staff &service was very professional & friendly. Read more

We had a great visit. Fun but friendly and chill atmosphere. Solid food offerings with some unique twists like mexican lasagna... and very amenable to vegetarian tweaks. Staff was super friendly and the decor was unique and interesting. Thanks for a greatvisit! Read more

Friendly and very helpful staff. When I mentioned we would wait outside for our takeout to be ready due to my immune system and... the possibility of covid exposure, they offered to bring our order outside to us so I didn't have to walk into the buildingagain. We greatly appreciated the thoughtful gesture, and the food was great. Read more

I love the food at this place. Unfortunately, I can no longer spend my money here. I work for a restaurant that delivers. I... deliver food to this location on a pretty regular basis, and they don't tip, and if they do, it's a dollar..yep. 1 singledollar. I do not support businesses who do not support their fellow food workers. My family and I and all of my co workers willpick a different Mexican place to spend our money. If you can't afford to tip, don't order!!!! Read more

Last two visits, food mediocre at best, some items lukewarm. Service is almost nonexistent. Takes forever to get waited on, then... another looong wait for the food to arrive. Frozen margaritas no longer frozen when they arrive. Very disappointed in our latestvisits. This place was great when we first moved here three years ago. Not so much any more. Read more

The waitress was nice and the sweet tea and queso were good. The food was extremely bland in my opinion. It's also really pretty... inside but I don't think I'll eat here again. The food looked waaaayyy better than it tasted. Read more

Excellent service at lunch with ample portions of chicken enchilada and a highly recommended plate of David's carnitas (pork... tortillas). Convenient parking and charming interior decorations abound. Seperate seating area with rollup doors will beavailable in warm weather. Who can resist a giant metal mariachi band? Read more

Wow! This is a dining experience! The decor is nothing short of amazing, with particular attention given to the lighting.... Metallic stars, geodesic metallic spheres, wicker spheres, and torch-lamps on the backs of the booths. Okay, now for the food.The menu is full of tasty options, fajitas, enchiladas, nachos & quesadillas. But a closet examination reveals specialtieshidden amongst the standards. The "Burrito California" caught my attention, as well as the "Carne Asada." When the waiter cameto take our order, I asked him his preference between the two. He confidently said for me to go with the Burrito California! Itook his advice and ordered one, with both steak and chicken. The steak was delicious, but the chicken was especially delicious!So much so, that my next visit in going to order the Burrito California again with only chicken. The prices were reasonable,considering the increased costs of meats and veggies. Read more
