Tacos Cantú Dallas
Tucked away at 2507 S Lancaster Rd in Dallas, Tacos Cantú Dallas delivers a unique fusion that defies first impressions.

What Guests Say
Guestbook
“ The perfect bar. Music on point. Pours heavy. Atmosphere appropriately dark. Best Patty Melt I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lot of them all over. Might go back to Portland just to hit this joint. Proper. ”
“ Love this place! We literally go weekly. I have YET to taste something I DON'T like from here! Everything is delicious down to the chips! The aguas frescas are so good too! They always have a great service and the atmosphere is on point! ”
“ Incredible atmosphere and service, unlike any bar I’ve been to. Very lively bar, absolutely packed on a Saturday night. Service was above and beyond; my friend had a terrible interaction with another patron and the bartenders went out of their way to ensure that we both were safe, and we could still enjoy our time there, and we sure did! They made a world of difference in a weird situation, and it was so deeply appreciated. 10/10 ”
“ The food was really good!!! Their prices are much higher than we expected to pay. The service was prompt and correct when I received my food. ”
“ It’s a dirty little dive bar. I appreciate the generous pour. We stayed for one drink and that was enough. I would visit again, but it’s not a place that I want to hang out at all night. That is just my personal preference. But it is a great low key place for affordable drinks and decent atmosphere. ”
