About this venue

Editor's Take: Licha's Cantina is a heartfelt tribute to 'Licha', the matriarch of the family. Set in a charming converted bungalow, it offers an authentic soul that is rare to find. Known for its 'Antojitos' and high-quality agave spirits, it’s a premier destination for those seeking a warm and vibrant Mexican social scene. The shaded front patio is an East Austin staple.

Licha's Cantina is a popular Mexican restaurant in Austin specializing in artisanal street food, house-infused tequilas, and traditional family recipes in a relaxed setting.
