I’ve had a lot of bad airport food and experiences. This is not one of them. Even when I’m in a hurry they’ll quickly whip up a fish and rice bowl with egg(not on the menu). And they’ll only charge me $ 3.50. Good, simple and fast. Exactly what you need in an airport.

Bad tacos: ordered beef, steak, chicken, super small, no flavor, not much in shell, little cheese and watery lettuce. 1 step above Taco Bell, skip and head to Aviators

I have no idea why there is such a low rating for this place. For a grab and go its quite good. As we were waiting for our next flight we went to grab a quick bit from this place. As the name suggests, it was express and quick. You choose you drink and the item on the menu, they make that item on your way to the till and you are out. I ordered Vegetarian burrito and to be honest it was decent and much better option them getting something to eat in the plane. The burrito was fresh, done right and stuffed very well. The take out packaging was good to take into the plane if you are running late. Over all good place to grab something quick.

Grabbed lunch here during our layover. I decided on the steak burrito, even though there were green bell peppers and onions mixed in with the steak, but I just knew the flavors would be good. A tortilla with some rice, black beans, steak, cheese, and sour cream… yum! My burrito was really good. Not as big as a Chipotle burrito, but that is okay with me! The steak was well marinated and not tough at all. Great choice for lunch.

A nice surprise for airport food. I had a six hour layover and walked the whole length of concourse B before picking to eat here. The gumbo was excellent. Wish I had room to try the Poblano chicken burrito too. It looked so good. The staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions. Only recommendation I would make is to have tortilla soup on the menu with roasted tortillas like the Mexican grill at the Houston airport. I don’t know why reviewers are complaining about the price. It is the airport! Where else have you paid $ 2.25 for water?

Terrible. Just terrible. I should know better than to eat airport food, but I was hungry and there was no line. Now I know why. Cashier acted like he were doing me a huge favor by serving a terrible burrito at ripoff prices. Rude and obnoxious. Burrito ingredients tasted like they’d been sitting around for days. Don’t make the same mistake I made. Go somewhere else.

Would NEVER recommend this to anyone. C’mon Cantina… what kind of microwaved food are you serving people? Was terrible. The plastic dishes didn’t bother me so much, because I’d rather complain about the quality of the food. Tasted like a heated up/worse version of a lean cuisine with LESS flavor than a lean cuisine. My family of 4 felt the same way about their food. Definitely better options in the airport.

This is like a Chipolte, but not as good. It’s like they just bought all the food at a grocery store, and went for the cheap stuff. However it’s better than fast food, in a quiet spot, and you’re only choice for Mexican food in the B central concourse

It was alright. I liked that there was SOMETHING I could eat here! This is basically like Chipotle but with a way worse tortilla, but the staff was alright and the price was alright considering this was in an airport!

Not as good as the sitdown cousin next door, but the same food… just in a Chipotle style format. Pricing is the same. Sit down area is better in my opinion and especially the bar area where the servers are fantastic. I’ve had just about everything but I always do one thing to whatever I order: Spend the extra $ 1 for the Green Chile Sauce smothered over the top of whatever you order. I love it!!! The Green Chile Gumbo is my favorite for lunch or dinner. Try it with the pork.

This was quite possibly the worst food I’ve ever had. They called it steak but it was clearly soy crumbles. Yuck.

I was waiting for my flight and wanted to watch the game, so I stopped in for a min to catch up on the scores. I ordered a beer and some chips and salsa, which were pretty cheap for airport prices. This is place is nothing special and no diff than any other cantina-style place in any other aiport.

Meh. Bland. And to echo several other reviewers, the staff would really rather you didn’t bother them. Keep walking.

Excellent burrito but overpriced for a fast food taco stand. Ordered the pork burrito smothered in chili verde pork salsa, chose pork for the filling and a combo of mild and medium salsas. Added a side of sour cream and a drink and paid $ 13.50 or so. Taste rivaled or beat most high-end Mexican restaurants. Will definitely eat here again! Read some reviews here and had to laugh. Veggie burrito? Of course it wasn’t good — this is Mexican food not Whole Foods and it’s pretty authentic. Try the burrito I ordered, you’ll love it!

Food so bad it’s offensive. I ordered a veggie burrito & once i saw it getting made I wanted to abandon my order because the ingredients looked so bad. I really wish I had walked away. The burrito was awful. It literally tasted like nothing. The veggies were canned and tasted that way. A bunch of liquid seeped out & make the tortilla soggy. Although I got all 3 salsas(and paid extra because you can only have 1) it still tasted like nothing. Horribly bland & unsatisfying. No joke, after eating an entire burrito, I went downstairs and got a whole new meal. Save yourself the $ 10 a meal for 1 costs here and go someplace else, anywhere else.

Eat, drink and be talked about behind your back. Korey the bartender talked $h!t about a bar patron after he left the bar. The guy was talkative but friendly. it’s in your job description to visit with the customers. Don’t bad mouth them when they leave. I like coming here because it’s quiet. The food is so so and I stick to the shredded pork burrito. The beer is limited but the liquor flows. With only a few choices, and less frequent visitors, no one gives great service. Maybe if I did not wonder what would be said about me when I left, I would come back. Next time, I’ll get that burrito to go… at best

Really the only place without a line. Now I know why. Servers would rather not be bothered with those pesky customers. I swear he lobbed my plate on the counter. No surprise the tip jar was empty. Food isn’t bad just the staff Keep walking. There looks like plenty of other options

So I missed my connection here in DEN so I spent 24 hours in and around this airport, and I know terminal B better than most locals. This Restaurant is on the Mezzanine level, in the middle of the United B Concourse, and has a large sit-down area, with both take-away counter and table service, take your pick. I ordered at the counter and sat where it was less crowded further away from the restaurant. The food is not bad, and some of the items are interestingly different, like the Poblano chicken pesto burrito($ 7.95) But overall it is airport food, it is decent and will keep you satisfied until you are freed from your sequestered existance inside an airport you are only in because you can’t get out! Food, OK, service, meh. I like the flavors at Que Bueno better. which is about 20 gates farther up the councourse!

I had a craving for a burrito last time I was at the airport and swung by Cantina Express upstairs on Concourse B. I quickly ordered a chicken, pinto bean(or black), salsa and cheese(or sour cream — guac is extra) burrito with no rice that cost $ 8. Not only was the tortilla dry and flavorless but the chicken was extremely fatty, gnarly and chunky — not chicken breast like the menu said. I had to throw half away and it turned my stomach. My medium salsa was bland with no heat and the lettuce wilted. I definitely should have finished reading the menu and gone with the veggie burrito because that was way more up my alley, though still probably nothing to write home about. I know it’s just airport fast food but Colorado should really have the burrito thing nailed.

Had breakfast here on the way home. Ordered a breakfast burrito with Chorizo as my breakfast meat, and with their spicy green salsa. Plus a bottle of cold water. The burrito was a nice change of pace from traditional breakfast food, and overall tasty and filling. I could have used a bit more heat — as in spiciness, but i opted to not get off my rear end and ask for more hot sauce. Interestingly enough, I’ve eaten here once before and was not interested in coming back — but what I had for breakfast would lead me to eat here again — at least for Burritos!
