Had 2 different orders of enchiladas. Excellent flavor and portions generous. Service was very friendly but with only 2 servers tonight they looked harried. Atmosphere pleasant but chair covers ripped and overall the restaurant looked worn.

Food is good
I got the empanadas -which are Massive!! Like gigantic -very delicious! I had the Calabaza one which came with summer squash and queso blanco, and i loved it. Drinks are good -tons of hibiscus options, which is my favorite drink flavor; more upscale dining; a little pricier. It's not large, so i would definitely get a reservation. Beautiful venue

Moved to CT 2 years ago from Texas and thought I had to accept that I couldn’t have Mexican food anymore. I drove 2 hours to come here from Hartford and can’t wait for the next time. Very grateful to have found this place. Food was fresh, tortillas being made in house, and had great service. Queso fundido needed to have some of the grease poured off but everything I had reminded me of home in the best ways possible.

Very authentic flavors, reasonable prices and generous portions but those are not the biggest reasons to go. What sets La Cabanita aside is the service. Attentive, informative staff that know the menu even to the point of advising what items travel and reheat well as we were so impressed, we ordered takeout to bring to our friends. The food the next day tasted like it was just plated! exactly as they said. The Attention to detail was so impressive I’ve noted to mention it at my next training meeting at North East Ford and our Heavy truck Service Center in Milton. Excellent dinner, atmosphere but it’s the staff that create the memorable experience.

Had a great very late lunch at La Cabanita that hit the spot-- charming atmosphere in this former church building turned restaurant and very warm staff. I had the enchiladas suizas and a taste of the Tour of Oaxaca appetizer-- yum!

My favorite thing to order is the steak fajitas, it's always fresh and comes with tons of veggies. Drinks are nice and strong as well and they have many fruit flavors to choose from.

La Cabanita is my go-to spot for incredible Mexican food! The El Matador Burrito is a game-changer – it’s huge, perfectly seasoned, and bursting with flavor. And their sangria? Absolutely delicious! It’s the perfect refreshing complement to any meal. The staff is super friendly, and the cozy atmosphere makes for a great dining experience. If you’re looking for a place that nails both food and drinks, look no further. Highly recommend La Cabanita!

Elvis gave us an amazing experience and the food was phenomenal. Elvis was knowledgeable with the mezcal selection and went above and beyond to explain each bottle. He is an asset to this establishment. This is the Best Authentic Mexican Restaurant in the Hudson
