My wife and I stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. We were at a business next door and looking for…read morelunch. The restaurant has a dozen or so tables each covered in thick plastic to protect the underlying tablecloth I guess. It was unclear to us if someone was going to come by and take our order or we had to go to the counter to order. We chose the latter after sitting at a table for a bit. We were the only native English speakers in the place which may have been part of the issue. Their menu is clear and easy to read with pictures of most of the dishes also displayed in an overhead lighted menu board. We each ordered a beef and a chicken taco along with pupusas. Our food was delivered to us a short time later. The tacos looked and tasted very fresh. We loved them. The pupusas were freshly fried(?) and piping hot. Yummy. We saw several other orders come out with a bowl of sopa de res. It looked and smelled great chock full of veggies and a hunk of meat. Even though it was hot outside, I think that might have been the dish to get. Next time.

My husband and I are on the hunt to find a new place for tacos. La Promesa didn't disappoint. Now…read moreit's nothing fancy but there is a decent amount of seating and the food was great! Keep in mind that some of the staff there might not speak English, the gentleman at the counter was bilingual which was help since my Spanish is not great. They make everything to order so there might be a bit of a wait for your food but boy was it good! Shout out to the yelper who mentioned the hibiscus tea (aka Jamica in Spanish!) really good place you can order online as well. My husband and I can't wait to return. There are a few other thing to keep in mind while here. You order and pay at the counter, if you're dining in they will bring your food to the table and when you leave you can leave your stuff at the table. The staff will come and clear the table as there was a group of 5 that had left while we were there. There are plastic forks and knives in a container on the table as well as a roll of what is best described as paper towels that you can use as napkins. Again this place isn't fancy so I just want to make that clear. Also with the portion size of the tacos they actually put a decent amount of meat in them and the tortillas you could tell were fresh.

Do you want a meal that is so filling and satisfying that you feel like you could hibernate right…read moreafter? Just curl up like an exhausted grizzly and forget the world until your belly is no longer full? Then go to Brazza and get ready to bring on blissful exhaustion. I've been here three or four times now and have tried several menu items. Everything comes to the table quickly and perfectly delicious. The meats are tender and flavorful, and the crispy skin on the pork belly chicharrón sings when you scrape it with a fork. The sides are hearty and massive, with the fried plantains being especially delicious bars of golden delight (I recommend the tomato and onion salad as the perfect side for the chicharrón). There are lots of drink options, too: the papelón is the best limeade for a hot day, and the chicha-criolla vaso is like a milkshake delivered directly from heaven. The absolute star of my heart, though, is the blood sausage. The skin has a delicate snap, the filling is silky in consistency, and the flavor is robust and rich. Add the smallest drop of the hot sauce (ask for it specifically) to change and amplify the flavor into something even more interesting. If you have never tried blood sausage before, Brazza offers an exceptionally palatable way to try it through the homogenous filling, rich spices, and minimal tangy flavor. If you already enjoy blood sausage (I grew up eating boudin), then you should try what I consider the smoothest and most complexly flavored version I've ever eaten. Long review short, go to Brazza if you want amazing meats, refreshing drinks, and delicious food in general, all at an excellent price. And you get Carlos' warm welcome and big smile for free!

I do think that a mix of the steak and other dishes is a good balance but it would've been great to have more greens as an option. But then again, this isn't something that is unique to this restaurant alone or the type of cuisine. I would love to watch a great soccer game or other sports event here to root on a local team. It is the perfect combination of solid food, genuine vibes, and great service.

For a full experience, we sampled several dishes & our table became a Peruvian fiesta fit for Kings & Queens! We had: a delicious, sweet red wine; apps-Papa Relleña, Causa de Pollo, Anticucho, Leche de Tigre, entree- Lomo Saltado, dessert- Torta Manjar Blanco and coffee. Everything was sooo tasty and wow, the presentation of the food had me saying, "oooh" and "ahhh" every time the server brought something to the table. The Causo de Pollo was probably the most beautifully presented dish...for a moment, I thought someone mixed up our app order with dessert, but actually, no, apparently, their chef is an artist in that kitchen!! The Leche de Tigre was another eye-catching dish- huge serving and stacked up high on the platter & the ceviche was perfectly cooked, seasoned and crisp. Every dish and sauce was an experience all its own and so yummy. If someone had tried to tell me before today that I'd enjoy beef heart, I'd think they were nuts, but the Anticucho was so good!! I highly recommend making this your next stop for indulging your foodie palate with the tastiness of Peru right here at home. No jetlag or long lines with the TSA necessary!

The inside looks something like they bought an old 7-11 and only semi-converted it, but it's well worth poking your head in and grabbing a pupusa. The shelving in the middle of the store and the cold cases in the back have reasonably generic stuff, especially if you need good tortillas or cotija or something, and there's a bit of fresh produce off to the left by the kitchen. Stare at the menu for a minute, order at the little counter, and then wait a bit til they hand you your bag. I grabbed a cheap cuppa while I was there which is exactly the caffeinated comes-from-a-dispenser coffee it looked like, complete with powdered creamer, but it works. The tamales were also amazing- or so I hear, since i didn't get to eat any of them. Next time. The only issue I ran into at all, honestly, was getting someone to acknowledge I existed at the other register so I could pay for my tortillas and produce. It took... a while.

They had a open sign up and no one was inside but the workers (I came at 11ish am during lunch). The photos really helped me decide what to choose. They don't have great descriptions if you like knowing everything that is in the dish- but they do have a basic description in english under the pictures. I got a some tacos and a cheese bean wrap burrito with a coke! I really enjoyed the taco's (that were packaged to go). They tasted fresh and included a lime with fresh cilantro and some diced onions. The burrito cheese bean wrap was kind of soggy after travel so I didn't really enjoy it. The coke was super yummy - I don't know what it is about coke in a glass bottle that really pairs nicely with mexican and el Salvadorian food! The inside of the restaurant was very aesthetically appealing. It looked like they re-did the entire place with three different themed areas. Family dinning, main room dinning and a tiki bar on the other side. I think this place does a fair amount of night life as there were lots of pre-strung lights throughout and a disco ball plus speaker systems. If in the area, I would definitely try this place again!
