    This is our favorite restaurant! Everything is incredibly delicious. We keep coming back! I’m not able to have dairy right now and this was the best restaurant experience I’ve had. Every single person knew what had dairy and what didn’t. We were pretty impressed.

    Very strange to encounter a restaurant that does not have free refills on drinks. However, this was the only downside to eating at Cabra. The food was excellent. As a person of Peruvian heritage, the inspiration for the menu was perfection. Equal parts traditional and innovative. We enjoyed the Brussels sprouts, beef empanadas, the queso & chorizo, the salmon party, and jalea mixto. I would have everything again except for the beef empanadas. The filling was excellent, mind you. The crust was just too thick and a bit overcooked. That, or I just prefer the dough to filling ratio of Argentinian empanadas. All in all, I would run to Cabra for a return visit. ♥️
