A Blending of Cultures

Nothing is better than taking the best of two culinary cultures and making a new, unique dining experience. That’s what we do here is La Cantina! Our delicious authentic Mexican food is what gets people coming back time and again, but we also know how everyone loves American classics. To meet this desire, we have created a selection of burgers, each with their own Mexican-themed twist, and even a delectable pork loin sandwich. We have lunch special so you can be and out, and back to work with a delicious, freshly made authentic Mexican food to carry you through the day. It doesn’t take a trip to Acapulco to enjoy the flavors of the Mexican seaside, just try one of our seafood dishes that feature shrimp and tilapia or mahi-mahi.

Stop into one of our two convenient locations, in Cedar Rapids and in Marion and try one of our indulgent Mexican dishes or Mexican twists on the American classic burger.
