(I also love the bathroom theme) We had coffee, margaritas, the Huevos Pericos (columbian eggs) Arepita, fries, and the slab bacon. The drinks were spot on, and coffe fresh. We all really enjoyed the Heuvos Pericos Arepitas! A large pillowly arepa topped with a tower of soft scrambled eggs made with tomato and scallion. The ingredients were fresh and it tasted homecooked. The slab bacon had good flavor, but was a bit too thick and chewy for our preferences. The fries were thin, salty, and crispy, what a fry should be. Additionally, our server was friendly and prompt.

Nothing special. 4) papperdelle pasta was by far the best. But not insane. The ambiance is the true winner- super cool vibe and beautiful for a first date! Service was good too but nothing special.

Total must, particularly the creamy green sauce, but also the others ruled.

While they have all the traditional breakfast fare, I was so happy to see it also had a Caribbean twist to it. I couldn't help myself--I had to order rice and beans with pernil (pork shoulder) and a side of sweet plantains. Of course, I wanted some actual breakfast items, so we got the French toast loaded with fruit. We also got both the tres and quatro golpes, which is a traditional Dominican breakfast. Lastly, we got a Caribbean omelet. My rice and pernil was solid. The rice could've used a tad bit more seasoning but when mixed with the side of beans and plantains plus a drizzle of hot sauce it was perfect. They had a variety of sauces--Tabasco (my fave), a Jamaican one that was super spicy, and a mild homemade one. The tres/quatro golpes was also a hearty choice with mangu (mashed plantain), sausage, fried cheese, and eggs. The pickled red onion balanced everything out. The fried cheese is similar to a halloumi but I think it's a bit more flavorful. All the flavors just melt together in your mouth perfectly. The French toast and omelet were good. I'd say the Caribbean items stole the show though. The place has a typical diner vibe and is on the small side. Food was served quickly and service was good. Discount if you pay in cash. I will be coming back to try their Cuban!!
