I got the keto plate here, they were all great. The tamarind drink and sweet plantain side was also delicious
Too Expensive for What You Get..I visited this restaurant yesterday and left with mixed feelings. I was charged $11 for 2 pupusas — which I usually pay around $3 to $3.25 each for elsewhere — and overall, I found the pricing to be much higher than expected. I spent $37 for 2 empanadas, 2 pupusas, and a medium-sized container of food, which felt overpriced given the portion sizes and quality.
The food itself was okay — not bad, but not particularly memorable either. The ambience is actually quite nice, and the space is clean and comfortable. That said, the dining area was completely empty during my visit, and most people seemed to be picking up takeout.
While I appreciate the effort in presentation and service, the value just isn’t there for me. I’d recommend it only if you’re in the area and not too concerned about price.
I visited this restaurant, which was exactly what I expected. The decor is nice. It’s a sort of buffet-style setup where you get three sides and meat. Overall the food was just okay slightly salty and a bit average for the price. Friendly staff and a clean environment. I will not be going back.
The nicest people and the most delicious food!
Maybe dining in might be better. Take out not so great. Tried 1st time today food wasn't to great.
Man oh Man That Meal Was Delicious I Had Pernil with RedBeans and White Rice with that Green Sauce and man it’s time for a nap that meal was excellent and flavorful WOW
Nice friendly
I want today and got the beef stew and I live right down the street I want to eat it and it was cold and this was done on a steam tray table
Food is Incredible! Best place to work! People are ❤️!
The staff were nice but the food was not good. We all got food poisoning.
I am responding to Latin Porte comment. I am not a competitor business. I visited Latin Port on Friday with my husband and son. After my husband became sick , throwing up for 2 days my son also became sick. I didn't like the taste of the food so I didn't eat much of the food so I wasn't affected. The food in general did not have good flavor nor did it have seasoning as expected from a Latin restaurant. We will not be returning nor our friends who share our same feeling about the food

My 1st time there. The food was so delicious. I will be returning
I’ve been coming to this spot for a while, and I’m finally done. The food is decent, but the pricing and treatment are wildly inconsistent—and it happens every single time.
One day the soup with rice and a few plantains is $6. Then suddenly it’s $7. Then $8. Then $9—for the exact same thing. Different containers, different portions, different pricing—depending on who’s working and how they feel that day, apparently.
I’ve had employees give me attitude and question my order. I’ve had the price changed mid-payment while my card was being charged. I’ve watched the owner go from friendly to transactional and dismissive. And it’s always something.
As someone who works in marketing, I can confidently say this is not how you treat regular customers. I gave this place chance after chance, hoping it would settle. But they’ve made it clear they don’t value loyalty, consistency, or respect.
If you like guessing games with your total and being treated like a nuisance instead of a regular, go for it. Otherwise, I’d look elsewhere. I am.
Amazing. I can’t wait to go back. Fresh food and desserts. A must try.
I love that you can build your own bowl here and the people are always so friendly. Great price point for the amount of food you get.
You must visit this place, such a variety of food selection and delicious, so if you in the area stop by and try it your self 😋.
