New location !!! Love that an idea was brought to life. The old location was small and limited and…read morefelt like you were in a small deli but now it's more spacious has a domino table inside and a game corner. The owners did a great job creating a more Latin feel like mom and pop restaurants in Miami. The food is still great they had a few different plates with more dinner style but the portions were great. Hope they can get fully back up but glad I can get tostada, Cuban coffee and food just like being at home. If you're near Reidsville, NC stop by. The town decorates for holidays too so there's selfie spots and places to walk off the yummy food.

I can't believe I'm lucky enough to have a Cuban restaurant this close to where I live. And even…read moreluckier the food is as good as some of the places in Miami. The Cubano, Colada and Cafe con Leche are legit and so good. The real surprise was the Guava Mango Cheesecake. This thing was on another level. My wife hates cheesecakes and ate half of it.

I thought it would have been flavorful but no taste very plain. Not for me . The service was great If it was seasoned properly this beef would have melted in your mouth. I was so hungry when I got home I was so disappointed . You can't season it enough after it's already cooked it's just not satisfying ugh. Let's hope the cook was just not having a good day . I had a peanut butter and jelly instead smh. I'm going to go back and try again

Very good food, especially the tacos, those are my go to.. eat here very often with the family!read more

I haven't eaten here in years, but the last time I did, and every other time that I have, it has…read morebeen absolutely positively scrumptious! From the delightful and freshly prepared Pastelitos to the pupusas, this place has it going on! The flavors are so fuera de serie! The service is so friendly and fast as well. The prices are also very good. It's a cute little plain-ish spot without a lot of decorations, but there's always nice music playing in the background. I also love the fact that the place is owned by a Pastor and his family! They are always so kind and helpful. They have authentic Salvadoran food, which is very difficult to find here.

This small place is known for the Pupusas they serve, and the fact that they only accept cash! The…read morerestaurant is located in a very shabby, aged strip center well off of N. Point, providing no street visibility, and a rough parking lot! The inside mirrors the outside, worn but clean and with a decent amount of seating - booths and tables, functional if not comfortable! Bibical verses adorn the wall, obviously no fear here of standing up for what you believe in an increasingly secular society - courage should always be acknowledged, IMHO! I ordered the aforementioned Pupusas - 4 Cheese and Pork for $11.50 with Crudito included! These were good, not great, Pupusa - under-seasoned for my tastes (added a Rick Bayless (you must know who he is) measure of salt) and it was were I needed it to be - but still weak! Unfortunately the Crudito was very weak, barely fermented - a great side when done right, not the case here! This was not bad food, but there is better available, even as close as Los Primos, only several miles away! The combination of under-seasoning, lack of pork, and uneven grilling makes this more than a bit off the charts for best of show!

Wanted to update with some more amazing dishes we tried, and service was as great as ever. Gosh I…read morelove this place. Updated recs: - Masitas de puerco (5/5): love the rice and beans, so flavorful. The pork belly is tasty and not oily at all, which is great. - Chaufa w/ shrimp (5/5): my family loved this! Generous meat portion, really enjoyed this Latin twist on fried rice. - Lomo saltado (4.5/5): we really enjoyed this as well / better than lomo saltado I've had elsewhere. The beef was so flavorful and delicious, as well as the fried potatoes. The rice complemented everything nicely. - Cuban fried rice (3/5): this one missed the mark for me a bit! It was a bit too oily / flavor didn't hit the spot. I definitely preferred the chaufa a lot more (though they're a bit similar). Our server was so bright and friendly. The atmosphere is bright, colorful, and lively. I'll definitely be coming back!

It was the end of the festival and we were lucky enough to snag one of the last available pulled pork arepas, fried yuca and sweet plantains. The girl taking our order, Maya, was so friendly and personable. Our food was ready quickly and came out piping hot and fresh. The fried yuca was crispy with a drizzle of delicious green sauce. The sweet plantains were fried to the point where the exterior of the plantain was just caramelized enough, but the star of the show was the pulled pork arepa. Imagine a pulled pork sandwich with crispy arepas as your bun topped with jalapeño coleslaw and pickled onions. The flavors of the toppings combined with the juicy pulled pork is top tier. Everyone was friendly and made you feel right at home. Will 100 percent be following them on Instagram @lamonona2024 to see where they post up next!

The food was fantastic, but unfortunately, the service was far from pleasant…read more My husband and I visited this restaurant for the first time, and when we entered, nobody greeted us. We waited for a while, but no one came over or explained where we should sit. Eventually, I went to the register and told the waitress that it was our first time there and asked if we could sit anywhere or if there was a specific process we needed to follow. She acted as though she did not speak English, which made the interaction uncomfortable. However, when I went to pay our bill later, she spoke English very clearly. Throughout our entire visit, she never introduced herself, checked on us, or offered us drink refills. What was especially disappointing was feeling as though we were being treated differently because of our appearance. I am from Brazil, and I know that if someone visits a Brazilian restaurant or business, we would make an effort to welcome and assist them regardless of their background or the language they speak. I can speak some Spanish and understand it when spoken, but I should not be expected to speak Spanish simply because I may look Hispanic. The one positive interaction we had was with the gentleman who brought our food. He was very kind, friendly, and welcoming. Overall, we felt invisible for most of our visit. The food was excellent, and we would recommend it based on the food alone, but the customer service definitely needs to be addressed. Every customer deserves to feel welcomed, respected, and treated equally, regardless of their appearance or language.

They had a special two pieces of Hen, a bowl of soup came with side salad the dressing was amazing and rice. The hen was cooked perfectly with some sauce on the hen. I also order some tostones with gucomole top with crispy chicharronnes! Delicious! They also have a case of bakery and everything I order was amazing. Chicken empanadas, the cheese bread and some random bakery items, so many to pick from to try. I high recommend this place for some homemade Columbian food and bakery goods! Definitely worth the drive about an hour and 10 mins from kernersville. Please check them out, service was fast and ladies were very friendly. They made me some fresh pineapple juice. They had some unique art work heading to the RR.

I really enjoyed this meal! You should check this place out! They also have a bakery with loads of delicious looking treats but I was too full from my delicious lunch to try them but next time!!

This is a food truck so they are in different locations all the time. We were lucky to catch them at the ALV Vintage Market. The staff is friendly and gives you a beeper to notify you when your order is ready. This shows that they make them fresh and you can taste that it is. They are always set up at cool events with a relaxed feel. My only complaint is that the plantains were a bit undercooked, other than that everything was great!
