My boyfriend and I visited this restaurant, and the portions were generous. The owner was very helpful and recommended some delicious sushi that we really enjoyed.
Stopped in for some empanadas and had to grab an order of the Carne de Res Guisada. Excellent portion sizes and it’s always fresh!!
We had chiccharones and goat stew. My Dominican friend said it was the best chicchones she ever ate. Another friend said the goat stew was excellent. I really recommend this place for flavorful food. The owner is so nice and made sure everything was good for us.
