My boyfriend and I read all of the reviews and decided to give this place a shot. When we first walked in the first thing I noticed was that the restaurant was not very clean. It wasn't filthy, but it also wasn't what you would expect for a sit-down dinner. Behind the food counter there were two trays steeped high with dirty dishes only a couple feet away from the food that they were serving. It was clear that they do not wash dishes in the back. The wait staff were average, they didn't go over the top to make you happy about your visit there, but the waitress did check on us from time to time throughout the meal and we did not have to wait too long if we needed something. The food was mediocre. Someone mentioned not to get the empanadas and we agree. We make better empanadas at home, as the empanadas they served had one tiny tunnel of meat in the entire shell. The potato balls tasted like they had been sitting out under the heat lamp all day and were very rubbery in texture on the outside. The fried plantains were good and served with the traditional dipping sauce which we really liked because we do that at home. We ordered some chicharon on the side and it was the best we ever had! Steak had a lot of fat on it which was to be expected and a little flavor. However, my boyfriend was not impressed. The rice was okay and the beans were only okay as well. One thing to point out that I thought was funny, is that they could not serve us water.

We would go again only for a side order of chicharon and a Diet Coke to go. Other than that, I do not recommend this place.
