The building might confuse you when you pull up since the entrance is on the other side of the parking lot. However, think of it as an indicator of how good the food is that the odd layout doesn’t dissuade people from coming back.
The food is worth it.
I usually judge a restaurant by the quality of their side dishes. The level of care Area 337 put into what seems like an afterthought for most restaurants is telling.
I’ll be back the next time I’m in town.

What a great spot! Unique and delicious food and outstanding service. We came unsure of what to get but were guided by the owner/manager and had incredible meals. Our server was new but was extremely nice and helped us have a great experience. Would definitely recommend!

Really good place to go with someone who you love, care and enjoy food, not a fancy place ambient is open, not big, easy access, children may have to be managed, have a bar seating space and eating space separate by columns and half walls, parking has good size but tricky going by gps direction.

Authentic taste but selection is limited so you gotta know your stuff coming in
The new location is so nice, the natural plants is a great touch! The mojitos are the best ever.

I’ll never stop thinking about the food here. Every single thing we tried was incredible. I have to try everything on the menu at this point. It was such a nice cultural peak into different Latino dishes and I’ve never had such a genuine interaction with a server before. Vayceilya (I really hope that was her name, I’m going off of the receipt and I can’t remember introductions 🥲) made us feel so welcome and shared with us what dishes meant a lot to her and it made the experience soooo much more authentic. I’m afraid nothing has compared to this dining experience for me in such a long time and I’ll be chasing that high forever.

Came here for my girlfriend's birthday dinner and our server Vaceilya was extremely kind, welcoming, and professional. She recommended 6 different things and all were great, everything personally to us was rated 9/10 or higher,we will be coming back. This dinner quite literally made her birthday and we are super grateful.

Latin fusion menu, lovely idea, badly executed. We were visiting the town and selected this eatery to try. Unfortunately we did not have a good experience. The place needs better ventilation, the server was inexperience borderline inept (too long to explain), the food was extremely greasy, dripping grease and gross, the cloth napkins had a peculiar odor, we had to request paper ones and wait for the server to find them. Some of the food was a ok. But not really good. Although the place seems to be clean, the material of the booth seating was pealing which gives a bad first impression yet there were some elements of the décor that we found nice. Really sad because we loved what we read about the place and the food sounded fantastic, but reality bites as the saying goes. We wish them well and hope they can figure a better way forward. Good luck!
Everything was delicious.
