Editorial Review for Cactus Pear Restaurant – by BJ Parker

In Short
The original paintings by local artists combined with customary music enhance the southwestern theme inside this restaurant. Large tables and booths fill the room, setting up an intimate atmosphere for dates, mid-sized parties or families. The menu includes traditional Mexican, as well as spicy pastas and seafood dishes and creative twists like the signature Cactus Pear fajitas, available with tofu, eggplant, portabella or pork in addition to the usual chicken and beef.

The salsa is better than any other Mexican restaurant anywhere. I've never ordered anything disappointing. The owner is very pleasant and remembers us. The food is always delicious and pretty. Service is great. It always seems very reasonably priced to me, but I'm not a student anymore. The restaurant is not brightly lit as it also has a bar. I personally really enjoy that for a relaxed meal.

Pros: Salsa, great food, service

Cons: None

4 Star Rating: Recommended

What a great place to visit. I went with a group of people and the waitress, although shorthanded, did great... I have to mention that they must have their Margaritas on a great work out plan because boy were they STRONG, if you order one keep it to a small cause they will knock your socks off!!!
