Their menu changes seasonally, and it currently lists food such as fries, Cuban sandwich, chicken-tortilla soup, tagliatelle, flat-iron steak, and Hokkaido scallops. I met a friend here for one dinner. The setting was more on the casual side rather than fine dining. (I wore jeans and a blouse.) I have eaten authentic foods in South America, Central America, and the Caribbean, and I thought that the menu was slightly influenced by these regions. The waitress and waiter spoke nicely with us. Our dinner that included a BYO wine (with a $5 charge per person), appetizer, entree, and dessert lasted 1 hour and 45 minutes. The foods had strong flavors, and we both enjoyed everything that we ate. For appetizers, my friend and I shared the Crispy Brussels Sprouts, which also contained carrots, pecans, and a dressing, and the Hot Low Country Crab Dip, which contained a good amount of crab meat and was served with crunchy toast. For entrees, I ate the Cutler-cove Salmon, which was accompanied with asparagus, potatoes, and a spicy jerk sauce and habanero purée, and my friend ate the Arugula Salad, which contained fresh arugula, baby carrots, goat cheese, olives, and hot honey. For dessert, I ate the Kentucky Bourbon Cheesecake, which was topped with pecans, caramel, and whipped cream, and my friend ate the Maple Panna Cotta with raspberries.

The bread was so good a little bit sweet which I liked. I asked them to warm it up for me and she did but I will say it wasn't all the way warmed through so if you have time, just take it to your house to warm it, but I t was not cold by any means. I wanted to get more, but I had just left the gym and didn't want to do too much. The decor is so bright and colorful with ample seating, even though the place was not that big They use scrabble pieces as descriptions for their items they even do a giveaway using Scrabble if you can guess what the item of the day is. There are also different items per purchase from other countries from food to knickknacks. I would definitely suggest checking it out.

This little slice of heaven is located in an old bank giving it a fortress feel outside. Inside you find a cute space decorated by the very proud Puerto Rican owners. I ordered at the counter from an I-pad like device than sat with eager anticipation. The smells coming from the kitchen made my mouth water something fierce. When my food arrived I was like a Mad Dog as I tore into my meals ( yes plural, don't judge ) I began by dumping my garlic sauce all over my Mofongo. Next I poured my shrimp over my rice and peas and now I was ready to eat. The garlic completely complimented the plantain mash and when I paired that with some of my shrimp from my other dinner it was a match made in heaven. The shrimp were not only cooked perfectly but they were huge and I generously got about 10 to my order. The rice and peas were perfectly flavored on their own but were made better with the addition of the shrimp & peppers along with their magical Criolla sauce . I also tried both the guava pastries as well as the Quesitos and both were fire . Overall the prices are really good for the quantity and quality of their food, service was quick and my only wish is they were closer to my house, but they are definitely worth the 35 mile trip

The menu listed bowls, salads, empanadas, burritos, arepas, signature dishes (e.g., beef, chicken, and seafoods), sides (e.g., yuca fries and black beans), desserts, alcoholic beverages, and juices. Most menu items were gluten-free. Many menu items contained meats, but a good number were vegetarian. I purchased empanadas in the chicken and vegetarian flavors. A server promptly brought them out to me. The fried dough was crispy. The chicken empanada was also filled with potatoes, tomatoes, and onions. The vegetarian empanada was filled with spinach, black beans, and white rice. They tasted pretty good. Each one cost about $3.

It is so so good! I've heard great things about the chicken quesadilla so I ordered one for my daughter and I to share. This thing is MASSIVE! If you don't LOVE cheese then order a different dish. The quesadilla is absolutely stuffed full of cheese. The rice and beans also had great flavor but I couldn't get over the chicken! The fried plantains were also delicious! The spicy green sauce is SPICY- heavy with cilantro and so dang good! I've heard you can ask for it to be mixed with the sour cream which might tone down the spice but I liked it as it is. I'm not one for super sweet drinks but I really enjoyed the flaxseed pineapple tea drink. It wasn't overly sweet (while it does still contain quite a bit of sugar if you're reading labels).
