Absolutely worth getting food here rather than Wendy's or Petro. Highly recommended

Returned and advised them of the mistake. They apologized and handed me an empanada. Got home to find the empanada was a vegetarian empanada!! This seems to be the normal at this Mi Apa that I do not find at any other location Either their chicken is cooked from a frozen state which makes it rubbery or some other issue. Either way there is always an issue at this place. Sad to say. The management alway apologizes but nothing seems to get corrected. Anyhow, glad we have other options.

There are two doors to this fine restaurant, but both have that home-cooked smell that smacks you…read morein the nose, when you open them! The smell is enough to make you want to eat and take a nap. I followed the easy-to-understand board. First pick which rice you want, which type of bean, and then which type of protein, sides, etc. If you can't get it, just go to the line, and a friendly server will explain it and help. I got the big container to-go, and I am glad I did; it's two good meals!! The curry chicken was cooked to PER FEC TION!!!!!!!!! So tender and juicy, and the curry flavor was on point, and the rice was from a dream! I mean this food is amazing!! You know so much love was put into it!! I am def coming back to get a different combo!! Also, the sweet tea is delicious and won't give you cavities before you hit the door!

She was unwelcoming and acted like we were inconveniencing her just by being there. The food was mediocre at best. The rice was bland and the pork was dry and hard. Nothing else we ate stood out but I would have considered giving this place another chance to try other items on the menu but after the way we were treated i have no interest in returning. ESPAÑOL Terrible, terrible servicio. La muchacha del frente tenía una actitud muy mala que arruinó por completo la experiencia. Ella no fue placentera y actuó como si la estuviéramos molestando solo por estar allí. La comida es mediocre en el mejor de los casos. El arroz sin sabor y el cerdo estaba seco y duro. Nada más que comimos destacó o nos hizo querer volver. Haría considerado darle a este lugar otra oportunidad para probar otros artículos del menú, pero después de la forma en que nos trataron, no tengo ningún interés en volver.

This is honestly very uncomfortable for me to say because I usually have a great experience with…read morethe food and service at Mi Apa. However, I came in on a Tuesday evening, and unfortunately, my experience with our server, Esteban, was very uncomfortable. When we first sat down, he did not come over to ask what we would like to drink. Instead, he stood there and stared at me very awkwardly for about a minute, which made me feel very uncomfortable. After he eventually brought our drinks and food, he did not come back to check on us for almost two hours. Then, right as he saw that we were getting ready to leave, he came over to take our payments. He did not say anything or clarify whether we were splitting the check. He went directly to my friend and had her pay, and we later realized that she had paid for both of us. At that point, it was already very late, so we did not complain or say anything. However, I truly felt uncomfortable throughout the entire experience. It was not just the lack of checking on us, but also the fact that he barely spoke to us, never communicated with us, and never made any effort to make us feel welcomed or comfortable during our visit. I want to emphasize that I have never been treated this way at Mi Apa before, which is why it is unfortunate that I feel the need to bring this to your attention. I have always had a positive experience here, so I hope this feedback can be helpful in some way. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for hearing me out. I hope this helps in any way.

Now in full disclosure, I did pu up to this small shopping plaza, prime time lunch and someone did pull out after a few minutes. Walking in, I liked the simple and comfortable ambiance.

He suggested the lunch plate and proceeded to give me a sample of the roast pork and vata frita and samples of the choice of rice. What amazing service. I went with the roast pork and it was amazing. I mean, seriously amazing. Do not sleep on this amazing gem. It definitely earned five stars.

For the ham and cheese tostada I could stop in every day. That bread is so heavenly. Crisp on the outside and soft a d fluffy inside. It soaks up the flavors from the ham and gives it the most delightful taste. Normally I like some kind of condiment on a sandwich but the way the ham flavors the bread leaves that tostada needing nothing at all. It is perfection. I paired it with a cafe bombon for a little treat. If you have t tried their cafe bombon you must. A shot of espresso over condensed milk is just what the coffee addict ordered. Service-10/10. It's counter service here but they don't just serve you and forget you. After bringing my coffee she noticed I didn't have napkins so went and got them for me. She brought my food later and brought me more napkins and checked to see if I needed anything else. They were so hospitable from the moment I entered until the moment I left. Atmosphere-10/10. I love the decor here. It's gives an open and welcoming vibe and is so bright and airy feeling. It invites you to sit down and enjoy your meal without rush and to sit and chat a bit while having a cafe and snacking a bit.

The prices are not bad for the amount of food you get and they have a lot of options. I got the sunshine burrito, which includes a variety of mixed vegetables in place of a meat. The burrito was huge and loaded with fillings, though the fillings were a bit unevenly distributed so some bites were dry and others were loaded with sauce. It was tasty though, I just wish it was a bit better mixed. The service was alright, the guy working was super nice but the food took a long time to come out. However it was definitely super fresh and hot when it came out, so can't complain too much!
