Nogales as a small town offers well over a hundred restaurants to choose from, and most of them are on a narrow strip of land along Highway 19, also known as Grand Avenue. You best do your homework on deciding where to stop for some munchies and refreshments… the majority of this town’s selections are hard to say no to. We decided on La Cabaña Breakfast and Grill. Since 1987 Gustavo and Raquel Valencia have put their heart and soul into this Northern Mexican Cuisine hang out! From their homey resto layout, Mexican décor and accoutréments, and their fab food it’s no wonder its always busy! With so many other spots to get your Mex fix in Nogales, this is one you’ll want to stop in again and again. Needless to say, everything we had from their menu was terrific. Buen provecho.

Food was decent (not the salad next to my Machaca Burrito) service was average slow, and the atmosphere made myself and family feel like targets. Not sure if we went in the wrong timing but some people just made our visit feel somewhat uncomfortable. Overall I think it was not too bad, but I think they can do a little better.

I went back to this restaurant after so many years (about 15 years) due to stale meat they had given me in a burrito. I decided to try it again. Taste of food is ok. I asked for the enchilada sale fir the day and compared the enchiladas from when a friend had ordered the same plate. Each of my enchiladas was about a quarter or more less than the regular enchiladas plate. No dessert or drink are included in sale of rhe day. For that amount of food, prices are high. When the waitress brought the drinks, I asked her a question, she responded but started to qalk away. I asked another question, she stops, responds and kept walking. Never did she come directly to the table to respond to my questions. She was walking to a table of two men that had called her. The waitress never offered more drinks. She was quick on asking for a TIP. The audacity these people have. They're always asking for tips at the time of payment. It was hot in there. Not going back.

This place is one of my favorites for good, clean food and friendly service. The chips are straight out of a bag but they're fresh and not greasy. The salsa is raw veges processed in a blender. Beef tamales are delicious. Margarita's kick butt. It's a dive and that's part of the charm.

Just on a Saturday drive with family visiting and came across this cute little place, not a very busy spot but perfect for us. Beverages are available and food is delicious! I would definitely come back. Home style atmosphere and friendly staff. Great to bring children and the elderly.
Food was delicious! This was our first visit, and we will definitely be back. Friendly and attentive customer service made for a very pleasant dining experience.

Very good. I had the chicken burrito, tamale and chicken enchilada combo, and a beer. Excellent traditional Mexican. Chicken was moist and flavorful, enchilada sauce was perfect, tamale had great favor and not dry at all. Good value, good service...I'm stuffed.

This is like dining across the border. Wonderful food and staff. No English spoken. Inexpensive A real gem.
