Catrachito Restaurante — Restaurant in Dallas

I visited Roatán with my wife earlier this year, and loved the Honduran dishes. When I saw this restaurant, I thought, "Awesome-a little bit of Roatán in Dallas!" I walked in during the Sunday lunch hour and it was packed. My instincts told me to leave, but the food looked so good that I waited for a table to open up. When that happened, I waited for the server to come by....and waited....and waited. There was only one waitress and she was swamped.
