Reviews Summary
Cabos Cantina Taco & Tequila Bar offers a vibrant atmosphere and flavorful modern Mexican fare, with many praising their margaritas and fresh guacamole. However, some diners have experienced inconsistent service, with complaints about slow wait times and watery drinks. While generally well-regarded for its food, occasional feedback points to a desire for past happy hour specials and concerns about value.
"If you're looking for a spot in Downtown Fort Myers with great service and even better food, Cabo Cantina is where you need to be. From the moment I sat down, my server Alex made sure I was taken care of. I had a few questions about the menu, and she gave me some solid recommendations. Let’s just say—I’m glad I listened.
I went with the Diablo Tacos, and listen… if you can’t handle spice, proceed with caution! At first bite, I was like, "Oh, this is serious!" But after removing the jalapeños, I ate those tacos like my life depended on it. The sauce? S A U C I N G. The flavors? On full blast. Every bite was packed with bold, smoky heat and a richness that kept me going back for more.
Cabo Cantina really knows how to bring the flavor, and for that, they get a 10/10 on the Flavor Meter. Whether you're a spice lover or just looking for some good Mexican-inspired eats, this spot won’t disappoint. Would I go back? Absolutely. Just maybe with a glass of milk next time."

"Such a great spot. Got seated quickly, our server was super cool and recommended a very tasty tequila flight! Generous portions of everything- we started with the seafood ceviche and street tacos, and got burrito bowls with chicken and veggies. Everything was delicious! Awesome experience. Highly recommend."
Amanda Woiner
"I visited this restaurant, Cabos Cantina Taco & Tequila Bar, and my impressions were extremely negative. The waiter apparently decided that she had some personal record for the speed of clearing tables. When I was still eating a salad, he suddenly took half the plate right from under my hand along with the fork! It was so unexpected and unpleasant that I didn’t even find the words right away. Such behavior by the staff is simply unacceptable. I came to eat, not to fight for my food. I will not come back here again and I will not recommend it to anyone 😡"
