Green Banana Slices with Sauce
Tuhin C.

This was my first time having Honduran food and I was so impressed! My friend I split the 4 taco set, a chicken baleda, and the green banana with sauce dish and my meal divided with my friend ended up costing me close to only $9! The baleda and the chicken tacos had a ton of flavor. The green bananas were decent, but not entirely mind blowing so I might try something else in the future. They were pretty generous with their portion sizes and it's pretty close to the UMC and VA hospitals so if you're looking for cheap and tasty food nearby - highly recommend.

Very casual restaurant with ample parking in rear of building. Food- I only came here to try the horchata. It lacked the almond flavor that a true one should have. Service- Very poor; I had to hunt down the waitress to order my beverage.

After a long morning at New Orleans court, I was seriously hungry and felt like eating Honduran food which I'd never had before. Well, Los Catrachos was quite close and there I went. It was quite packed with Hondurans (and even a couple of Brazilians) ordering some of this country's delights. As in Mexican and other Central American cuisine, beans and tortillas play a big role, but the difference is that they give plantains a large role, plus it's not spicy. The portions were seriously huge and I think I ordered too much but I seriously enjoyed every bite. The orders came out in about 40 minutes but it was totally worth it. Also, if I'm not mistaken I spent less than $20 ordering tajadas, maduros, baleada de carne con todo, and baleada de pollo con todo. Friendly staff too. Please check out the pictures and don't hesitate to go. Update: Went on October 24 for the third time at 4 pm. There was barely anyone there, but still service was quick and attentive. Got the delicious tajadas again, as well as baleada de salchicha and baleada de chancho frito. Always delicious and fresh. Along with soda came out to $18 without tip. So totally worth it.

Fried shrimp plate

My brother had asked if I'd been to this restaurant a couple of months ago since it's near my work because he had heard it was really good. So last week I finally went. There were no English menus that I saw but between my HS Spanish and google translate, I managed to order something super tasty. I think you're supposed to order at the counter but we had sat down to figure out the menu and someone actually came to us. I ordered the fried shrimp plate (big surprise) and I had my choice of corn or flour tortillas. My dish had fried shrimp, salad, pico, pinto beans, rice and corn tortillas. It was delicious and too much food for me. My friend got the Honduran tacos and said they were tasty and he even took some food back with him. We both had agua fresca. I had blackberry and he had passionfruit and both were amazing and not overly sweet. I will definitely back to try more items.

Desayuno tipico
Gerardo V.

Great Honduran food at reasonable prices. Strongly recommend their delicious baleada con todo, the pollo catracho with tajadas, their desayuno tipico. I've also enjoyed several of their beverages including their horchata and jugo de maracuya.

Over charging on state tax at 9.75%

lordered a chicken baleada. They only had two very small pieces of chicken on my baleada. First they messed the order up and gave me beef. Then a very small amount of chicken and refused to refund me. Never will I come here again. Horrible customer service. Store needs to close permanently! I will definitely seek further action towards this restaurant. Also another thing was noticed, this place is overcharging sales tax. Sales tax for restaurants is 9.45% not 9.75% this place owes a lot of customers money for over charging tax.

Baleada
Alexander W.

5 stars because the baleada was good, and because the price was under $4 for the combination meat baleada that I ordered. You could honestly eat 1 and be pretty close to full. Or you could order 2 and be stuffed Essentially a large quesadilla stuffed with beans, cheese, sour cream and any ingredients that you choose. Flavorful, filling. Not the best food I've ever had but it's up there in bang for your buck. Also ordered the carnita celbena. Ended up taking half of the dish home because I was so full from the baleada. The only downside to this dining experience was that the carnita was cooked to way well-done, which is not my preference. I'll be back though to try other meats as the deal is just too good to pass up.

Is this just Honduran food or do they also do authentic Mexican dishes?

They have Mexican,. I'm here for Huevos Rancheros.

Honduran food in New Orleans? Definitely!…read more After Match Day, we went to celebrate at Tia Maria's Kitchen. Love, love, love this cozy mama and papa restaurant. It was busy at lunchtime, but it gave us time to reflect on the hard work that led to two of my daughters matching in great residency programs. Two years ago, we also celebrated another amazing match day with a friend who flew in from San Francisco to help our family celebrate. I had the San Pedro Maduro. A deep fried plantain filled with veggies, black beans, avocados, crema and queso. I had mine with chicken. One of my daughters did hers with more veggies. Absolutely delicious! My family ordered a wide variety of papusas and tacos. Definitely add an agua Fresca. Loved the horchata, but the favorite was the moracuya. Blackberry and passion fruit. So refreshing and delicious. Muchas gracias for welcoming our family and friends into your cocina familiar. We loved enjoying your family's kitchen on a special day celebrating another chapter of our family's journey. #2800

I've been wanting to hold back on this review because I swear every time I go, there's so many people ordering takeout or dining it! It very much is getting the attention it deserves. I will say, pricier than your other honduran joints but this one is worth it. You can taste the love and fresh ingredients they pour into this place. If you can, go with a group of people so you can try a bunch of dishes. You seriously cant go wrong with anything on the menu but my favs are: Mega Baleada with carne asada and their pupusas! I've had the pastelitos, enchildas hondurenas, combo miramar, combo lempira. Note: Anything that mentions Hondurenas (tacos and enchiladas) they're different than your typical Mexican style!**

Fresh seafood from the Gulf of MEXICO and a wicked drink menu. They offer several ceviches. Tapas include guacamole, empanadas, crawfish queso, fish dip and veggie salads like crispy cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. We had the crispy cauliflower served with tempura, cashew habanero crema, garbanzo hash, and chimichurri. Loads of flavor and just the right bite size for tapas/apps. Plates include churrasco, fish and grits, paella (can be served veggie or without shellfish if you're allergic), lamb, Yucatan style pork, shrimp or steak mofongo, and chicken poblano. I had the churrasco, served with papas bravas. Steak cooked perfectly and seasoned perfectly. My husband had the steak mofongo and the beef tips, like the churrasco, were seasoned perfectly. The plantain mash was sweet and somehow savory at the same time. We loved both dishes. They make mean margaritas and caipirinhas hre, and also offer drinks like the paloma, the Bolivian sour, sangria, and specialty drinks. Service was amazing. She was so upbeat and helpful. This restaurant was a little slow when we went. It deserves a lot more love. It's so close to the touristy part of the French Quarter. Leave the gimmicky spots and come here, you won't regret it.

Definitely worth trying. Cute restaurant. Nice ambiance and vice. Clean…read more The crawfish Queso is mild, not spicy at all. Good flavor. The shrimp ceviche is delicious. The sauce is spicy.

The meat is also very tender. Service was good. Waitress was nice and welcoming.

The cashier greeted me immediately and was helpful with any questions I had regarding the menu. I ordered a six-pack of empanadas for $27 (otherwise it's usually $4.95 each), and they definitely do not skimp on the ingredients. Every empanada was stuffed to the brim, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. I tried two Argentine Beef, Ham & Queso, Asian Dumpling, Gumbo, and Peruvian Chicken. And honestly every single one was delicious in its own way. The drink I got the Honey Bun Latte, they use torani syrups so I'm familiar with the flavors. It was sweet, cozy, and paired perfectly with the meal. Imo, way better than the typical honey bun lattes that I pride in the past. Overall, this is a great spot for a quick bite that still feels high-quality and satisfying. I'll definitely be back!
