La Guatemalteca Express is a quiet restaurant with an authentic ambiance, featuring embroidered cloths and glass-topped tables. The service is excellent, even for small groups. The food is delicious and well-prepared, focusing on traditional Guatemalan dishes. Appetizers like tostadas and dobladas offer a great way to sample different flavors. Main courses such as carne mechada, carne asada, and horchata are flavorful and refreshing. Guests have praised the Chuchito, a small tamale filled with chicken, and the Tacos Dorados, which are similar to rolled tacos. Other favorites include the Pepian de Gallena, a rich traditional stew, and the Tamal Colorado, known for its soft masa and banana leaf wrapping. The restaurant does not serve alcohol but offers tasty juices like tamarindo and hibiscus. The menu includes a variety of savory dishes, breakfast options, soups, and smaller plates, with many items priced under $10, making it a great choice for lunch. Overall, La Guatemalteca Express is a cozy spot with delicious food, a family-owned atmosphere, and warm service, perfect for any occasion.
