Reviewers describe Cabanas Pupuseria as a lively, family run spot with generous portions and real Latin flavors, where service is fast and friendly and the menu offers plenty of pupusa options for everyone. A few experiences note order mishaps on takeout and some dishes that were bland or oily, but even these reviews emphasize the warm atmosphere, affordable prices, and the feeling of being welcomed like family. Many praise the large portions, the hearty dishes, and the value, with the option to take leftovers home, and several mentions of returning for more savory pupusas and other Salvadoran favorites. A common thread is the cash only policy, which is clearly noted, and despite occasional glitches the overall sentiment remains positive about the food and the lively, inviting environment.
I had to try this place after my friend wouldn't stop talking about it. A great family owned restaurant that makes you feel like you're back in El Salvador.
Very fast & friendly service! It took no time for our table of six to be served. I ordered too much food & my bill was under $40!
The pupusas are massive (the portions are generally very generous) & the menu is so extensive that there is something for everyone.
I was disappointed with my experience at Cabanas. I ordered take out & when I got home I realized that the restaurant had forgotten one of my pupusas, & no one mentioned it when they handed the order to me. Maybe double-checking orders before handing them out would help avoid this.
The pupusas I did receive were a bit bland. I also
ordered chicharron as an appetizer, but it lacked flavor & was pretty underwhelming. The yuca was extremely oily & seemed old, like it hadn't been freshly prepared.
Overall, the missing item & the food quality made the experience frustrating. I hope they improve their quality control & communication with customers in the future.
Went here at the recommendation of a colleague. Wow! Amazing food with hearty portions; I ordered a bunch of food & now have leftovers for lunch because I didn't realize the portions were so big. I spoke franglais with a waiter. The staff are friendly, kind, & generous. I took the food home with me; they gave me huge portions of sauce (almost too much?!) & a big salad as well.
I can't wait to try more food on their menu!
¡Wow, wow! Me encanta venir aquí, todo es delicioso y el ambiente es muy cálido y acogedor. Cada vez que vengo no quiero irme y ya estoy pensando en regresar al día siguiente. Es un restaurante lleno de vida, con un servicio increíble. Julisa ofrece una atención excelente y Elizabeth también, ¡wow, las adoro! Siempre vuelvo y definitivamente seguiré regresando.
On a célébrer le 18 ans de mon fils avec toute la famille! On nous a accueilli très chaleureusement, le service a été super! Les Pupusas excellentes! On a couper le gâteau d'anniversaire la propriétaire a mis las mananitas en ramenant le gâteau avec les bougies allumés! Je recommande las Cabanas pour profiter de la gastronomie salvadorienne à MTL!
