Cabana Restaurant & Bar

Great food, good service. But you must be willing to wait most evenings at peak dining times. It is a very attractive place ot dine. Pros: great food Cons: long wait more

I was excited about trying this restaurant because I heard so many good things about. The ambience is nice and I like the fact that they stay open late. I don't what happened with the service the night I decided to try. They took so long with the food my cousin told them if we don't get our food in 2 minutes we were leaving. So we got our food then. It was good with hugh portions. The waiter was very nice and it wasn't his fault. They definitely need to do something about the kitchen because it is very slow. Pros: Portions, Ambience, Drinks Cons: Service more

Came to eat at this restaurant with some friends from out of town. The restaurant was conserving costs that day I guess- They had the front windows open and refused to turn the air conditioner on. They could not accomodate any requests- like ice water. The waitress was slow and had to ask the kitchen first every time we asked her about anything on the menu. Our food took so long that we actually seriously contemplated walking out. After we tasted it, we regretted staying. My friend order a cuban sandwich that came with one slice of pickle. When he asked for more, the waitress had to ask the kitchen first, and then came back and said the pickles were pre- apportioned to each plate of sandwiches! No extra pickles, no AC, no ice water, slow service, the whole thing was just dissapointing. And the bill was outrageous. Pros: good bar Cons: slow more

This was overall a good experience rivals some of the best restarant in Manhattan the service is was outstanding. Pros: Good Food, Good Service Cons: Small space more

This place definitely serves good food, and the place is small but romantic. It's a little pricey but it's good to go once in a while. The only down side is the long wait. There's always an hour to hour and a half wait for a table, and they don't take reservations. Pros: great food Cons: long wait more

This was a very nice place. When I first walked in, I was wowed by the dim lights, and romantic settings. The food was delicious. It was a little on the pricy side, but it was well worth it for first dates or any events. Pros: Romantic, good food, Decent Parking more

The food is excellent here. And the portions, for the most part, are so big - you'll have enough for lunch the next day. I highly reccomend the Ropa Vieja. Though not TOO much for vegetarians, they'll find something. Like the other reviewer said, have a Mojito and enjoy the sugarcane. They are *shockingly* under $7 a piece. Pros: Tasty Food, Great Service, Lovely Mojito Cons: , Can Get Crowded more

Growing up in Texas I came to expect good Latino food, but once I moved away it's not as available anymore. However, Cabana has been a great find in New York. There's usually a big crowd, but it's worth the wait. It's a fun atmosphere and great food. Try the Bocadillos to start and don't forget to order a Mojito from the bar (they're the best!). Pros: Great food, Fun atmosphere, Good service Cons: Crowded on weekends, crowded seating more

Service was good except the waitress brought over the check before I asked her. Coconut shrimp, fried cod fish appetizers were good something I would order again, my steak was so-so, prolly order something different next time. I'd go there again and would recommend it to people who want spanish food from forest hills. more

I've been to Cabana three times and have never been disappointed. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is lively and fun. If you like latin food in a classy, fun atmosphere, this is the place for you. Pros: food, atmosphere, drinks Cons: a little small more

The food is ok, but not worth the prices. I found a few things to be way too salty. If you want Latin food don't waste your money here, go to Jackson Heights and pay half the price. more

Went to Cabana for lunch on a Sunday afternoon although I was disappointed the lunch special wasn't applied. I order the Jerk Chicken full price off the menu. Very good but not spicy enough. Great for the average gringo but this Korean likes spice! Nevertheless, its one of my fave restaurant in Forest Hills to eat. Recommended. more

Normally, when I go out to a restaurant I just get my main course or an appetizer - depending on my mood. However, as soon as we walked into Cabana I was already salivating over the menu. The food is amazing from the appetizers - the Tostones are great to the main dish to the dessert to the coffee. This is definately a restaurant that I recommend to people and that is always a suggestion on where to eat on any given night. Cons: PARKING more

I had a great experience. Everything from their special Sangria to their appetizers and entre were full of flavor, fresh and fun. I would highly reccommend it if you're in the mood for food with a lot of flavor. Pros: Service, Food, Location Cons: Location more
