A Flavorless Fiesta: Disappointing Experience at Cancun Grill
I'm not sure what all the hype is about, but my recent visit to Cancun Grill and Cantina in Ankeny was a major letdown. As a Mexican food enthusiast, I was excited to try their unique flavor combinations, but unfortunately, the dishes we ordered were lackluster and uninspired. The cheese enchiladas were overcooked and dry, the Carne Asada was tough and flavorless, and the Tacos Al Carbon were just...meh. The service was also subpar - our server seemed overwhelmed and took ages to take our orders and refill our drinks. The atmosphere, while bright and clean, felt more like a generic chain restaurant than a vibrant Tex-Mex cantina. For a place that prides itself on its Mexican heritage and commitment to exceptional service, I expected a lot more. Maybe it was just an off day, but I won't be back to find out. With so many other great Mexican restaurants in the area, Cancun Grill and Cantina needs to step up its game if it wants to compete. Until then, I'll be taking my taco Tuesdays (and every other day) elsewhere.
