I LOVE the food here. Similar to Mexican food but definitely has its own flavor.The food is so so fresh, there is a fresh salsa bar. I highly recommend the chips and guacamole. It so fresh, and not spicy.My favorite are the Pinchones de Pollo, chicken kabobs, with double rice.They also sell Latin snacks and treats.

The Churrasquito Chapin was great. It was fun for the kids, too - lots of interesting snacks and candy (and a cool bar).

Don't judge a book by it's cover is a phrase that best describes this place. Food is great!! Friendly service. Would love to see them in a better building.
I had dinner with my family here tonight and the food is 10/10. I ordered the churrasco and it was amazing! The Guac is so flavorful. Amazing customer service.

I need to share this place with everyone. I cannot keep em a secret any more. Their food is authentic, the atmosphere makes it feel real. The staff is passionate about what they are doing. Real good food. They serve alcohol as well, BONUS! I LOVE THEIR PUPUSAS! MUY BIEN! It is small and fills fast, so get there before dinner rush.Don't skip their fried plantains!

It was great food. But I am spoiled on Mexican food lol. They didn't have white cheese dip. So I was disappointed. But the food surprised me. It was excellent. Would recommend to anyone. I wish they would have white cheese dip. Spoiled girl.
