Is this in the context of someone looking for something? In that case, it means "Have you looked in the cabinet above the sink?"

@ObstreperousB thank you for the quick response, let me leave the context I got here.
A. I kind of like this one.
B. Good choice, how many would you like? If you like, I can start gift wrapping this for you.
A. I haven't totally decided yet. Can I look around a little more?

@Bondskey Well, now I'm confused! Is this in a store? A cabinet above a sink is a strange place for a customer in a store to be looking for merchandise. I think it still probably means "Have you looked in the cabinet above the sink?" but the whole situation is quite odd.
The other possible meaning of "Have you tried the cabinet above the sink?" would be something like "Have you tested the cabinet above the sink?" or maybe "Have you attempted using the cabinet above the sink?"
A: "I can't find any place to put these cans of soup I bought. All the cupboards are full."
B: "Have you tried the cabinet above the sink?"

B. Have you tried the cabinet above the sink?
A. There it is! Thank you.
