Not my first time here, I have been here a few times over the past 8 years. Things have changed over the years but still they are just as great. This restaurant has always cooked amazing food! It is absolutely delicious. The horchata was amazing! I have tasted some in other restaurants and it is very watery which I hate and this one is very milky. The nacho tostones has always been my favorite, though, I have tried a few things on the menu and it is always cooked to perfection. For the nacho tostones it says chicken or steak but I ask for pork and it tastes amazing. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. The restaurant is clean, and decorated beautifully. The staff is nice and friendly, and they have nice music for background music while you eat as well as a tic tac toe game to play on each table which is cute. The service is great, was seated immediately, and didn’t wait long for food to be served. This is a great place to eat with friends, family, etc.

I can’t believe I paid $15 for these small *** tacos! And they didn’t give me my beans and rice that goes with the combo. Never again! Go somewhere else don’t waste your money.

Other than the food being decent its waiters are lacking in the department. Rule of thumb is check in on your customers every 10min to 15min. On top of that please put a DISCLAIMER in the front of your store for mandatory GRATUITY for dine in. I pay in cash for GRATUITY based on the level of service not via credit. A disclaimer on menus does not make it legal without a proper personnel waiter describing it & make it visible!! having it advertised in the front of store as well. I tried advising the owner and her behavior went defensive, like take a chill woman it's an advise opinion nothing to be sour about. but anyways it's been reported to the better business bureau as well as my personal bank for a partial refund. Tipping culture is out of control. I even ask her WHO gets the tip you!? Or them? & She replied (I'm the owner no-no I'm the owner I know the law)..you wouldn't make it if it wasn't for the cooks as the food is what keeps people coming not your customer services, that you have to make hand signals to get them over to you!! embarrassing. Even your waiter said I don't know, that's what the boss says. They don't even know where the tip goes.Response: I'm sorry you're hurt for questioning who get the tips from questionable conversations with you. I tip waiters not owners!, don't blow a gasket it was just a question I asked you. YOUR waiter said that's what the boss says & that' made it questionable!just in case there's more to that FL: statueMany restaurants, especially those in South Florida commonly include an added charge on a customer’s bill, which is known as an automatic gratuity. According to Fla. Stat. § 509.214, if a Florida restaurant is going to add an automatic gratuity or service charge to a customer’s bill, it must give notice on the food menu and on the face of the bill that the automatic gratuity is included. if a restaurant in adds an automatic tip, it must post a notice conspicuously, either on a sign or in a statement on the business’s menu or price listing in the same form and manner as the other items on the menu or price listing, and written in a legible manner in English, Spanish and Creole.Additionally, the Fourth Circuit recently ruled that automatic gratuities are not tips as defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) in Wai Tom v. Hospitality Ventures LLC No. 18-2509 (4th Cir. Nov. 24, 2020) and can therefore not be included in tip pools without violating the FLSA. Further, Revenue Ruling 2012-18, defines automatic gratuities as service charges, which are considered restaurant income. The IRS clarified that in determining whether a payment is a tip or service charge the following must be considered: 1) The payment must be made free from compulsion; 2) The customer must have the unrestricted right to determine the amount; 3) The payment should not be the subject of negotiation or dictated by employer policy; and 4) Generally, the customer has the right to determine who receives the payment. The IRS concluded that the absence of any of the four factors creates a doubt as to whether a payment is a tip and indicates that the payment may be a service charge. Thus, automatic gratuities—which fail to meet the criteria above—are service charges. This implies restaurant employers cannot attribute automatic gratuities toward an employees’ overall wage using tip credits in order to meet the applicable minimum wage standard.Again let it go you made your point. but it was questionable & you did not let me explain as you cut me off & became defensivenext time just listen even if you don't agree but don't blow off keep it chill! that's the responsibility of an owner.anyways let cut it, have yourself many prosperous years a head.

It was good. Wasn't expecting corn wrapper on my empanadas. Wasn't crazy about that. Chicken/beef enchiladas were good.

Food great. Service was lacking I guess because of an automatic 15% gratuity, I felt they would serve when they felt like it.
