We ordered a takeaway for seven people last night and both the service and food were absolutely top notch. We ordered six pizzas and a chicken wrap along with a number of sides and not only was everything available exactly at the time we asked for (on a busy Saturday), but it was delicious and good value for money. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting Dunoon and looking for tasty food to satisfy a group.

51st State so friendly. Great with the kids. Steak delicious. Will return ASAP.Above review was left previously - this time we were downstairs in La Cantina who hosted a wonderful pizza and milkshake lunch for my daughter's 10th birthday. We couldn't have asked for a better experience; we were warmly welcomed, so well looked after and the food was delicious as always. Hugely grateful to all - Management, Service and Kitchen - for such a fab afternoon and happy memories.Kid-friendliness: Kind and patient staff.

Great friendly staff and very prompt. The food was lovely , I had the chicken burrito and the serving size was generous. The menu had a good variety of options too, overall 100% worth the reasonable price.

Absolutely fantastic meal here. Visiting the area and we decided on trying here due to the excellent reviews. Totally lived up to the reviews we read. Loved the atmosphere and American theme, food was excellent, service was top notch and the owners son was really friendly, we loved chatting to him after our meal and hearing the history of the place. If we come back to the area we wouldn't hesitate on coming back here, well done all!!

Very impressed with our first time eating in La Cantina. Waitress with a smile, tasty food, and an excellent band to dance to after our meal. Perfect Saturday night. ?

So a very mixed experience. The first day I had scampi and chips. It was great and I'd go 5 stars. A few days later I went for a PLAIN cheeseburger and it was a disaster. I expected the burger to be plain but it had been made with herbs and onion and garlic powder so it definitely wasn't plain. Don't advertise something and then serve something else. I was really disappointed that day.Parking: It's located in the main street so it's difficult to find parking near it. It's best to park in a lot and walk the couple of minutes.

If you’re looking for a decent American style pizza crust you’ll find it at 51st State. We were ecstatic to discover the crust they make by hand is chewy, crispy, light and flavourful. Also have had the Mac and Cheese which is huge and very tasty. The onion rings are battered not breaded but they use real sliced onions. Next time I’ll be ordering a strawberry milkshake to see if its as thick as American shakes. Will definitely be getting our pizza fix from 51st State from now on.

Nice cantina style food on a quiet Sunday evening. The ribs were good and the fries were sensational. Friendly staff.

We had a lovely meal here at 51st State on a Friday night. We would recommend booking your table as it gets quite busy especially at weekends. I had the Chicken wrap with sweet chilli sauce chips and salad which was good. My partner had the smothered chicken and chips which was very good indeed. We had a few drinks and also the sticky toffee pudding for dessert and this was equally as good as the other food we had. We have been here quite a few times and would most definitely come back in the future.Vegetarian options: YesKid-friendliness: Yes

Came here for my birthday dinner with three friends, menu has everything on it, from burgers and pasta to tex mex, we decided to have starters which arrived in no time, they were great sized portions very well presented and delicious!!, our mains arrived not long after we had finished eating our starters and I think we all had a OMG I’ll never eat all that moment, the portion size of the mains were huge, the food was piping hot and delicious, we all tucked in but all thinking maybe a starter wasn’t such a good idea, needless to say we were unable to finish our mains, as much as we wanted too we were full, The staff are lovely, friendly and chatted away and nothing was a bother. For 4 of us incl 2 glasses of wine and 2 soft drinks the bill came to just under £90, well impressed.I definitely recommend you come here for dinner when your visiting Dunoon you will not be disappointed, the only difficult bit is choosing a main course and whether you want a starter or dessert.I would recommend the steak burrito, or the Cajun chicken, or the Mac N cheese or the chilli burger, all very delicious and very filling.
