Knowing the power that online reviews can have and taking some experiences with a grain of salt…read morehere and there because sometimes you hit that one off day where maybe a place that's normally epic just doesn't quite have their stuff together, I find that I end up giving 5 stars in a range that goes from "really good" to "Michelin needs to stop in here (or already has)." This is definitely on the latter end of the spectrum. I popped in here tonight for a late dinner (830ish on a Saturday) to find the place relatively busy but with plenty of open seats. The decor was a nice mix of dark and light with the bright green accents plus a big screen TV cycling tropical getaways (I assume from places in Latin America). I was seated and tended to quickly by a hostess and server, respectively. I got my order in for a coconut mojito and a chicharron arepa right away. My mojito came shortly thereafter with my arepa not long after that. The mojito, as you can see, was garnished with a generous amount of shredded coconut on top and was heavier and creamier than a normal mojito, lighter on the mint flavor and pushing closer to a piña colada than a mojito. All in all though, still quite a refreshing drink after a hot and humid day. The arepa though was really the star of the show. The flavors and textures and everything about it were just mind-blowing. The handmade cheese, the incredibly seasoned and cooked pork, and the crispy arepa were all just *BOOM*. The avocado had a little bit of surface darkness on the one end that could have been polished up a little bit but not the end of the world. One I finished with these, I waited patiently for a while for my server to come back but alas I had to pop up to the bar to get my caipirinha. This version was slightly sweeter than some versions I've had and I don't mind sweet, but just be aware for those who may be considering it. Eventually, my server came back and apologized for being gone so long as she was conversing with her boss. Like I said... grain of salt. Aside from a minor inconvenience of having to walk 10 feet to the bar myself, this place absolutely blew me away and I will absolutely come back if I ever find myself in town again. Bonus points for having gluten and allergen callouts on their normal menu as well!

I was introduced to Clinton Latin Fusion a year or two ago thanks to Yelp, and their food is always…read moretasty. This visit had a rough start, but thankfully it turned around. I had made a reservation through OpenTable and arrived for the dinner. I ended up standing at the front for about seven minutes without being greeted or acknowledged. I honestly almost walked out and was kind of unbelievable as some other servers made eye contact but that was it and no one at the host/hostess stand. Thankfully, Isabella noticed me, asked if I had been helped, and promptly seated me after I explained what happened. From that point on, the experience completely turned around as I waited for a server to come work the table Isabella said she could pick it up. She really was the nicest person even though I had zero interactions with any other staff or managers, etc. I ordered the Cheese Tequeños, six for $12.50, and the Venezuelan Pastelitos, three for $12.50. The pastelitos came with three different fillings, ground beef, shredded chicken, and cheese. The shredded chicken was definitely my favorite. Isabella recommended the red beans instead of the black beans that I was looking at, so I took her guidance and added a side of red beans for $5. Great recommendation! They had so much flavor and were really good. Despite the frustrating start, Isabella saved the experience with her friendly and attentive service. The food continues to be good, and I'll definitely be back just hope the improve the welcome and front of house experience .

The tamales were tasty-- they have 3 diferent types and I got one of each. They were all a bit spicy so that's something to beware of because it wasn't expected. The queso was warm and creamy, it was a queso blanco, but there wasn't a large portion. I liked the tacos, but the birria tacos were served open face and without a side of consomme, definitely a little disappointing. The birria ramen was super rich, delicious, and cheesy, but very oily. The noodles themselves were cooked so much that they were quite mushy. I also wished that it came with some cilantro and onions or other veggies in it. I might order from here again, but it probably won't be my go-to if I'm craving birria.

We took a seat in the small dining room and within minutes complex aromas from our meal prep surrounded us. My belly started to rumble but within a short time our empanadas arrived. We decided on carne asada and pollo empanadas sharing both. Pollo was stuffed with peppers and onions. Very flavorful. The Carne be asada was only cubed beef. The flavor was fantastic but there were no vegetables. I purchased the Pico ( not the menu name) diced tomato onion oralegano red wine vinegar and oil. I ate the salsa with each empanada and thought it was fantastic and totally elevated the flavor of the empanada. I had read other reviews recommending the zuchinni. It did not disappoint! We love churos and had to order them here. These were unexpected. Maybe I'm used to mecican churos; fried dough, to covered in cinamon and sugar. As you can see in the photo- no cinamon or sugar sprinles (maybe the tiniest amount) House made dulche de leche is served on the side. Perfect for dipping the churo! I really enjoyed this churro. I think my husband was anticipating a more "mexican churro" experience. But he ate the entire stick! LOL. I'm excited to return - there are other empanadas flavors to try and that zuchinni will definately be ordred again!

I essentially got a vegetarian burrito. I'll say the fillings were fresh and it was great tasting a nice fresh guacamole. There was little to no meat which defeats the purpose of a carne asada burrito which should be the stand out. I'd say it's like eating a worse Taco Bell burrito.
