Stopped by here for lunch recently and was absolutely delicious!! I got the tostones and my husband got his entree with eggs and pulled beef. Quick service, good food, and good drinks! We will definitely be back!

This is my first experience with this restaurant. I placed a take out order. The order was ready in 20 min. I ordered Papusa, Lomo Saltado, and Fajita mix. The food was very tasty, well prepared and very authentic. I will definitely dine-in next time.
