Very beautiful restaurant with an old world charm with its decor. Felt like a dining room at…read moregrandmas. The staff were very friendly and inviting, plus when the order was wrong they immediately corrected it without issue. I got three eggs your way, with sausage patties, hash browns and sourdough toast. Honestly it was good, nothing over the top amazing but a very good breakfast, the hash browns I will say I should sub them since they kind under-seasoned. Also this place was mad busy after I came in, so I can see why they have reservations. It was packed by time I left. Also they have an outdoor pick up window if you don't want to come in.

So, a MexItalian restaurant, sure a little weird, but they do both really well! We arrived here by…read moreaccident when my dad saw a Spanish word on the sign and insisted I turn around so he could read it, finding it odd that there'd be a Mexican restaurant in Poughkeepsie, NY. I had a spicy pasta & chicken dish that was really good & a huge portion of food- I finished just over half, and I'm not one to leave food on the plate (as my ever expanding waistline can attest). The pasta wasn't overdone and the spicy cream sauce was awesome with plenty of chicken for all you "protein bro" bros. Dad got the enchiladas, but he refuses to eat chicken (it's a long story & you don't wanna hear it), so they accommodated him and filled them with cheese instead. Now I think the cheese would have worked better if it had been grated first (and they'd have saved $ too), but they used large slabs of cheese which didn't quite melt too well and were too much for him (yeah, he's difficult), so he pulled about 1/2 the cheese out & I ate it. The refried beans were damn good & the Mexican rice was solid too. I ordered the piña agua fresca & he drank about 1/3 of that, while his jamaica agua fresca was not nearly as good- but for jamaica it was better than I expected (in my opinion, jamaica starts off as bad and usually gets worse). Will I make the 2+ hour drive from my brother-in-law's place a regular thing when we visit Connecticut...? The Mid-Hudson River valley is beautiful and with the food here waiting, it's a solid probably, maybe.

I visited for the first time with my son. While the staff was very friendly, the experience was…read moredisappointing given the $80.00 total. I understand food prices are up, but for a deli meal, the quality simply did not justify the cost. The Issues: * Overpriced: The steak sopes were delicious, but $19.00 for three is way too expensive for a deli. The spinach and egg drop soup ($8.50) was also overpriced and extremely salty. * Incorrect Prep: I ordered a "grilled" veggie sub ($12.50), but the vegetables weren't even grilled. I also asked for mozzarella, but they used Oaxaca cheese without telling me. * Hidden Fees: We were charged a $5 "suprema" fee for nachos without any warning. I also wasn't asked if I wanted to add fries ($3.25), so they were left off. * Health Concerns: I have diabetes, so the lack of calorie/nutritional info made it very frustrating to order safely. * Wait Time: The wait was ridiculously long for this type of establishment. The Highlights: The Aguas Frescas ($6.50) were excellent and highly recommended, and the girl behind the counter was very sweet. Overall: 5/10. The flavors are okay, but for these prices, I expected much better communication and execution. Why this works: * It highlights that you are a reasonable customer (you liked the staff and the drinks). * It makes it clear that the "Deli" setting doesn't match the high-end prices they are charging. * It warns other customers about the hidden $5 fee, which is usually what people appreciate most in a review

The the curry chicken lacked seasoning my husband was able to eat the stew chicken although did not look good to me. The cabbage had no seasoning at all the black cake was dry as a desert. I'm not sure what happened to that restaurant I've been there before and the service was better and the food was better as well. I'm not sure if it's under new ownership but I would never go back there again and I would never recommend anyone to go there. After I paid my bill for almost $75 I said thank you and the young lady just looked at me like she was in another world. Totally rude no customer service skills at all.
