4 chicken tacos had good flavor...I love cilantro and onions and I'm so happy this was pack full of it! Tostones / Fried Green Plantains were good as well with that mojoito for dipping. Definitely will order from here again

Huge portions of delicious, authentic food! 10/10 would recommend! The birria QuesaBirria tacos (3) are my absolute favorite!

10/10!! This was an incredible surprise- especially for the price! We ordered the Chicharrón y Arepa / Fried Pork Rind and Arepa which was the BEST I've ever eaten! Perfectly seasoned, perfect texture! We also had the Arepa de Pabellón / Pabellon Arepa which was delicious with a side of Pico de gallo . The Yuca Frita / Fried Cassava was perfect! The the 3 Leches Cake was excellent! Cant wait to order again!
