About
Mexican Restaurant
Ever since our opening in 2013 Lucha Cantina has worked toward our mission of bringing people together.
As you have experienced for yourself, 2020 changed things up a bit and for us that meant adjusting our mission. While bringing people together remains our unifying goal, where that happens has become less important. Whether you are gathering around one of our tables with your family and friends or whether you are bringing everyone together around your kitchen island, we want Lucha to be a part of that experience.
As you can see, we are doing our best to change with these changing times. That said, not everything here is changing. Our kitchen is still continuing to create weekly features with as much passion as they produce your favorite menu items that we've had since day one. Our bar offers a great selection of tequilas, wines and beers to compliment our menu.
We look forward to seeing you here (or curbside) soon.
