    The food was amazing! Service was great! The ambiance was relaxing (we sat outside). I highly recommend eating here. From drinks to desserts, everything was delicious! Check out the photos. You do have to pay for parking. We just walked in no reservations.

    This is a wonderful seafood restaurant. Service was amazing. The tacos tasted great. I tried a ribeye dish that was OK. It's a very trendy environment.

    Cabanna in Tijuana offers a vibrant dining experience with a menu that caters to diverse palates, featuring particularly well regarded seafood. Pro tip: It gets busy during peak times with a decently long wait. You can make a reservation online through their site, but it'll be in Spanish. Google translate helps a ton of you don't know the language. My recent visit included their rib eye, fettuccine, and the memorable Especial de Camarón. While I can personally vouch for the enjoyable nature of the rib eye and fettuccine, the shrimp dish truly stood out, echoing the positive sentiments often found in reviews about Cabanna's fresh and flavorful seafood preparations... think perfectly cooked, tasty, and satisfying. I asked the waiter for another of the ceviche, but they seemed to have forgotten it. That's ok though, because I was super full after the meal. But really it was so, so good! Beyond the main courses, the restaurant boasts a varied selection of coffees, perfect for an after meal indulgence. For those whose Spanish might be a bit rusty, it's advisable to brush up on a few phrases. While the staff do speak some English, communication flows best in Spanish. That being said, the waiters are notably helpful and will make a genuine effort to assist regardless of any language barrier. A convenient feature for international visitors is their payment system; they accept cards and will bring a portable machine to your table for the transaction and they accept Discover, which is nice due to their lack of international fees. Families with young children will also appreciate the availability of baby high chairs and attentive staff. They often asked about our baby making sure that we are comfortable. They also have a kids menu and gave us a crayon too, though our infant is too young to use it, haha. The atmosphere at Cabanna is lively, and it's clear this is a popular spot, especially in the evenings. However, this busyness can sometimes translate to a slight dip in attentiveness from the staff. During these bustling periods, a friendly reminder or two might be necessary to ensure your needs are met. Overall, Cabanna provides a strong dining option with flavorful dishes, especially their seafood. While there's slight room for improvement in service consistency during peak busy times, the helpful staff and tasty food, particularly standout shrimp specialties, make it a worthwhile visit in Tijuana.

    Pan de Elote/ Corn Cake. Why is corn not a more prevalent dessert grain?! This was sweet and moist without being cloying. 8/10 Recommend.

    Amazing experience! Delicious food, attentive service, beautiful decor, excellent prices. I'm allergic to cilantro, which all three salsas they brought to the table had. Our server immediately removed them, and told us that he was going to ask the kitchen if they could make something special and spicy for us. Didn't ask, just let us know. A few minutes later, this smokey, spicy avocado salad appeared and WOW! ¡Muy Delicioso! If we come back through TJ, Cabanna is a MUST stop!!

    My friend brought me to Cabanna as she frequents it when she comes down to Tijuana. The restaurant is located at the upper level of the mall in which you park at the lot and receive a parking ticket upon the entrance. I could imagine this restaurant being busy especially in summer as it has a beautiful patio space with boho light fixtures and the dining tables resembling a beach cabana. I couldn't eat any meat or seafood at the time, so I opted for a Burrata and Tomato Salad. It was a generous portion of leafy greens. A burrata ball was sliced in half, and the salad was topped with sliced almonds, cherry tomatoes, and a sweet sauce. To drink I had a popping boba tea drink called Té Helado Pops. It was a peach tea and the popping boba was sweet, but I couldn't distinguish the fruity flavor. My salad was filling and refreshing although I wish I could have tried their seafood! The service was extremely attentive! My friends ordered their battered shrimp, and shrimp tostadas all which looked very appetizing. Their tostadas are so light and airy and their salsas are packed with flavor. Really great first impression and I will hopefully be back to give their seafood a chance!

    This is my favorite restaurant to go to when my dog is in Tijuana for teeth cleaning. The food is super fresh, and the salsas are delicious. Great service too!

    Cabanna is an upscale seafood restaurant in Tijuana. The seafood was great, flavors, presentation, all absolutely amazing. The portions were more like appetizers, not like meals. Small. The pricing was decent, but when you factor in that you are paying for appetizer portions, it makes you think twice about returning to Cabannas. This is the pace to be if you want to be sent as a high class, classy, and elegant socialite. This is where all the cool and rich people hang out. Loved the food, was caught off guard by their smaller than normal portion sizes.

    In Tijuana for business and Cabanna was recommended by local teammates. The location was a short walk from hotel. Great staff and menu. Will return next trip.

    This is our favorite restaurant to go in Tijuana ... the customer service you get here is impeccably perfect . There's a few things we highly recommend.... The jicama taco filled with coconut shrimp and a splash of some kind of citrus salsa , the quesito taco it's like a quesadilla taco with shrimp and slices of avocado . The ribeye taquitos and we tried ribeye steak that was brought out in a small Grill with asparagus and potatoes to drink I had a corona and shots , my husband likes fruity drinks got the tamarindo slushy martini and the cucumber drink . The restaurant has a mix of art deco / NY style vibes , they also have cabanas outside for seating if you feel like catching a breeze or a little bit of sun . This is our favorite and we will never get tired of coming here , the experience and service is above and beyond and I wished we had that more in other establishments...

They go above and beyond here with their cocktails This place is in one of the safest areas of Tijuana.... you can see the difference in their patrons. Well off locals, and tourists like ourselves. Our server was AMAZING! young fellow named Salvador Garcia. Very pleasant, knowledgeable, and A+ in service. A must hit spot in TJ

I had someone call from our hotel and we got right in and there was a line outside. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is all great. Their breakfast goes from American eggs and bacon with the best potatoes to wonderful burrito type breakfast items. Their menudo is great and they have great Mexican meats as well. Lunch and dinner is about the same. They make Mexican style fish and steak that is just perfect every time. All of their Mexican dishes are just wonderful. You can't go wrong. They even have bottled water--never drink the water there, just don't. They have the best rice and beans. The service is great. They make you feel right at home and even if you don't speak Spanish, most speak English and you will figure it out because they will help you. The prices are fair for what you get. At dinner I consider it fine dining. It is all good and you will be happy. The place is also clean and super comfortable.

It has an old spanish mission look on the outside and walking in, you can immediately recognize that it is an impressive and popular place. The decor here is something to write home about. Beautiful wall fixtures, and well crafted local pottery and other artifacts, all around, everywhere. There is ample seating, that is well spaced out. Perfectly pitched Mexican music permeates the atmosphere. There is attentive staff that is so courteous, and welcoming. I wanted to eat lite, and I wanted to eat Mexican, so I chose the Yucatán Tamales. It comes as one pork and one chicken, both slim, wide rectangles, each baked in a banana leaf. They both had their subtle and distinct flavors. Comes with refried beans. The complementary salsas, the rojo and verde, were fresh and tasty. Service was outstanding. Another memorable restaurant in Tijuana, that needs to be filed into the "excellent" and "must go" folders.
