Incredible! Ate here for lunch today and got the pork mofongo, a steak jibarito, and agua fresca (passion fruit and tamarind). Everything was amazing. Loved how tender the pork was and the plantain mash was perfect. The steak was delicious and the drinks were refreshing. We will be back!
Must try flan. You might have to call in a day ahead, as it flies off the shelves. Small hurdle to get over, this flan is worth every penny and minute of waiting.
Also got the Jibarito the other day, a sandwich in between two fried slices of plantain. As someone who cannot digest gluten all too well, I appreciated this dish and recommend you get it too.
Food was very good, ordered pupusas. Perhaps I went at an odd time (1pm on Friday an hour after opening) but the restaurant was very quiet with no music or fan or anything. While the tables were clean, the floors were a little sticky. Maybe they could play some music or something to make it less awkward
