La Cabaña Taqueria - Mexican restaurant in Santa Cruz - 2332 Mission St, USA

Really good authentic Mexican restaurant with nice vegan options. I was impressed with the vegan options and how willing the staff were to make menu items vegan! The restaurant was very cute and pleasant to be in and the staff were very friendly. I enjoyed the vegan options a lot and would definitely come back!

This place is great! I was amazed by all the vegetarian and vegan dishes on the menu here. They even had some permanent menu and rotating options. I had to try three different tacos - Brussels sprout, sweet potato, and al pastor style hibiscus flower and they were all delicious. There was a short wait on a weekend and we sat outside. Beers were $4. Excited to return here.

Stopped by here on a business trip and had a regular burrito Carnita with rice and beans. quite tasteless. very plain. was given a teaspoon cup of watered down salsa. Actually, if I lived in this area this would be my first and my last visit to this restaurant. In my photo is the burrito, after I put it on top of the rice and beans in a to-go container and poured one small cup of red and green salsa. The only flavors are the weak watered down salsas.

I just found my new favorite Mexican restaurant in Santa Cruz! Stopped here randomly on our drive down when we saw it from the side of the road. Food was simply fantastic. I ordered a chicken taco and a carne asada taco - the steak was juicy and tender. The chicken had soooo much flavor! It was almost like a Chile verde chicken. The pinto prawns came with cheese on top, beans were cooked properly. The Spanish rice was delicious- now the color isn’t as orange/red like you see most places but the flavor was amazing, the texture was super soft and buttery. My boyfriend ordered the carnitas tacos— some of the BEST carnitas I’ve ever had- melted like butter in my mouth. The inside had a warm and cozy environment, food came out super fast. They also offered a ton of vegetarian options. Will definitely be back!!

Local taqueria with burritos, quesadillas, and more unique fare. Order at the counter. Line gets long and food slow, especially on the weekend, so they use a numbered ordering system. Everything currently packaged to go. Limited outdoor seating, indoor tables, and free parking. The taco salad included taco shells placed on top of large chunks of iceberg and the burrito was soggy with butter, which was disappointing. Edible, but not exceptional. Could be an off day, but other competitors more enticing.

The rice is too soft for me and didnt have flavor. I got the regular bowl burrito and the steak didnt taste as much and the rice was so small portion than other place I've been... this is my first time in here and Im just maybe not used to the way they cook or I just maybe got a bad luck from the lerson who lrepared mtly meal... Otherwise I like the bean part.... I like that their restroom's toilet, sink and restroom floor seems to be pretty clean and neat. The toilet is hard to flush tho, the top flush is so tiny that my little fingers cant almost fit in it. Even though i used hand towel to flush, it ripped as I pushed down 😭Wash your hands thoroughly after flushing so you dont catch anything.......

This is very authentic food. It's absolutely delicious and the portions are great! They also have delicious vegan options.

Updated: my son said there was more bread than meat..definitely not going back... Went tonight for the first time..we ordered to go..I ordered a combination plate..my son ordered a torta with side of fries..barely any fries. And my whole plate was forgotten and we didn't notice of course until we got home..we were given an apology..my husband had to drive back for my plate. ..my husband's carne asada was not traditional and we won't be going back.
