Cantina Laredo Heats Up Summer with a Fresh New Menu

It’s mid-summer and it’s hot outside, but it is even hotter indoors at Cantina Laredo where they serve up spicy and delicious bites to tantalize your taste buds.

Cantina Laredo, the contemporary Mexican hotspot located at The Village at Gulfstream, recently upgraded their menu with delightful fares that can be enjoyed as lunch and dinner.

At a recent media tasting, we had the opportunity to sample the new menu with creative culinary offerings at affordable and wallet-friendly prices.

Forget the heat outside — Cantina Laredo’s specialty cocktails are flavorful and refreshingly spicy. Muy caliente. In addition to their varied and exotic drink menus, this eatery offers an authentic Mexican dining experience in their warm, inviting, and sophisticated space. Meals often start with freshly made guacamole tableside.

Pairing interesting and new flavors, the menu boasts classical favorites with creative twists from the appetizers to entrees. The new menu includes an appetizer, Quesadillas Al Cangrejo — lump crab with goat cheese and mango ginger salsa ($13.79) — and a main course, Tacos De Picadillo, seasoned ground beef with sautéed onions and jalapeños with queso fresco ($9.29 at lunch and $12.29 for the dinner portion). Several new specials have been added to the menu as well, including Gorditas, corn meal pitas with seasoned ground beef and nopalitos ($8.99 at lunch and $11.99 at dinner); Torta De Pollo, a griddle-baked sandwich with grilled chicken, mango-avocado slaw, and chipotle aioli ($10.99 at lunch and dinner); and Torta De Carnitas, a griddle-baked sandwich with slow-roasted pork, fried egg, apricot spread, and goat cheese ($13.99 at lunch and dinner).

So if you are craving Mexican food today or any day, indulge in Cantina Laredo’s summer offerings that will surely satisfy.
