We ate there and food was good! We ordered the roast chicken and Peruvian rice!! All done perfectly!! Service was good also . Ambiance was "meh" - nothing to rave about!! But the food was good and filling! Cooked well. Chicken was tender and juicy! ( no blood noted) Rice was delicious!! I think we had churros for dessert and they were good also!! read more

I ordered the roasted chicken with rice. I had a few bites and as I got deeper into the chicken I realized it was raw. I looked at all the pieces and the Chicken was raw in many spots. So unsafe to serve this to customers. There's still blood moving around in my video. read more

La Cabaña Peruana - Peruvian Near Me - Rockaway, New York

A local staple of the Rockaways. Roasted chicken, maduros, yuka fries and green sauce are my personal favorite. My kids are big fans of the rice and beans. In the winter the chicken soup is also a winner. We generally take out but if you eat in you can bring your own wine. read more

Pus Wow! Just came back from the beach and this place completely exceeded my expectations! Food was filling and so amazing! Glad to have a great place to eat Peruvian after a fun day at the beach!!! read more

This location does NOT serve authentic Peruvian food. They have spin offs! Pescado a Lo macho was not spicy at all. When we asked for rocoto they did not have! The Causa was missing olives, but had tomato's as garnish and the mashed potatoes had no flavor. The fried calamari was not peeled or cooked properly too tough to chew. The green sauce was mostly Mayo and oil, very watery. The rice was over cooked without much taste. But to top it all off the server was a young rude Latin man definitely needs courtesy when dealing with customers. Definitely will NOT be back If you are looking for Peruvian food please Stay away!!! read more

La Cabaña Peruana - Causa ?!?! - Peruvian Near Me - Rockaway, New York

Picked up 3 orders for dinner, seco de carne, seco de cabrito and one other entree. They didn't label the secos so we had to call back as my husband doesn't eat goat. Both secos came with 3 pieces of bone with very little meat for $22+ a plate. The three halves of potato were bigger than the meat. They used to be good and give a good amount of food. Now the food is subpar and the amounts are very little. Not worth it. read more

It was better when they first opened. As the years went on the quality of food has downgraded. Ate here more than 3 times still dislike the quality. I ordered a combo meal. How am I suppose to serve this to a friend? I had to order chicken from somewhere else so we would eat BURNT hard chicken! Whoever bagged this for a customer needs a talking to! read more

La Cabaña Peruana - A whole BURNT chicken was tough and hard to chew! QUEMADO no se puede comer!! - Peruvian Near Me - Rockaway, New York

We're regulars at Pío Pío, so our expectations are usually disappointing, but this place is exceptional! It's clean, and the food is fresh and authentic To find parking is much easier than you would expect (considering it's within a few blocks of Rockaway Beach) It's also extremely affordable If I had to find a critique, I think the menu is too long Staff was great! read more

Very good chicken, tostones, maduras. Nice service, too. The atmosphere is basically that of a homey diner. If you want to eat your meal on the boardwalk, get your order to go, and then congratulate yourself on saving money over the $$ food court places where day-trippers flock. read more

Local Peruvian spot. Ordered from here a few times. Got the Jalea, tostones, maduros, and chicken. The jalea is tasty but slightly disappointing in that every time I ordered it, it was mainly fried fish. Not much shrimp or squid in the plate. The maduros and tostones are standard. And the chicken is good. read more

Terrible management, the food was tasteless, overpriced and cold. I definitely NOT recommend this place to anyone, I don't think they serve authentic Peruvian food! Try somewhere else. read more

Just because you don't speak Spanish that doesn't mean they give less food for the price this is the second time they charged me $20 for a meal that cost $18 Lomo de pollo with fried rice no I go Lomo de pollo with white rice with 6 or 7 small pieces of chicken large pieces of onions and tomatoes so you can't see how small the chicken was and large portion of rice and it suppose to come with French fries I said no fries extra chicken they stay getting over on ppl that don't speak their language if you speak English and you order food from them check it before you leave read more

Food is actually very good and their green sauce is fantstic but the past three times I have ordered the skirt steak they send some cheap cut of meat. Very disappointing. $22 for some thin chewy steak is not good business. read more

La Cabaña Peruana - "Skirt steak" but definitely not. - Peruvian Near Me - Rockaway, New York

Tried la Cabaña tonight. They were busy when I walked in and I had to wait about 5-10 minutes just to order. After I placed our to go order, I waited about 25-30 minutes to get the food. There is only one person who was working in the front trying to wait on tables, answer phones and take the take out orders. He was running around but just couldn't handle it. They need to have more people. When I got home and started eating, there was a piece of hard plastic in my food. ‍ I get they are new but they already have another business in ozone park, they should understand how to staff a place. Also the lady in front of me asked for an extra sauce and the guy didn't want to give it to her because "they're a new business and don't have enough." The food was not bad but hopefully the get their act together in the near future and my next plate in plastic free. read more

La Cabaña Peruana - Plastic in my food - Peruvian Near Me - Rockaway, New York

This place just opened for business 4 days ago. We really enjoy Peruvian food and wanted to support our local business. We were greeted and seated. The place has a good amount of seating, nicely decorated and the mats on the table are so beautiful. If you decide on booth seating just be aware it's tight. Smaller than what I've seen but not totally uncomfortable. We settled on the chicken with arroz Chaufa which is their fried rice, fried plantains and salchipapa. As you can see from the pictures the portions are small but I was full. Some might not get full from this. However you can order an actually arroz for the table for $18 which I'm pretty sure can feed several people. I thought the food was tasty. I really liked their aji sauce which had a kick but still really good. The chicken was juicy and had a nice flavor. The salad dressing was really really good! The rice was also very good. Not greasy at all which is great. Also, they didn't have any highchairs yet which I hope they get for us parents. I really hope they do well in the area since we don't have a place like this. read more

Yes yes yes the seafood tower , the rice , the food the good the food is phenomenal! Another one of my frequent stops ! Love the chefs all day , yummy for my tummy read more

Absolutely love the food!! It's delicious, HOWEVER every time I have had delivery the delivery dude steals and double tips himself. I have called and never gotten a response back from the manager so I will just not be ordering anymore and assume the delivery dude needs the money more than I do since he felt the need to steal from a customer MORE THAN ONCE! My family and I have ordered a few times. We spend a decent amount on our orders. I pay with my debit over the phone and tip in cash. I noticed that the delivery dude does not give me a receipt and tips himself on my debit card the same amount I gave him in person in cash. So he's basically getting my tip in cash and the same amount in tip again from my debit. I called twice and was awaiting a call back from a manager. Never spoke to one. Gave up. Sad they are employing a person who is stealing from their customers. Even sadder Bc I really love the food. read more

Very bland food, had to as waitress for everything even though service fee was tagged on and waitress gave us .all fifty cents in Pennies -save your Money read more

What a terrible experience. I've been around the world in developing countries and my expectations are not high for service... this came nowhere close to my lowest expectations. My daughter's food never came... and no one ever came to check on us... forget refills on water. When we finally talked with someone they said they'd check on the food and after more of a wait they apologized saying they hadn't put it in. By this point I was finished with my meal and ready to go... My daughter had just ordered a tamal and they said no, no it'll just be a few minutes. When they brought her food it was cold inside and at this point we just wanted to leave. Another surprise comes in... While they apologized for the food they certainly made no adjustments for a missing order and cold food but they also did an automatic 18% service fee... REALLY? There was no service but they automatically included 18% although this was not stated anywhere.... we were a party of 2. I asked the folks beside of us and they said this was a new deal to charge for service... It would have been one thing if we had gotten service but we didnt I won't be back and I'm posting this review anywhere I can find a place to post it! read more

They lost a loyal customer. As I mentioned before the Ros chicken was our favorite. Today I came at 12 PM (just when they open) to get some chicken. When I got home the chicken was very dry. I used the thermometer to take temperature and it was cold inside. I've been working in the food industry for many years and I know when a food has been reheated, the taste, the smell and the texture isn't the same, specially if it's chicken. We didn't eat the chicken, one because it wasn't going to have the same flavor and two because we could easily get food poisoning. So sad that they do this. read more

The jalea didn't have no flavor had 4 shrimp, the tallarin verde look like soup a salty soup the bistec was just flotating....

Very on-point! Excellent across the board!! My friend who is Peruvian finds the food very authentic. Especially the ceviche..which is hard to make. Will definitely come back... read more

It's the beginning of summer 2019 and I come here for combo #3: whole chicken, rice, beans, salad, and may I say the green sauce. This combo will suffice for four people...but when the chicken is this good...I turn into a Neanderthal and recognize no one...my sole focus is distracted w this chicken...like a cat w its toy. This chicken falls off the bone, excellent flavor, I sometimes forget about the green sauce (I know- curse the heavens!) I should try other things but when you know their thing- you get it. Combo is $23 plus tax. Also, I order by phone or if in the area order and be ready to wait 20-25minutes. So order, pay, go do groceries and pick up the combo. It's the thing I get when in the rockaways for suuuuuure. read more

Manager is so rude, unfriendly and also the chicken wasn't good. The place looks dirty and the AC doesn't work.

Horrible service the owner kicked us out saying we were distributing when there was only two costumer's.i would never return to that location ever again read more

I and my family had dinner in this peruvian restaurant and we think the Chef has to improve a lot his peruvian taste recipes ,thanks.Guillerm Reyes. read more

Really thought the fall off the bone chicken was fabulous. Can't wait to come back for more of that pollo y salsa verde. Almost forgot about the stellar vaso de sangria/it was bomb read more

The food here is fantastic!!! I've ordered a few times when visiting the Rockaways, and am never disappointed. They are super kind but the service can be a little slow at times, especially considering the pandemic and all the slowdowns going on, so be patient. If you use something like Grubhub, you should call and confirm they got the order (or just call to place your order instead of using the apps). My favorite dishes are the classics- any ceviche, shrimp chaufa, and jalea. The green spicy sauce is super tasty too! Highly recommend this place. read more

A couple of months back I ordered a bistec encebollado, slightly overpriced but I figured if it's good why not? It was bland and tough. Fast forward to now, I decided let me give them another chance. I ordered camarones al ajillo. Ugh....They were sour and almost reminded me of Chinese shrimp in garlic sauce except I would much rather actually order it from a Chinese restaurant. How this place is still in business is beyond me considering how expensive their dishes are. Look elsewhere, don't waste your money. Most places will at least give you beans with your white rice, here they nickel and dime you for every little thing. read more

Great place to have in town. Solid chicken and rice - huge portion for a great price - and that green sauce is delicious. We picked up 1 order of chicken and some fries and headed out to the beach with a bottle of wine. Perfect little meal for 3. read more

La Cabaña Peruana - Picnic spread - Peruvian Near Me - Rockaway, New York

This place is a awesome addition to restaurant row in the Rockaways! I was very sad to see AA Chinese restaurant go but this is more than enough to replace it! First, it is Peruvian in RB?! The only Peruvian spot and it is actually very good! The inside is very reminiscent to most Peruvian Restaurants with bright warm and clean colors. It is spacious and plant of seating. Staff is awesome. I have yet to have a bad experience here, I have dined in on multiple occasions and taken out as well. The girls are friendly and while I know my Peruvian foods they are happy to explain to new affcieanados the ins and out of their yummy cuisine. I have to to go when it is stupid busy, I would say service time is average. Wait is neither too long or short but again maybe I go at the right times? I'm not sure. The Aji Verde-the green sauce is off the chain here. I'm always tempted to take a bottle-if they sold it I would buy it. I have tried many of their dishes, I really like the pork tamale over the chicken. I'm a huge fan of salchipollo ( french fries, sausages, and friend chicken drenched in mayo and ketchup). The portions here are huge- totally worth the price. I wish they had their own home-brew chicha ( purple corn drink) because the one in the bottle is too bazooka gum tasting. Overall? I would totally recommend it to anyone in the Rockaways tired of bagels and pasta. This place is different from the usual far, it is tasty, and good service. Come here. read more

Gave him my CC info. Why is it that when I opened the bag I didn't have my bananas (Plantain that come's with combo #4. I proceeded to call La Cabana Peruna and the same man picked up the phone. I was like I just placed an order but didn't received my plantanos Man from La Cabana: Oh you mean Plantain Me: Yes. Man : I packed it myself it was in there. Me: Sir would you like me to send a pic. Man: No but it was there. Man: I'll have to check with the delivery person. Me: called back in 20 minutes to inquire he said the cook told him it was in the bag. Me. Did you speak to the delivery person? Man from La Cabana: No he's out and didn't come back yet. Me. So you're telling me that you are gonna lose a customer over Bananas. Smh that's Bananas. I will not patronize them anymore the Man who is supposed to be a manager is unprofessional too bad the customer is never right these days. It's now a 1hour and 30 minutes later and they still have not reached out to me over Bananas or Plantain ...Good luck with this restaurant it's hit or miss.. read more
