I've been to Cabana numerous times before and lately I have stopped going. The food on the menu is the same that they've had for years! Even the specials! For appetizers I always have the Coconut Shrimp which is always good but, they only give you 4 pieces and they're overpriced. I must admit all their appetizers are a good selection with something for everbody's liking. For dinner I usually have the Churasco Steak or the Chicken and Shrimp. Good luck with the steak. At times, it can taste kinda rubbery. Oh and I've had the Pork Cops too which were pretty good. Two big pieces which two people can share. My boyfriend said the Salmon is pretty good too. Just make sure they cook it well in the middle. We had that issue already. For dessert, I never leave without getting the Tres Leche Cake. Delicious! The Bannana fritters are good too. The Mojitos are really good not bad for $6 bucks. We usually get rounds of mojitos or the White Sangria Pitcher. (they put real fruit in it). Tell them to make it strong! Now the place is WAY TOO SMALL! Seating is NOT prompt! It gets really crowded on fri and sat nights! After 8pm you basically will be waiting like 1hr for a table! Mind you since like I said the place is so tight that there's basically no room for you to even stand around and wait. Everybody is literally on top of each other waiting for their table. We usually wait outside but good luck if it's winter! Oh and by the way, there is NO reservations! The service is ok (waiters staff etc.) It's not worth the $100 you will pay for this place. Take the ride to Astoria Steinway way better selection of great Restaurants there. This place is good for a quick, near by, dinner date if you live in FH like I do. I guess after awhile I just got tired of the food. NEXT!
Pros: Great Mojitos! Ask for stamp on your parking ticket if you park at the garage (next to Barnes and Noble) you only pay $3.
Cons: The seating is NOT prompt at all. No reservations allowed. Small tight place. Pricing is TOO high not worth it.
