For those of you, and us, who miss Luna Del Mar, I've got great news. Cantina Laredo opened in the last couple of days at Grand Boulevard, and the food is grayt! As are the margaritas. The only bad news is that somehow the word is already out and tonight when we tried to make reservations the choices were 5:30 or 8:30.
We went with some other folks at 5:30 and the place was already hoppin'. By the time we left it was packed, and everyone seemed to be having a wonderful time.
We will be going back many, many times.

Not to rain on sowal's parade, but I am hoping this one is better than the ones here in Dallas. Of course, for a Mex restaurant to take reservations is a bonus! I am also sure they do not have JUMBO's. ;-)

Reservations. Mexican restaurant.
Do these belong in the same sentence? :lol:
On the other hand, the Frog household is one that still misses Luna del Mar and will now drive regularly to either Los Antojitos or La Rumba (sorry, we're not Cocos fans) for our Mexican fix. Nice to hear there's another option.

I had hit or miss experiences at Luna del Mar. Is this new restaurant operated by the same people, or did you make the comparison because it is Tex Mex?
Grand Blvd is really growing and will make Mack Bayou even more attractive to many home buyers.

SJ- That's right, comparison made because both are upscale Tex Mex. They're not operated by the same people.

Publix at Sandestin is part of it. Look at all of the stores to the immediate west of Publix, and that is a portion of Grande Blvd., which is still growing.

Los Antojitos is in PCB - don't remember exactly where - sorry and LaRumba is part of a chain that is on 98 between the outlet mall and Bass Pro Shop - on the south side where the Destin Commissary use to be and also Corkys BBQ.
Has anyone heard whether or not PF Changs is still going to be part of Grand Blvd? They used to mention it as one of the restaurants, but I haven't heard lately. I just went to a PF Changs in Houston a few days ago and loved the food and the prices, so I'm hoping that one is really going in here.

Los Antojitos is in Panama City, not PCB. Cross the bridge on 98, go straight at the light where would turn left to go to 23rd (i.e. stay on 98), and it will be on your right maybe 1/4 to 1/2 mile past the light.

The place to watch for new national businesses coming into the area is monster.com, and I seem to remember seeing that PF Chang's was indeed looking to hire management in the Florida, Pensacola/Panama City (location: Destin) job market a few weeks back.

Heard more great compliments on Canitna Laredo today. It seems that they were packed last night, as I'm sure they will be for a long time if they keep the food tasty and the service good.
Can someone provide a phone number for Cantina Laredo?. Will add to my list for vacation week. Also, thanks to all that responded to my request for info on SRB. John:clap:

What reservations at Cantina Laredo? I called and they told me that they don't take reservations. My neighbors called and were told the same thing. So good luck making reservations. Also beware of the $35 margarita. I know someone who ordered one thinking that it was a big pitcher for the table and it was just one drink.

I don't understand about the reservation thing-maybe they changed their procedures. As far as the Margaritas go, ours were big and frozen and I believe $8.00, although I didn't pay so I'm not 100% sure.
We had 4 adults, 3 children, dinner for all, and 5 Margaritas. The bill was about $110.00. So I know the drinks weren't $35.00. Sounds like someone made a big ordering boo-boo.

No one should ever mix good tequila with margarita mix. That just ain't right. Margarita mix is used to cover up the taste of cheap tequila and does a good job of it. ;-)

Were dargaritas in the Party Ball on NYE? They were good! I can't believe I've never had one at Tarpon Club -- I'll have to try one. Big D says thanks for the compliments on his.:D

Exactly. Once we had a margarita at Shades with the house tequila. It was so good that we decided to try one with Patrone's. We couldn't really tell the difference.
Just as in college we used to try to have one beer at every bar on Magazine Street from Audubon to Canal (in one night -- never accomplished it), we've joked that our next quest should be to try a shot of every tequila at Taqueria Del Sol in Atlanta (not in one night :floor: ). They must have about 100.

Speaking of P. F. Chang's and Mexican food, I'm not big on chain restaurants (Houston's being the exception), but I think Pappasito's is awesome. Of course, in one meal you'll get enough calories for a week and fat grams for a month. Love the family-style Plato Toro with ribs, brochette-style shrimp, beef and chicken fajitas, frijoles a la charra, rice, guacamole, pico de gallo, and, of course, chips and salsa. Yum!

We tried out Cantina Laredo tonight and we liked it! The food was good, the decor was nice, the service wasn't bad, but the waiter was very busy. The place was packed. There was about a 45 minute wait. Try the freshly made guacamole that they make at your table. Very good.

We went for lunch yesterday with kids in tow and it was excellent all around -service, food, etc...we had no wait (we were there around 2pm) but I can imagine how packed this place will get for dinner - it is not that big.
We tried fajitas and quesadilla and enchilada and it was all delicious - am thrilled this place opened!

Official story is that Luna del Mar's parent company in Texas went under.That was a news story, not a rumor. I recall the story saying that they paid all of the bills, except the rent, and wondered why they were evicted as tenants. I guess the parent company "going under" could cause one not to pay rent.
Anywho, it sounds like from all of the rave reviews of Cantina Laredo, that they will not have a problem paying rent for a while.

We ate here tonight, and it was fantastic. The service staff was very attentive, which was a surprise for how busy they were, but they managed not to be pushy. The guacamole prepared tableside was delicious. The entrees were also excellent, with good portion sizes. Enough to fill you up, with a little bit left over for lunch tomorrow. Our food reached the table exceptionally fast. We also managed to get a table right when we walked in... quite a feat as it was almost 7pm.
This is definitely worth checking out. I will most certainly go back.

Immigration misstep would be an understatement. WCSO pulled up in the parking lot and knocked on the door (can't remember why); the staff - who lived in the restaurant - bailed out the windows and began running.
And if I remember correctly from 4+ years back, the owner said she'd go back to Dallas and come back with a new illegal crew.

Luna Del Noche closed for a variety of reasons, including because their lease was suddenly canceled, the manager/owner was overextended running restaurants in far apart locations, and lack of experience with the ebb and flow of business in a tourist area.
Hispanic staff members were quite annoyed about the rumors that it closed because they were all "illegals" who were deported in an immigration raid. There was an incident (which happened months before it closed) where the police were called because of a fight, but if you think local businesses get shut down for hiring illegals you haven't been to a construction site lately.

This is true! We went on a Thursday and when the bartender mentioned that it was ladies' night, it was the icing on the cake.

From what I remember the hispanic workers were legal to work in Texas but not Florida. And they did close the restauarant for not paying rent..heard that from the horse's mouth.

We were tired this evening, so rather than cook, decided to do the takee-outee at Cantina Laredo on the positive vibes from this board. I drove for pick-up at 7pm and what proved to be a good omen found the only parking spot directly in front of the entrance. The place was full and the bar was rockin'. People seemed to be having a very good time. We ordered beef fajitas and something called the Durango - chile relleno, and chicken and spinach enchiladas. We also order their "top shelf" guacamole. I brought it all home in two huge bags - portions are quite large and enuf for leftovers. The fajitas were good and I particularly liked the tortillas - not heavy or doughy. The guacamole was very good and a bit on the spicey side; chips were fresh and crisp. The only downside was the refried beans which seemed like they came from a can. Prices were most reasonable, perhaps even a bargain given their location (It will be interesting to see if Moe's survives). This is great for me, because now I can suck down a few margaritas and drive home without getting on 98:biggrin:
They have a brunch on Sundays with gratis Bloddy Marys, tequila flights, and other interesting temptations. A keeper.

To each his or her own. That is what makes America great! I have to say that my review of Cantina Laredo was also great -- atmosphere, friendliness of staff, knowledge of staff, prices, menu choices, and food quality. I must not get out much because I've never eaten at a Mexican chain restaurant anything like Cantina Laredo. I think the closest place in comparison would be LaPaz, and the two are very different. I've eaten at CoCo's many times, and while CoCo's prices are much lower, IMO, so is the quality of the food and drinks. However, I will say that CoCo's has a great staff and the owners are really nice too.

If you're looking for hard core Mexican, I've heard good feedback on that place on 331 in Freeport, and Destin Taquerita, and there are also a couple other places in FWB that have sprung up to follow the immigrant construction workers. (There's a place in Mary Esther advertising beef tongue tacos and goat tacos for one)
We gave Cantina Laredo a try a couple weeks back, and we enjoyed it. They actually made me like my side of roast vegetables, the salsa was good, and almost everything was well-prepared for what it was. My complaint was that the chicken, though still edible had crossed the line to a little bit overcooked. Overall it was good, but for us, La Paz is more in line with our tastes and preferred price point.

I've enjoyed the food at Cantina Laredo,though the service has always been rough but friendly. I do wish they would serve me the Botanas Platter the same way each time. A dozen visits and a dozen differences. No beef bite on the kabob, no cheese in the poppers, no poppers...etc.. As for Coco's....ho-hum... overpriced and boring..service was no great shakes either, rarely have I been so effectively ignored by a waitstaff. Can anyone suggest a restaurant anywhere in the panhandle where nachos are made correctly by putting the cheese dip on the nacho chips and then baking in the oven? I've tried a score of Mexican restaurants from PC to Shalimar and all use bland grated cheese that's barely melted. Carnitas tacos at El Chaparal (sp) in Fort Walton on Beal. Taco's at Destin Taqueria and Valentino's? or whatever it is called ..the block place..at 331 are so-so. I do love the hand made tortillas at 331 though. Don Pedro's steak tacos are the tastiest in the area imho...served as they say there "mexican style".

my first impression of a mexican restaurant is always chips, salsa and cheesedip. at the cantina - all of these failed, IMO. the chips were cold right out of a bag, and the cheese dip was that orange stuff you get out of the jar at publix - warmed. the salsa was okay, but not much flavor. they did serve a warm salsa that was tasty however.
the menu had some very nice looking entrees. I did enjoy the cheese chile relleno, the beans were good. the rice was not.

I don't love the place, but I know many friends who do.I had all three, and while you are right about the cheese dip looking rather Velveeta-E, it tasted great. I was shocked when I saw the tiny basket for the chips, but they refilled our basket about every 4 minutes. I loved the chips and found the salsa quite good. I think it was a bean based salsa, so it was a bit different from the norm, but good, in my opinion.

I love CoCo's! The food was great, and I loved my food. We went to Laredo and it was ok also but if I had my choice, I would choose to go to Coco's!! CoCo's, in my opinion is filler food, cheaply priced, but for a reason. I cook better Mexican food than that, and my Margarita's don't compare. I know some people dislike cooking, but I love to cook, and will continue to cook at home for most of my meals.

I agree, SJ. I love to cook too, and I will continue to do so. My tomatoes fresh from my "container" garden have been wonderful this year.
Went to Stinky's Thursday night for the first time, and was disappointed.
For the price of a meal for the two, I can buy groceries for two weeks! And, the iced tea was weak, we did not like the slaw...the room was hot -- the grouper was good, but the overall effect was disappointing. I won't be going back any time soon. At least not until the summer is is over.
