What People Are Saying About Nuevo Laredo Cantina

The Scene – This worth-a-trip cantina is tucked away in the never-never land beyond the mattress outlets of Chattahoochee Avenue. Inside are low ceilings, a small bar, funky religious icons, would-be celebrity photos and neon beer signs. Service is fast and efficient, but be prepared to wait for a table. – – The Food – In rejuvenated form, this is the food you'd find in any of the one million "Mexican" restaurants crowding the roadside from here to old El Paso. From top to bottom, though, ingredients here are fresher, flavors are bolder, and the use of chilies a bit…

Lost our business
by Kevin27 at Citysearch
A group of us (6) went out to lunch from work as we do on a regular basis. Typically we all pay with Credit Card. Nuevo will not allow groups to pay with credit card as they say it takes to much time. In addition, they automatically put a 20% tip on your bill, which is typically what I give for great service. In my opinion, the service is not great and the manager is not customer focused. In addition, there are rules posted all over the place once you walk in, "no cell phones", "no seperate checks"... When I go out eat that last thing I want is rules... Food is very good, but overall experience is average at best.
- Pros: Food is outstanding
- Cons: Rules, rules, rules

incredible fish tacos
by brad15 at Citysearch
I am not a big Mexican fan but this place has the best salmon tacos I have ever had. They are always delicious and always fresh. They also have great salsa and queso. I have been there several times and have always gotten the fish tacos. Even with the crowds, I have always had good service and there are some hot waitresses.
- Pros: great food and good service
- Cons: always too busy

R**CH MOTEL!!!!!!
by MLT at Citysearch
My friend and I went to this Cantina with high hopes on Saturday afternoon June 30,2009. We love mexican food and had heard about Nueco Laredo through people and websites. We arrived to this small hole in the wall and ate in the lower area. As my friend was finishing her meal behold the biggest R**CH ever. The waiter quickly grabbed the r**ch but our experience was ruined. We talked with the manager and she told us that they have been having a lot of problems and that she would comp our drinks but we ended up paying for the food.....that will be my first and last time there.
- Pros: NON AFTER THE R**CH
- Cons: R**CH
