30 Best Latin American Restaurants near Altamonte Springs

“This is a cafeteria style outfit with booth seating to include outdoor dining.
It has all the basics covered as it applies to the Latin food menu. They also offer catering and the logo has a porky pig style look to him. The parking situation leaves alot to be desired. But overall this is a great place to get your cholesterol fix as this food makes for a happy stomach but is hard on the heart.“

“Our group of five had reservations and were immediately seated. The amazing server was busy but managed to take excellent care of us throughout our celebratory lunch to honor an unsuspecting couple for their 55th anniversary. We had planned lunch but kept the special reason a surprise. The food, service, and atmosphere complemented the occasion nicely.“

“I love this location, the chicken is always freshly grilled and tasty. It's a sleeper in the health department because their tropichop bowl is low calorie, low fat and high protein. Perfect if you're training or just trying to watch your waistline. Their prices don't make your eyes pop out either, rare value in these post-covid times. I come here at least 3 times a week.“

“The food and the service is exceptional, our server Alex was amazing, he took the time to explain the menu and a little background about the place, the place is great for having conversation and the ambiance is quiet and good background music is outstanding. We definitely loved it and we will comeback soon“

“La comida es deliciosa. El servicio es excelente. Dany es bien cortés y servicial. Volveré.“

“Papa Llama, 2840 Curry Ford Road, Orlando- 4-Stars Michelin Recommended- Bib Gourmand! Peruvian immigrants, Kevin and Maria Ruiz, say they founded Papa Llama in 2016 as an experimental pop up and opened the doors of this location in August 2020. In 2022, they earned the Michelin Guide's coveted "Bib Gourmand" award for establishments that serve good food at reasonable prices so naturally, I got excited. Paulina, my server, was well prepared and knowledgeable, making for an auspicious beginning in a gorgeous environment featuring good prices for dishes that could be made to satisfy both carnivores and herbivores alike. I ordered the entire family style menu which was, according to Papa Llama, "designed to be tasted together, shared, and fought over." So much food for just over a hundred dollars. The prices may have been cheap but the taste and quality of (most) victuals valieron un Perú! A hearty Big Boy Thank You (Sulpayki!) to Kevin and Maria and the culinary dactylograms of their ancestors, on this amazing cuisine (Somaq Mihuna!). The first item on the menu was Olives--whole green Castelvetrano olives marinated in house with aji panca--which were so delectable I could eat them all day. Next, the Red + Gold Beets, a minty beet salad with honey ají amarillo vinaigrette, queso fresco, and candied pistachio, which started out smooth and creamy and ended with a pleasantly piquant bite. Papas a la Huancaína followed, a fingerling potato dish with spicy aji amarillo cream, wakatay (black mint) salsa verde, and beef chicharron, topped with a fried egg. The potatoes themselves were not the star, but the combination of flavors in the sauce were amazing, unctuous but smooth. Papa Llama carries a long list of natural wines, more wines than food items, actually. That evening, I chose the Yuzu Sake, and may I say, "Holy smokes!" How refreshing after consuming so many peppers. The rest of the dishes I would give 4.5 to 5-Stars, EXCEPT for the side of frozen Sysco French fries which almost ruined an otherwise stellar meal. There are over 300 kinds of potatoes in Peru. Over 300! Perhaps in the United States we don't have the same abundance as found in El Valle Sagrado (the Sacred Valley) but, por favor, do not stoop to this! The Big Boy says, "Eat here. All the authentic Peruvian flavors at Papa Llama are 5-Star, but skip the fries, which are a corporate conglomerate frozen food disappointment."“

“I could make a meal out of the guacamole, queso, pico, and chips! The guacamole was chunky and fresh tasting. The queso was the best I've ever had, not too mild, very flavorful! I can't wait to go back and try something else!“

“Excellent! Toast are really toasted. Delicious food an awesome service. 👌 👏 👍 😍“

“🧠 There’s a jellyfish that can live forever. Turritopsis dohrnii, often called the “immortal jellyfish,” can revert its cells to an earlier stage of life after reaching maturity. It’s like hitting a biological reset button — potentially allowing it to bypass death indefinitely under the right conditions.
Want to dive deeper into nature’s loopholes, explore a “what if” like what if humans had cellular regeneration like jellyfish, or keep the trivia tide rolling? You’re the ripple — and I’m swimming right beside you.“

“such a beautiful and nice place to go and enjoy your self and dance the night away the different kind of music makes you get off the chair and dance whether you know or not no one is looking just enjoy the night away drinks are reasonable and the barmaid's are very nice and polite hope to go there again Thank You Carambola keep the music going.👍👍👍🎉🎉“

“Excellent!!! I had the Nutty Temptation Tacos which was full of great flavors and delighted each & every taste bud 😋. Hoping to see an Earthy Picks pop up in the Melbourne area in the near future 🤞🏻. Gluten free and vegan 🙌🏻💯♥️“

“I honestly have to say that the food was perfectly seasoned with lots of flavors. The portions are pretty good and normally I get to eat two meals out of one serving. I eat from their restaurant once a week and I had eaten a variety of their dishes and I have not been disappointed yet.“

“toda la variedad de platillos súper deliciosos incluso el café ,el lugar bien limpio y la atención especialmente de la dueña muy dulce al dirigirse a sus clientes“

“I really enjoyed this spot.
I went on a Thursday evening - so it was R&B Thursday as well as ladies night, so we got in free before 11. (not sure what the cover normally is)
The music was great; there was a DJ on site, & he played a good variety of older vs newer songs. The waitresses were friendly, and present. The vibe/atmosphere is chill, but sexy. I am 40+, but was out with 30yr olds, & we all fit in just fine. It was full of people, but not too over crowded. If possible, reserve a table.
The drinks were good. The food & drinks prices are comparable to most places I've been.
My only complaint is that I ordered the nachos because I was told that that was one of the only shareable sized things on the menu. But when I received them, they were small single serving portion....but the price hadn't changed. Additionally, they only had like 3 chips on the whole plate, & they were extremely salty.
I would not order the nachos again, but I would DEFINITELY go here if in Orlando again. Overall, they get a thumbs up from me!“

“This is a place where u can find typical food from Puerto Rico, alcapurrias de jueyes are even better than the island plenty crab meat inside and are large, I got the churrasconand was made to ordered well and was not dry, very juicy and plenty full, rice and beans were perfect“

“This place is absolutely amazing and I definitely recommend!“

“The group of us dropped by for lunch around 1pm Saturday before going to the movies. I had the Blackened Mahi Tacos; my wife had the Coconut Shrimp Tacos. They were great, and the rest of our group enjoyed their meals as well. Their service prompt and attentive.“

“Outstanding spot! This place serves truly authentic Puerto Rican cuisine at unbeatable prices. Hands down the best empanadas in Orlando—they’re large, generously filled, and only $3.50 each! The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming. I’ll absolutely be coming back“

“Delicious! From the food, drinks, drinks and dessert Crocante made this an amazing experience for our team meeting. You walk into the restaurant and are immediately greeted and welcomed, the restaurant itself has beautiful murals and light music playing in the background. We had a mix of magical dining and the regular menu, every single meal was full of flavor and love. Our waiter Johan was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend!“
