The food itself was quite interesting. I had the Black Risotto with Cuttlefish, I thought it would be similar to Modo Mio’s Black Ink Pasta… I thought wrong. The risotto was ok, would have be better if cooked a tad longer and had less salt, more flavour. I didn’t see or taste the lemon aioli or dill salsa in the dish which was stated on the menu….

From what I’ve been told, the lambchops were pretty good. Ideally it would have been nicer with a different cut, and steak knives shouldnt have needed to be requested. The beef cheek was nice, almost like those meats which have sat in the slow cooker all day. The dish would have been welcomed during winter, but alas it was begrudgingly eaten whilst we shifted uncomfortably in our seats and our clothes clung to our skin….

Despite the disappointing experience, the service was really up to standard and I’m willing to give Cantina another shot…. just not with their current dinner menu, and when the weather is a lot cooler.
