I ordered Yuca and Chicharron, and I was pleasantly surprised! El Rancho (that occupied this…read morelocation previously) was one of my favorite spots for Peruvian and Latin American food, so I was saddened when it closed. Well, I'm happy to say that Hundu Pollo is a worthy replacement...at least with this first visit. Reviewing the diverse menu of Honduran and Peruvian items, at first I was going to play it safe, but I decided, let's see what they can do. I'm picky with Yuca as it is usually too dry, and I'm even pickier with Chicharron as it tends to be too dry, overfried, cold, or some mix of the three. That was not the case here. Although not obvious at first, there was a LOT of large, chunky Chicharron under the slaw and sauce. And, the sauce soaked into the Yuca just enough to be perfectly balanced and not dry at all. This place is not only delicious, it is a bargain for the amount of food that you get. I could barely finish half of the platter myself, and there's no way I have room for the chicken empanada I got with my order. I will be back...many times! Check them out!

I'm so glad we did! Upon entering, it's a cozy, casual spot with plenty of tables where you seat yourself. The ambiance leans more cafeteria-style than low-lit date night, but the service makes you feel right at home. The staff were super friendly and quick to take care of us from the start. As soon as we sat down, they brought out warm tortilla chips and bottled salsa. The salsa tasted completely homemade--both were fantastic. All four of us ordered the fajita dinner. I got the chicken, steak, and shrimp combo, and it was incredible. The meat was so well-seasoned and flavorful that when I wrapped it in the tortilla, it didn't even need extra toppings; just a dab of sour cream was plenty. My only recommendation is to ask for a seperate plate to put the fajita stuff, because they give oit to you on a sizzling plate and if you eat slow, it will overcook and dryout the meat. Pro Tip: Ask for a separate plate to transfer your meat and veggies onto. They serve everything on a piping-hot sizzling platter, so if you're a slower eater, moving it off the iron keeps the meat tender and prevents it from overcooking or drying out. I only wish we didn't live three hours away, or I'd easily be eating here every single week. Highly recommend stopping by!

Freezing, I walked along 11th street on a Tuesday evening searching for Benito's Place. An old…read morefriend had suggested it but..I couldn't find it. I walked a little back and forth, but.. no. Across the street, I saw another Mexican restaurant on the corner, but it looked closed, or even shut down. Maps told me it should be there. Looking across the street my eyes were drawn to the second floor, and a series of neon lights for a tarot card reader and psychic. Taking this as a sign, I crossed. That's when I found Benito's and realized that it's neon sign was out. Walk too fast and you might miss it. A narrow door aside a bay window lit from inside. It's a small place with a warm, cozy feeling. Benito's is very much a neighborhood Central American restaurant, but FYI: no alcohol. Started with guac and chips, usual fare, delicious but nothing that singled it out. I ordered the Pollo a la Plancha and it was rather good. The chicken was grilled through but not tough, it still had moisture and you could cut it. Rice, greens, etc. and the small 2oz solo of black beans, all standard fare. The corn tortillas were interesting, not your usual thin tortillas, so it took my mind a moment to consider what I was holding. It had the thickness of a pancake, maybe a sope base, and reminded me of thick, handmade tortillas when you don't have the press. Curiously, the tortillas were not the same that my friend got with his Mole Poblano, which were thin. Granted, it was a cold Tuesday evening, but in two hours only two other individuals came in to eat. Seems like they do brisk take away business. I expect on a warmer night with higher foot traffic this place fills up quickly. The service was great, did not want for anything. We were served with two containers of sauce, green and orange. Ostensibly green chili, and habanero, I did not learn specifically however. When I dine in DC I can't help but confront the blunt question: Was it worth it? Yeah, it's good food, good people, and a good place. You'll feel comfortable there and leave full. But the price of dining out is too damn high, and this meal is on the higher side of what, ten years ago, would have been $15. I fear that prices will continue to be pushed higher and places like Benito's might disappear, so get over there because the food excellent, the people are nice, and it's just a warm space to hang out for an hour or so talking to an old friend.

Speaking of homestyle vibe, I will say that the waitress working during my visit provided excellent service. She was very friendly and provided a few recommendations to get me oriented. For my dining pleasure, I went with a cheese pupusa and the seafood soup. First, I'll say that you will receive a generous portion of soup with various bits of seafood (clams, mussels, shrimp, and bits of fish). The soup was about $23, which I thought was fair for the area. Unfortunately, I found the soup to be a bit bland. However, that was not a big deal because the restaurant has several delicious varieties of hot sauces. To be honest, I did not have an issue with the blandness of the soup. However, I was a bit disappointed that the mussels had a bit of very old/fishy taste. After having one mussel, I decided it wouldn't be worth it to have the rest. Interestingly, the other seafood bites in the soup were fine. Although the service was great, which is the main reason this review is 3-stars instead of 2-stars, I do not think I'll visit in the near future.

I thought the meat and tendon was pretty good, but the vegetables really weren't good. The plantains were not fully cooked through and were hard in the middle. They also had that frozen aftertaste when something has been frozen for too long. The carrots and cabbage were also undercooked, and I think they might e expected the soup to cook the rest, but it resulted in uneven textures food. Fortunately the soup was really good as well. It came with eztra tortillas, but idk if the soup is a good combo with it because the soup doesn't stick to the tortillas, so it's a very thin soup with tortillas that are pretty bready.
