The restaurant was previously called El Cazador and operated that way for at least 12 years according to our waitress who was employed there. It is located in a historic venue, the old Ramona Theater. We have tried other La Cabinitas in Hailey, Ketchum, and Meridian so we were already familiar with the menu. Unfortunately that seems to be where the similarities end. I ordered the Tacos de Pescado, grilled fish street tacos with verde sauce & limes (on the side) and it was supposed to come with guacamole, which I had to remind the waitress about. She said that the restaurant had been a La Cabinita for about a year, although the reviews here suggest only several months. Wife ordered the Pollo a La Planca, grilled chicken with onions and rojo sauce. Both came with rice and beans, which were average in quality. The quacamole was deep green, an unnatural color for authentic mashed avocado. It was average as well but did complement the tacos. The fish was grilled; I'm guessing tilapia but it tasted good. The chicken was dry and chewy, likely overcooked and she did not want to finish the meal. Complimentary salsa, beans, and fried chips were served. The salsa had a decent flavor but no attempt seemed to have been made to prep the undesirable parts of the vegetables such as stems, skins, and the like. The beans and chips were served cold; the cheese did not melt at all. Our server was friendly and attentive but struggled some times with understanding English. The restaurant has a banquet section for catering and a lounge with bar and pool tables in the back. Besides mediocre food, the biggest issue is how dirty, smelly, and buggy the place is, both inside and outside. I took a picture through the serving window of the kitchen and what I could see looked average in cleanliness. However, the ceiling tiles, floors, bathroom walls, and fabric bench backs all needed cleaning. There was an odor present that we suspect the fabric and ceiling tiles absorbed. As a reputable chain across Idaho, I don't understand why La Cabinita did not perform a thorough cleaning before they opened under new management. Additionally, we saw a beetle crawling towards our table (which we killed) and the lava rock on the outside was infested with spider webs. A call to an exterminator is needed. Prices are on the low side for 2024 but due to the overall experience they really are no bargain. It seems to me that complacent small town attitudes persist here. Not sure where the back of the house and management came from. I've read the reviews for the closed El Cazador and they were good. A La Cabinita senior management visit is overdue. read more
