When my mother and I arrived, we stood at the front door, waiting to be seated. There were two waitresses, running around serving people. Since they were plenty of tables, my mother and I took a seat at one. We just came from the city of Hope and she was not able to stand very long. A tall waitress yelled at us and told us that we need to wait at the front door to be seated. Another waitress came over to our table. Happy to serve us. The green salsa is hot and delicious. I had enchiladas, red and green. I only ate half of my plates. For some reason, my stomach wouldn’t let me finish the other half. My mom ate a few things off of her plate as well and took most of it home. We did buy some salsa to take home and flan for dessert.

I don't always get much one-on-one time with my daughters. Being separated and not seeing my kids all the time, you really appreciate times like this. Just you and one of your daughters, eating slowly, joking around, sharing dessert. That's the stuff I hang onto. Food's just the excuse. The real meal is the time you get to share it with someone who matters. Should you check this place out? Yeah. Cabrera's in Arcadia feels like one of those places where time slows down just enough for you to notice it. The staff greets you like they actually mean it, not because they're trained to. The lighting's warm, the booths feel lived in, and there's always someone laughing somewhere -- usually a family celebrating something small but important. I got the carne asada tacos a la carte. Simple, juicy, that perfect grilled edge that makes you want another bite even when you're full. She went with the cheese enchiladas, rich, melty, and exactly the kind of comfort food that makes you exhale a little deeper after the first bite. We finished with flan, smooth and caramel-sweet, the kind of dessert that makes silence between bites feel full rather than awkward. Good for Dates? I'm mixed on this one. If it's a first date or a "getting to know you" vibe, maybe not. It's more for family, close friends, or someone you've already built something with. The kind of place where you can relax, eat something good, and just chill. The servers check in just enough to remind you they care, but don't interrupt when things are flowing. So if you just want to unwind, split flan, and talk about life. Cabrera's is a solid move. Final Verdict Yes, check this place out. But not just for the food, for the moments that happen while you're eating it.

My friend and I had the menudo and a michelada each, and everything was delicious! Very well prepared and presented. Definitely will be coming back.

This restaurant is the Bomb!!! Great food, great portions, great drinks, great atmosphere(outdoor dining), great staff and plenty of parking. Located on the corner of a main street and side street, easy to find & not much outdoor noise. Always had a great experience while dining here. Have brought other family for special occassions and everyone is always impressed. It has become my go to place to unwind in the outdoor patio with a delicious cocktail and a good meal.

I would never call myself a massive fan of Mexican food... only because most of the time it does not agree with me, but if I was to ever make a Mexican restaurant a regular go to this one would be it. Not only is the food really good... but the staff are second to none. They are easily the friendliest staff ever, very attentive, never leaves you waiting on anything. The Margaritas 🍹 are also excellent. I wish they had more of a beer selection, but I know it's a Mexican restaurant and they mostly supply Mexican 🍻 but I wish they took in some microbreweries just to mix it up a little. Great spot, well worth a visit. Again... great staff 09/28/23 Still a great restaurant with great food and even better staff. Very friendly staff Very fresh food
