A really good Honduran restaurant in Chicago! Something we have been looking for for a long time. Pleasantly surprised with the food, really authentic. Start off with Jugos de natural (natural juices) either w or w/o leche (milk) I had the carne asada dinner (skirt steak) which comes with beans, rice, salad, cheese, avocado and tortilla. The meat was a little wrk done, so you should tell them in advance how you want it cooked. Each Sunday they have a different soup available for purchase (sopas de fin de semana). The restaurant is small and very casual, it looks like they have a very brisk carryout business. I want to go back here to try one of the fish dinners and one of those special soups that are only available on Sundays.

Arguably, the best bargain in town! To the Casual Observer, this may seem like any other typical Hispanic restaurant, but a meticulous and adventurous Diner, will quickly notice some differences. Like the sides of Yuca instead of potatoes, the chismol dressing and the cabbage salad, to accompany the meat of your choice. The "Baliadas": a simple street food (like a taco) usually served in early morning in Honduras, but available any time at Savor Catracho. Try one of the weekend specials, such as the "Sopa de Res" (beef and bone marrow soup) or the "Mondongo" ( an elaborate tripe soup with optional coconut).  Some specials are only available one weekend per month. Try the "Yuca con Chicharron", the "Tamales", the fish or chicken dishes; and be prepared to be impressed. My only complaint is that, for my taste, they tend to overcook the meats, my suggestion would be to ask them to cook it medium.

After living in Honduras for a year, my wife and I craved some Baliadas - a typical street food (similar to a Mexican Taco).

The food is legit. It took me back to friends and family in South Florida. My hubs was very happy!…read moreThey took pride in their food and checked with us to make sure we were happy. Eyes were a bit bigger than our stomach so we took leftovers back to the hotel and they are STILL GOOD. Hubs did the Carne Asada rice bowl and I did the Yuca con Chicharrón. I love places that represent their culture well and it isn't yet another franchise.

Desde que me mudé al área, había querido visitar este lugar, ya que me gusta apoyar restaurantes…read morehispanos. Como no soy de Suramérica y no conozco todas las gastronomías, en ocasiones, antes de ordenar, pregunto sobre un plato u otro para tener la certeza de ordenar algo que me llame la atención. Pues aquí sabía que quería probar la yuca con chicharrón, ya que la había probado en otro restaurante y en esa ocasión sí me había gustado, así que aquí solo pregunté sobre las baleadas. La muchacha que me atendió muy cortés no era; hasta cierto punto sentí que preguntar la había incomodado un poquito. Yo igual no pregunté más nada para no molestar porque es posible que estuviera cansada o algo así. Aparte de la baleada y la yuca con chicharrón, ordené un nacatamal porque ese sí lo había probado anteriormente y me gusta mucho. Lástima que aquí solo tenía una pieza de pollo tal cual está en la foto; para el precio debieron haberle agregado un poquito más porque, de lo contrario, mejor hubiese pedido arroz... La baleada estaba buena, creo que fue lo que más disfruté del lugar; tenía buen sabor. Me hubiese gustado agregarle aguacate, pero no me dijeron que podía agregarlo hasta que el muchacho muy amable de la caja me preguntó si tenía incluido aguacate. Él amablemente me preguntó si quería agregarlo, pero teníamos ratito esperando, así que para no seguir aguantando la fila, le dije que no. Mi amiga ordenó carne de res, yuca frita y arroz; todo estaba bueno de sabor, solo que la cantidad de carne fue bien poquita en comparación a otros lugares y el precio. Quise probar este lugar para llevar a mi familia que viene a visitarnos en unos días, pero después de visitarlo creo que por ahora no vuelvo. Es posible que en un futuro me anime, pero creo que mejor daré oportunidad a otros lugares del área. El servicio fue más o menos; el cajero fue más amable y atento, el ambiente casual y agradable. El parking un poco incómodo.

Today was one of those days where I needed a GOOD meal. I'm talking it feels like love is in the…read morefood and I am so happy that I chose Garifuna! I grabbed the 2 meat, 3 side special which included: stewed chicken, jerk chicken, rice and peas, cabbage and plantains. There's a solid amount of food and I'm going to be eating on this over the next two days. There's rice and peas were incredibly flavorful, moist and had a hint of spice. The stewed chicken's skin was falling off! That's how tender it was and I love anything with bell peppers and onions. The cabbage was solid with great crunch. Sometimes it can get too mushy, but this didn't. The plantains were just right!! Great palate cleanser as I transitioned to the jerk chicken! And the jerk chicken was a hit!!! Good amount of spice and flavor! And juicy! I also had extra jerk sauce on the side. Hmmmm I honestly enjoyed both chickens and would say if you're unsure of which to get, just get both... you'll definitely order from here again lol I ordered through uber eats and naturally was PRAYING that my order was correct and it was. A nice hefty serving and of course I also have a slice of the caramel cake. Mannn this slice of cake is so dang delicious. The two miles that I run tomorrow for this will be so worth it! This hit the spot and was the meal I needed after the day that I've had!

I had never been to the brick-and-mortar location until now. I stopped in one Sunday afternoon to a restaurant that was not busy on the inside. I noticed there was a steady stream of individuals coming in for carryout. Nevertheless, I had a sit-down so that I could try a few items. I ordered the Belizean appetizer sampler. This came as panades, garnaches, and conch fritters. I liked the panades, which were corn patties stuffed with buffalo fish. They were nice and flavorful. The garnaches reminded me of Venezuelan tostadas. I think that what was a miss for this dish was the drizzle of ketchup. Since I stopped using condiments from grocery stores, the flavor of such tends to ruin dishes for me. I liked the conch fritters. I would order those by the bagful just to have for snacks. My main dish was the stew chicken with rice and beans and a side of plantains. Surprisingly, this was more like baked chicken. There was no hint of cumin, cloves, or garlic. There were no tomatoes. There wasn't a sauce or a gravy. There was flavor, of which I give them that, but the same stew that I've had in Belize and in my Belizean friends' home was not served here. It very well may be that the dish prepared here simply differs from that which I have had before. It wasn't a bad thing. Not everyone prepares every dish the same way.
