La Guatemalteca is a restaurant that offers authentic Guatemalan cuisine. The restaurant is known for its generous hospitality, especially on Mother's Day, when they treat all mothers to free food and drinks. The menu features traditional dishes like caldo de gallina, a deeply flavored and garlicky chicken broth served with half an avocado and rice on the side. The carnitas breakfast is also a popular choice, with a flavorful but slightly dry meat. The food is delicious - super yummy and you can tell it's a staple in the community. Customers have praised the authentic Guatemalan flavors, with one reviewer saying it brought them back to their years living in Guatemala. The pupusas queso con chicharrones, served with a lovely tomato-y dip, and the soft, caramelized plantains with a delicious sauce, have also received high praise. While the service is generally regular, there have been occasional issues with the saltiness of the broth. Overall, La Guatemalteca provides a taste of home for those with Guatemalan roots and a welcoming atmosphere for all.
