I love this Local Cantina so much! Our server Maddie was so nice and checked in on us often! Our orders came out super fast and the food is always delicious! This is definitely my favorite Mexican place in New Albany!

This has gone from a place I wasn’t sure what to order to a new favorite of ours. The Shrimp Tempura tacos are fantastic. Other good items include the carne asada and the Cali chicken taco. Some items on the menu can be surprisingly spicy, so be careful, and ask your server for recommendations (Sepher was awesome), but it’s a really solid and tasty place once you find the right dish for you.

The customer service was PHENOMENAL! I never had to wait for anything, my server Sep was on top of everything. We ordered a couple drinks, got them right away, and he came back just soon after to get our food order. The experience was truly unlike most busy restaurants I’ve been to, and the amount of customers did not distract them from making sure we had everything. The GM Maverick came to check in on us, and even got us another beer when we were low, and had beat Sep to it just by moments. It was a lovely experience, and I will definitely be bringing my friends here every Friday for after work for our after work drinks and food! I highly recommend this place.

I’ve been dining in Columbus, OH for several years. Service and ambience is desires, as well as excellent food. Local Cantina has met all my needs in all three categories. I enjoy friendliness from the staff. Attitude is a major factor in bringing me back. My most recent experience I had exceptional service from Moon. Not only was she friendly, she also moved in a timely manner and made my family feel like they were at home. I will definitely be returning g to this wonderful establishment!

If you want a quick bite and fun atmosphere this is the place to go! My server Moon was excellent, very attentive and polite! I had ordered the crunch wheezy and Mac attack, both came out looking delicious and tasted even better! Great taco spot

We came in for Taco Tuesday tonight and had a wonderful time. Ken was our server and she was FABULOUS! I would come back just to have more conversations with her. Food was very good tonight as well. Only complaint is the prices of tacos on Tuesdays keep going up, I miss the days when every taco on the menu was $2.

I normally really enjoy my visits to Local Cantina. I have been to 3 or 4 of the different locations and l am always very pleased with the quality of food and level of service, but this time was a very different experience. I was still very happy with the taste and wait time of my food, but the service was very disappointing. During this visit, we sat at the bar. The entire time we were there, we listened to the bartender, Stacey, complain about one thing after another. She even snapped at the manager in front of us for opening the garage doors because she “didn’t want to bartend with the bees” and said that “he should be the one that has to do it”. When it came time to take our order she was very short with us and didn’t even look in our direction. She brought us our bill before we had the chance to order a drink and seemed very upset when we wanted to do so. I ordered one of their signature cocktails and she almost gave me an eye roll as though she didn’t want to make it. I have had this drink many times, there and at some of the other locations, and really enjoyed it, but this one tasted very different and unenjoyable. I will have to say, the server that ran our food was very nice, and the manager even came over to check in on us which was much appreciated. If I go back to this location, I will definitely be avoiding the bar if Stacey is bartending…

Me and my son came in on Sunday and moon was our server she gave us wonderful service and made sure we were taken care of. She recommended the steak fajitas skillet with street corn. Everything was wonderful will be coming back soon.

The food was delicious!! I recommend taco tuesday, it’s a great deal! The only thing better than the food and prices is the service. The manager was walking around and visable at all times, looking approachable and ensuring everyone is happy. Seph was our server and he was knowledgeable, attentive, and all with personality! Working in the industry I see plenty of people who are good at their jobs but slightly robotic. Ask to be sat with Seph for a fun time! I’ll be back:)
