Wow! We went here on a lovely day, enjoyed the big, free parking lot in the back and walked in easily through the back entrance. I have celiac disease and our server took this very seriously and let me know what she knew with certainty was gluten free. She checked on everything else and came back with a detailed report on the ingredients. I ordered lengua with the criolla sauce on the side, with sides of rice and beans, very fresh steamed vegetables and arepas. The lengua (beef tongue) was delicious - beefy tasting and tender. Huge portions of everything for $16. My guy got a massive fried rice dish with chicken, beef, shrimp and vegetables for about the same, with the ones without shrimp for a few dollars less. They have fresh veggie juices for $6, and we got one with cucumber, celery, ginger, pineapple that was delicious, refreshing and fresh. I discovered aguapanela and our waitress had me sample it different ways which was fun and very cool and we got some cold with lemon to go. They have a good variety of South American dishes and some fusion, including what might be the best guacamole I've ever had. It was fluffy, creamy, tasty and just wonderful. The kitchen messed up my order initially but the waitress recognized the mistakes right away and took care of it graciously. She really understood that celiac is real. So that was a minor issue in my book because it was made right and we had a fantastic meal in this clean, pleasant restaurant. It's simple tables with no real booths, so I wouldn't call it cozy or upscale, but comfortable, clean and pleasant. We're totally going back, even though we live 20 minutes away in Bridgeport and have lots of good places here, but this is also a cool area (SoNo) to walk around and we think the cute, empty storefronts will be full of cool shops within the year as it gets safer to go out. They have a bar and happy hour, although it's kind of brightly lit and doesn't have a bar room feeling. They also have French fries, empanadas, other fried foods, baked potatoes, and probably plenty of more American style foods to appeal to people with less international taste or anyone looking for snacks. Go there now - it's a great place, and take advantage of the big, free rear parking, because we saw tickets getting left for cars at the meters out front.
