What People Are Saying About La Cabanita
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – Popular with locals for both its authentic Mexican cuisine and its giant, frosty margaritas, the three airy dining rooms are regularly bustling with a lively crowd of couples, families, and groups of friends. Huge 'rita glasses hang over the white-tiled bar, while giant murals, Latin American folk art and paintings make a colorful backdrop to the pleasant beat of salsa music. Specialties include pork with green mole, pork chops baked in pasilla sauce, pozole, carne asada and chile rellenos.

Shoddy service and double standards?
by Aracx
The food is better than average but the service we received was shoddy. We went in dressed casual on a Sunday afternoon. Street casual definitely not Sunday best nor Mexico City pretension. The waitress told us to sit anywhere so we walked up the short stairway to the level that separates the restaurant and sat ourselves at an empty table. The manager or someone with apparent authority appeared out of nowhere and told us rudely and loudly that the area was closed although there were other patrons at tables. No explanation. No apology. No courtesy. My impression is that they are selective about who they will treat graciously, probably just their local regulars.
- Pros: food is better than average and sometimes excellant
- Cons: shoddy service

HORRIBLE SERVICE
by Luciyoda
Food is really good, and many times have put up with the pathetic service to eat there. This time I will have to say I was perplexed at the attitude of the owner and his behavior! Actually was on the verge of being abusive and I will never set foot in the restaurant again!
- Pros: Good Food
- Cons: Terrible Service not worth the good food!

Great food for the money
by Nozferat
The food is great. Their lunch specials are a good deal...the mole sauce is wonderful.
This place is a great alternative to the La Caserio in Silverlake...if you want service that is.
And the food frankly is better here even though it costs less.
- Pros: Food
- Cons: Service OK...place can be nicer
