I’ll start with the good things: food was pretty yummy and came out quickly. We were seated no problem on a week night.
The negative: I felt like this place was mega pricey for what you receive(in some of their options). We did check the menu ahead of going and expected this to be a pricier meal but I was disappointed in my tacos. They’re $15 and this includes nothing other than two small tacos with cucumber and radish garnish. The sauce on the tacos was yummy but I just expected them to come a little more beefed up. (See photo) My husband ordered the New York strip steak, which at least came with asparagus and mashed potato’s for $30. This was soooo good and at least was a hefty serving of food. I don’t know how much they charged for the chips and salsa but it came with a SMALL bowl of tortilla chips and no refills, unless you want to pay an extra $4. Seemed a little overkill for just chips.
Our server gave off mega snobby/conceited vibes. She seemed really impatient by my mom taking too long to order her drink and then literally just walked away before she could give her an answer. Just lacking a friendly or approachable personality overall. We really were hesitant on even leaving her a decent tip but this was made awkward by her making us pay via their portable payment devices, which she handed to us, then stared directly at us as we navigated the payment/tip.
I also know it’s winter, but the temperature in the restaurant was quite literally bordering on boil. It was uncomfortably warm in there and I can’t imagine how bad it would be if the restaurant was filled.
Being Latin-American, we were super excited to see this place come to west chester, but it was quite the let down for us.
Fairly certain we wouldn’t return. If we want to have a nice experience and “fancier” fare, I would rather give my...
Read moreIn town from NYC for the holidays -- visited Dec 23, 2024 around 5pm.
atmosphere and ambiance is really nice!! it's a great location for any occasion. cool feature: there's a mouthwash station in the mens room. lol
Appetizer: Camerones Bang-Bang (essentially the same dish at Bonefish Grill: everyone has copied this dish) Their version is slammin!! perfectly cooked and the sauce was great! comes with a small side of pickled onion (not on shrimp, but on side) 10/10.
Entrees: Tostada DeSalmon w/ side of yuca frita. Really delicious and I was surprised at the quantity of salmon on the tostada and size of yuca frita. I want to say the price points for portion size here is really good.
Fish(Tilapia) & Shrimp Diablo (Note: this dish is really spicy) I am use to spice, but it was really spicy for me lol. I will say even though it was more spice than I was expecting I could still taste the food and it was flavorful and cooked well. The cucumbers and avocado helped with the spice.
I will definitely be back. It's cool to see cincinnati stepping up their food game. This would definitely be comparable to a good restaurant in nyc.
Two suggestions: --- Make it standard to have sparkling water in the water carafes just as you do the still water, offer either upon coming to the table.
--- Add the traditional green sauce to your menu as a side; {Aji Verde is a Peruvian green hot sauce. It's made up of fresh cilantro, aji amarillo, huacatay and cheese that makes it creamy and spicy} many latin american restaurants in NY have their own version of it, it's delicious and it goes well with many of your dishes and yuca...
Read moreWe recently had the opportunity to visit this Latin cuisine restaurant, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we walked in, we were struck by the fresh, stylish decor, the spotless interior, and the upbeat music that set a lively, welcoming tone.
We were greeted by two well-dressed hosts wearing name tags, which added a nice professional touch. Our server, Bryan, was attentive and friendly. He started us off with *Chicharrones *(a house specialty) and thoughtfully left a glass bottle of water at our table while we explored the extensive menu.
The menu was impressively diverse, offering more than just traditional Mexican fare. In addition to Latin-inspired dishes, there were steaks, burgers, seafood, and even sushi—plenty of creative options for every palate.
We ordered the King Corona Burrito topped with queso and the chorizo tacos. Both dishes were full of bold flavor and perfectly prepared. For dessert, we tried the cheesecake and the Key lime pie, each featuring a unique Latin twist that added something special to the classics.
The service was outstanding, the food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was both clean and inviting. There are plenty of seating options, including high-top tables in the bar area, booths, and standard dining tables. It's clear a lot of thought was put into making this a comfortable and enjoyable place to dine.
This spot has definitely earned a place as our go-to restaurant—especially convenient when we’re heading to a movie at the nearby...
