“This place is a definite must try! It’s billed as Latin/Asian fusion and the menu is so eclectic. I had the Ropa Vieja Beef Bowl and added an egg. I cannot say enough good things about this meal. It was amazing-so many flavors, so delicious. Me and my friend also split the funky monkey fries. Do not pass these up-they are incredible. Although this was my first time here, I will definitely be back. There was too much on the menu that I want to try.“

“Such a cool vibe at this well decorated Latin American fare restaurant! Our family went there for brunch so had both the brunch & lunch menus available to us - the empanadas that we treated as starters were phenomenal and so many choices for the mains. Corey was our server and he was phenomenal, embodying the can-do, customer-first spirit.....and super friendly. Cant wait to go back there for a dinner next time!“

“Excellent authentic Nicaraguan cuisine! The grill pork steak and grilled chicken dishes are rich in flavor. Large portions and savory spices. Highly recommend trying this place. The fried plantains are delicious and cooked to perfection. The beans and rice are also very tasty with flavor. St. Louis’s hidden gem ?“

“Come often and never disappointed. Yesterday had Margarita', chicken wings & cheese dish. Everything was Amazing. The owner always speaks and the staff makes sure everything is to your liking. 1st class & best Mexican is St. Louis.“

“I have never had Honduran food before visiting Sueño and let me just say...shoutout to the people of Honduras because your food is incredible! I started off with a drink and I ordered the strawberry margarita. Sueño uses a fresh strawberry puree that they make in house and it was literally the best margarita that I've ever had. It was so good that I ordered two of them. lol For my entree, I ordered the Pollo Con Tajadas. It's also known as Pollo Chuco which means 'chicken with slices'. The entrée is made with fried plantains topped with fried chicken, cabbage salad, pico de Gallo salad, onions, and sauces. It was so flavorful and filling! There was nothing but crumbs left by the time I was done eating. lol I will most definitely be coming back to try some other items on the Sueño menu.“

“My cozy place.. very delicious food... very clean and the girls who serve very friendly and attentive.. I went with my family this weekend.. we ordered some baleadas, roast beef and some plantains.. tasty, we loved everything! !!! Let's support Latin restaurants...let's support our Central American people!!!!“

“since moving down to the area finding good mexican food has been a struggle. the food is either sub-par or the food is pretty good but crazy expensive. this place hits both boxes. The food was very good. The price was just right, about $30 for two adults with no alcohol. the salsa wasn't a standard I'd say american salsa that nasty blan tomato paste they put out at most places. this had tons of flavor as well as tasted very fresh. I will say there hotter salsa which is usually my go to just tasted like Puréd Jalapeño I'd go back to the drawing board for that one. The food on the other had was very good, filling, and as mentioned very well priced. we will be going back during happy hour for some good food and hopefully better margs.“

“Had the Chicken Taco on Hard shell special. Tacos were hot and crisp even after the walk home. Place has been upgraded and has a wonderful ambiance and many go for the food, bar, and virtual gaming. Try it for yourself and write about it this local staple of Lansing.“

“Keep trying to give this place chance after chance. When we do go it's always a Saturday evening around 8. We are given menus but sit and wait 15 mins or more for service. They usually get our drink order wrong, or it's the food. Maybe there's a language barrier. Tonight my credit card wasn't given back to me. Thankfully, I was down the road getting gas and realized it. We will find another place next time.“
