50 Best Latin American Restaurants near North Lauderdale

“FIRST OFF!!!! Tacos are amazing, off the chain. Our server was Yami, she provided great service and was very attentive. Not as busy tonight but so service was a bit faster. What started at 3 tacos ended up being 5 tacos and 1 to go. The salsa verde and spicy sauce they have are savory and flavorful. You can tell they marinate their food for long lasting favor. Anyone who read this, PLEASE CHECK THIS PLACE OUT. Ask for Yami“

“I love this store. Food is exceptional. Service is always wonderful. These people truly work together as a team. Manager is always on point leading the staff and everybody does their part like a well oiled machine. The cooks are communicative to each other so food quality is always excellent. Desserts are the only thing that needs improvement. They have a rewards program and prices are good, portions are perfect. Makes me sad to see all the Uber Eats deals for this place because it is just as cheap and sometimes cheaper if you pick it up to order from the store and you get the rewards. The store loses money with Uber Eats orders. They dont need Uber Eats. They can run that deal in-house. Uber Eats is a money grabbing business ruiner. Greedy bastards. This store deserves better. Will always come here and show love and no more Uber Eats since I did a pick up and saw everything. Come visit!! You wont regret it.“

“I Would Like To Speak On One Of The Managers That’s Been Helping Me (TEAONA). I Came To This Store Multiple Times And This Store Never Smelled This Clean. Every Time I Come To This Store And I See Her She Always Doing Her Job. This Is One Of The Best Managers That I Have Seen So Far At This Store. When She Sees Me Or Anybody Sitting At The Table She Comes To Ask Us Is (Everything Okay Or Just Checking On Us Period). She Makes Sure That My Food Fresh And I Like That About Her Because Before My Food Wasn’t Always Fresh Until I Seen This Manager Around & The Store Wasn’t Always Clean Like Now. Keep Her Around Because She Doing A Great Job 👏🏾 She Always Have This Place Smelling Clean And Her Energy Just Brightens My Day,“

“This was the first time at this restaurant in Davie, Florida as I have been to the one in Doral, Florida. My wife and I decided to stop for lunch, we sat down and Dubraska was our waitress. She took our order, which came quickly, and the food was delicious! Everything was very good, in fact, had to take some home. Dubraska was very kind and quick with our order, and I would recommend this restaurant. So the next time you come to Franciscas’, please ask for Dubraska, and she will take care of you! You will love the food and the service as well! Thank you Dubraska! Will see you again soon!“

“Yummy food, great staff and atmosphere“

“When I first started to go there, the food was a lot better, and the portionsizes were huge. Lately, it's been off. I eat there at least 3-4 times a month, and something has changed. I will continue to patronize because I feel it will make its way back to the standard I know and love.“

The best fajitas I have ever had. Breakfast fare was just as good. I believe our group ate there four times in one week for the consistency and quality that we experienced.“

“We are sitting here now. we had the best server you could ask for "Ernesto" I had the short ribs, chimicurro potatoes and the plantains. I have to say this was the best meal and service we have had on our vacation. We can't wait to come back and have Ernesto as our server“

“Excellent mix of Peruvian and Colombian food! This is a hidden gem in Tamarac. I highly recommend!“

“Tengo 3 años visitando este maravilloso restaurant y sin duda alguna es el mejor restaurant de comida peruana autentica del Sur de La Florida. Exquisitos platillos, uno mejor que el otro, espectacular servicio y atencion y un lindo ambiente sencillo pero al mismo tiempo muy bonito y acogedor. La Causa de Pollo que preparan en Salimar es simplemente una delicia culinaria. Los recomiendo 100%“

“I just had the most amazing shrimp Quesadilla!!! The food is always fresh and cooked to perfection 👍“

“The food was amazing. This hidden gem needs to be more popular. The food will have me coming back again.

I also fell in love at first sight today. So there's that.

The quality of food you get for what you pay for is an absolute bargain. As long as I am in the area this will be a regular stop for me.“

“Cuban food. .with a cosmopolitan flair...right across from BCFPA...Can pay a little extra to park your car there“

“This place is a hidden gem! The food is absolutely amazing—everything I tried was delicious, but the pupusa was hands-down the best. So flavorful and perfectly made! The atmosphere might not be fancy on the outside, but don’t let that fool you—the food is what matters, and it does not disappoint. On top of that, Alexia was such a pleasant person, full of great energy, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for authentic, incredible food and warm service, this is the place to go. I'll definitely be back!“

“We visited this restaurant because there are so few, true, Venezuelan restaurants in the area. My daughter's boy friend is from Venezuela and he was a great help for us with the menu. Every thing we ate was wonderful. I'm looking forward to going back. I loved the cute decor. This is definitely a small, family operation which i prefer. The owners and workers were all very kind and friendly, helpful. There is a small selection of grocery items available as well. Even refrigerated and frozen, which we did make a purchase.“

“Absolutely amazing I get lunch 7 days a week, great portions, affordable, absolutely delicious. today I got the creamy chicken from the lunch bar, it did not make it to work it was delicious.“

“New to Pompano Beach and found our Mexican fix! Renata was fantastic and the food was incredible. We will definitely be here weekly .“

“I’ve been here several times! I was never disappointed. Will keep going back time and time again!“

“I discovered this café while browsing Google Maps, and I’ll admit it was a little tricky to find at first. There’s no exterior signage indicating it’s a café, so I had to call the number listed on Google to get directions. Once inside the Glades building at Sawgrass Technology Park, though, it’s worth the effort!

The interior is spacious and filled with natural light, making it a great spot if you want to work or just relax with a coffee. When I visited, it was quiet and peaceful—perfect for focus or casual conversation.

There’s also plenty of outdoor seating in a lovely courtyard with a fountain and gazebo, offering calming water views. Overall, a hidden gem for coffee, work, or just enjoying a serene break.“

“Great food, hospitality, generous proportions, authentic Cuban,Latin dishes, friendly staff excellent service. My group holds a meeting once a month in Hallandale location never disappointed.“

“delicioso todo! muy recomendable.“

“Omg I just came to say that the vaca frita was SOOO GOOD! So flavorful and just right! Not tough or dry! im pregnant (and cuban) and i was craving some home styled cuban cuisine i could get quickly. I came in with a mission, a dream, and a very specific flavor expectation to satisfy this craving and WOW the food was delicious! The masa de puerco was good too, very tender. The black beans were tasty. Reminded me of how my grandma would make them. I'm so happy and satisfied. Portions are really big, keep in mind! I ordered 2 plates expecting smaller portions but I could get away with eating 1 entree with more leftover. Food took about 15 minutes to be ready“

“We love coming to dinner at Gastrobar Latino with our family! The food is authentic and is delicious! The service is always very welcoming and warm. Feels like I’m visiting a South American country with the excellent hospitality we always experience. Juliana, Sandra and Wilson provide great service! Thank you!“

“Rica comida, buen ambiente, excelente atención like!!“

“Usually pretty good. I placed a pickup order online for a Carne Asada Burroto, picked it up, got home and opened it and it was some tacos. I think I got someone else's order. Called to see if I could bring it back and get the burrito I ordered and it immediately goes to voice mail repeatedly. Oh well...guess I'm having tacos? Tell me you're tired of doing this without telling me you're tired of doing this.“

“Total hidden gem! The place is small but has enough tables. The stand out really is the food quality. If you want home made taste this is the place. Pupusas were delicious and super fresh. Prices are excellent. I couldn’t recommend enough“

“Professional, amabilidad, atenta. Excelente servicio. Primera vez que mi esposo y yo vamos. Fue por recomendación. Excelente por cierto. Definitivamente volveremos. La comida de sabor exquisito… Como clienta nueva les dejo saber que un restaurante es sobresaliente en su comida y su éxito por las personas que componen el restaurante. Ósea los que atienden a los clientes. Los que nos cocinan. Sin esas personas el restaurante no saliera adelante…. Para Meri, la muchacha que nos atendio excelente servicio al cliente. Muy atenta y amable con nosotros todo el tiempo.“

“Highly recommend everything I’ve tried so far from the burgers, kabobs, and sides“
