If you are a fan of Mexican Food, you will love this news! Cantina Real will be taking the place of American Farmhouse Tavern and Dining Hall, and making Manhattan Beach its second home. Cantina Real is a well- known for their margaritas, great chips and salsa, and for people that have a sweet tooth, Cantina’s deep fried ice-cream. Cantina Real has been around for approximately 50 years and has been owned and operated by Real Blias, 82, and his adult son Steve and daughter Joline.

According to a manager at Cantina Real, the expansion to Manhattan Beach will commence in couple years and will include new additions and/or changes to the menu. Blias and his son Steve will manage the new Manhattan Beach location, while Real’s daughter Joline, will stay in Hermosa. There are also plans in the works to remodel the patio area at the Hermosa Beach location in the near future. Owner of American Farmhouse, Orlando Novoa will be relocating to his unique food fare to San Luis Obispo and also embarking on plans to help open a new resturant in the nea future. Although locals are sad to American Farmhouse leave, they are just as happy to welcome Cantina Real to the 90266.
