Cancun Mexican and International Restaurant in Cranbrook

This is probably the most authentic restaurant in Cranbrook. Its like eating at your grandmas house. Mucho bueno! Cinco estrellas!

My fave place to eat in cranbrook! Best food ever..

Parking: The mole sauce is excellent on the chicken enchiladas and my husband enjoyed sopa maricosa. Food

Good food , sort of pricey for retired folks.

Very authentic and so good. I recommend.

Tortilla soup had raw onions *gross*. Ordered fiesta platter. Chicken without flavour and rubbery all other food was bland. Kids hated it. Awful and complete waste of money..$9 Coronas which I didnt have.

The food and the service was excellent. Very clean and tidy inside, you could eat off the floor. May have enjoyed a couple too many margaritas as well

Authentic.

Really good mexican meals. Tins of flavor

Excellent food friendly staff highly recommend this place

No good operator. Food was subpar. Only good thing about the place was the tiny serving of chips and salsa. Way overpriced. I had the fiesta plate and the only edible thing was the cheese quesadilla.

The place looks fine.We had takeout. We had the fiesta plate and it was bad. Bland cold not like anything Mexican. No guacamole no sour cream no salsa. Cold piece of bad tasting chicken breast.

So good and authentic!

Awesome experience I will spend my money here again.

I love everything here, my favorite is the beef chimichanga, with refried beans and rice with a mango Lassi to drink.

Amazing. Try the deep fried ice cream after the combonito. Thank me later!

Soo good and the service was amazing... Will definitely send our friends here!!! A must try in Cranbrook.

great food & service

Basic Mexican fare served in a nicely decorated setting.

Very friendly. Big portions. The food was so good. Complimentary chips and salsa were great.

Love the Tortilla soup here

The best! 100% authentic!!

The food was delicious and we got very large portions! Staff were also very nice!

Love this cute lil restaurant. Everything is amazing. I definitely would recommend this place to eat

Thanks for the great service

Excellent food and service.

Excellent food and service

Quiet atmosphere. Fantastic food!!!

last time i was there, it was with family who was in town visited. we shared some dishes and all enjoyed the food and company.

Amazing food, friendly quick service, only thing they dont take visa.

Does not take credit cards or US debit cards. Will be unhelpful when trying to pay with US cash and not offer accurate exchange rate. Food overpriced and disappointing. Veggie quesadilla was just a bag of frozen peas inside a tasteless tortilla. Will not return.

Rip off if youre using US cash. Discriminates against US citizens. Wont take your debit card if youre from the US.

Do not pass by! Everything is so delicious! The sweetest owners as well. A quick note: They have recently decided to go without credit options to pay. Bring your debit card or cash! This may seem like an inconvenience but it means more money in small business owners pockets and more potential to stay open to bring authentic deliciously made meals to the community, which I fully support! :)

Incredibly friendly staff, and the food was absolutely delicious!

Wanted to eat here and called ahead from another province to check the menu before stopping here... closed while Google says open. :(

paid the wrong bill

It is the best restaurant in Cranbrook, I recommend it because the food is super delicious and the customer service is ten out of ten

Always incredible food, friendly service and authentic experiences

The food was so bland no spices was added. Parking: Ok Food : 1/5 |

Authentic food great service

I cant explain just how warm and welcoming the food and hard workers here were. Me and my wife decided to try a new restaurant in town and we are sure glad it was here. For a man who can eat lots of food a shared appetizer and meal was more than enough to leave me and my wife full and wishing we could eat more. Please take your time to try these people out its to die for, P.S almost everything if not all was homemade and felt like home

Loved the food. Very authentic. We spend winters in Mexico and we felt like we were back there. The decor was very Mexico! And we enjoyed the Pacifico beers. Well definitely go back.

Wasnt in Mexico so obviously a Google thing

Dined in and had a lovely experience! Food is authentic, and delicious, staff are friendly.

Never had a bad meal. Always good!

Microwaved food yuk Nice staff, Looooong wait, food was served cold. When notifying the staff about the cold food they took my plate into the kitchen and microwaved it.

Our lunch was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. Charming atmosphere and friendly owner.

One of my favorite little restaurants in Cranbrook. Service is always great and the food is very authentic.

A hidden Cranbrook gem. Authentic dishes and good Margheritas! Real Mexican dishes, good portions. They carry El Salvador items like pupusas (which are great, also).

Authentic Mexican!? Frozen vegetable medley in the fajita? Canned tomato soup as tortilla soup? Slow service and generally felt ignored. Not an onion to be detected, completely void of bell peppers, absolutely no cumin, couldnt find a chili if you tried... bland. Overall, a fail.

This restaurant was really highly spoken of. As we were traveling through town we decided to drop in and see what all the hype was about. We love authentic Mexican cuisine but this was just okay. Some items were bland and others were uncomfortably spicy. I love spicy. Chicken tasted like it was boiled and then spices were added after the fact. Rice was white long grain rice with frozen peas and carrots in it. I wasnt upset or disgusted but I wouldnt travel to come back. Parts of the meal were microwaved and plates came out so hot it burnt to touch.

This place is a hidden treasure! It s literally the best

Fantastic! Authentic for sure. I love Mexican food and this place certainly nails it. Super friendly staff, nice and quiet. Great portions and great prices. Complimentary nachos and salsa are great. Just like Mexico! I love how the fella speaks Spanish. Can pretend Im on vacation for an hour. Ill be making special trips down from Radium to eat here!

It was just ok The owner is very friendly! Parking: Has parking on the side

Staff was friendly and service was acceptable but the food was bland It s possible that the chicken was warmed up could be the worst Latin meal I ve ever had

Very good Mexican food with home made chips and pico

Lovely decor, warm service, delicious food with generous portions. So good!

Very bad tostadas, no ice in sodas

Only cash and Canadian debit cards, bad food, tostadas tasted off and waiter argued. Everything else VERY mediocre. Stay away

Great service great food dont listen to the other people they probably think McDonalds is authentic this was authentic food worth the try if you can

This place is so good. Great food.

Great food! Huge portions. We had the fajitas and enchiladas. Would highly recommend either dish. They even grilled up an extra spicy pepper for my husband after he mentioned he liked spice. Wish this place was in my hometown, wed go all the time!

So good. A little run down outside, but fantastic on the inside where it counts

Lovely family-run authentic Mexican restaurant. Very friendly. Note they dont accept credit card. Cash or debit only.

This is not authentic Mexican Food

Amazing Mexican restaurant. Great like marquaritas. Great food. Owner is so nice.

My boyfriend and I, went to Cancun Restaurant to have Real Mexican Food but this is not Mexican style... We are from , obviously we know about Mexican stuff. I ordered Green enchiladas without sour cream or cheese, and the waiter brought me, Enchiladas Rojas. My boyfriend ordered Flautas and they were different from authentic Mexican Food. The flavour of the food is good, but the service is not top-notch, We ordered a drink Horchata Water is the best one that I ever had here, you should try this one We finished our meal and the server brought us the bill, ( we didnt ask for the bill), we wanted to order a dessert but instead, We paid and we leave. The atmosphere is that of ancient Mexico The Horchata water is the best!

Our meal was tasty, the restaurant is super cute, the owners were lovely and it didnt break the bank. Well be back when were through Cranbrook again!

Small place authentic decor. Family run. Nice people . Food is delicious and lots on your order. Want good Mexican food. This is the place. Wont be disappointed

The worst food I have ever had at a restaurant. Lunch was very disappointing. The salsa was watery, looked like tomato juice. I was given one flauta, two papasas which were raw on the inside, a tiny bit of salad, 1 teaspoon of guacamole, a little white rice and some watery refried beans. I have eaten Mexican food all over the world but never this bad. The waiter (maybe the owner) was talking on a personal call instead of checking to see if we needed something. Then the restaurant would not accept my international VISA because it was from the US.

Delicious, great service.

It was so aweful worst I ever had ! For 61$ o ha sloppy soupy beans and 2 bureto wraps- I think it gave food poisoning- the worst ever Vegetarian options: Nope and nasty

Working in Cranbrook this week. I was excitied when i saw they had a mexican restaurant. Spent alot of time in mexico...didnt know there was such a thing as a bad Fajitas until I came here.

Was not very mexican.

Its Mexican food, but seemed like Mexican food that they would serve in an old folks home. Not a lot of flavor. No spice.

Amazing food! Owner is a the nicest person you will every meet! Great place to eat!

Best Mexican/Latin food in the Kootenays, no doubt! Consistently Great.

Do not really like it.

OMG Super duper amazing restaurant I finished a plate even though I wasnt hungry at all. MUST TRY fried ice cream after meal. Highly recommend :)

Lovely older couple, presumably from El Salvador, own this restaurant and I enjoyed the opportunity to support a local business but the food was not great. A thimble of guac and a thimble of salsa for our fajitas. We might have gotten better quality food from the taco bell across the street. Just felt like all the food came from a can.

I discovered Cancun when I started traveling through Cranbrook for work a couple of times every month in July 2020. I have made it a point of going back at least a couple of times a month. Food is excellent! Very fresh tasting and I have tried several of the dishes on the menu. My favorite is the chicken chimichanga. Service has always been with a smile and I just cant say enough good things about the restaurant. Menu pricing is very reasonable and portions are large. Will definitely stop here when Im in Cranbrook next!

Always fresh, and great service

Best Mexican food around these parts!! Need to try the mango drink as well.

Very fresh food, good portions & fair prices.

Great service and food was amazing highly recommend this a go to stable for a nice outing.

Lovely people and amazing food. What a great little place.

They close at 9 but wouldnt let us in at 815. Waste of time.

Delicious, authentic food. Great experience.

Enchiladas were excellent.

Great food. Little mom and pop operation. Home made simple menu. Authentic.

The food is so tasty.

Had a couple of Dos Equis and the flautas with salsa verda and every thing was amazing! Service was good, food was so delicious in was so full from the lunch portion but it was too good to leave any behind. Cant wait for my next visit!

I was driving through Cranbrook and decided to stop here based on the reviews. This is possibly the worst burrito I ve ever ordered in my life, I can t believe this was $17. If I had ordered for dine in and this showed up on my table I would ve sent it back but I had already left. I walked into the restaurant just after opening so I was the only customer inside. After I placed my order the gentleman walked into the kitchen and I heard a microwave. For me that is a major red flag restaurant should not be reheating food in a microwave especially authentic restaurants. I wish I would ve left as soon as I heard the microwave. The tortilla 100% hands-down was not home made the rice tasted old and gritty the bean sauce was an edible. There was literally nothing in the burrito except pieces of meat and a sliver of cheese. I honestly don t know how they sell this

Nice little place with surprisingly good food. I was hoping to finish of the meal with desert but they didnt have anything to offer.

We stopped in at Cancun Mexican and International for a late lunch today. Loved it! Good food, good service and wonderful people running the restaurant. Engaging and charming. I REALLY thank them for asking for our COVID-19 vaccination passports which is now required by law. By doing the right thing and asking for our vaccination passports they show that they want to be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Gracias!

Salvadoran and Mexican fair. Its quite nice and a definite change from most of Cranbrook. It tastes like a home cooked meal and most of the combination plates give a great amount of variety.

Very good authentic food!

Legit Qyisine

what a delightful surprise in Cranbrook. Very fresh vegetables, well prepared meals with just enough spice to keep us gringos interested. Price was reasonable, and the service from a mom and pop type was just excellent. Location is a bit hidden and the interior is very comfortable and clean. I will go there whenever I visit Cranbrook.

New favourite restaurant for our drive, we ll be stopping here every trip. You will not be disappointed, family run, friendly and best of all amazing authentic Mexican food.

This place is AUTHENTIC. I feel like Im no longer in Canada when I go in. The food is delicious with good value, and evidently homemade. When you leave you you are comfortably full and dont feel like youve ingested pounds of carbs and salt like other restaurants. I love supporting this place.

Took awhile for my meal to be ready..

I hate leaving bad reviews, but have to be fair. The food was bland and uninspired... and then we got food poisoning. I wouldnt recommend.

Really good, authentic, family run.

Food was incredibly bad. Overcooked steak that was very tough. Greasy vegetables. Rice with frozen vegetables. Old frozen shrimp. Gross. And they dont take credit cards and dont even have a sign out front saying that. Never going back.

Service was very personable. Food was exactly how described and delicious.

Food was fast, hot, and delicious! Service was quick. Super cute place with their decor! Prices are good and it was not very busy when we came here (on a Friday night...which I was like BUT HOW? ITS SO DELICIOUS.) They also provided chips when we arrived, which I always appreciate. Please note they do not accept credit cards here as it is a family operated restaurant (as one gentleman felt the need to complain about loudly for a long length of time, which was the only disappointing that happened while I was here). Just bring cash or debit, like a normal person would.

Very tasty!

really great food in a nice mexican environment.

The food & service are amazing! The owner is friendly & soft spoken and speaks Spanish which adds to the authenticity of this restaurant. We have been to other Mexican or Spanish restaurants & the staff did not know what we were talking about when we are speaking Spanish to them. We have drove out of our way to come to this place when in the area. It is as a place we would definitely recommend to others.

Amazing authentic food!

Good food

The service, the staff, the decor was so amazing and friendly. I had the Chimichangas, the portions are big, food hot and so delicious. The homemade chips/salsa is complimentary and so tasty! Wonderful authentic and so delicious! Garcias

Fantastic Mexican.

Ive been to LA, Sacramento, and I love Mexican cuisine. This place is on point. Highly recommended for an authentic Mexican meal.

Quaint restaurant serving good size portions that deliver in flavors. Staff are observing covid rules and have set the place up accordingly.

The service was pleasant and the food was authentic and delicious with a great atmosphere. Only downside was they forgot to get my kid her strawberry pop.

Food was good. Worth checking out.

Good price, quick service, good food. Was empty besides 1 person when I got there at lunch.

Chicken chimichanga. Filling and deliscious.

Really good food.

Authentic mexican....brought me back to Zihuatanejo in a heart beat....

My favorite restaurant in town by quite a margin. The food is amazing and the service is awesome! Highly recommend to everyone!

Magnifico! Authentic Salvadorian resteraunte. Well worth a visit.

Authentic and delicious.

Food was great -! Very reasonable prices.

Great authentic Mexican food nice atmosphere, friendly service and reasonable prices.

Terrible food. Dirty enviroment. Would not come back.

The best restaurant in town for what it is. Almost all the best orders are non-vegetarian though, unfortunately :(

Food and service was excellent.

We have heard very good reviews of this restaurant. They are all as expected and more. The cuisine is very authentic, good portions and a pleasing plate appearance. The flavours are what I expect and receive in Mexico. I tried a Sal Valdoran dish called Tempecurcina I apologize for the incorrect spelling, very delcious. I definitely recommend this local favorite.

Great food

No taste!! Dont know how they got the reviews they have...ever had Mexican food??

I ordered what the menu calls the most popular dish in El Salvador. It was much lighter than the cheese-laden fare you often get at Mexican restaurants. The food was well-presented, delicious & healthy! Very nice. I was the only customer on a Saturday night, however. The place could use a bit of a facelift -- the washrooms are in desperate need of a few hundred bucks worth of upgrades. The kitchen cabinets, visible to customers, should be painted. A small investment in upkeep -- even na few new $2 switch covers would make a difference! -- could make the place more inviting and bring in more customers.

Great food

Food had amazing flavour, portions were large, atmosphere was Great, facilities were spotless, price was good, one of the best Mexican Restaurants I ve been too and I been to a bunch. If you like Mexican food Eat here you won t regret it

Love the filipino style curry! Will always order it again

Very good dining experience, friendly owners and delicious food

Good prices and service. Got the platter and shared it.

Amazing food, wonderful owner and chefs. Beautiful atmosphere. Hint: try the margaritas

The food is always great and the service is good

Must eat place...nice owners

Not the Mexican experience I hoped for

Amazing authentic food the couple that owns and run the place are super friendly

Food was good but the place wasnt clean and the bathroom was disgusting.

The beans looked like they came out of a pigs rear. Definitely not a place I would return to.

It was a quaint little restaurant, you can take the effort put in to each meal. The stars gives it there all, everytime. Though it is a little under staffed, so expect a small wait from time to time.

Great authentic Mexican food, friendly welcoming service

Excellent food

Friendly and good food

First time at this awesome restaurant. Pleasantly surprised by the wonderful service, fab food and certainly priced reasonably. I will be going back!

Wonderful food

Wonderful place to eat n pleasant staff and atmosphere

Such a treat every time

Great authentic homemade food!

Delicious authentic food and friendly service in a quiet setting. One of my dishes was an avacdo ceviche with orange juice. Delicious. Although I personally think line juice would have begun tastier.

Delicious food with huge portions. I got the Beef Chimichangas the meat was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Service was attentive and friendly. Payment options were a little outdated.

Great Authentic Mexican in Cranbrook. Plus other dishes.

Love this restaurant, best Mexican food in the Kootenays!

Good food and nice service.

Great food

Excellent!

Food not good

Dont let the rough exterior of the building keep you from experiencing the authentic, delicious delicacies found within. By far the best Mexican cuisine I have ever tasted in BC.

Awesome food!

Very very nice service! Great people. Nice atmosphere, and the food was excellent!

My son demanded I write a review for this place. Granted we were hungry, but we enjoyed all of our meals. The mint in the beans is amazing! Highly recommended.

Food was somewhat average. Service was just ok.

Great food.

Great food

The food is always delicious. I love the staff

Food is authentic and very very good. Was very busy when we there so wasnt super quick service but we were in no rush so it was fine with us.

Visited on our way through Cranbrook and are.avid Mexican food fans. Service was good, friendly host and restaurant was clean. We were the only ones there though at lunchtime. We found our meals on the bland side however, and the rice was not mexican at all, more like standard long grain plain rice. Refried beans were very bland and meals needed salt. Salsa was good however. Overall just ok and not a showstopper for us.

Loved it. The was flavorful and fresh. Ill eat there again when visiting.

Fantastic meal and would definitely go back. This isnt American Mexican, so if excessive cheese and beans is your thing, then maybe look elsewhere. If youre interested in flavorful food with quality ingredients, this is a great place.

The Best Mexican in the Kootneays

I have eaten lunch or dinner 3 times over the course of a couple of years when I come to Cranbrook on business. It doesnt look like much from the outside but this is delicious, authentic Mexican food. Large portions, fresh ingredients, friendly service!

Absolutely my favourite restaurant in Cranbrook!! Never less than thrilled with the food and service!!

Looking for great food? Authentic Mexican dishes for a reasonable cost? This is a definate Go to restaurant for a delicious hearty, not hard on your wallet meal. Kinda like stepping through a time zone when you enter this place. The proprietors cook and serve the meals and make you wonder if you are in Cranbrook B.C. or someplace in Mexico.
