Cabo Wabo Cantina

To anyone who might be searching for a place to eat in JFK’s Terminal 7, avoid Cabo Wabo at all costs.
Lured in by the photos, I was expecting some delicious American/​Mexican fusion. Okay, I’ll admit I was expecting standard airport food, but my experience was way, way worse than I expected.
Waiting for the server to come and take my order took forever. I must have waited 15 minutes before simply going up to the bartender and asking him myself.
When I got my «meal» (I ordered seafood bisque), I was given some cream soup with minced grains of mystery meat in a styrofoam bowl. Styrofoam!?! Who uses that these days???
Then, when it came time to pay, I had to wait another 15 minutes. In the end I interrupted the waiter to hand him my credit card. It took me longer to get service than to eat my meal.
I wasn’t the only one. I saw one girl approach the bar asking why her table hadn’t seen a waiter yet. I saw another guy at the bar sit down for 15 minutes, not get served, so he got up and left. Wise choice.
If you’re in JFK’s Terminal 7, save yourself the wait and go to McDonald’s. You’d get more value too. A small bowl of soup and a beer costed $ 20.
