For starters, they have free 1-hour parking (with validation) right next door which is a huge perk! Second, they're cash only. Third, this is definitely a local spot and despite a slight language barrier, the staff were incredibly warm & friendly. We ordered the Grande Pan con Bistec w Queso which is their large steak sandwich. We decided to split it and ended up ordering another sandwich midway through because it was that good. The sandwich is simple - steak, fries, onions, and cheese. The bread was the perfect texture and thickness, the steak was plentiful, the fries were salty & crispy, and the onions were tangy & bright. They're also known for their smoothies so we got two. Mamey is a tropical fruit tree native to southern Mexico and Central America. The flavor is closest to a melon, sweet potato, and caramel. I enjoyed this one but it's definitely on the sweeter side. Guanabana is soursop which is more custardy, sweet like banana and tangy like pineapple. I absolutely loved this one! This meal was so simple yet so satisfying. I highly recommend checking them out!

We had a reservation and got our seats quickly. We went to see the World Cup final and unfortunately there was only one large screen on the lawn area in front and we weren't able to see it well from our table. A DJ was playing as well so we were unable to hear the game. The music how we was great and he played Latin music - both new and old. Great playlist. To start the drinks were all great although a bit on the sweet side. It was rather busy so drink took a minute and water was also not refilled as quickly as I would have liked. Food was amazing! Everyone loved their dishes. The oxtail was amazing and super tender and flavorful. The white rice with maduros eeew great and the side of black beans. The flan was such a beautiful presentation. There was vanilla ice cream and some cream on top. The cream was a bit sweet so I didn't love that part but the flan itself was great. The only downside was how full I felt after the dinner. Would definitely return to try some more dishes.
