Carne Asada Tortilleria Nicas — Restaurant in Sweetwater

We are vegetarians and came to this typical Nicaraguan restaurant "Carne Asada Torrilleria Nicas" for lunch. To our surprise, the food was not as tasty as we expected. Nothing is labeled, and nothing is priced. You get 3 choices on your plate. We were not asked what we wanted in the main selection (much larger area of styrofoam box). We also bought a typical drink "Cebada" (pretty ok). Even though, we got white rice with peas, little corns and sweet bannanas (cabbage on a separaye bag), the price was the same as for a plate containing chicken, rice and beans, yuca (cabbage on a separaye bag) - for a non-vegeterian member.. There is Bachata music in the background and a large TV displaying music related show.

There are a total of 5 chairs, 3 face the window and 2 the wall.

The food looks tasty, and the processing of your order goes fast. This is quite a popular place. There is a lot of assortment, and the owners and / or employees work diligently. - Thank you!

However, we can not rate this place 4 or 5...

Nicaraguan food take out with a few chairs to eat in. Mostly visited by nicaraguans so you know it is the real deal. Think of it as a buffet line, you point at what you want and they add it to your box/plate. As of 2024 the price for a "completa" is 15. With a "completa" You get animal protein, rice, salad and another side. The animal protein is generous for a nicaraguan place. The best animal protein is roasted pork (cerdo asado), second best roasted beef (carne asada) but they run out of the pork often and the they keep it on a side box to the right, out of the view, wo you have to ask for it. Be prepared to wait in line (10 people before you, maybe) as the place is good. Parking is horrible, they have probably 15 spaces for the strip malll. Park on the strip mall east of this one and walk to the place. (3 minute walk). A hassle? Sure, is it worth the hassle? Try it, and...
