Santa Monica Cantina

American, Tacos, Mexicain, After work
Santa Monica Cantina – Cali-Mex Cool in the Heart of Soho Soho gets a splash of West Coast sunshine with Santa Monica Cantina, a bold new American-Mexican hangout nestled right by the Central escalator. Founded by hospitality veteran Eddy Bundro (ex-Roosevelt Hotel, LA), this two-floor cantina blends vibrant flavours with a laid-back party spirit. By day, it’s family-friendly and fun. By night, it’s all about spicy margaritas, great music and good vibes. The mesquite-smoked dishes give everything from tacos to wings a deep, satisfying hit of smoky flavour. Start with creamy queso, fiesta fries or crispy chicken strips, then dive into signature Baja fish tacos, juicy burritos or the standout Santa Monica burger with garlic fries. Healthier options include loaded salads with punchy Chipotle dressing – and yes, vegetarians are welcome too. Sip cocktails at the bar counter or tuck into tacos at a cosy booth. But this cantina isn’t just about food – it’s a community hub. With 2,000 square feet of space, it hosts quiz nights, stand-up comedy, and live sports screenings. Whether you’re a local or an expat looking for a bit of LA in HK, Santa Monica Cantina brings the energy.
