Said it needs to be sale first but I told you can give it to someone else if you want but I want that one the one the man was removing from the racks he told her the lady want this one ,, not that one the one she wanted to give me it was already serving on plate to go was cold and very burnt they make believe they was given me the one I requested he put it on a to go plate and he put it on top of the one I didn't want and she pull it real fast inside the bag thinking that I didn't relies the move that just did ,it told her and they all look at me and the two men started laughing because of what she did first of all I was paying for it ,it wasn't free why not given me what I wanted or request, she doesn't have no customer skills that is the reson people business get slow and make no money because people with no morals and respect why make it so difficult and thinking that I was stupid and not knowing what she just did i don't understand why she refused to give me what I ask also she have a attitude and I believe she needs to go home and get another job i will never give my money to that place and I also will tell friend and relatives not to go there poorly nasty business status And also she put soooo much dressing in the salad that was real saggy all watery horrible real horrible that food wasn't for me some send me to buy it it was pretty...

Have been at this restaurant on numerous times and always highly satisfied. Yet today, very dissatisfied. Had to request basic things which are normally provided at a restaurant such as straws, water and utensils! Ordered a hot coffee and the waitress preferred to take care of the male customers ordering take out. My coffee was sitting on the side until she was asked about it. When she finally gave me my coffee was not hot much less warm. Advised her to take it back because this was not acceptable bit she proceeded express her opinion that the coffe was hot. Yes it was when she initially made it and then waited apprix 25 minutes to bring to the table!! Was provided the bill and she included her $9 tip to my bill for a party of only 2. She did not deserve it!! At this point was totally disgusted took my food home. I really question if management changed or just the staff. Strongly doubt I will go back. They just lost a customer whom for 3+ years ordered from there, took many family members for gatherings of a party of 10+. Sad to see this once good restaurant go down...

Based on the great reviews I wanted to give this place a try, have been trying to find my go to local spanish restaurant. The first thing that happened when I entered was the cashier kept telling me to take a menu. I had already known what I wanted as they have a big menu outside in their window. I was then ignored since there were two spanish men that came in after me and she went to asked them what they needed. Afterwards I told her what I wanted to order but didn't want any avocado instead could I get something else. She said salad and I said sure, I thought she meant to give me more salad as a substitute. There was probably a miscommunication. That was not the case. For $16 before tax this was one of the smallest spanish platters I have yet to receive.

The place is clean and welcoming. We were a party of 5. We ordered the fried red snapper, Colombian typical platter, grilled chicken breast and 2 soups of the day which was rib soup (one with chicken and the other with grilled meat). We paid $129 and gratuity of 18% was included because I guess it was 5 people. The food was brought out at the same time so others didn’t have to wait. The only complaint I might have is that the chicharrón wasn’t crunchy, it was soggy and wasn’t able to eat it. Aside from that it was delicious even the fruit juice. I recommend the place as a sit down and relax place. El lugar es limpio y acogedor. Éramos un grupo de 5. Pedimos pargo frito, bandeja paisa, pechuga de pollo a la parrilla y 2 sopas del día que era sopa de costilla (una con pollo y la otra con carne a la parrilla). Pagamos $ 129 y la propina de 18% estaba incluida porque supongo que por lo que éramos 5 personas. La comida se trajo al mismo tiempo para que otros no tuvieran que esperar. La única queja que podría tener es que el chicharrón no estaba crujiente, estaba empapado y no podía comerlo. Aparte de eso, estaba delicioso incluso el jugo de frutas. Recomiendo el lugar como un lugar para sentarse y relajarse.

Food was good but not the best Spanish spot that I've been to. To stones are not to my liking and the sweet plantains aren't good. I'm also Dominican so I have high expectations. I would go here again but I've seen better. Anyways, if you aren't Hispanic I'm sure u will love it regardless. Hot sauce is on point though.
