CANTINA DEL MAR - Kankakee (IL)

5 /5 Sandra Aguilar: Food was on time, it was great I especially love mejillones and chapuzon with a margarita. Love the place!!!

2 /5 Lady T Tee: It’s my birthday and my friend took me to this place. He knows that I love seafood. We started with the oysters. They seemed fresh. It was our first time trying them. He loved it. I didn’t. Then I ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp popper (best way to describe them). I had to make myself chew it up and swallow it down. Not a fan! The rice was delicious! As well as the mini garlic bread (enough for 2 bites). My friend agrees too. My friend ordered fried tilapia and he wasn’t a fan. Absolutely no flavor. Just fried the fish. He ordered a margarita. He liked it. I wasn’t a fan. The bill came and it was over $100 including the tip. I just can’t see myself coming back. Portions are small. Food is not good. Also a lady was standing on a chair at her table. It looks like they were celebrating. There’s a time and place for everything. But the owner didn’t mind. We ended up going to Texas Roadhouse.

5 /5 Amber Marcoux: Drinks and Food are DELICIOUS! Brand new to Kankakee Area but exactly what Kankakee has been missing. I will definitely Return.

5 /5 James Johanek: Went for dinner with my friend and we were impressed. They give you a little bit of ceviche to try when you sit down. I had oysters here, and they were very fresh, properly cleaned and prepared. Empanadas were ok 7/10 just seemed a little too soft, not very crunchy. Tried the chicharrone de pescado , good sized portion very delicious. Owner, server, and bartender were all great. I will say it’s a little expensive but the quality of the food, the atmosphere, and attentive staff made it well worth it. I will be returning to try the red snapper. There is no solid seafood places in a 45 minute radius so I’m happy they are here!

3 /5 Sylvia Perez: I would say it’s a little pricey for the amount of food giving and Langostinos served on small plate, Very good food rice was good small portion looks like the just threw a spoon full on plate presentation could of been better. I been to plenty of nice restaurants. I don’t think this was really worth what was giving. Service was ok and but then waitress came with the bill asked me how much i was going to give her for the tip I was stunned like who does that. I understand they new to the area that’s not how you get tips. I say a no to this place unless you go for drinks bartender makes the best drinks not sure his name but give him 5 stars. Would not go again only for drinks.The advertising shown on FB was wrong was changed full price.
