This place is always good. The service is fast. Food is warm. Had two tacos lunch special. Crunchy chicken tacos. Asked for salsa verde and the spicier red salsa and mixed all three together. Put that stuff on everything. It was good. I don't come here expecting anything other than good California style Mexican food and they always deliver. Want spicier salsa or cholulu, chiles or salsa verde just ask and they'll get it for you. Ask for chile verde mixed with the red sauce it's great too. read more

Came for breakfast and the cafe de olla. The service was good, they kept the cafe filled. The chips were warm, the salsa was watered down. I ordered the Chicharrones con Chile Verde, the chicharrones were really hard, the potatoes were definitely small frozen ones and the beans were not hot. This was a disappointment but the Café was good. read more

My grandson and I went for an early dinner during their happy hour on Saturday. They have some great choices on their happy hour food menu but we decided to order off the regular menu the three item combo, he had two cheese enchiladas with rice and beans and I asked our waitress to put the 3rd item, a chile relleno, on a separate plate for me. They have the best chile rellenos! I also ordered their loaded bloody mary, which was fabulous. They also have some special cocktails for saint patrick's day which looked fun. I ordered some green salsa on the side too. I love their green salsa it has little pieces of pork in it from the chili verde and they serve it warm. Our waitress was great.I wish I had got her name. They were super busy with a few parties going on and the happy hour crowd. read more

We love this place, always our go-to spot for great food, good drinks, and good service. We've been here several times and have always enjoyed visiting. Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon for a quick bite. I decided to try something different so I went with a carne asada chimichanga. Honestly it wasn't great. Not only was the chimichanga not "stuffed" enough, but the meat was also a bit tough. There's always next time. Secret tip...psst. ask for green sauce with the chips.) I love chips and salsa but this is a game changer! read more

La Cabana Restaurant - Carne asada chimichanga. Eh good not great. - Mexican Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I felt La Cabana deserved a new review. This place is a regular of ours. We are probably here about once a week. They are consistent in their service and quality of food. The speed in which food comes out of their kitchen is always impressive. Some of my favorite dishes include: carne asada torta, quesabirria taco plate, steak taco salad, and most recently their chilaquiles with salsa verde. Oh and they still have the best house margarita IMO. read more

One of our Friend's Favorite spots, so we have been in a few times. It's across town for us, so we don't come in regularly. This visit was on July 4th so not much business. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. Decor is warm Mexican Homestead feel. I love a traditional looking place. I liked my Chicken fajitas. Everything was cooked well with nice sized portions. Hubby would have liked his Chili Colorado with a more spicy kick. He enjoys the burn. Had a nice Don Julio 1942 Margarita, and got to keep the cup and little bottle. Chips and salsa were fresh and tasty. read more

Three of us had lunch there recently; previously I have eaten there many years ago. We had great, friendly service from the staff. We were quickly seated and served since we arrived at 11:30AM and the "lunch crowd" were not there yet. The food was pretty good; what you would typically hope for although the portions seemed small for the prices. The booths are adequate for 4 adults but the area we were seated in seemed compact and fairly quiet. We would eat there again if in that part of town. read more

Went or a holiday meeting staff was very attentive even set out heaters for the back room for us it was nice

My Favorite place to have Mexican food in town. From the food to the service everything is perfect. It's always like having dinner with family every time we go. Also for some reason the BEST pancakes as well! I have had almost everything from the enchiladas to the burgers. I'm always pleased. read more

I definitely enjoy the ambiance of the restaurant, which is wonderful. The service is also amazing and the people are usually wonderful here. The food is kind of hit and miss, and for that reason I have to give it 4 stars. Last time I went I had the chicken fried steak and to be honest, I didn't finish it because it was not very good. I've had other food from them in the past and it's been good so I definitely will go again! read more

Hadn't been here in a while so thought we would give it another try. Everything about this place is just meh. The food, the atmosphere, the service. The place is not cool in the summer and the food is rather small portion for the price. Personally, I think you can get better Mexican food elsewhere in town for a lower cost. Don't think we will be back. read more

Called to ask about happy hour. I like it when someone who answers the phone sounds attractive and full of life. She had the information available M-F 3-7 (not am), Wknds 10-5, domestic drafts, international drafts, house margaritas, I thanked her and said I was searching for a new place and if people utilized the bar area at times (women, not 20's but ladies) and she said at times yes. Btw late specials 7-closing 20oz drafts. Good to know- nice for me to believe in a fantasy if I am out and about and want to have a quick drink. read more

This place was busy but the service is fast, friendly & food comes out quick! The food was bomb! We ordered the Tostadas divorciadas (best of both worlds) Chile Colorado & chile verde! It was amazing. The menudo was good, my hubby ordered the chicharrones with egg for breakfast & let me tell you...they tasted homemade! The chefs got it down in the kitchen. Our friends ordered the 3 item combos and all 3 items on each were good too. Highly recommend this place. Very delicious & it's authentic homemade Mexican food. The cucumber margarita was refreshing as well! Great service guys! Thank you! read more

DISCLAIMER: if you have a party of 8 or more an 18% gratuity will be added to your bill for you. I went with a party of 12, and they said they could only split the bill in 3... so with those 3 checks and the MANDATORY 18% gratuity they ended up leaving themselves a little more than a 50$ tip!!!! (: We were celebrating a graduation and were looking for Mexican food in town. It's pretty inside but the food was FAR from authentic. Vallartas Mexican food is a lot better in comparison which is sad considering Vallarta is not even the best. For the prices of the dishes you'd expect a lot more. We would've had a much better experience at a taco la villa... We did our best to enjoy the experience but here are some of the commentaries: They had chips and salsa at the tables before taking our orders but the salsa was not spicy and not really like your typical Mexican salsa, it was flavorless to say the least. Two of the people in the party tried chile verde and chilaquiles which they say had no flavor and absolutely no spice. I myself asked for "El Dorado Tilapia" but it was not at all a fried fish... it was a bread crumbed fish with no flavor, they also had a bread crumbed fish on the menu so when I saw el dorado I really expected the fish to come fried, it reminded me of the frozen ready to cook tilapias you buy in store, I had to add lemon to it to make it semi good. The person who ordered the carne asada also said it tasted extremely plain, and it came with no salsa, just a single jalapeño. The beans and tortillas were so plain and not really what you'd expect when eating at a Mexican restaurant.. the only good dish for the entire table seemed to be the quesadilla. The waitresses pretty much took our orders and barely visited the table. At the table there was no salsas or condiments only salt and pepper. I ordered the churro ice cream which was pretty small for a shareable dish, and I had to remind the waitress to bring it out. The other person at the table who ordered ice cream had to go to front desk to ask for it because they forgot about it. When we got the checks we were not expecting the tips to be added for us, the waitresses failed to let us know about the mandatory gratuity BEFORE we ordered. Everyone at the table agreed this place is not worth our money or time, definitely not returning here again and don't recommend this place for anyone hoping for real Mexican food. read more

Went in tonight and had the absolute best service i couldn't even tell you in how long! The food was amazing and again the service! It took them 2 minutes to get our drinks, food was spectacular. They have happy hour till 7 and i got street tacos for $2.75 that were loaded with meat! We also got a Molcajete trio that was fantastic! From someone that ran restaurants for years, hats off to you guys! Keep up the great work! This will be our weekly spot! read more

Another day of running around- skipping lunch - from 11am until 4pm. We were hongree! La Cabaña Restaurant was on the way home. What a delightful surprise to learn we were just in time for Happy Hour! We ordered 2 House margaritas to start, then checked out the menu. We landed on the La Cabaña Burrito Ahogado. ($14.99). A burrito filled with unique red Chile verde, rice & beans inside and topped with zesty red sauce. There was sour cream on the side. Along with the chips and salsa, the serving size would definitely fill us both up. Our server, Eduardo, was friendly, pleasant and efficient. The food came quickly. They brought a extra plate to split the dish. Throughout the meal, Eduardo was there if we needed him. I would have liked the zesty sauce to be a little "zestier". You can probably ask for this. They are very accommodating. The meat was tender and lean and very flavorful. To sum it up, La Cabaña offers good, food, awesome service, and nice value in a comfortable atmosphere. You can go wrong. read more

For years La Cabana has been our "Go To" please for morning Menudo , and its usually pretty good, but this morning it was extremely disappointing... most of the dish was Hominy and what there was of tripe,was as small as the Hominy... we will likely never order this dish again.. read more

Great service great food. I just gave it a 4 because of the lack of seasoning on the rice and beans.

Had happy hour last night and I am happy to report that they have great deals and the food was delicious! The asada fries were crispy and loaded with a ton of asada and yummy toppings! The chorizo bean dip came out hot and bubbly and was really good! They also have taco specials - but filled up on those 2 that we didn't have a chance to order. Definitely will try that on my next trip. Happy hour ends at 7pm. Great service! read more

Have been going to La Cabaña for years. Food always spot on. Definitely recommend this restaurant reasonably priced food service a one.

Food was exquisite and the service on point!!! I will definitely go back again for the carnes en su jugo and the sangría.

Yummmyyyy good, great staff, super nice people here! Fast service!! I love it, I come with family often.

This place is really good. We went for breakfast and forgot to take photos. :( My boyfriend had manchaka and I had an omelette and a side of French toast. I usually can't eat breakfast or even lunch at a Mexican restaurant so it was good that I could have quite a bit here. (I'm vegetarian). Everyone was nice. Location was close. read more

The service here is pretty consistent and great. The vibe is relaxing and we always enjoy our nights out at this spot. The chips and salsa always hit as well as their drinks. The albondigas were yummy and the asada fries were bomb. The chimichanga was my partners and of course I snagged a bite. It was good (shredded chicken). We love coming here when we can't decide on what to eat read more

First time trying this restaurant and it was ok. The customer service was great. The wait time wasn't long to be seated. Plenty of seating including patio seating. The ambiance was also nice and family oriented. The food looked good but was a bit bland. Lacking flavor and seasoning in my opinion. I Had to use the salsa to spice up my meal to get the taste I was looking for. Other than that this place was ok. read more

We met up with some friends at La Cabana Restaurant. It wasn't terribly busy on a weekday night in the middle of the week. The employees were nice and gave good recommendations to our party. The food was good with huge portions! Their carne asada was good but be warned that their spicy sauce is actually spicy! We'd come back if we're in the area again. read more
