Just randomly walking down main street on a beautiful Friday and I smell empanadas. I did not know…read morethis place existed. Then I'm told they have limited hours. It is more of a pop-up. Someone selling delicious empanadas out of what looks like a tech start up firm. Not a sit down, there is a window you can order from and sit outside. A little quirky, but the empanadas were worth coming back to.

Great store for Latin America food, plenty of options for Brazilian needs…read more The store doesn't look very clean, and you need to be careful about the grains, unfortunately I've found a bug once at the Brazilian corn flour (flokão/cuscuz). Besides that... if you sanitize everything when you get home, would be a good place to find home country tastings.

When I went to checkout, there was no one at the registers. After waiting 10 minutes and calling…read moreout to the guy cooking multiple times (who wasn't wearing a mask and initially ignored me), I eventually got his attention and he went and got the other employees. Also, when I eventually found the employees, the majority weren't wearing masks or social distancing. I won't be returning.

Had some delicious tacos from their truck at Mothfire Brewery. The carnitas and birria were great…read morebut I think my favorite may have been the chicken -- very tender and flavorful! My friends ordered burritos which were HUGE and everyone was very pleased. Good report on the empanada as well. Would happily try more of their menu!

Tacos are amazing!!! And authentic, I believe. Tried to find the truck once outside of Wide World…read moreSports Center during stated hours, but was unsuccessful. Not sure the trick yet to track the truck down. However, they do also have scheduled pop-ups at Mothfire Brewery and HOMES Campus which are great opportunities to get these tacos! (Both Mothfire and HOMES publishes their food truck schedule weekly! I find it on their Instagram pages.) Tried a few tacos and a quesadilla and will say the tacos are definitely the standout IMO. Seems like you really can't go wrong with any flavor/meat. Tacos come with onion, cilantro, lime, and a little bit of salsa on the side. Super tasty and flavorful meat. Absolutely recommend! I don't think they take credit card but do take Venmo in addition to cash.

Bottom line up front...some of the best tapas I've had! Went with 5 friends and it was awesome…read moretrying all a bunch of different things. We did 2 paellas and like 8 tapas which was enough for everyone. Even with a bottle of wine and couple of drinks it was very reasonably priced. Great service. Fun atmosphere. We may have been a tad loud but it was so fun! Highly recommend. Will be go to Ann Arbor recommendation. Sorry no pictures, too busy getting after it.

So glad to be back! This time we sat in the center of the restaurant and that was kind of a bummer…read more There's no decor and it's dark and the chairs are not comfortable. Service was great! We celebrated a bday and my cousin got a churros- which was TO DIE FOR! Soft and crunchy, melt in your mouth. Nice cinnamon and sugar with a dark chocolate ganache dip. Great combo of sweet and savory! We had the blue tuna tapa and it was soft and delicate. We shared but I really think it's a one person dish. The steak with romesco sauce tapas was OK but not my favorite. The meat was too chewy for me. Good size to share The tiny starters: glazed pineapple on goat cheese crostini was good but not worth re-ordering. Yes- shareable. The star is the oxtail paella!! Wow, rich, crunch, juicy and the vinegar from the peppers was a great compliment. Good drinks and wine selections. Next time I'll stick with the seafood selections and the oxtail paella.

Second time and this place and I'll be a return customer!…read more Food is out quickly, it's delicious, it's affordable, and the servers are super nice. The chicken pupusas were DELICIOUS and hot right from the fryer, with tasty, flaky crust and yummy chicken inside. My super baleada was awesome -- very flavorful steak, egg, and avocado to marry the flavors together. A perfect breakfast/lunch bridge meal. Excited to try the Chapin combo next time; my friend ordered it and I was jealous!

You can really taste the authenticity in the food. Tried one of each of the Pupusas, the bean one…read morewas my favorite. All were so good, though. They were the perfect size, very delicious. Not too greasy or anything like that. Lady was pretty nice, helped me fairly quickly. The only picky thing I'd point out is the place smelled like old mop water.

After not eating here for awhile, decided to try it again and it was not at all what we remembered…read more We ate TMAZ religiously for a matter of months and it was SO good. This most recent meal was heartbreaking. The quesadilla was tiny and burnt. The refried beans were soupy. The rice was okay. My tamale was good. Hoping this was just an off night.

Authentic Mexican food is difficult to come by in Ann Arbor so I am really happy I stumbled across…read morethis place. I ordered the taco plate with the asada and al pastor and it was phenomenal. Everything is authentic and the salsas are really good. It reminded me of one of my favorite places back home, and the man working the front was kind and respectful. As fair as the ambiance, it is inviting, but not overly fancy. Would 100% recommend.

I had such an amazing experience at Jamaican Jerk Pit!! The food is always incredible so flavorful,…read morefresh, and just overall chef's kiss. Every time I come here, the vibes are unmatched. It's one of those places where you instantly feel comfortable and surrounded by great energy and even better company. Shoutout to Cameron for being such an awesome server--super friendly, attentive, and genuinely makes the whole experience even better. You can tell he really cares about making sure everyone has a great time. Whether you're coming with friends or just stopping by, you're always in great company here. Definitely one of my favorite spots!!

The flavors hit you right away: smoky bold layered and so full of character that you instinctively slow down just to enjoy it. I had that little eyelid sweat going which is always the sign of the perfect level of heat enough to wake you up but never enough to drown out the flavor. Everything on my plate was a win but the chicken stole the show. It was tender juicy and seasoned with that deep jerk flavor that only comes from someone who knows exactly what they are doing. The rice and peas deserve their own shoutout. The texture was spot on and the seasoning tasted intentional like someone put real care into every step. Then the mango cake came out and completely surprised me. Light moist and gently sweet it balanced the spice from the meal in the best way. The turnover was another standout with buttery flaky dough and a warm spiced filling that made it hard to stop eating. From the first bite to the last this meal felt like comfort joy and craft. Jamaican Jerk Pit is easily one of the best dining experiences I have had in a long time.
