We were seated and our orders taken very rapidly. Excellent service. Complimentary chips and salsa were very good. We ordered two apps: some queso and it had a good flavor but was pretty watery and chunky guacamole which was awesome! I had the El Comal and a raspberry margarita. The El Comal had beef, chicken, shrimp, chorizo, and pork ribs all on a sizzling fajita platter with green onions and a nopolito. There were 4 of us. We all really enjoyed our meals. Our total for 4 people and 2 drinks was $132 before tip. I would definitely eat her again! read more

Delicious food, good service, atmosphere and prices. Located downtown Martin, TN. It's your average Mexican food but it's tasty, quick and the salsa is yummy! You are not going to find real authentic Mexican food that's super fresh in this area. I have eaten here several times and it is pretty good. I have never had to wait for seating. read more

The customer service at La Cabana has gone aggressively down hill. I have never had such unpleasant experiences here but the last one was enough for us to never return. Both cashiers were incredibly rude, I waited in one line for over 10 minutes only for the cashier to refuse to check us out and then making us move to a second long line to which we were greeted by another rude cashier. Our food was made incorrectly three different times requiring us to make two trips back to the restaurant and then them asking to return a THIRD time to try to get the order correct and then refused to refund us for the incorrect item... both cashiers were rude giving eye rolls, attitude, and utter arrogance. read more

La Cabana Mexican Restaurant - Lunch Chimi - Mexican Near Me - Martin, Tennessee

We go here often and service is usually spot on. But this past week we went and I ordered chicken, cheese and rice. My meal comes and at first I did not realize that I had no rice. We went to pay and we have the charger disconnect card which is 10% off excluding alcohol. The main guy there took my card and coupon and gave me receipt after I asked for it. He did not want to and come to fine out he did not give me my 10% off. So pay attention to your bill read more

Service is very slow, not very good customer service and THATS only because it's so small

Ok. I am super picky about my restaurant experience. This place hits five stars on all three important factors. Great service and atmosphere! Great beer prices! Great food! I never leave a five star review unless a place deserves it. Will definitely be back! read more

We got here around 11:30 for lunch. When we walked in the place smelled of cleanliness and we were greeted immediately and seated. Our water was kept full and the chips were hot! A huge serving soup and it was delicious! Very fresh vegetables simple chicken. I will definitely be back! read more

La Cabana Mexican Restaurant - Chicken tortilla soup! Very delicious! Great service and very clean!! - Mexican Near Me - Martin, Tennessee

My husband and I ate here during the Soybean Festival while waiting on a concert to begin-SWITCHFOOT! The restaurant is right on the downtown main street surrounded by cute little shops. We both got a bean burrito with rice and beans and NO CHEESE on any of it-vegan and of course, chips and salsa. The food wasn't anything special, just "ok". Service was fine. When it was time to pay, we had to walk all the way in back of the restaurant to find where the cashier was located. You can enter the restaurant from the back of the restaurant, too, so maybe that is the reason the cashier is located back there. Usually at other places, you can pay at your table or there is a place to pay near the front door. No big deal though! read more

I have been to Valerio's restaurant many times for over 20 years and he is an excellent OwnerlManager. If there is s problem just call on Valerio for the solution. He works with the right attitude for complete satisfaction. His food entree is excellent and deliciously prepared. Jesus, Valerio brother, is just as committed to good quality, price and service as Valerio. My vote is 5 stars! Gary Boyett read more

Very good food when, or if, it arrives. When you ask your waiter about the status of your food and he says he is the only waiter on duty, it is one thing. However, as more customers come in, get seated, and served, as well as more waiters become visible, men and women in black shirts with the La Cabana logo on front and back, for your waiter to still give you he-is-the-only-one excuse 40 minutes after ordering, is ridiculous. That the food is good is affirmed by how long this restaurant has existed in this desirable piece of real estate. However, glancing at reviews on Facebook as well as here, this glacial speed of service underscores the issue that receiving your order is more a matter of IF than WHEN. read more

Very nice venue very clean nice large bathrooms fair prices large serving drinks were exceptional have top shelf liquor if desired prefixes salsa right location very friendly staff read more

Oh my gosh. I ordered a taco salad. It was runny and as I sat there drinking what was supposed to be a margarita on the rocks that tasted like lemonade with NO tequila, a roach ran across the floor, I pointed to it to the waiter. He stepped on it and left it on the floor. Guess what folks, there are roaches in all your food too! STAY AWAY! Crap food and bugs! Shut em down! read more

During my lunch break I called to place an order. The gentleman whom answered the call was very rude, arrive to pick my order up & the two gentleman I saw once entering the restaurant didn't speak. The price I paid didn't match the price on the menu. The chips were awful, as if they were just sitting in a bowl of oil. I wouldn't suggest this restaurant. Total upset! read more

Anytime we come back to visit family we have to stop by. Must try Baja bowl. Salsa has just enough heat. read more

La Cabana Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Martin, Tennessee

I went it and waited for a long time to even get a menu. Some of the food I received was bland and oily. But I did like the way it looked and my waiter was very nice. read more

Worst experience yesterday. The food is great. I'll Gove it that but the whole staff that helped us was just flat out rude. Was not welcomed at all. Our waiter took forever just to come to our table for drinks then took a while again to get our food order. What made me mad the most is when I asked for a box he brought it to me but didn't even look at the table when he shoved the box in my face. read more

Agree. Food is standard Mexican fare and drinks are good. I love the inter fountain courtyard, but... service is slow and poorly attended. Not sure, but I think they're in back checking their phones. I think this is just the nature of people in West Tennessee. You can't get them to work most times, or they've never been trained on service or quality. Not affordable for college students. Don't drink and go back on campus!!!!! Being intoxicated on or off campus is prohibited by the university. (Welcome to the South!) read more

Seafood burrito was delicious! Our waiter was soft spoken but very attentive. Would come back to try other items on their menu!

First off the food was not horrible, but let's say service is. Our waiter did not get anything right we ordered an appetizer but he brought it to the table one minute ahead of our meal. But two attractive young women came in and sat he was all up on them right away still not ever checking in on us, or even checking on a table that had not even ordered yet. What got me he did not care the two girls but a table of two males he carded big mistake if the ABC ever spot check you bam liquor licence gone. Like I said good ok. Service bad, and, bad and one more bad.oh well we will try the other mexican joints in town next time. read more

Definitely my favorite Mexican restaurant around! The food is wonderful. The staff is friendly. They have good prices. Overall atmosphere is great. Have been here numerous times and will continue to come back! read more

La Cabana Mexican Restaurant - Chicken Baja Bowl - Mexican Near Me - Martin, Tennessee

Wow things have changed. Service for starters was terrible the waiter didn't want to wait on us took over ten minutes to order. The food was OK but I've had much better for cheaper and more of it. Their portions were small and the taco salad was soggy. Pick another place. read more

Ok first let me stay this review is not based on one experience at this restaurant... And the service is terrible. I know we have had Angel (what I hear is the owners son) as a waiter at least 4-5 times this past year and he act like its a crime to wait on you. So last night I went in with a group of nine and the waiter (who I don't have his name) started off forgot the lemons in every ones tea(no a big deal right). But then my drink was empty (most of ours was) and still no refills or lemons. We waited at least 15mins before we had our drink order then another 10mins before the food order and it was about 45mins after that before we got our food. Then our good wasn't correct. Long story short we tired and tired to get the waiters attention and gave up and just ate the food. Drinks and salsa and chip all went empty most of the night and if it wasn't for Tiffany they would have because I think our waiter just gave up. I will not be back... read more

Pretty good Mexican food. I had the enchiladas supreme and it was good. Others had the taco salad and it needed more lettuce. The large drafts were large My one dissapoitement was they.didnt have Tecate beer. read more

Awesome place to eat drink and be merry. Staff is extremely polite and helpful with your order. Love this place

Eaten here on multiple occasions. The food is standard Mexican fair, but nothing that will blow your hair back. It can be bland at times and you are running the risk that your food will be underwhelming. It'll get your belly full, but won't be a meal you'll remember. read more

Service was slow and inattentive. Food was ok. Salsa and chips were the best part of the meal. Finally figured out that at the very back of the restaurant is an entrance with a cash register otherwise, I might still be waiting for my check. We parked in the front, but didn't want to sit in the bar which really confused everyone. read more

I live in Florida for 18 years, so I am a little picky on Mexican food. This my favorite mexican restaurant in Martin, but it isn't extraordinary. The salsa is OK, but it is pureed, and I prefer mine more chunky, they do have AWESOME fajitas, but you have to pay for extra tortillas (they only give you 2 small ones). I do not like their chimichangas (which is my favorite burrito type food...usually). their queso blanco is yummy, but their grouund beef in general is dry and flavorless, so stick to the chicken read more

My family and I came in here and ordered our drinks. We kept waiting and about 40-45 minutes later we got our drinks. Absolutely ridiculous! If they are short on staff then hire people or something. Waiting for refills on drinks is a nightmare. We didn't get to order our food until about an hour into our visit. We ordered and still waited about 30 minutes. Ideal to the average wait time on food but the biggest issue was they didn't even get half our order right! Which in my opinion yeah they make mistakes but we have told the staff 3 times we were ready and still they didn't take our order. When people come into a restaurant they typically probably spend an hour and a half there eating. We have spent a total of 2 hours and still have one waiting to get his food. Not good at all! If you want to come here you could but expect the bare minimum. read more

This place is great! It is kind of expensive for a college student like me but every once and a while it is a great treat!

First...we came in the back door (to the bar) because we didn't know there was another one and no one directed us elsewhere (they just stared at us) so I finally figure out "oh we have to go to the front." So we walked through the restaurant to the front and say we have 2 and a half because we had our toddler with us. Maybe I should start by saying we had our autistic 2.5 year old with us. Anyway, he was already upset because he couldn't sit in the giant booth in the bar area and then he saw the water fountain...so he was having a meltdown. We asked if we could be seated near the water fountain and kind of away from where all the people were and she said "well we only have one waiter...so no." Ok, little snippy, but that's fine...so we sit down and he's loud. No one is talking, there's no music playing, you can hear a pin drop. So, we've now been inside this restaurant for 10+ minutes. We sit at the table wrangling the toddler for another 5 or so minutes eating the chips and salsa they've brought. We both have mentioned to each other that the chips and salsa were not that great at all. Fast forward...a lady comes walking very fast up to the table out of breath and mumbles some words...I say "I'm sorry what?" And she VERY rudely looks me in my eyes and says "DRINKS!!" like I should be ashamed of myself for not being able to decipher her words. My face needed deliverance. And I chose very nice words and said "ok...you're right maybe we should go somewhere else...that was very rude...this is a joke." I didn't raise my voice. And I didn't curse. I was very upset with this place, though. However, I am glad we left because there were at least 10 tables full of people and none of them had food yet...just chips. And that doesn't surprise me considering how long it took someone to ask us for our drink order. We won't be returning...so I won't be able to tell you how the food is, but the chips were stale and the salsa was horrendous. read more

Good service and the food is pretty good. I personally like to go somewhere with an older crowd, but that's just me.

I would like to start this review with my initial impression of the restaurant and its atmosphere. It's truly unique and unlike any other Mexican restaurant I have personally seen. This being said atmosphere only goes so far. The food is average or a little better to other Mexican restaurants in the Martin area which I am please with. However the biggest problem with this restaurant is the service. The waiters/waitresses are very slow about seating, refills, and checks. I would be more understanding if the restaurant was packed or short staffed. But when I can visually see my waiter sitting down and using his cell phone when I need service , there's something wrong. These are the things that can ruin a good restaurant and the management needs to understand these issues. read more

Good service, sitting at the bar is more enjoyable as well as a faster way to get served it seems like. Randy is by far the best waiter. Also great food. Would recommend. read more

Its a sad excuse for mexican food. service was slow and kinda rude. food is expensive for the plate size you get.

Had a great meal here with the family last night. The decor was nicely done. The booths and tables were clean and comfortable. Our server Jose was thorough and attentive. I had the shrimp fajitas. The shrimp were cooked well and were appropriately spicy. There were plenty of vegetables as well. The rice and beens were good. The guacamole was fresh. My husband had a chicken tacos platter which were also tasty. All meals were hot and fresh. The quest dip was loved by all including my nine month old. We will definitely be back for more!! read more

When I'm away I miss eating at La Cabana! It is the first place I go to eat when I get home! Great service, fresh food, reasonable prices.

Best place in Martin to eat!! The food is great and well priced. The service was great and quick. The balcony was a great addition. You can sit outside and enjoy burritos, tacos, chimichangas, and a vast variety of other foods. Definitely going back! read more

As I read the reviews that came before me, I wonder how some folks gripe about service when it's obvious there is a language barrier in front of you. Remember your there for the food. You can't eat service so your there for the food and there is plenty of good food to be had. The chips were warm and the salsa was a blended mix with a bit of a friendly kick. I went for the Chimichanga's and was not disappointed. Go in from the street at 305 and walk into a sports bar. Around back is the front door to the restaurant. Altogether it ties neatly together. So go there for the food and don't fret about what type of service that you may or may not get. read more
