“Food is delicious, restaurant is very clean, hours are extremely convenient…they’re always open. Prices are very reasonable too especially for the portion size!If speaking English and ordering by phone the server may switch you to someone else if you have a complicated order due to substitutions etc. Which is very helpful. But communication is easy when ordering a normal menu item with everyone, and very accommodating while asking for something unique. Appreciate it!Like another reviewer said: looks are deceiving. From the outside it looks very casual, on the inside it is spacious and white table cloth kind of place! Very nice.Also for takeout, the food is made pretty quickly. Like whatever amount of time your order would take to cook, quick. So food is fresh made to order and delicious.“

“Good food, bad service. I would give the service another try for the sake of the food but will probably try out other restaurants in the area first. Baleada con frijoles, crema, queso y huevo ($3.50). Surprisingly filling and tasty considering the simplicity of ingredients and the size of the baleada - would get again. Pollo Chaco ($13): This was very strange. The chicken was perfect, nice and crispy and there were a variety of veggies and ingredients on the plantains. I wasn't a huge fan of the sauce. Wouldn't get again, but I was glad I tried it. Horchata: Delicious. Good prices, clean and homey restaurant. However, the waitress seemed a bit rude. She was speed-mumbling when talking to us so we could barely understand her. She did not appear to understand me half the time when I spoke in either English or Spanish and even my mother, who is a native Spanish speaker, could barely understand her. As someone who's been in customer service, I felt she was doing the bare minimum.“
“The food was very tasty, an incredible flavor but I think they give too little rice for the price of the Plate!!!! That's what I recommend with my eyes closed, the baleadas are the best, it's like eating them in Honduras itself, great size and good price!!!“
