This was my first time at Canton Regio and it will definitely not be my last time! Fantastic. All around fantastic. Just a heads up to start - it's cash only so make sure you have physical $$$ if you plan on eating here. You could also pay a fee at the ATM they have inside too, if you don't mind that. Other than that, the experience was so good that it was hard to get me flustered. The food was great and the price was alright too. The service was top notch, the music was good, and the highlight of my time was their welcome appetizer taco, it was so simple yet so good. They even had handmade tortillas and I saw the lady literally making the tortillas in the restaurant, so cool. If you've never been (you're missing out) I highly recommend stopping by. Even if it's out of your way, give it a try. For sure worth it. Personal Review: 8.6/10

Super impressed esp by their carne asada tacos! The camaron tacos were also very good and we really enjoyed the tres leches cake. We will definitely be back for more!

I celebrated my cousin's birthday at Canton Regio in Pilsen, and it was an unforgettable experience! The 2 kilos of skirt steak, shrimp skewers, and chicken skewers were a carnivore's dream. The highlight was when the lights dimmed, and they surprised my cousin with a sombrero while playing the Mexican happy birthday song - a festive touch that made the night truly special. Great food, lively atmosphere, and top-notch service! Just a note, the restaurant is BYOB and cash only, so do come prepared!

I found Cantón Regio through Yelp as I was searching for a restaurant that was in Chicago's southside, easy parking, and of course, latin food. That brought me to Pilsen neighborhood. Cantón had lots of great reviews and photos, so I figured why not? It was raining out, and I gladly welcomed the chicken soup that was sat in front of us without requesting. It comes automatically along with chips and salsa. My husband decided to get tilapia tacos, but the main event for me was the steak fajitas. It comes with refried beans and guacamole. I'm generally not a fan of refried beans, but I'm so glad that I didn't tell to not give them because these were the best refried beans I've ever tasted in my entire life! We were too full to try dessert, but I definitely have to make another trip to taste the other menu options. The fajitas alone would make Cantón Regio one of the mexican restaurants in Chicago. If you ever visit, this restaurant is cash only, no credit cards accepted.

Still one of the very best neighborhood Mexican spots around. If you haven't been yet, you lose.

The queso fundido with chorizo is really good, really stretch cheese, but a bit too salty the shrimp skewers are very tasty, you get 3 big skewers of shrimps and bell peppers, the shrimps are marinated pretty well the kilo steak comes with a steel pan, and very tender and tasty we came here for weekend brunch, and it's always packed with a long wait. For Friday dinner if you come before 6, it is usually ok with minimal wait cash only!
