Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I was a little surprised at how good the experience was at Cancun. It's a very festive place with a strong, colorful atmosphere. The service is outstanding. This has to be one of the top restaurants in Oal Ridge. For as many times as I have been to Oal Ridge, this is the first time I have actually been impressed with a place. The carnitas in Verde sauce are pretty darn tasty. The salsas rich in flavor. I will for sure visit on my next trip. Besides all the food I tasted being delicious, the service is beyond good. That can make up for so much, but when the food is good, it makes a visit memorable.

If you're familiar with Oak Ridge at all, I went to Cancun for lunch on a Friday at 12:30 and there were only three other tables in use, however this didn't bother me at all as the plant staff is usually off on Fridays. Was seated right away and had the standard chips and salsa on the table before I could even get comfortable. The salsa was some of the best I've had at a restaurant in quite some time, seems like there's may have been a pinch of sugar added but just enough to cut the acid from the tomatoes. My server came around, and I ordered the lunch portion chicken chimichanga with grilled jalapeños inside. I try to order the same thing at the Mexican restaurants for my first time for comparison. I would say this is an average sized chicken chimichanga, but what really set it apart is that it seemed like instead of grilling the jalapeños and adding them into the chimichunga they grilled them, then added them to the chicken to finish cooking as the flavor from the jalapeño was throughout the entire chimichunga, and it was amazing. It, of course, came with the usual rice, lettuce, Pico de gallo, refried beans, a small amount of shredded cheese, guac, and a generous portion of queso blanco covering the chimichanga. All in all, Cancun Mexican Grill and Bar #3 is an excellent choice for a quick, excellently priced ($10.95 with water, before tip) lunch in the Oak Ridge area.
