19 Best Latin American Restaurants near Terrytown

“The food is delicious, I like the seafood soup which is divine. The only thing is that the owner should have a sign that says that whoever wants to pay with a card will be charged 4%, but he doesn't have it and his solution is that it is a privilege to use the card and that is why we have to pay, the You do not want to pay your percentage but the client is the one who pays it, communications is the key to a good business, transparency. It is my opinion.“

“The best ceviche in town: so refreshing and tasty, especially on a hot summer day. It’s a huge portion for the price! Their other foods are made fresh and delicious too. The service is great and welcoming, feels like home. I will surely come back to try all of their menu. Highly recommended!!“

“The octopus is amazing! My first time eating it and they nailed how to make chargrilled octopus!“

“I really wanted to hate this place. Another hipster gentrifying the neighborhood with their pseudo-ethnic cuisine. This rich boy, Banksy buying, carpet bagger…. I so very much wanted to hate it. But I couldn’t. It was just too good. The food was delicious. The prices were just right. The authentic tile work and gas station bathroom were absolutely delightful. The servers were raw and righteous. The way the owner spoke…. The little frogs…. The whole vibe just felt right. I couldn’t hate it. I loved it.“

“The food was fantastic and the owner was great! Definitely check this place out for some of the best latin food you'll have!“

“We sat at the bar and Odessa was our bartender . She was amazing! Super kind and answered all our menu questions. The only downside was a server (I think his name was Quinton or Quincy?) was extremely rude to us and to Odessa and other servers. It was honestly super uncomfortable and we felt bad for the other staff. But, food was super tasty and drinks awesome!!“

“This place is absolutely amazing!! We got several empanadas to try. Such a cool find. The staff was friendly and it had a cool New Orleans vibe but different. You can sit and enjoy the views of magazine street and the spinach and artichoke empanadas will make you lick the plate. Hands down awesome“

“This is my favorite restaurant. Staff is kind. I order to go from here all the time. It's always ready when the staff says it will be. I think they have the best burritos and pupusas in town, certainly on the West Bank. The fajitas are incredible and fairly portioned for the price. My daughter loves their quesadillas. Took my brothers here when they came into town too, they loved it as well.“

“Love the tacos and the chicken plate“

“This is truly one of the best restaurants I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. At this moment, I can’t think of another! I was able to try some truly unique cocktails- the Cajulia made with “cashew fruit” juice, and the Batucada made with Batida of Cachaça, passion fruit and coconut milk. I enjoyed every bite of my meal — vegan ceviche, fish collars with Nikkei aioli, and banquette bread topped with Trinidadian curry (today’s special). The atmosphere and bartender really completed the experience. This was my second day in NOLA, but the first time I felt truly welcome and “at home” on the trip.Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating to dairy-free and vegan or vegetarian diet“

“Eaten here several times and I keep coming back because everything is delicious. Staff is friendly and happy to explain the cuisine to the unfamiliar. Price is right too.“

“If you go here you must speak Spanish! The lady working the front area has a very limited English vocabulary. I ordered ? tacos and what I got was flour tortillas with cut up meat as they did not have ground meat. The meat had a lot of grissel which I do not eat. The lady never checked to see if all was good or wanted something else.“

“We had a fabulous anniversary dinner here over the weekend. The food was delicious and the service was exceptional!“

“Nice place to dance, the DJ mixes a great variety of genres and keeps the ambient lively. The only thing I would suggest to keep in mind is the entrance charge (cover) I would understand if they had a live band or something that would merit the charge.They serve beer buckets which is good for those that enjoy beer. They also have a pretty descent variety.I would give this place a 3.5 stars ? ? ?“

“We had ropa vieja and con gris - excellent the platanitos were perfect. The place looks like a hole in the wall but the food is amazing. Don't be deceived this restaurant is very good and well priced. The people working in the restaurant make you feel like you are in your Nicaraguan grandmother's. I'm not Nicaraguan but if I were this would be my grandparents house. Loved the experience.“

“Love the food & atmosphere…Lale & Carlos are the bomb!“
