What People Are Saying
from Google"Wow. Outstanding fresh, made to order, tacos. Very impressed with the quality of the food. They have various signature tacos. The chorizo tacos were delicious. The chips and salsa and queso was tasty! Loved the atmosphere of the restaurant. The back area had a nice bar that Rich explained had 12 beers on tap and a strong selection of bourbon and whiskeys. The service was excellent as Marita was friendly and knowledgeable on all the menu items. The Canteen Cheeseburger were two smashburgers with a secret mayonnaise based sauce - so good! Another great taco was the Valentina Fried-Chicken taco with a garlic buttermilk sauce. The chicken strip was topped with pickled jalapenos and pickled red onions. Wow, what a wonderful flavor. Compliments to Sean the cook. There is a small outside seating area. This place is in the heart of downtown Columbia (The District). I finished the meal with a warm brownie and ice cream drizzled in chocolate and caramel sauces. Highly recommend 44 Canteen."
"Had such an enjoyable experience here tonight at 44 Canteen. Our server was super attentive (we forgot her name but she had beautiful tattoos on her right arm) and made sure we liked our food. My friend and I are from out of town and it was our first time in Columbia. The burgers were phenomenal. I had the Korean Burger and it was tasty and fresh, highly recommended! The shrimp tacos are tender and made to order. Cannot wait to come back again."
"Busy weekend we stopped based on a local recommendation. Very pleasent and open environment. We got a table immediately after being very pleasantly greeted. The waitress asked for a drink order promptly. We had water and ordered hamburger plates. The kitchen was open and visible from the dining room. The food smells were amazing and amped up our hunger. The food arrived in a reasonable time frame. The food was presented very simple and easy to see the very fresh additions to the hamburger. The food was so delicious and good quality. The bacon was cooked perfect and not greasy at all. The pickles crisp and fresh. The burger was cooked perfect. We didnt order any sides. Definitely very fresh well prepared food. Staff appeared happy and it showed with great service. There is a small bar in the rear of the resturant. There was a few TVs with sports and a small group sitting at the bar. Very unique"
"44 Canteen is, simply put, fantastic. Don’t miss out on some of the best tacos in town. The disco fries are incredible. Don’t sleep on the nachos. The bar is well stocked with tasty drinks on tap, friendly faces, and well-made handcrafted cocktails."
"Food was 10/10 delicious and flavorful. Service was good. The vegetarian tacos were some of the best ive ever had! Restaurant could have you a good deep clean (dusty light fixtures, needs new paint) but it wasn't dirty by any means."
