    Protein bowl with chicken
    Harold D.

    Thursday evening I ordered for pick up. When I get to the store or it's only two other people placing an order and one sitting down on the table. The place looks clean, cashier friendly. I ordered and I just waited for it to be completed, took about 6 to 7 minutes. I ordered a bowl with chicken, rice, beans, cucumber, plantains, and corn. The sauce I had sauce the food taste very well. I was impressed. It was a good amount. I'll definitely come back again.

    For something quick to eat this is the place. It has a bit more flavor. They are very nice and patient at the front.

    I came to Pinchos to pick up lunch for one of our offices. I have never been there before and the staff had requested it. The restaurant is super cute and has a fun aesthetic and vibe. The food was very yummy, too! They have a nice variety of menu items - definitely something for everyone. They also have a different daily special each day of the weekday! The staff were all very friendly and helpful, as well. They went out of their way to help accommodate our order and tax-exempt status. Definitely a great place to come eat a delicious meal.

    I came here with my coworkers for a quick lunch. We all have the app so we kind of know what we are getting before we get there. I decided to try something other than the burger amd was really happy I did. We get pretty fast service and they bring the food to you which is always nice. The restaurant is very spacious and I never feel like we are on top of any other guest. My food is always hot and normally the burger is always good but the bowl really hit the spot. And I really love fries and they have seasoning with the pincho sauce

    Love their burgers and Cajun fries! Sooooo good. We came for a special they had $10 burger, fries, and a drink. Burger was fresh and tasty and the Cajun fries are so delicious I would come back just for this alone. My boyfriend got the protein bowl and he said it was really good as well! The cashier was friendly and welcoming and overall good customer service. The restaurant is clean and spacious. It did feel a little warm inside but it could have been because of the kitchen. The restaurant has nice lighting hanging from the ceiling and a nice mural painting. I love pincho factory. I have been to the Pembroke Pines, Hialeah, and sunrise location and all three have been great!

    Tried this spot last night on my way home from work. Not sure if I got the wrong thing but it was just an ok meal. I ordered the tostone burger and added a fried egg to it. The burger was good and the fried egg was cooked perfectly. My issue was there was not much flavor. I dipped the burger in some of the sauce options but it still felt like it was missing something. Where I went wrong was I believe with the side. I ordered the combo so it came with a side and a drink. I got the Cajun fries. They were so salty that I could not finish them. I was also a little disappointed in the drink options. I'm a big fan of iced tea and all they had at the soda bar was, well, sodas. If I try it again I will be sure to try the fried cheese since this looked like a delicious side option when I saw some come from the kitchen. Overall, it was an ok meal. I would probably choose this over other fast food burger options since it is unique.

    Pincho Burger
    Isabel S.

    Whenever I'm craving a juicy, flavorful burger or a colorful, huge portion bowl, Pincho is my go-to! Every location I have gone to has provided continuous flavorful food with great customer service and a spotless seating areas to dine in. If you follow Pincho on social media, you would know when they have new menu items, free add ons, featured burgers, etc. The Pincho Burger is what you would consider their "well-known" burger and if you want to keep it simple. This burger contains a beef patty topped with American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, potato sticks and the secret Pinch sauce. Getting this burger but with grilled chicken, also called the Classic Chicken, is one of my favorites if I don't want anything crazy. The Vaca Bowl contains 16-hour braised beef, fresh tomato salsa, black beans and Madura bits which is served over rice and a drizzle of cilantro sauce. The flavors in this bowl are super delicious as not one ingredient over powers with flavor. My second options for a bowl would be the Latin or Tex Mex but they all taste so good to choose just one as my favorite. Their sides are a must try from their soft sweet potato tots with Apple butter dipping sauce to crunchy, well season tostones. There's times when I become so indecisive that I order multiple sides just to try a little of everything. If you haven't tried Pincho yet, I recommend you do as you won't be disappointed.

    Pincho burger with mold on the bottom bun.
    Chris P.

    My wife came here this evening to buy some vaca frita bowls and a pincho burger. When I cut the burger in half and took one bite, my wife looked at the half of the burger in my hand and noticed something strange on the bottom bun. With further inspection of the bun we were able to determine it was a LARGE spot of mold on the bread.... We were immediately repulsed and threw it out. My wife called to complain about the mold on the burger. While on the phone, We could tell both employee and manager while apologetic didn't even care what so ever. we used to enjoy pincho. I think it's safe to say we won't be buying food from them again after this....

    We used to frequent Pinchos quite a bit, but fell back a little because they failed to give items when we ordered on more than one occasion. They got better with it. Today when I was at work, I got tons of notifications from the Pinchos app offering 15% off, buy one get one free Pincho plates or burgers, or $10 off. I figured what the heck, we do take out on Wednesday so I will order tonight from Pinchos. I have learned to check my bag before leaving because I don't live close by and again it happened. They forgot to give me the beans for one of my pincho plates. And it's very strange that as soon as I walked up to the girl at the front to tell her, she was handing me a bag with beans in it. Now, this leads me to believe she forgot to put the beans in the bag and then she saw me checking my bag. This is the kind of stuff that bothers me and makes me think twice before visiting again. I have never reviewed on Yelp before, only through the links that I get in the text after putting through an order. Today, I figure it's time to put it on Yelp. Please get it together, Pincho! I'm not asking for anything free. I'm just asking for what I ordered. The food is great, prices are decent, and they give you a lot of perks when you sign up for rewards on their app, but it's just a lot of hassle when they forget your items. Especially when you don't live close to the store.

    Krabby patty collab
    Stephany S.

    Came in to try the Krabby Patty Kollab and it was awesome. The meal comes in the cutest spongebob themed box. (Think OG mcdonalds happy meals). The meal itself consists of a Krabby patty (of course) and kelp fries. (You can also opt to get regular fries). The meal does not come with a drink fyi. We ate in so we could have a fresh burger. The dining area is really nice and has a beautiful mural painted on the wall. The burgers didn't take too long to be ready. Once they walked out with our Spongebob boxes, the excitement was real!!! Lets start off with the krabby patty. It was so yummy! The burger is covered by a delicious sesame bun. The patty itself has great flavor. And the "secret formula" sauce is delicious. It has a tangy taste and gives a great kick to the burger. The fries were equally as delicious. Fried to perfection and seasoned with a shredded seaweed which was delicious. Not overpowering at all! Don't be afraid to try it!! The meal is available through October 27th!

    This was my first time in 15 years coming back to try Latin American Grill in Pembroke Pines…read more When my family used to live in Pembroke Pines, I remember stopping by to grab colada and sandwiches for quick lunch every weekend with my friends before going out. It was one of more affordable lunches for us back then. Not much has changed in all the years. The food quality is still decent, the prices are still affordable, and the customer service is still friendly. It was a nice experience to stop by for a simple breakfast and colada. It helped me reminisce about my life from years ago, how much has changed for the better now, but still missing how some things were back then. Maybe it wasn't a simple dining experience for me today, maybe motivation for me to check in on some people from way back then to see if they are still doing well. Thanks Latin American Grill for still being at the same location and reminding me to reach out to people I haven't spoken to in years. They offer plenty of free parking in this plaza. I would recommend this place to others and maybe be back next time I am in Pembroke Pines area.

Fortunately, a coworker pointed me toward Latin American Grill in Miami Lakes, just a few minutes from our hotel. It turned out to be exactly the sendoff I was hoping for. We started with the Sopa de Pollo, a bowl that made it immediately clear this kitchen isn't interested in shortcuts. Large chunks of chicken, tender vegetables, and noodles floated in a broth with remarkable depth. It wasn't simply chicken soup, it was the kind of soup that makes you wonder why every other version tastes so timid. A squeeze of fresh lime added just enough brightness to wake up every spoonful without distracting from the richness of the broth. Then came the reason for the visit. The Medianoche. I've always preferred the sweeter cousin of the traditional Cuban sandwich, and Latin American Grill makes a terrific one. Thick slices of ham and juicy mojo pork were layered with Swiss cheese, mustard, and pickles before being pressed between soft, sweet bread until the outside turned beautifully crisp. Every ingredient had a purpose. The pork brought richness, the ham added salt, the mustard and pickles cut through the fat with welcome acidity, and the sweet bread tied everything together. It's one of those sandwiches that reminds you how satisfying simplicity can be when every component is done well. Sometimes the best restaurant recommendations don't come from guidebooks or social media. They come from someone who simply says, "You should eat here." In this case, they were absolutely right. A great Cuban sandwich doesn't need reinvention. It just needs great ingredients, careful execution, and a hot press. Latin American Grill delivers all three.

There was nice decorations on the wall and I couldn't find a single crumb anywhere! The staff was also friendly and told us where to go to grab the food we ordered. I decided to get the skirt steak and it was cooked to perfection. I will say the chimichurri sauce was a little underwhelming as it didn't have my flavor and only tasted like oil to me, so I didn't use it.

We moved to Georgia about a year and a half ago, which was a great move for us and we have truly loved our new home and hood, but the only thing we don't have in our new area is good Argentinian food. That's why when we got to town, we knew we were going to look specifically for a good churrasco. We discovered Alta Vaca Grill on Yelp near our airbnb and had it on our first night. Normally, hubby and I would split a steak but on this visit we each got our own and cleaned our plates. Alta Vaca definitely hit the spot! We each had a churrasco cooked medium with fries for me and rice for my husband. Every bite was music to my tastebuds! We loved it so much that when making dinner plans with friends a couple days later and the night before our flight back home, we knew we wanted to return to Alta Vaca one last time before leaving. I made a reservation for 8 and I'm glad I did because the space inside is somewhat limited and they were slammed. Despite the place being jam packed and us being a large party, our server was incredible as was their entire staff. Our food came quickly and tasted just as divine as the first visit. I ordered the churrasco again but this time with potato salad instead of fries. I asked if the potato salad was vinegary because I tend to be picky about those, but I was assured that if I didn't like it, I could switch it to something else after. This was great to know but not necessary as I ended up loving it along with the delicious steak. I savored every bite and lamented at the fact that I could not take the whole place home with me as I was not ready to let go. If we had Alta Vaca Grill near our new home, I would be there at least weekly without question. Amazing service with mouthwatering food and reasonable prices makes this an easy 5-star rating in my book. If we are ever in the area again, returning will be high on the priority list. If you are lucky enough to live nearby and haven't tried them yet, I suggest you run, not walk there, sooner rather than later because you will not be disappointed.

She was actually going with us to the cruise as well. When we got to her house, had a little chat then off we went to this place per her recommendation. We were starving yes but it did not disappoint. There's 7 of us so we ordered different dishes from the menu. Cuban sandwich. Tamales Con Lechon. Croquettas(Breaded ham paste). Thursday lunch specials- Skirt steak. Roast pork Lechon asado. We shared some from everyone's plate to get a taste of everything. I love their smashed crispy plantain too. Their garlic bread was ok for me not really a fan. Everything were delicious but I wished we ordered and tried their desserts though. We just had their Cuban coffee and that was it. So goodd!!

The service was kind of a little slow but it was worth it I think. We enjoyed the place while waiting and they have a full bar anyways. I love the interior decor and almost every part of the furniture is curated. The place is a little huge so it's really good for big groups too.

We instantly regretted our decision after ordering our food. Our server was not friendly and welcoming.

Tall guy in a server uniform poured water in our cups without any greeting and rushed away. I had to ask for straws and more napkins. I ordered the baby churrasco and our server asked how I would like my steak cooked. I answered medium well but when it arrived it was cooked to medium at best. I had also ordered boiled yuca with my meal, which is one of my favorite sides to get at Las Vegas Cuban cuisine restaurant. The yuca was hard and not cooked all the way. The onions on top were raw and hard textured like shredded cabbage. The server never came by our table to ask if everything was okay. She walked around in circles like she was lost and was first day on her job. I had to ask for a check. Only then she came by and asked if we were okay. I paid cash. The bill was $62 and left $18 tip. I don't think I will be coming back to this location ever again. The experience was upsetting. When customers go to restaurants, their expectation of decent food and decent customer service should be given and not sought after. I don't recommend you go to this specific Las Vegas Cuban cuisine in Pembroke Pines location unless you look Hispanic because they will discriminate and give you different kind of crappy customer service and whatever cooked food.

    Stopped in with a friend for a late lunch, and it was a really great time. We each ordered…read morehorchata to drink, which tasted great, and had some good food to boot. I think we both had the same thing, baleadas with eggs, and it was nice and toasty. On top of that, also ordered a pupusa that was quite tasty. Ambiance was really great as well, and staff was very friendly. Everything came pretty quickly, and it all tasted good.

    Me giving this place a 2-star review is honestly me being nice. The service was horrible…read more We walked in and the restaurant was nearly empty. We were told to sit anywhere, which was fine, but then we ordered 2 waters and a passion fruit margarita and waited almost 30 minutes just to get them. On top of that, the drink order was wrong. She served us what tasted like salty mango juice -- and I say "juice" because there was absolutely no alcohol in it. Then we ordered a simple meal: a few chicken tacos, pork tacos, and an order of chicharrón. Somehow that still took 30-45 minutes, and the order was missing items when it finally arrived. That's crazy for an order of 4 chicken tacos and 4 pork tacos. The tacos honestly weren't even that good either. The only thing that was actually good was the chicharrón. People always say "good food takes time," and sure, that's understandable when a restaurant is busy. But this place wasn't even halfway full. There were plenty of open tables inside and outside, so the wait made no sense -- especially considering the food wasn't worth it.

    Havana 1957 is your classic cuban spot for all your cuban food cravings. Located in Pembroke…read moreGardens this spot has all the delicious cuban dishes like vaca frita, masitas de puerco, cuban sandwiches and lechon asado. We stopped for lunch and tried the lunch menu items. We tried the pollo asado bowl which comes with rice, salad , big chunk of avocado and baked chicken no skin. The rice and beans were so good. Beans were a little watery but were perfect for my taste as this is the way i like them. Chicken had good flavor but was a bit dry. Waitress was fast but food took longer than expected and we had to rush back to work. Love the 1950's Havana nostalgia vibe with all the vintage cuban decor. Dimmed lights and nice bright bar area. Spacious with plenty of indoor and outdoor patio area.

    Havana 1957 was a nice experience overall. We had family visiting us from a different country and…read morewanted to provide a memorable experience for them while they were in Florida. In my opinion, trying Cuban food is a must, for anyone visiting Florida, since Spanish culture is such a huge part of South Florida scene. We found one or two other restaurants that offer better quality Cuban food than Havana 1957, but with vibe and music thrown in the mix, we decided to go with Havana 1957. We went on a Wednesday night, and though the place was mostly empty, it took a long time for us to get our food. We were a party of 9 so I understand how it could have been hectic for the chefs in the back preparing our food, but wait time of close to 1 hour felt a bit extreme. Our server was nice. The food was decent. The vibe was nice. The only bad experience I have to say, was that there was a lady from Visenta Studio walking around asking to take photos of us. Before we even got our appetizers, she came and asked if I wanted to buy the photos she took of us on a frame for $20 each. I asked her can I wait until after we eat to pay for the pictures? She said no, I am sorry right now please. I then asked if she can removed the photos from the frame because our family have to go back on Friday and they would prefer to bring just the photos and not the frames. I asked if I can pay her $10 just for the photo and no frame, and she said no it's still $20. I asked her what happens to the pictures I don't buy and she said they go in the garbage. I asked to speak to the manager to better understand how this made sense and she said the manager can't do anything because it's not his company. Honestly, this was such a frustrating experience and lost my appetite going back and forth with this lady named Samantha. I hold Havana 1957 partially accountable for going along with Visenta Studio and allowing this money hungry photographer to come and interrupt our dining experience. The whole experience would have been much better without this photographer engaging to ruin our experience. At the very least, Samantha (Visenta studio photographer) could have had humor and manners and offered to take free photo with our phone after we purchased two of her overpriced photos on hideous frames. I recommend this place to others for sure. I don't recommend you entertain the photographers from Visenta Studio. If they come by you said no thank you and save your money please. We are Florida locals who got suckered into paying tourist price for average pictures.
