I said one time I loved Spanish food and my friend ran with it. Next on her list of great food was…read more"La Hacienda." And she was right, it was good, but I had some concerns. It's street parking, but that's normal in Hempstead. The outside of the building fit popular 90's store fronts. So it made me reminiscent of the past. Inside I was a little surprised. The place was a bit run down. Tables were not wiped clean and the wood trim around the food looked questionable. But those things don't stop me from eating. The staff behind the counter were incredible! They talked to everyone. When the restaurant started to get more customers walking in, they were on it. The woman who helped us was incredibly friendly and helpful. She explained everything and what it was (my friend translated for me) and I made my selections. The woman waiting on us offered me some kind of sauce. I figured "when in Rome." We took our plates and started eating. I instantly thought how glad I was to take that sauce. I wish I remembered the name of it. But trust me I took the rest home. The entire meal, including the sauce, amazing! That ring that looks like a donut, was in fact, not a donut, but I will recommend you try it, if you stop in. I will definitely be back. With all the other selections down the assembly line they offer, I have my work cut out for me. I mean, I didn't even try the rice yet.

Full Disclosure: I've known the owner for years, but this review is truly an unbiased opinion…read more Good tasting food and cleanliness is very important in the food service industry. I've taken a tour of their kitchen before, and I can conclude that everything is in tip-top shape. The chef has been there for many many years and can do wonders with her food ingredients. If you truly want to taste Home-Made Salvadoran food (like Mama's secret recipe good), I suggest you stop by Las Brisas De El Salvador and give it a try. I've came here at least a dozen times and I'm still in love with their food! Also, the place has a super cute interior of sceneries from El Salvador. 1) Milk Shakes: I think I've tried almost all of their flavors and Honeydew, Cantaloupe, and Papaya shakes are personally my favorites. 2) My dad and I love their beef soup and my mom prefers their chicken noodle soup. 3) My mom LOVES their pupusas. FYI: I swore they had an english-verison menu a couple of years ago, but now it's all in spanish. However, they knew exactly what I wanted when I came here to order take-out. I would order new things, but unfortunately my 3 years of high school spanish did not do the menu any justice. I really missed the waitress that used to work there about 2 years ago, she was super awesome! Oh yea, it's CASH ONLY and there's a HUGE parking lot in the back!

If you're just normally hungry, skip it because the entrées are more than enough. I had the steak with mushrooms and onions. The steak itself was cooked well, but I would've loved more mushrooms, and personally I think it would pair much better with rice and beans instead of French fries. The chicken options also felt a little limited compared to the long list of steak dishes. The appetizers could use some love too. Three empanadas on a plate and calling it an appetizer felt a little... phoned in. Give us a little flair! Service was a bit confusing because it seemed like everyone was helping every table, so we never really knew who our actual server was. We asked for the check because we had a show to get to, got an "okay," and then watched our server head over to another table first. Cue everyone checking their watches. The drinks were tasty, but I'm still on the fence about whether they were freshly made or not. Overall? It was a decent experience. The portions are generous, the steaks are the star of the menu, and there's definitely potential here. Would I rush back? Maybe not. Would I tell you not to go? Also no. This is one of those places where you'll have to grab a fork and decide for yourself.

This spot is totally Salvadoran. The music, the patrons and the friendly spirits. They allowed employees to smoke a hookah while working behind the bar. I thought it strange but hey that's another generation thingy. I had a beer and tequila shots - asked for bud light but received coors light, and she said the only difference is it's not a B it's a C. I found that cute and true and laughed. It's only a weak chaser behind my tequila. Anywho, the food was terrific. Piping hot, crispy fries and snappy shrimps that had the craziest cheese pull. I dug in like a savage because I was so hungry and now tipsy. I didn't care who was looking at me. A 4star experience and I would go back after I visit the other location on the Mile.
