Anita's Mexican Cantina

I came here as a party of 12 (big family) and was seated within 30 minutes despite the dinner rush (6 pm on a Saturday). We were greeted with chips and salsa at the table, which carried a hint of spice, but was still enjoyable for the kids. I ordered the Cadillac Margarita, and my wife had the Anta's Spicy Margarita, both of which were quite enjoyable (the spicy margarita certainly lives up to it's name).

We tried this place last night since we figured they have been in business for almost 50 years. Horrible service ever.

Absolutely a waste of time and money.

Whenever I'm in Oceanside I always stop by Anita's. I love their shrimp enchiladas they are the best I would definitely recommend people to try them. The staff is always attentive to your needs. The drinks here are also great I usually get their mango margarita.The atmosphere here is family friendly and relaxed.

Food has an authentic traditional taste. Server always go above and beyond to ensure an amazing experience. Just a great place to have a great experience. (Except the hostess. She thinks that by apologizing her mistakes disappear.
