La Cabaña Food Truck
Written and Photographed by Nancy Clover
They’re BACK, Melrose — and they’re bringing the heat!
La Cabaña Food Truck has officially rolled back into town and is serving up authentic Mexican and Salvadoran flavors at 386 Main Street (Mobile Station parking lot). And to celebrate? 20% OFF all food orders now through Saturday, Feb 21! Use promo code Cabana20 when ordering online.
But this isn’t just great food — it’s a dream come true.
Cesare and Vilma worked two jobs for years to make this happen. Cesare, formerly a chef at Mexico Lindo and a familiar face at Hugo’s, and Vilma, who waitressed and worked housekeeping, saved every dollar to buy their own food truck, and they made, La Cabaña’s dream became reality.
And the food? Worth the wait.
- Steak tacos with fresh tortillas (warning: their two levels of hot sauce are seriously spicy!)
- Mexican hot dogs wrapped in bacon and loaded with toppings
- The legendary Big Al Burger (named after Al from Hugo’s) — messy, massive, and AMAZING
- Handmade pupusas with crispy edges and gooey centers
- Burritos, quesadillas, tortas, bowls & more
- Crispy churros for a sweet finish
Order by walking up, calling (857) 452-6231, or online via Toast or DoorDash.
On a beautiful day, grab your meal and head to the park or take it over to Hannah’s Brewing Company for a cold beer pairing.
They’re also available for private events and catering!
La Cabaña is more than a food truck — it’s hard work, heart, family, and flavor wrapped into every bite. Stop by for incredible food and an even warmer welcome from Cesare and Vilma. Let’s show them some Melrose love!
