What a bad experience it is the first and only time I have entered this restaurant. From the beginning it was a bad vibe, we decided to stay and see how the rest went and it was total disappointment. First, the young lady who attended us, with zero courtesy, I meant saying thank you repeatedly and we never heard a "you're welcome" or "with pleasure" with zero empathy from her. Well, secondly, the food, the Honduran tacos, nothing out of this world in flavor, said by my husband who is from Honduras, I tried the simple baleada, it was normal for me because they exceeded the amount of cheese, it felt very salty but good. The worst and third thing was when paying for the water juices that we ordered, they said $4.99 and the young woman charged us $5.99 for each juice so I told her on the menu it says that with milk it is $5.99 and with water it is $4.99 she didn't answer me anything she just checked the menu and without explaining it told me you can now swipe the card. I did it seeing that the amount had not changed. Very very bad experience indeed and it was not at all the peso or two that I paid for Mas, but rather the bad attitude that people have when it comes to running a business. My husband ended up scolding me for having been nice to the girl, he told me so much saying thank you and she didn't even answer, I responded to me that's how I was educated but well that day we went in with the purpose of spending a pleasant time in a new place and more to be Hispanic and this little person was in charge of damaging the moment. For the owners, they should pay more attention to who they hire or just that it is from their family, if that is the case there is nothing to fix.

Very dissatisfied because I ordered a roast beef without a horrible taste. I regret spending so much on something that was not worth it. I thought that since it was the first time it would be good, but the truth is that everything is very bad. I think they have no style or flavor to cook.
John Hernandez
Do not judge it by the appearance. It is simple in decoration but they know how to cook Puerto Rican and El Salvadorian food. We had 3 orders of Mofongo & Tostones with MayoKetchup, an order of Papusas (bean and cheese) and the beans and rice were fantastic. Genesis was sour server and she was so kind and attentive. Fantastic experience for the 3 of us. Wish we lived in the area so we could visit often.

To quote an old Samurai proverb, "To be a Samurai is to be fearless in the face of death; to live without regret, and to live fully." If I have one regret in this life, it's that I didn't pay nearly enough attention in Spanish class while in school. However, I did not think that Spanish would supplant English as the de facto working language of Brevard County. It's not quite like that, but Spanish is far more prevalent today, especially in the food service industry than in the '80s. With a large influx of Spanish-speaking immigrants to the area, this is to be expected; however, I still think it behooves one to be at least moderately fluent in the language of the country in which you open a service-based business. It doesn't anger me and I don't think, "Speak English or go back where you came from!" I just think that they don't want my money. Case in point: my server at El Sabor De Mi Pueblo in Cocoa, FL was the charming Alva. At least I think she was charming as she had a pleasant smile and seemed to extend a welcoming aura to us; alas as she spoke no English, it was hard for me to determine. Thankfully, we both speak fluent grunts and point so I could place an order. I pointed at the Parrillada Combo Platter, which looked interesting based on the menu description.
I should point out that this is not a Mexican restaurant. They bill themselves as "your local Latin eatery & cafe," although the menu seems Cuban/Honduran, with little to offer from other countries. This is not a bad or even a thing, just an observation. If you're looking for tacos, this is not the place. Please see my review of Taqueria Tesora for authentic Mexican foodstuffs.
Anyway, back to my order. The Parrillada Combo Platter consists of a "hearty plate of seared eats with a fried egg and white rice. The meats include chorizo, fried chicken, steak, shrimp, and fried pork along with sweet plantains and avocado." How can one read that and not order it?
When Alva brought my food out, I was very impressed. Everything looked divine and smelled delicious and so it was with drooling anticipation that I grabbed my implements of culinary destruction and commenced to stuffing the ole pie hole. After one bite, I was reminded of the old American adage, "Looks can be deceiving," as this dish was just above dog food. It wasn't swill, but it was low-grade Sysco drek and I mean absolutely crud. I think everything was cooked properly, but the taste was so horrid I couldn't bring myself to try anymore.

I had not found a Honduran food restaurant and after searching so much I found this placeIt's perfect, the food is delicious, I recommend it 10/10, the service. It is very good without a doubt I will return
What a bad experience it is the first and only time I have entered this restaurant. From the beginning it was a bad vibe, we decided to stay and see how the rest went and it was total disappointment. First, the young lady who attended us, with zero courtesy, I meant saying thank you repeatedly and we never heard a "you're welcome" or "with pleasure" with zero empathy from her. Well, secondly, the food, the Honduran tacos, nothing out of this world in flavor, said by my husband who is from Honduras, I tried the simple baleada, it was normal for me because they exceeded the amount of cheese, it felt very salty but good. The worst and third thing was when paying for the water juices that we ordered, they said $4.99 and the young woman charged us $5.99 for each juice so I told her on the menu it says that with milk it is $5.99 and with water it is $4.99 she didn't answer me anything she just checked the menu and without explaining it told me you can now swipe the card. I did it seeing that the amount had not changed. Very very bad experience indeed and it was not at all the peso or two that I paid for Mas, but rather the bad attitude that people have when it comes to running a business.
