El Rey Cantina Mexican Restaurant

Serving Ellijay since 1989, El Rey Cantina has been a local favorite for authentic Mexican cuisine, handcrafted margaritas, and unforgettable memories. 

For more than three decades, we’ve welcomed families, friends, visitors, and locals alike to gather around great food, cold drinks, and genuine hospitality. From sizzling fajitas and fresh guacamole to our extensive margarita selection and lively cantina atmosphere, every visit is about more than just a meal. It’s about bringing people together. 

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, enjoying dinner with family, meeting friends for drinks, or joining us for one of our events, El Rey Cantina is proud to be a place where traditions are shared and memories are made. 

For over 35 years, we’ve been honored to serve the Ellijay community and look forward to welcoming you through our doors for many years to come.
