One of the reasons why I came here with my family was because of the creative vegetarian options! My mom is vegetarian and has a nut-allergy, with which the waitress was very receptive of and made sure the food was safe for my mom! My mom loved the stuffed Poblano she got, and also loved how it was more than just beans and rice. Beyond vegetarian options, I got the Ancho chile steak and it was SO TASTY! The sauces were really flavorful, and I was surprised about the sauteed arugula (never thought that would work but it was rlly nice). Our waitress was really sweet and super helpful - I wish I knew her name so she could get the flowers she deserves. As someone whos worked in the industry, I know good food and I know good service. Try this spot out if you're visiting -- its a phenomenal place!

Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Our food arrived quickly and was the most delicious food I have had in a Latin American restaurant. I had the Botana Catracha and boy was it amazing!

They serve a great variety of Latin American dishes and have great customer service

Had trouble figuring out how to request a refund from the website vendor. Couple that with the language barrier if you only speak English and it is very difficult to discuss the issue with the staff. They were kind enough to reorder my order for free and I am grateful for that. I will continue to order from them in the future and as long as you can navigate the language barrier over the phone or preferably in person via Google Translate, the food will definitely exceed your expectations.

A hidden gem in Wilmington ... a well kept secret of the locals …read more.. From the outside .. it looks like a road side hole in the wall but once youre in, its a whole new world ! Most people enter the bar entrance where the small patio area is .. but on the other side of the patio is the main entrance where you are created by the host stand .. You would never know how big this place is from the outside but once in... its like one of the hamster cage cages with never ending tunnels to different rooms/area... RSVP are definitely suggested since walkins are usually in Bar area or Patio area .. which isnt bad .. but its limited seating .. Staff here are cool but service can be a lil wait if they are busy . Menu is a Panamanian vibe with lots of good eats .. One of the salsas you must get is the Elote salsa its very nommm nommmm next would be the Goat Gauc which is equally amazing. The Ceviche is a must get ... yes get the Quattro which is 4oz of each one so you can sample all ! The scallops and pork belly of mash is pretty good but would be better over the coconut rice . The special of the day was a sheepshead filet over risotto which was pretty damn good ! The corvina was ok but was a little bit over done and ended up a lil drier than expected. Highly recommend asking for the homemade hot sauce ... its amazing and goes on everything! This is definitely a locals Hotspot and an interesting place to people watch... Will definitely comeback for sure .

Writing about the new location in Castle Hayne which just opened on Castle Hayne Road. We have been…read morewaiting to try it and went Friday night. They have renovated the old space and opened it up into the adjacent store front. It's still a little tight and not long on ambiance but the food is amazing. I had the Texas fajitas which included shrimp steak and chicken. The tortillas appear to be made fresh. Portions are large. I had much more meat than guacamole salad, but it was well prepared and delivered sizzling. My wife had the skirt steak and was very happy with it. My daughter had a chicken dish which was smothered in queso which had just the right amount of heat. My son had tacos made with beef tongue- he is the adventurous eater- and ate every bite, paired with a tamarind soda. This appears to be family run - they were super friendly. Our waiter's English was not good, but we got through and he was very polite. They did not move us along and we needed to ask for the check when we were ready - once we asked we got checked out promptly. Pricing was very reasonable. All in all this is a great addition to the few restaurants in that area of town and as they get their feet under them I'm sure will only improve. We will be back as the food and friendly service is worth the trip.

Gloria a Dios por GRACIAS A DIOS!!! I have passed this place…read morea few times when going to the grocery store and had been curious to try it! Well...yesterday was the day! Let me tell you...if you want authentic Honduran and Mexican food with robust flavors... THIS IS THE PLACE! As per usual, on my first visit to a new place, I ordered several different items to get a feel for what they can do. I went with friends so we were able to try a variety of dishes. For starters, we ordered queso dip, yuca fritas and chips and salsa. I first want to highlight the chips. These were homemade chips fried to order. They paired perfectly with their queso and salsa. The salsa is not your traditional red tomato based salsa. It looks like salsa verde but the flavor is different. Regardless, it was very good! The yuca fritas were phenomenal! Served with guacamole, lime slices and a type of chipotle crema dipping sauce. The guacamole was different as well. We are used to a thick and chunky guacamole, but this was light and easy to dip. Your chip wouldn't break in it! Two friends ordered ACP, which they said was very good. Served with fried plantains on the side. The third friend ordered the steak quesadilla. She said it was likely the best steak she had ever had. Well seasoned and very tender. She even thought it could top True Blue. Fourth friend ordered the quesabirria. I also ordered the quesabirria and a baleada pollo. The quesabirria was wonderful. Full of flavor. The baleada was also good. I'm glad I ordered it because I was able to dip it in the remaining dipping jus from the quesabirria! I normally take photos, but I was so excited about all the food I didn't even think to pick up my phone! Definitely check out this hidden gem of Latin flavors! You will not be disappointed!

They have a variety of arepa fillings, including vegetarian as well as vegan cheese. You can choose whether you want it grilled or fried. Partner and I ordered both grilled ($8.75) and fried beef ($8.00) arepas and we got a huge portion of shredded beef. His beef was bulging out of his arepa. The beef was flavorful and moist, with a salty seasoning. The arepa corn flour dough thickness was good, not too thick and not too thin. We both couldn't finish our arepas-they were very filling. I'm glad I didn't order an addition of cheese because that would have been way too filling. They had 3 sauces you can add to your foods. Only got to try 2 of them: a spicy orange colored one and a cilantro one. They were both mayonnaise-based and made the arepa taste much better. Also tried a tequeno, a fried cheese stick of queso blanco enclosed in a pastry dough. The tequeno was good, not oily. White cheese does not melt much, so it's not very stringy. They advertised on Facebook (on the day we visited) that if you ask for the daily special you get a side of plantains for free. The plaintains came with cheese and were cooked well with some crispy bits. Next time I will try other arepa fillings!

Tried the Chorizo, Al Pastor, and Barbacoa. Service was friendly and quick even though it was super busy. I agree with the other review that points out that English may not be the first language of the employees but they didn't seem to have any issues understanding us. I'm not the biggest fan of corn tortillas, but theirs were really good, and tasted fresh (curious if they are made in house!). Definitely not like the dry crumbly corn tortillas you can buy at the grocery store, and for me that's one thing that sets a good taqueria apart from a great taqueria. The complimentary chips & salsas were delicious too. The orange sauce was super spicy and I loved the green salsa too which was slightly less spicybut definitely still had a kick. We'll be back fo sho!

It was melt in your mouth. The rice is pure, no veggies added, and had a unique enjoyable seasoning. The refried beans are a bit "wet" and lacked a wow flavor. Flour tortillas were griddled perfectly to bring out the flavor and a little crunch. Salsas are good for Wilmington, but not kick ass. I'll return for the authentic vibe of my meal.

We will definitely return in the near future.

The Patacones aka tostones ($11.15) was basically a small plantain sandwich with tons of shredded beef, slice of fresh mozzarella cheese, green sauce, sweet sauce, sandwiched in between two small crispy tostones. Wish I had some salsa to add to it to add extra flavor. The Asadita Steak ($12.25) was an arepa with carne asada, pico de gallo, green sauce. The arepa dough itself was crispy but a bit too oily. I liked their creamy mayo based spicy sauce they gave in separate containers. Not much vegetarian options other than sweet plantains and cheese. Food was overpriced, but still a solid food truck to try if you are willing to spend extra.
