Cantina Canalla in Malaga

- Great ambiance- Good and kind service- Great food

Delicious, great food, great menu, great drinks and great staff. full marks.

Modern and stylish looking Mexican restaurant with great Cheladas and food. We shared an octopus and shrimp ceviche, and a selection of 4 tacos. Everything was absolutely delicious - wed recommend the chorizo, beef, and slow cooked pork tacos. We like our food a bit more sour and the waiters had absolutely no issue giving us more lime and also adapting the Cheladas to our liking. Generally, the waiters were very friendly and paying attention by coming frequently to our table. Well for sure come back again.

Mediocre at best. 2.5 stars Tacos are pretty generous but fillings are v greasy and the tacos themselves are certainly NOT homemade. We saw them carry a jumbo pack of 50+ ready made cheapo tacos out of the storage cupboard. Other places make them fresh!! Margarita was frozen with no option for regular. Last time I came I asked for a Marg and got a fresh one. However it was poorly made with LEMONS not limes. Terrible. We have given this place another chance and it failed. Got to la Nina bonita or Sylvias!! Much better. Sorry but use only in emergencies and be prepared for mediocrity at best. Mens toilets are also a mould breeding ground and a health hazard. Not sure how many different colours and types... I lost count as I held my breath and left asap.

Very bad service and over priced food

Friendly waiters who flirt a lot.1 tabla of 6 tacos = €17.Great central location.Super cute and aesthetic space with cute neon sign.Tacos tasted pretty good, wish they were bigger. They were not very spicy , so they could be more spicy!They had good WiFi.I would recommend this place! I would eat here again !

Great lunch on a Sunday! The nachos, tacos, and fajitas were fantastic!

Happy vibes and welcoming atmosphere, mexican themed, friendly waiters, great service, very spicy mexican food which I avoided, vegan and vegetarian friendly, very nice drink that they call "mexican water", €€.The margarita was good.When its crowded the waiters become a little lost, the music was too loud and they put up a birthday song at full volume for 3 minutes, so the lack of respect for customers comfort loses a star.

Surprisingly nice place found looking for taco.We had a dish split (fajitaat the staff suggestion.The exact taste I was looking for.Definitely recommend

Great Mexican food, not to spicy. Pretty close to the original. Nice atmosphere

Very average, food was not very tasty. It is clean and nice vibe, but if you want to eat some serious Mexican food, go somewhere else.The owner or the manager was very nervous, walking around the restaurant the whole time. I was eager to leave, felt very uncomfortable.

Loved coming here in Spain! Last minute place but best decision we could have made! I didn’t know much Spanish and the staff didn’t know much English but we made it work with a friendly encounter. Will definitely come here again if I’m in Spain.

The first two times I went here it was amazing, but it’s gone downhill not only in food quality but in service. The waitresses were SO RUDE. I’ve never had such a poor customer service experience before in a restaurant especially one that has ratings as good as this. Super sassy, rude, and short with us for no reason. It’s not that hard to smile and say a few words to your customers. Also the appies were served with rock hard chips and a dip with a hard crust over top. Needless to say, will NOT be returning. Sad.

It was a great experience, well decorated, good ambience, great service, and food. Definitely I would go back and recommend to any one who likes the Mexican food and drinks. Congratulations for your great work.

Very cool interior, tasty cocktails and the best Fajitas I ever had. Also to mention the very good & punctual service. Incredible experience!!!

Excellent restaurant with an outstanding and charismatic staff. The food is delicious, with a fairly good quantity and good ingredients. The cocktails are also a highlight!

Worth to visit for some spicy tacos

Really nice Mexican restaurant! Very friendly service, great tacos, not expensive and a good atmosphere!

Ambiance, décor and service excellent. Food tasty and authentic. Good sized portions.

Authentic, delicious Mexican food & superb Margaritas.

Excellent !! There was a traffic jam, so we went for lunch early instead of picking up the car. Lucky us! We got really good mexican food and at a very reasonable price. The location may cause you to doubt, but dont worry, it is worth the visit.

Found this qaint little Mexican Dinner snuged in a side street! By far the best Gordita Ive had! The owners have made good efforts to create that Mexican Vibe and decor which captivates ones imagination! A good dinner is rounded off with frozen slushed margarita

Great and fast service, even though the poor waitress was alone serving many people in the Valentines day.The food was delicious, the good taste of Mexican cuisine 👌🏽😊

Veryyy good Mexican food, though I wish it was more spicy, they got us the most spicy stuff, but still, doesnt compare with what we had in Mexic. The staff ia friendly and knowledgeable and they recommended not to take too much as the portions are big.

Great food. Great service. Was impressed. Will need to go back to claim my Tequila shot!!

Great ceviche, nice place

This is one of three Mexican places we like in town. The food is authentic and everything we have tried is good. The nachos are definitely what you want to start with and the tacos Al pastor are a good value for Malaga. The staff is extremely nice and helpful. Reservations are recommend but not required so long as you dont come too late. Our son likes the quesadillas because they are not too spicy but have good flavor. Definitely check this place out if you are in the neighborhood.

Mexican food not worthy of that name. We ordered enchiladas suizas and tacos de carnitas. Neither were anywhere like you would expect. They didnt even use corn tortilla for the tacos!Disappointed. There are much better Mexican restaurants in Malaga, Fuengirola and Torremolinos.

Top bar/restaurant.Great atmosphere.

Great food and service

Great atmosphere with life music.

Very friendly bar staff and great selection of drinks. Food not very appetizing

Very good food and service. We will be back!

Great place. Best Mexican food I had outside México. We had all tacos and most starters in the menu. All of them delicious. Nice waiters and very good vibes.

Best service,nice taco and corn cake!!!!!

I was looking for some carne ,bean and rice but they didn’t have anything like that , it was more fancy stuff but overall will go back .. the food actually very tasty. And the ice cream delicious!!

Amazing! Food is pricy but amazing. The waiters were all very friendly and very hard working people. Very good environment. Amazing experience!

Great and authentic Mexican food. Amazing michelada.All the staff is superb, don’t hesitate in taking their advice!

Showed up at 7 and it was closed. Please update hours to reflect when you’re not planning on serving.

Great Tacos for low prices, great customer service and atmosphere in the restaurant. I definitely recommend this place.

First of all, this is a chain. In our case, service was very attentive. But the food is some kind of "modernised mexican", that is, not really traditional. Quantity is extremely scarce for the price they charge.

Super tasty Mexican food, nice Margarita, great service and amazing vibes

Last Saturday I had the pleasure to discover this amazing restaurant. I was walking with some friends in Malaga, Soho and we saw this restaurant. As soon we entered the restaurant we knew that this was going to be one of the best Mexican restaurants in Malaga. The service was a 10/10 it was amazing. The staff was super polite and respectful towards the costumers and they speak perfect english. Furthermore, the staff also explain to you each dish and if you have any questions the staff is really useful. We ordered many dishes, for example the arrachera and let me tell you it was delicious!! Another dish that I ordered was the chocolate coulan and it was also incredible. To conclude, the price of the restaurant is perfect for the quality of the food. I highly recommend this restaurant to any tourist that want to have a good experience and most important that want to eat good.

Pollo tinga is fantastic! Great vibe, Mexican beer - great combination of authentic and fusion! Perfect Micheladas!

Friendly staff, nice interior and good food &drinks!

Perfect tapas sized Mexican dishes. And fantastic drinks

Good food and service.

Best Mexican food in Malaga. Al Pastor was great. Kids loved the fajitas. Real Mexican spices and not Indian. I’m a Mexican resident and this good Mexican!! It was also the best service I’ve had in Spain. It’s was California level service.

Went for taco for 1 euro on a Thursday and it was quite the confusion which and what taco but good tacos though

Service average. Food was not good, barely okay. Way too pricey. Taco Dorado 13€ and I finished eating after just 2mins and I am not a fast eater. The size would be a starter in most Restaurants...
