Their food is amazing. Had an amazing hot chocolate with a hint of cinnamon. Their tacos are to die for. Their customer care is too good it would suffocate you. They are always checking if you are good or have been helped. Loved the place. I'm definitely going back. Was only sad they didnt have prawns. Really wanted to try their prawn tacos

I really enjoyed this Mexican restaurant in Lilongwe. Although the food is a long way from home, it's authentic enough. Service was excellent, both the pork burrito and the margaritas were tasty. I do recommend it.

First time being to this joint and loved it that much that I went back on the same day. Had brunch, chicken enchiladas before going back in the evening for a chilli margarita. Definitely recommend this place. Well done to the owners.

What a great spot for pretty authentic Mexican food! Everything here is very tasty and clean, no flies (unless you sit outside). They have a variety of dishes. Appetizers include taquitos and guacamole. They have huge burritos, a taco selection, and 6 main dishes that include steak, pork, chicken. Desserts: churros, crème brûlée, cake, ice cream. Seriously this place is awesome.

We found Cantina online and went to try them out. I have eaten at many Mexican restaurants in dozens of countries over the last 50 years +. We ordered the chicken burritos and were surprised at how very delicious they were. I would rate them as some of the best I have ever eaten. To top it off, the service was excellent as well. I cannot recommend this restaurant high enough. If you like Mexican...give them a try. You will not be disappointed.

Wonderful ambience, plenty of seating to suit your mood. Very nice shop for chitenje sewn souvenirs and second hand dresses. Cucumber chili margarita and aqua fresca delicious and refreshing. And stays open past 5pm.

Came here after wanting to treat myself the night before I left malawi and I had a blast. The food was absolutely delicious and definitely not something common to see around Africa, a little pricey but if you want to treat yourself this is the place to go!

Went here on my first night in Lilongwe and I cannot recommend it enough. It was a beautiful evening in a well decorated, lovely setting with great food and excellent service. The guacamole and cucumber chili margarita were highlights but I’m sure everything on the menu would be great.

La Cantina nails that easy, Mexican-inspired vibe. With three bars, a solid wine selection, plenty of space, and a laid-back atmosphere, it’s perfect for dinner or a chilled afternoon hangout. The setup is simple but versatile—grab a drink at the bar, explore their boutique, or even unwind at the spa if that’s your thing. It’s not trying to be overly fancy; it just gets the balance right between relaxed and lively. Whether you’re here for the food, drinks, or just the vibe, La Cantina has a way of keeping it casual while giving you plenty of reasons to stay. Perfect for catching up with friends or just doing your own thing.

Nice jazzy vibe. To bad there is no wifi so we could not scan the QR code for the menu. But the staff helped us with their own phone.
