Love coming here! We came here 2 years ago when we got engaged and I had the hillbilly quesadilla then. I haven't shut up about it since and when we planned this trip for our 1 year wedding anniversary, this is the food I was looking forward to the most! The ambiance is super inviting, the vibes are fun. Service was fast and friendly and the food was delicious! Can't wait to come back! read more

It's larger than it looks from the street. There's a huge screened in room out back. Large menu, the usual Mexican dishes in most of the USA. Has a bar. Couple of unisex bathrooms. They have seating from a four top to a few 12 seat long tables. I was in a group of seven. All our orders came out right. The chicken legs(wings) looked great. We were all satisfied. I'd go back. read more

La Cabana Mexican Restaurant - Burrito Slade- 12 inch Burrito!! - Mexican Near Me - Slade, Kentucky

Food was standard Mexican fare. Very large portions. Staff was great and responsive to requests. Very busy place. Go early

This place is always busy. Now we know why! The food is fresh and large portioned and the cocktails are super good. Try to the top shelf house margarita. Teresa got a KY Mule. Their bourbon selections is pretty great too! Megan took exceptional care of us. Teresa got the grilled chicken salad. It was yooge but very fresh. I chose the mixed fajita quesadilla and added chorizo- because I could. It was substantial too. A full meal for sure. The atmosphere here is super playful and comfortable. There's a good number of TVs if you're a foodie looking for the days games! We loved our time here and plan on returning when we're 'in the gorge' next. read more

This mexican restaurant is absolutely delicious!!!! We eat there everytime we are near the Gorge! The staff is so friendly and you never go away hungry!!!!! read more

For being out in the middle of nowhere Kentucky, this is as good as it's going to get. But, after the first few bites of everything, I could tell it was all foodservice, and mainly pre-made. The salsa whether fresh or prepared, was the best thing on the menu. Very lively spot, bar seating and enclosed patio seating. read more

We decided to take a leisurely ride out through the natural bridge area. I had checked Yelp for good places to stop for lunch. I chose La Cabana from the reviews. We figured it was worth a shot. This place is a nice find in the area. The patio area is comfortable and we were quickly greeted by our server. Our drinks came promptly. We placed our food order and it wasn't long before we were enjoying what we ordered. The hillbilly quesadilla was tasty. The shrimp chimichanga didn't disappoint. We will be back, when we are back in the area read more

The hillbilly quesadillas and shrimp tacos were both amazing. The chips and salsa were both pretty good too.

This is one my favorite spots to eat at the Red River Gorge! Tasty Mexican food in the middle of a mountain town - who would've thunk!! The servers are super friendly and start you off with generous portions of FREE chips and salsa!! Yum! The salsa is tasty, too. My favorite orders are the tender pork carnitas. Melt in your mouth. And you'll also get a huge portion of rice and beans to go with it. I also recommend the molcajete options, which are grilled entrees on a hot lava bowl filled to the brim. The other day I ordered a seafood molcajete with a ton of grilled shrimp. (Seafood in Kentucky? Sure, why not!) I would dock some points for their very dry tacos and so-so guacamole, which kind of taste store bought. But I'll overlook those things in case it was an off night (I've come before and the taco was fine). Close your meal with some delectable fried ice cream or churros! The latter is a fine choice, as they're cream filled and come with a bowl of chocolate to dip. My friends love getting their huge margaritas here (Mango and lime are good options). Order a "becky," which is an extra shot of tequila if you're feeling crazy! I also like how they serve dark modello beer with lime. Classic. The food is filling and generous - perfect after a long day of hiking, climbing or other outdoor sports. Share an entree with your dining companion if you have a small stomach. Be prepared for huge portions!! They have the capacity to serve large groups here, and the fun and bright decor is always cheery. Buy t-shirts, toys or other knick knacks at the front desk. read more

The staff was super friendly and this is not their fault at all but the tacos were horrible. The steak tasted old and chewy, the tortillas were cold and it was not good at all. The chorizo-queso was good but other than that don't recommend. Also very over priced for three tacos!! Won't be back read more

Location was so cute! We just got done hiking at Red River Gorge and saw this place. So happy to have been seated outside by the creek. Food was fast, hot, and delicious!

We came in around 3:30 after a day of hiking. It was off peak time and perfect. The waitress was Lexi and she was the best. She did say she had some rough customers earlier but we would never had known if we didn't strike up a conversation. She and everyone else were super pleasant. The food was good. The beer was cold. This hit the spot. We had chicken and rice and the carne tacos. All were great. Very fresh tasting salsa too. Thank you Lexi! read more

We stayed at red River gorgeous cabins and came here. Definitely did not disappoint. The food here is some of the best Mexican we've had. The carnitas were amazing and the amount served was more than I could eat. Service was amazing we chose to have a few drinks prior to ordering food, the server was okay with us waiting to order but also attentive enough to keep our drinks coming. Queso and Salsa were both delicious. Lively place but food is amazing and service is good. Will be coming here again on our next trip to red river. read more

My boyfriend and I went here during our trip to the red river gorge! We went close to close and they were able to serve us with no problem! The staff was very friendly and the manager even checked in with our table, which was super nice. Towards the end when they played the song closing time we did feel a little rushed but we understood! I ordered the la cabaña salad with a side of beans which was delicious and so fresh! The chicken in it was cooked perfectly. Chips and salsa were also good! Would recommend this place to anyone visiting the area & would come again! read more

Quick service, good food, fair prices, large portions. Our server was attentive and kept our drinks filled.

Great food. Great service. We were happy. And we like authentic Mexican Food. The price is higher than home but it is a vacation area. So....it is what it is. We enjoyed it. read more

The first time we ever went down to the gorge we drove past this restaurant at like 6 PM on a Friday night and there was a line out the door and the entire parking lot was packed so we knew that we would have to try it out. I am so glad we did this place was so cute and they actually had a really good food that was reasonably priced. we got fajitas and burritos and spiced specialty cocktails along with many other things. their server was extremely nice and very helpful considering we had never been there and kind of walked us through what's really good and what's not and then also discuss the specials and stuff like that. we were a little worried because eating Mexican food and then going back to your campground can kind of be worrisome but luckily the portions didn't overstuff us to where it feels like you can't move. it was the perfect amount. they also have this little store inside where you can buy T-shirts and sweatshirts and a bunch of other stuff just if you're in the area and want to collect some memorabilia. this is definitely a place you have a check out if you're in the area and we will definitely be back!! read more

Ate here and while the atmosphere was kind of cool, the food was inedible. I first ordered a taco salad and it tasted like it had dog food in it, switched out for a quesadilla which looked like they poured cheese on it. Chips and salsa which ate almost always a win for us was not even worth having. Very disappointing. read more

Fun place, bright vibrant decor, tasty food and great service. Definitely recommend. I shared the hillbilly quesadilla and Hawaiian fajitas with my friend. And omg. They were huge. We had enough left over for dinner and we still have enough for at least one more meal. Both were good - but the hillbilly one was especially unique. Definitely worth eating here if you're in the area hiking or climbing. read more

1/2/21 Came here after hiking the copperas falls at red river gorge. My friend order the mixed fajita entree and I had the hillbilly quesadilla which was also the mixed meats of beef and chicken. It's huge! My friend throughly enjoyed her dish, with no complaints, as did I. Order their green salsa, it's sooooo good! You won't regret it. It's not spicy, it's very flavorful and delicious. The view here is awesome too, but of course in January, the windows are closed to that open window experience. Overall, a great experience all around. read more

Service was good, Taco Carne Asada was fantastic ! A+ in that. Queso came out cold so there is that, but service was good. read more

Ate there last week. Food is very mediocre. Nothing to write home about. Upon entering we weren't greeted by anyone. The hostess was too busy visiting with some other employees. We wondered if we were to seat ourselves and then the hostess finally realized we needed to be seated. C+ restaurant. read more

We were out on 2 wheels today. This is nicest place to eat around RRG right now. It has a huge covered patio, Which is great now the hot weather has hit. With reduced seating it took over 1/2 hour to get a table, Once we order our food was there in just a few min. Good selection of drinks, You could have one while you were waiting on a table. If your in the area place, Stop in and check it out. Large Menu. read more

We love La Cabana Mexican Restaurant! This spot is located just outside of Natural Bridge State Resort Park, so we always visit to eat while we're staying in the area. We have both ordered for carryout, as well as dined in. Either way, the food is always hot and fresh, and really delicious! And the service is always fast and friendly. If you're dining in and you have the opportunity to sit outside, I really recommend that. We like to sit facing the creek that runs along the back side of the restaurant. It's nice to sit there and listen to the water while you dine. They have a pretty typical American Mexican restaurant menu. Lots of queso, which is good in my book! And the margaritas are awesome! They're strong, plus you can add a shot for only $1. That's the best! If you're in the area and looking for a great spot for lunch or dinner, I definitely recommend La Cabana Mexican Restaurant! read more

The portions here are huge! Perfect for after a long day of hiking and climbing. Even the quesadillas were monsterous and we could not finish our plates even though we had climbed all day. The prices are very reasonable. We had a 40 minute wait on a Saturday night but snagged drinks at the bar and played outdoor connect 4 while we waited. It was a fun place and the food was good. I got fajitas and they were everything you'd want fajitas to be. read more
