“Vegetarian options: I could live on pico de gallo so a friend who lives in Trenton recommended this establishment. I live 40 minutes away and holy guacamole it was worth the trip. I ordered a quart amount of pico and the y were puzzled but accommodating. I ate almost all of it and the spices were spot on. No jalapeño and the perfect amount of lemon cilantro salt and pepper!! No need to add salt as it was perfect!!! I will be returning frequently unless you are willing to share recipe!!“
“True authentic Guatemalan food & bakery. My dad always orders from here and the portions are gigantic and the prices are low. It's so difficult trying to find good Guatemalan food or restaurants however this spot offers a very large selection of baked breads and a buffet. The bakery does not offer sit down seating, only takeout. And the tamales are a must try. They have large tamales and little ones but I can't resist buying the large size. Staff is very friendly however the location is not in the safest of areas (probably best to go during the day & not at night). If you're in the area and are looking for Guatemalan tamales you have got to come here!“
“Food was amazing.Need better communication.One thing that makes me NOT wanna go back, is having to walk pass people trying to sell me products outside the restaurant. Other then that good food. The wait is decent. And yes they got bathrooms for paying costumers only.Parking: It's ok. But people try to sell u stuff back their very awkward.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“Last night, as usual, every week I visited my favorite place to buy sweets.. Guatepan.. and since they are celebrating the 20th anniversary, I decided to make this review because many people need to know that if they are looking for something delicious, they should arrive at the door of Guatepan. in Trenton.. and if you want the best service in the world, ask for a girl named Karla because it is through people like her that it is possible to maintain a good business.. my congratulations to all the Guatepan staff and may this 20th anniversary come full of energy for everything your personal …⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ five stars for you guatepan“
“Adopting the identity of a sports bar and restaurant, Chapala II is still basically a two room suite, with beer and tequila in front and dining room in back next to the kitchen. It is a casual space with minimal decor aside from the HDTV high on the wall doing a Spanish version of sports television. When I walked in Friday afternoon for a late lunch, the main door was wide open, but there was no one inside. Still, the tube was showing an American football game with low volume commentary. Stepping over to the kitchen, there were two women getting ready to prepare something and I inquired whether I was in time for almuerzo. I was, indeed. One of the ladies pointed to a table and brought a menu for consideration. She explained that this was a Guatemaltecan casa and that she was the chef. I was talking to the right person. I didn't want a big meal, saw the quesadillas listed and requested them con pollo and horchata. She seemed pleased with my choice. Moments later the other woman delivered chips and salsa. Nothing special there. The quesadilla on the other hand was quite good. It was loaded with chopped chicken, cheese, pepper and onion and served seconds after taken out of the hot steel. The tortilla was crisp, with the runny cheese grilled firm from contact with the pan. The innards were a delicious gooey mess. It was so thick that it was almost quesadilla pie! About the best I've tasted. I should have stopped half way through, it was so filling, but I did not think that reheating would capture how great it was the first time. So, I skipped dinner and walked farther last night. The horchata came in a large mug used for draft beer. It was cool, semi-sweet with a hint of cinnamon and perfect as a washdown for the spicy main dish. Chapala Sports Bar & Resto is another fine, laid back Central American kitchen and bar in the heart of Jersey's capital city.“
“Sabor latino has some really tasty food. I recommend the mofongo and any of the entrees or tacos. It’s good portion size and flavored really well. Drinks are decent here some classic cocktails and beers available. Only downfall here is that everytime I visited it’s been extremely loud and overstimulating. All the servers speak Spanish and a couple know English as-well.“
“I had the absolute pleasure of dining at El Patio Latino, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. The authenticity of the Peruvian cuisine transported my taste buds to a whole new level. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and a genuine sense of hospitality from the staff.The service was nothing short of excellent, with every need attended to promptly and courteously. It's evident that the team at El Patio Latino takes great pride in providing top-notch service to their guests.What truly sets El Patio Latino apart is the ambiance. The entire restaurant is adorned with stunning furniture straight from Peru, creating an atmosphere that's not just delicious but culturally immersive. It's like taking a culinary journey through Peru without leaving your table.But the icing on the cake was when the owner personally came out to chat with us. Their passion for Peruvian cuisine and dedication to creating an authentic experience was palpable. It was fascinating to hear about their journey, and it added a personal touch to the meal.While it's unfortunate to hear that the location in Peru has closed, it's clear that El Patio Latino's presence in Barcelona, Spain, and Sarasota, Florida, is thriving. It's no surprise that people are flocking to experience this exceptional taste of Peru in such wonderful destinations.In conclusion, El Patio Latino is a culinary gem that offers not just outstanding Peruvian cuisine but also a heartfelt welcome and an immersive atmosphere. Whether you're in Barcelona or Sarasota, this restaurant is a must-visit for food enthusiasts and anyone looking for a taste of Peru's rich culinary heritage.“
“Large portions, great service, tasty simple food. We ordered the parrilada mixta for two and couldn’t finish half! It would easily feed 4 people. We are so glad we found this place on our way home.Dietary restrictions: There are multiple gluten free and dairy free options.“
“The empanada I had was great. Food is very reasonably priced. There is a bit of a language barrier but everyone was nice. There are two picnic tables outside you can sit at. Small parking lot and street parking available. No large sign yet, place is on the corner.“
“I've never dined in, but my team and I order staff lunch from here about twice a month. I honestly could eat the pollo al ajillo every few days... it is sooooo good! I always get the same thing every single time lol. Ask for extra sauce if you want to top your rice with the chicken. The food is fresh and flavorful. I always look forward to our lunches from Pura Vida!“
“This place was recommended to us by a friend. I have to say that we are very happy with the food and the pastries. The waitresses are very nice and the service is excellent. Since it was recommended to us we have been there several times. The food never disappoints. Keep up the good work! I hope to see you guys soon ?“
“Been coming to this place over 5 years. The food is amazing, good. This time the breakfast was okay the steak was too overcooked and the maduros you can tell they were cooked in old oil. Despite the other plates always taste amazing. It's a typical Latino busy ambiance.The service was quick and the server was nice and polite.“
“Delicious and authentic Guatemalan food. They serve huge portions which are well seasoned and flavorful. Food is unbelievable quality for the money. The server spoke mostly Spanish but the menu had both Spanish and English. Clean and welcoming environment.“
“I've Known this restaurant for over 10 years. if youre curious about authentic foods and about giving your palate a different cuisine to taste, you will definitely find all that and much more at Frankyes. the food always hits the spot and feels just like it was home made, nothing tastes like it has been frozen. the bar section is spacious and clean. drinks, cocktails, daily specials are always on display. staff service and management are always prompt and welcoming. The Recent Renovations to the place makes it more family oriented and comfortable to dine in and open to host and entertain special events, private gatherings or parties.“
“Shockingly good food and very authentic. The grilled meats are great. The macaroni salad served with some of the meals was unexpected but welcome. Ordering can be difficult due to language issues and because they were very busy. However, they were helpful and patient. Overall, glad I stopped here while in town.“
