Excellent, innovative food. Delicious twists on old favorites. I can't even believe Azteca is in the same category! Bleh!

I love the Sonoran Chicken at Cactus! Always my choice for my birthday dinner. Margaritas are the best and ohhhh the desserts!

You just can't find food like this anywhere else. It's fantastic and the Mango Mojito is by far the BEST cocktail out there. Thank Goodness for Cactus!!!!!!!!

Once I ate at Cactus I will never look at places like Azteca,Mazatlan, or Jalisco the same. The food has imagination and tastes great. I cannot say enough about the menu. I will never eat refried beans again.

Try Cactus for a fresh new look at Mexican. Once you go cactus you will never go back.

Never a disappointment! The best service, fajitas, salsa and cocktails - the only Mexican restaurant I crave so the hour drive is totally worth it!

We have been to both the Kirkland and Alki Cactus' often and they have never let us down! It's always worth the drive from OLYMPIA! Even with the gas prices! :) The food is awesome and the mixed drinks are always made perfectly! We love it. They need to bring it down here to Olympia! Please!
