This restaurant we found in Quito, Equator. Now they are in Tampa. The fried chicken and rotisserie…read morechicken is what you need to try. I like the server and manager are mainly Latin American which is very up to service and delivery the food to customers. The fried chicken has good marinated coating. The marinated flavor into the meat which makes it savory. The rotisserie chicken is a bit sour but they are South American flavor. The sides are good. But I like their drink choices. It has horchata, peach mango, and Jamaican hibiscus. Those are very good drink. I recommend the combo if you going there. Price is reasonable.

Super tasty! Employees were great and speedy during rush hour :) would go again…read more I got the nuggets and a chicken sandwich with Yukon fries. The employee gave me a few different recommendations and I tried them out. The one thing I did not like because it was not my cup of tea was the horchata. There was some tangy flavor attached to it? Maybe too much cinnamon I think that over powered my tastebuds but everything else was a 10/10

Loved this place! I'm always looking for good food in Tampa so I was happy to have found this…read moreBrazilian restaurant. First off, the waitress was extremely kind and friendly. She welcomed us in with a warm smile, and explained the items on the menu. The restaurant was clean and decorated for the World Cup. My partner and I ended up ordering the pao de queso, Picanha that comes with 2 sides - we opted for the corn and the cous cous salad. Everything was 5/5 - the cheese balls were delicious - and the sweet sauce that comes with it paired with it tasted surprisingly well. The meat was flavorful and tender, and paired well with the waitress' side recommendations. Even though I could have eaten more of the delicious meat, it was just the right amount of food to not make me feel too full. I highly recommend coming to this restaurant if you're in the area!

Visited on a weeknight and this place was pretty empty. The restaurant itself is nice inside and…read morethe waitress quickly came over to bring menus and get us situated. We ordered an appetizer and it came out super quick. The ham croquettes had good flavor and the sauce it came with was also good. They were kind of small but I think one order brought 8 pieces. We ordered the 2lb parrilla (mixed grill) and this came with all the meats; chicken, pork, sausage and two types of steak with two sides. We opted for the rice and beans and added an extra side of fried yuca. We were a party of 4 and this was more than plenty because we still ended up taking leftovers. Overall I wasn't to impressed with the meat I feel that it was lacking seasoning. Even the green sauce on the side was kind of flavorless. I was really expecting more flavor from this since this is what they are known for. They did cook it perfectly how we asked. The yuca fries were ok but I've had better. Our bill came out to a little over $100 without tip so for the price range I was expecting a little more. We had one app - one 2lb grill - 3 sides and 4 can sodas. Our waitress was very sweet but I probably would not be going back.

I was in the area, I was hungry so I decided to try out Catrina's Tacos for the first time…read more I decided on the Quesabirria Tacos but I don't think they were available, so I chose the mushroom tacos. They were made to order so of course I had to wait a bit while my tacos cooked. My tacos were ready pretty quickly, the chef was kind and respectful. When I tasted my tacos they taste like your typical authentic tacos. I wish I had sour cream to go with my tacos but other than that, they were decent. If you want to support your local taco shop, give them a try!

Before we even got there, they were super attentive on the phone when I had a couple of questions about the platter, which we really appreciated. We took it to go since we have a 3-month-old baby, but even so, the service was great. The guy at the front smiled and acknowledged me from afar, while my husband picked up, which might sound small, but it really made us feel welcomed. The outside area was on point and honestly made us feel like we were back home in Miami. We moved to Tampa about a year ago, and it's been hard finding spots that give that real Latin/Dominican vibe, but The Latin Dug Out definitely does. Our go to Dominican place near our house closed down, so finding this place felt like a win. It's little far from us but so worth it! Great food, great service, great energy. We'll definitely be back .

But their specialty is really the Dominican street food. They have plenty items to try. We got pinchofongo. It is strange street food. The inside can be chicken or pork. We pick the marinated grilled pork. This dish the pork is wrapped the fresh plantains outwardly. Then it deep fried. This dish is good with finger eating. It was delicious. Other than pinchofongo, they have the Yaroa, Mangu, and salchipapa. All this are rare ethnic food. If you do go, the area have a lot food trucks to try.

Going to try to be as objective as possible. Arrived 30mins+ before closing, empty tables & waited…read more20mins+ to be seated. Waited 35+ min for a waitress greet us [Drink orders, any apps?, any menu questiins?]. We asked for waters, typically free at any other resteraunt. No, only $1 bottled water. I had a palomilla, aka bistec a la parilla, sliced so thin it would compete with a slice of prosciutto..... yet with the tenderness of a high performance Goodyear tire. Un Rabo tibia that was, presumably encendido at some point but served 30mins later. The pork included in the Picada Isla Bella had that unmistakable reheated pork taste but at least the croquettas were good. Rice & Beans and plantains were fine. With the exception of the pork, the overall flavor of each dish was passable. The 1st plate wasn't served until approx 90 minutes after order taken, barely warm. Each dish arrived 15-20 mins after the last, all barely warm to room temp. Only the beans arrived hot, because they forgot to bring it with the entrees & must've scooped it right out the pot. Time & efficiency seem to be a major issue here. Also, consider cash, $9 for paying with a credit/debit card . Not much ambiance to speak about, positive or negative, but there's a TV playing music videos! Same night, as we were being seated I noticed a YouTuber or someone recording for social media platform, who seemed effusive of his experience. I found few redeeming qualities dining here, I guess some people just do it for the exposure.

My son and his wife just had a healthy baby boy. So I…read moredecided to take them rotisserie chicken and thought about Lima. I ordered 1 and 1/12 chickens and got 4 sides. Rice and beans and yucca fries. My son is a picky eater and is not a big ethnic food person. He LOVED it! He took a plate to his wife and she said it was awesome. The chicken was tender and well seasoned. The beans and rice had a very flavorful taste and the yucca fries were yummy. I had called in the order about 3 pm for me to pick up at 6 and it wasn't ready but they had it ready in 5 minutes. So far everything we have tried had been awesome! Sorry, no pictures as we were very hungry and just started digging in....lol.

My friend said it reminded him of how his family would prepare these dishes. He also had the anticuchos, which were delicious, but could have had some more flavor/spices. For drinks, the maracuyá and mango juices were super refreshing, and the homemade chicha morada was very authentic, not too sweet and really well done. Our server was also very attentive and nice, checking on us and getting our food out quickly. The restaurant is small, but it had a good amount of patrons when we went on a Sunday afternoon for some lunch. It is very clean and modern inside, the decor was nice. If you're looking for some legit Peruvian food in Tampa, this spot is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back for sure.

We ordered 3 different iterations of Lomo Saltado, they all came out with this river of vinegar flavor. Left feeling like I wasted my money and time. The positive in the experience was that the waitress was nice, she apologized for the bad food even though it wasn't her fault, but I STILL PAID for the bad food, and it's not cheap. The restaurant itself is a cozy small establishment. If they hired a cook that can actually cook the place would be decent. I feel bad leaving this review, but I wish someone would have left the truth to save me today. Food is an Apple Cider Vinegar and Soy sauce saturation, the beef they used tasted old and flavorless without this river of vinegar. I will NEVER return to this restaurant, the cook can't cook!!
