Rosita's Treats is well known for its Colombian cuisine. We began the meal with a couple juices,…read morethe guava and lulo, and the empanada & yucca fritter (carimañola) variety pack. This included chicken and mushroom, chorizo and black bean, shrimp and crab, and bulgogi empanadas, along with ground beef, and cheese carimañolas. The chicken and mushroom and chorizo and black bean were my favorites of the 4 empanadas. The shrimp and crab was flavorful, but had a prevalent fish taste. The bulgogi was enjoyable, as well, but had a bit of kick. As for the carimañolas, I liked the ground beef a bit more than the cheese. The dish came with a sour sauce and, the cilantro based, aji sauce. Both were great, to the point where I didn't have a preference. For our entrees, we got the deep fried red snapper and the meat platter. The snapper was delicious, and the bones did not negatively impact the enjoyability of the dish like I thought it may. It came with limes, fried plantains, and an avocado salad. I recommend utilizing the limes, and trying the avocado salad simultaneously with the snapper. The meat platter came with chorizo, both links and pulled, fried pork belly, rice, a fried egg, red beans, sweet plantains, and avocado. Of the 3 meats, the links were my favorite. As for the 2 kinds of plantains, I definitely preferred the sweet over the fried. This was a solid meal, and you can't go wrong with any of other the menu options, either.

Disappointing Turnaround - Great Potential, Terrible Service and Quality Control…read more We had a great experience during our first couple of visits and for that, they get a couple of stars. Even though their signature dishes are Salvadoran, we order their traditional tacos, and they were easily a 5-star experience. Unfortunately, our visit today literally and metaphorically left a bad taste in our mouths, and we will not be returning. My wife and I ordered our usual four tacos each. The moment we both bit into the Al Pastor, we immediately looked at each other in shock, the meat tasted foul. Wanting to give them the benefit of the doubt, I figured they might just not sell their pork as often, but it was bad enough that it should never have been served in the first place. The real issue was how management handled it. I brought the matter up to a female staff member, and then to a male staff member who stepped in because she didn't understand me. Instead of handling the feedback professionally, the gentleman defensively questioned if I even "knew how marinated pork tasted" and then gave us the cold shoulder. I explicitly told them I was still going to pay our bill in full; I just wanted to alert them to a potential food safety issue. There was no apology, no courtesy offer, and absolutely no accountability. They simply went into denial and thought we didn't know the difference between marinated pork and spoiled meat. To top it off, when I went to pay the bill, the same man pointedly told me I needed to select a tip option on the screen before I could tap my card. While I normally have no issue tipping, I was in utter disbelief at the audacity to push for a tip after such a defensive and unaccountable interaction. I genuinely hope their kitchen and pantry hygiene are up to standard so no one gets sick, and I wish them well. However, they completely lost a customer today due to poor quality control and even worse customer service.

La Bodega is a small Dominican store with groceries and prepared food. There are 3 small aisles of…read moregroceries - one with mostly drinks and refrigerated proteins, one with sauces and dry goods, and the last with some cleaning supplies. Towards the rear, there are racks of spices, a very small frozen food section (one freezer) and some produce. I'm guessing they don't actually sell any of the produce - it's probably just there as storage until they cook everything? The real magic of the store is in the back, where there's a small counter serving all sorts of delicious goodies. On a Saturday for lunch, there was a steady stream of customers picking up orders and eating. Just be aware that this is a family owned establishment that takes time to prepare food - lunch was supposed to start at 11:30AM, but they didn't have most of the menu ready until around 12:30PM. For people who are less patient, there is a prepared food counter with various meats and stews and a display with some fried foods. We opted for a couple of items: Fritura Mixta ($18.50) - Wow, this is a giant plate of fried meat and tostones. Deep fried beef, pork, chicken, longanisa, each one seasoned and drained well. Not greasy or oily at all. This is seriously a meat overload, in retrospect, we should have ordered a couple of additional sides because, to be honest, we aren't huge meat eaters. Still delicious. It took about 20 minutes to come out because everything was fried fresh. Cheese Bollitos ($2.50) - Think of a fried mashed potato croquette with a slightly different yucca flavor profile. These fried pastries aren't fried to order - instead they are probably fried in the morning and stuck in a heated display cabinet until they are ordered. They don't have the best crisp exterior and aren't exactly piping hot, but they are still good. Chicken and Cheese Empanada ($3) - These were definitely differently shaped vs. other empanadas I've had. Quite a long half moon filled with well seasoned chicken and rich cheese. Similar to the bollitos, these are not fried to order. We went back a couple of weeks later for some of the items on the dinner menu (only available after 5PM) that aren't served during lunch. It took around 25 minutes this time for the food to come out. Chimi de Pierna ($13) - This sandwich consisted of pulled pork, red cabbage, onions, and tomato on a super pillowy bun. The ingredients were heavily seasoned with a sweet and somewhat vinegery sauce that was quite similar to a bbq sauce. Be careful eating this one - since the bun is so soft, the ingredients start spilling out with every bite. Mofongo ($20) - Super garlicky, pretty classic mofongo mashed with chicharrones. Our meat of choice was additional chicharrones - super well fried with a great crisp and chewy fat. It came with two small containers of sauce that was not a normal mojo de ajo. It was limey, porky, very fresh, and paired perfectly with the carbs and proteins. I would definitely get this again. As a side note - they charge a 4% credit card fee. La Bodego is a great addition to the area. Definitely stop by to get some good Dominican food!

I haven't had a true Cuban food experience which technically Frita Batidos isn't- Eve the person…read morewho started this experience hails from Cuban roots based in Miami! The foundation for a good meal here is a frita - a fried patty with bread and toppings like an egg and/or tropical slaw and shoestring French fries. The batido - complements the meal so well and is essentially a smooth fruity fresh smoothie. From flavors like passion fruit to coconut cream to hibiscus, the lean more sweet than fresh fruit but make for a good refreshing drink for after a long day! The fritas are SO good with the tropical slaw! This will be my new spot in A2!!! One note: the way food is delivered to tables is by shouting out the name which can be impossible to hear for yours when it's extremely packed (which is usually the case). Otherwise, the space has good seating both indoors and outdoors.
