It was a warm day and there were 4 fans helping circulate the air. There was also a small stage where a lovely woman sang a mix of Spanish and English songs. She was fantastic! The food was amazing! All of us got different dishes and we all loved them! I got the Ropa Vieja en Lata which was delicious!! It's served in a can that they opened table aide with a short history of lesson as to why. It was a great experience! The reat of the table got the Vaca Frita, the Cuban sandwich, and the Pescado Crujiente. Everyone raved about their food. I'll definitely be back to try their whole menu!

I totally recommend this!…read more Honestly, what got my attention here was the Cuban Fry Mix because it was sweet potato fries and regular fries. I absolutely love love love fries so my husband went and ordered them only for me. I was so touched Cuban Fry Mix - The flies themselves were absolutely phenomenal! So perfectly crispy and not too greasy either. Such a creative idea of mixing both the fries and they actually went really well together. Proper sweet salty vibes! Classic Cubano Sandwich - First time trying a Cuban sandwich and it was actually very nice. Properly loaded with meat and the flavors went well together. It can get quite heavy though because it's quite a big sandwich so be prepared for that! Definitely a nice one to save leftovers though! One down side of this place as a whole though is that they don't offer customizations. I was hoping they could stop out something on the menu for something else or pair some two different items in a combo but they were not able to do that.

So funny story, a couple months back I was ordering just drinks and the person taking my order asked what I wanted to eat instead of will that be all. My brain wasn't fast enough and I panicked and said the first thing that I saw on the menu. It was Cuban nachos. I would never in a million years have ordered Cuban nachos as I'm not a huge fan of the sandwich (I'm a foodie yes, but I have the pallet of like a...17 year old) l. So I got my drinks and the weird looking nachos with tiny cubes of pickles and mustard in them? They. Were. Ah-maaaazing! I would never have thought they were be good but the cosmos must have known I would love them. Ordering them was a very happy accident! The crispy tortilla chips, the warm salty pulled pork, covered in pickle cubes and swished with mustard. O my god it a perfect bite every time and the flavors just bouce gleefully on your tongue. They don't have the nachos anymore but the fries Cuban is just as good. I go to Palavana every time I got to The Garage.

It had fig jam and just loaaaaaaaded with toppings. So good. Full. Happy. Surrounded by love. It's a happy place to be!

Unfortunately, the food did not join me up there. We started with the nachos, which came with what can only be described as "Velveeta cubes: deconstructed." There were literal chunks of cheese that hadn't even melted. I didn't realize I was ordering nachos with a side of arts and crafts. I ordered the chicken enchiladas, and they were... shy. Very shy. Like they'd heard of seasoning but preferred not to associate with it. I kept waiting for flavor to arrive, but it never found our table. To be fair, my husband got the carnitas and actually liked them so there is hope! And I will absolutely give credit where it's due: the service was fantastic. Our server was friendly, attentive, and the best part of the experience. That said, the prices were bold. Confident. Ambitious. For the quality we received, it just didn't add up. We left feeling a little confused and a little lighter in the wallet. I made a sandwich when I got home. Maybe it was an off night, but for now, we'll let everyone else keep the hype.

Yum! The guacamole and plantains were a delicious start. I also very much enjoyed the empanada…read moretrio, which was a unique experience compared to other restaurant empanadas. The table of sauces offered a nice compliment. The cons of the meal was my mojito (and that I wanted a frozen daiquiri but they could only offer it on the rocks). While it tasted nice, the glass was more ice than drink and not worth the price tag. The metal chairs are not comfortable for all guests. The restaurant is quite loud. You will be yelling across the table at each other. I would never come here with a large group because conversation would be impossible. The restaurant takes reservations on Open Table but threatens a charge of $20 pp if you cancel. Based on the crowd waiting for tables, there's no reason this policy should be in place. It was a turn off that almost caused us to pick another spot. Thankfully I took a chance to call and book a table without the request for my credit card. Parking is also tricky in this area. Their parking lot is almost nonexistent! Other spaces are reserved for other buildings. Be careful not to be towed.

Between my two visits, I got the vegan arepa, Venezuelan breakfast plate, tres leches cake cup, and regular and horchata matcha lattes. The vegan arepa was very tasty. It was a little difficult to eat because the arepa was sliced so thinly that it didn't look sturdy enough to pick up, but it was too crispy to easily cut through with a fork and knife. Still delicious though. I had meant to order with the pink sauce but forgot to specify and got what I think was the guasacaca instead, but it was so good that I didn't really mind. The Venezuelan plate was the right balance of simple and flavourful. Great acai bowl. Tres leches was very sweet, but I enjoyed it, and it was a nice individual portion. The regular matcha latte was pretty good, however the horchata was so sweet that I thought it somewhat overpowered the matcha in the horchata latte. I also tried the açai bowl and fresh-squeezed OJ that my family ordered, and would also highly recommend both of those! Whether you're visiting for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, there's a ton of variety including Venezuelan, Mexican, other Latin American, and USAmerican dishes, and some vegetarian and vegan options. The atmosphere is cool with the fake plants on the ceiling, and they had fun Latin music on. The waitress we had both times was friendly and professional, and the food was reasonably quick to come out. Recommended for something different in Bloomington!
