The drinks were definitely strong and well-made, which we really appreciated. Our server was very friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. The atmosphere was one of my favorite parts it had a warm, cozy Spanish vibe that made the whole experience feel relaxed and inviting. The music added to it perfectly and gave the restaurant a really nice energy. Overall, it's a great spot for a casual dinner, a date night, or just when you're craving good Mexican food in a comfortable setting. We'll definitely be coming back.

My wife had the 2 Chiles Rellenos combo. She said that her meal was excellent. We're from California and have been lamenting not having a go to spot for Mexican food. Not anymore. We both agreed that we've found a new favorite.

Friends recommended La Cabanita to us, so we came here on a Saturday at lunch time. Happily, it was…read morenot crowded. We sat at a corner table and were served by a pleasant male waiter. My wife ordered a chile rellano and an enchilda. I ordered camarones diabla, one of my favorite dishes. My wife had a coke and I had water. My wife really enjoyed her food, and there was plenty of it, as she brought some home. In my dish, the shrimp were nice and plump, which was great, and the sauce was flavorful, though not as good as at another place I frequent. There were small pieces of mushroom, but there were also a lot of strips of onion, which I'm not a fan of. Just my personal taste. They charge $3.50 for a soda, and for that price, my wife asked for a refill to go. She thought our server was perhaps a bit displeased that she made this request, but we feel that it is reasonable, given the price tag for soda that comes from a machine. All in all, we enjoyed our experience at La Cabanita, and will return, we happen to be in the area (we live in Star).

Tiny bar in the corner. Service was great. Caring and quick. Chips and salsa/bean dip were ok. Ordered a side of guacamole which was small and nothing special. Margarita was huge but didn't taste any tequila. Chicken tacos came in that ever so popular, but simple, processed hard shell. Dreaming of the days and places where hard shells are fried fresh and not out of a box..... ho hum. Standard rice and beans. My son had the carne asada burrito. It was huge and he said the carne was good quality. Thumbs up here. Prefer similar places closer to home.

My wife and I stopped in on a Sunday for lunch before heading to church. I would rate them 3.5 stars. One of the problems, and it may be ongoing because my wife experienced it when she came here last, is that the AC does not seem to work well. It is uncomfortably warm, so much so that we opted to sit on the patio, which thankfully had a nice breeze and was in the shade. The service was good enough. I was helped by a young woman that served me well, except she did not seem to hear me well, and I am normally known for a loud voice, though it is very low. She kept missing what I was saying and I ended up feeling like I was practically yelling at her. I told her that my wife wanted a drink but I wanted water, but she charged us for two drinks. I had a Fire Chicken bowl with black beans, rice, cheese, guacamole, and salsa. The chicken was a little chewy but generally flavorful. My wife had the steak taco meal with rice and beans. They don't seem to offer corn tortillas which I would prefer, but her steak was very tender and flavorful. I would probably get that next time. So, all in all I had a good experience, with a small hiccup when ordering, generally good food, but uncomfortable atmosphere due to the AC not working well. I will come here again, though most likely just for takeout.

While we were waiting on friends, the apps we ordered early took forever. This was a theme that would continue through out the afternoon. The food took forever. The tables sat around us ordered after us and were done eating by the time any of ours arrived. They forgot one of the burritos ordered and tried to claim it's because they ran out of that specific meat. It was way too slow to run out of anything. Server was nice, but the kitchen and food was just so insanely slow. Despite having to wait forever, once it showed up, it was okay. Not great, not terrible, just ok. I'm not saying I won't come back, I'm just saying I know what to expect. There are better Mexican restaurants in Caldwell, and a much better one in Kuna that I'd rather go to.
