We went for lunch. We come here very often but it was always for dinner. Lunch service this time was best food, service, and atmosphere we’ve had. Chicharron was cut thinner than for dinner service which was way more palatable. Rice and beans were very well seasoned. Beef empanadas were great but had more potato than beef. Calamari had a very light batter which was nice. The same day, Ecuador and Peru had a match which we were made aware of by the oversized Ecuadorian and Peruvian...
