Cancun Mexican Restaurant

Good Tex-​Mex food. Best green sauce I’ve had in several years. Great margaritas and good service. Just what we needed after a long trip on the road. Recommended.

Cancun has a lunch buffet if you are looking for a quick lunch. They make home made tortillas through lunch and its a decent buffet. The restaurant décor is dated but that is easily overlooked by the friendly staff. Decent chips and salsa. I have been here several times but have not ordered off the menu yet. If/​when I do, I will update my review.

Absolute best Mexican food in town! Rosa and the family make every meal special. Favorites: chile rellanos, cheese and onion enchillada, and carne asada… I’m getting hungry!

Salsa is delicious. The ground beef enchiladas, however, are not. Service is far below average. Waited forever to pay, and when we finally found our server he was on Facebook. So, if you’re interested in keeping to yourself munching on chips and salsa while sipping a Margarita, this place should suffice. Otherwise, go elsewhere.

I absolutely love this place!
The food is amazing, and it is family owned so the servers recognize you after a few trips and seem genuinely happy to see you. I have ended up taking a lot of people here because it’s so good.
I always get the same thing, chicken flautas, and the portion is often big enough for me to make a second meal out of it.
The only time I have ever been disappointed in them was when ordering sopapillas off of the dessert menu.

Love the food & the Sunday buffet can’t be beat. Very affordable! They make the tortias right there, yum, oh so fresh. However in dire need of a facelift for the outdated décor. Get rid of awful green paint, replace plastic plants with a few real plants, update pictures please & reupholster booths. Will miss the food…

Not my favorite place. Food is below average. Service and environment is above average

This place is seriously DELICIOUS! I ordered the chicken fajitas… Great service too. Try their lunch when they have the taco bar open!

The worst Mexican Restaurant i ever been. I order camarones a la diablas and instead i got mushrooms a la diabla i counted my shrimp 5 in total the rest were mushrooms, the salsa was so greasy, the rice didn’t have any flavor.
For the kids menu i order a. Chicken quesadilla for my almost 2 year old boy what we got was this huge plate with a huge portion of food nothing like a «kids meal».
The server was politr but he looked like he didn’t wanted to be there.
My conclusion is. I will never ever go to this place again. If you guys want real mexican/​sea food go to tacos y mariscos el compa located in caldwell is far but i promise you would like it

The inside was a little dark for my liking. The chips were warm and fresh and plenty of them. I didn’t care too much for the two types of salsas but my wife liked them. The enchiladas and tamales were really good. The sauce tasted fresh and more authentic than other places in the area and not like it was from a can. Our friends from Mexico also confirmed the food here is probably the most authentic Mexican food in Boise. Our server was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Will all you gringos please stop ordering sizzling fajitas? That is not Mexican food! LOL

One of my favorite places to go for dinner!
The service is always fantastic! I absolutely love the red salsa.

This restaurant starts your dining experience off by serving you with 2 types of salsa in addition to the bean dip. You get salsa Rojo and salsa verde. The verde had a nice little kick to it. My wife had the carne asada burrito and I had the fajitas. Both were good but the fajitas were the outstanding selection of the night. Service was great and friendly. They will definitely be seeing us again.

The food was less than memorable and ridiculously overpriced. The atmosphere was cheap and unpleasant. The server was quiet and distant, but polite. I regret eating at Cancun Mexican.

Best food in Boise. Are you kidding me? I would rather starve than eat this bland uninspired collect of ingredients. The price is utterly ridiculous. Skip it. If you are ignorant to believe they serve Mexican food, then you deserve what you get.

Not sure how this plac egot any good reviews. I had a chicken enchilada and a chicken taco… strange taste. seemed like canned diced tomatoes with chicken. We were a party of 5 and all gave it thumbs down

We are new to the area in the last couple of years, Cancun was recommended by family members — what a delight! Sure, the buffet is small, but the food is wonderful and homemade — with Mama manning the grill at the buffet delivering those wonderful fresh tortillas. The chili relenos are great, as are the other buffet offerings. Always consistent, fresh and tasty — our go to for good sit down Mexican food.

The worst !!! First the margarita sucked. Then waitstaff was very slow and rude. To top it off I got food poisoning from this restaurant. Will never eat there again

The first time we went to Cancun, I thought it was a little expensive for not-​too-​exciting Mexican food. Today we went, planning to order off the menu, but ended up getting the lunch buffet because we saw fresh corn tortillas being made. Yum! It was very good — fresh and flavorful and varied. I had an enchilada, a chile relleno, and some chicken in a red sauce that was very lean and good, plus a couple of those tasty fresh tortillas. The service is very friendly. And it wasn’t expensive — maybe last time I was feeling broke or we ordered margaritas or something. ..

Best Mexican food in Boise. Best service, hands down and the nicest staff I’ve ever encountered. They always make you feel welcome and the food is always top notch. I haven’t had bad food or service there, EVER.

It’s unfortunate that this restaraunt is tucked away in the back corner of a crummy Overland strip mall, because it serves some of the best mexican food in the Boise area.
The chips and salsa come with a verde salsa, red salsa, and bean dip. My dad claims that the bean dip is some of the best he’s ever had, and he’s almost 60. Yikes! The menu is delightfuly familiar yet varied enough to offer a bit of everything for everyone; from vegetarian to meat-​lover.
The wait-​staff was friendly and helpful; I’ve been here several times and have never recieved below-​average service. I greatly enjoy this hidden mexican gem, and would recommend it to anybody in the mood for some excellent south-​of-​the-​border fair. Olé!!!
