The Cactus Mexican - Waterloo

The Cactus Mexican Restaurant is truly a hidden gem! This was my second visit, and the food was delightful! I ordered the green enchiladas, which came with chips, rice, and beans. The more sauce, the better! I also tried the taco de bistec, which comes with three tacos. Make sure to enjoy the tacos fresh to avoid them getting soggy. I definitely plan to return and explore more items on the menu!

Wow! What a delightful family-owned restaurant. Mexican cuisine is my favorite, and I've tried many places, but this has the best chimichanga I've ever tasted! The rice was also outstanding—truly the best I've had. The food was incredibly fresh and full of flavor, and the staff was exceptionally kind and attentive. If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would!

Suadero tacos are unbelievably delicious! The pescadillas are always outstanding! And who doesn't love a great margarita? The nachos are fantastic too!

Fantastic, authentic Mexican food. Home cooked with love, and fresh ingredients. Nothing fancy, but you won’t be disappointed. The family ownership, and kind service tops off a great experience.

Looks like a family run restaurant…but the food is definitely recommended. They serve with love and very close to actual street Mexican food. They revised the prices recently so expect 25-30$ per person bills. I loved their enchiladas and they rarely serve the onion hot sauce which is amazing
