We're a family of four with two adventurous eaters (adults) and two picky eaters (kids). We ate at dinner La Cantina in July 2022 at the end of our first park day. The kids were tired and cranky, but the patio seating on the lake really calmed them. There were things that they could look at that distracted them and kept them moderately entertained. My husband and I ordered the Taco Trio and the Nachos to share, and I ordered chicken strips for my kids. The tacos were much smaller than I anticipated, but everything tasted okay with the exception of the tortilla chips which were quite bland. Overall, it was an okay experience. We would maybe go back but also maybe not. I am not going to recommend this restaurant because there was nothing about it that you couldn't experience a little better somewhere else .
Pros:
Lovely setting Good ambience and atmosphereCons:

Not a great experience the time I ate there. Food portion was small, and not very flavorful. Service not that great. Expensive. Overall prefer to eat inside the pyramid

Nice view of the lakeCons:

We only got the churros here for a snack. My daughter thought they were just O.K. but I thought they were awful. Small and chewy with watery caramel sauce, and hardly any cinnamon sugar. I wish I'd gotten nachos instead. They looked pretty good.
Pros:
Lots of seatingCons:

A few years back this used to be one of my family's favorite spots to eat at Epcot. No longer! I have no idea what happened. I don't think 3 small tacos with nasty, tasteless chips for 11.00 a great value. Most Mexican restaurants serve rice with their meals, not just chips. We were so disappointed with this meal. We will never go back unless things change dramatically. Another complaint was that the tables were extremely dirty. I don't think anyone cleaned them all day!

Very little choice and not very good, especially for the price.
We used to love the Cantina, before they changed the menu. It had a wide varietyon the menu to choose from, including side dishes such as rice and beans, and everything was delicious.
Now, you get a couple teeny tiny dry little tortillas with some dry little meat and a lime, with a pile of cold, greasy tortilla chips. Blech.
Or, worse yet, "nachos" which consist of more tortilla chips with that nasty, disgusting fake yellow "cheese" sauce dumped on. More blech.
I was SO disappointed I almost cried. Really. Just a darn shame.

They have changed the famous churros! They are now called "churritos." Same batter recipe, but they are smaller. Instead of 3 large churros, you get 6 small churritos. They are smaller and thinner, and curved into ovals. I was very disappointed.
The rest of our food was ok, but not amazing. If we eat here again, I would order the nachos. They looked AMAZING and lots of people were ordering them.
Pros:
Great location and atmosphere, simple menu choicesCons:

I had the chicken tacos and my husband had the beef, but they both looked the same. Each basket had three soft shell tacos and nacho chips. It’s rather expensive for how basic the food is and they charge for any extras, such as sour cream or guacamole.
I could find no open seating and had to ask someone if we could share their table.
Cast Members did a good job clearing the trays/tables and keeping the area clean.
Considering the cost and quality, will not be back. There are too many other options in Epcot to eat here again.

quick serviceCons:

My daughter and I paid $30.00 for a chicken taco dinner and a beef taco dinner with a side of guacamole. All the taco is was meat in a soft shell with a side of tortilla chips. Ther was no lettuce or tomato or anything else on the taco. The chicken was tasty and nicely seasoned. The beef was nothing we were at all used to. Odd tasting not steak and not chopped beef but an odd shredded something with weird seasoning. My daughter was not happy. It looked like a lot of people were ordering nachos. Maybe stick with that or the chicken tacos. But for $30 I would skip this one. I could have fed 8 people at taco bell for that and had better tasting food.
Pros:
Good guacamole nice locationCons:

We ordered the chicken tacos and they were tiny! They looked like mini tacos. They meat was ok but there were no toppings - just meat! The tortilla chips were stale. I thought it was expensive for the amount of food you got.
