Cabana has been a staple in Forest Hills since my teenage years, offering consistently good Cuban food. The empanadas are a highlight, with their perfectly crispy shell and flavorful fillings. You can't go wrong with the churrasco--juicy, medium-cooked skirt steak served with vibrant chimichurri. For a dish to share, the Paella Valencia is an excellent choice, packed with mixed seafood and perfectly cooked rice. Definitely worth a visit!

Amazing Spanish food!!! Very authentic and the music is fabulous!!! All the Vibe!!! Love it!!!!

Food super good Service excellent with Gigi Ambiance good vibes Never go wrong in this place!

The paella was prepared well and quite filling. Skirt steak was excellent and the fish was the daily special; a hearty treat.

I am actually mad at myself for not dining at Cabana sooner! The service, food and drinks are outstanding. There are many flavors to choose for a mojito, but I stuck with the original and it was perfect. For appetizers, my friend and I shared the Bacalaitos, which are fried salt cod cakes with a creamy guacamole sauce layered between the cakes. We were hoping they wouldn't be greasy or overly salty, but this amazing dish was neither. The ceviche mixto was literally the best I've had in a restaurant in the area, and I have even ordered on a delivery app once since because the octopus, shrimp, scallops, and calamari with red onions is sublime. The texture of the seafood is exactly what one would want and is excellent quality. For dinner, although we were actually full already, we shared a special of the evening which was steak with shrimp, plantains and rice and beans. The steak was so tender and perfectly cooked. The shrimp had the perfect bite and the seasoning perfect. My friend always likes to have a vegetable on the side, so we opted for the Cabana salad which was unique with mixed greens, tomatoes, heart of palms, queso blanco, onions, and a black bean vinaigrette. We left extremely happy and will be back soon.
