Como no soy de Suramérica y no conozco todas las gastronomías, en ocasiones, antes de ordenar, pregunto sobre un plato u otro para tener la certeza de ordenar algo que me llame la atención. Pues aquí sabía que quería probar la yuca con chicharrón, ya que la había probado en otro restaurante y en esa ocasión sí me había gustado, así que aquí solo pregunté sobre las baleadas. La muchacha que me atendió muy cortés no era; hasta cierto punto sentí que preguntar la había incomodado un poquito. Yo igual no pregunté más nada para no molestar porque es posible que estuviera cansada o algo así. Aparte de la baleada y la yuca con chicharrón, ordené un nacatamal porque ese sí lo había probado anteriormente y me gusta mucho. Lástima que aquí solo tenía una pieza de pollo tal cual está en la foto; para el precio debieron haberle agregado un poquito más porque, de lo contrario, mejor hubiese pedido arroz... La baleada estaba buena, creo que fue lo que más disfruté del lugar; tenía buen sabor. Me hubiese gustado agregarle aguacate, pero no me dijeron que podía agregarlo hasta que el muchacho muy amable de la caja me preguntó si tenía incluido aguacate. Él amablemente me preguntó si quería agregarlo, pero teníamos ratito esperando, así que para no seguir aguantando la fila, le dije que no. Mi amiga ordenó carne de res, yuca frita y arroz; todo estaba bueno de sabor, solo que la cantidad de carne fue bien poquita en comparación a otros lugares y el precio. Quise probar este lugar para llevar a mi familia que viene a visitarnos en unos días, pero después de visitarlo creo que por ahora no vuelvo. Es posible que en un futuro me anime, pero creo que mejor daré oportunidad a otros lugares del área. El servicio fue más o menos; el cajero fue más amable y atento, el ambiente casual y agradable. El parking un poco incómodo.

We placed a pickup order yesterday, and unfortunately, it was a mess from start to finish: The Order: We were missing two baleadas, and the rest of the food was incorrect. The Quality: The tortillas were undercooked (doughy), and the meat was burnt to a crisp. It was genuinely inedible. The worst part, however, was the customer service. After initially being offered a refund via Zelle, the owner called us back and refused to honor it. He actually told us we would need to go dig the food out of the trash and bring it back if we wanted our money back. It's a "damn shame" to see a business treat people this way. We won't be back. Note: I'm uploading photos and video stills of the food now so others can see the quality for themselves. Save your money.

Once I moved to U.S I couldn't believe there was a Honduran restaurant, so I decided to try it out. This restaurant just reminds you so much of your native country, and that home made chimol that you had at every carne asada party. Antojitos Honduran style tacos are really great, they're just the same length and width of a taco you'd get at Honduras (pretty BIG). There's no doubt that this place has "MADE IN HONDURAS" written all over it and that once a 'Pana' comes by he/she will feel like if Honduras is right here. So, if you're ever by Waukegan and want to try a different kind of restaurant.... I recommend you Antojitos Hondurenos, a great restaurant that'll take you on a trip to Honduras without even leaving the States.

I have nothing to compare this to, but my friend was raised in Honduras, and she was so happy eating the food here, that I thought she was going to cry. The only caveat is they don't have a sign out front, or their own entrance, so you have to enter through the Red Iguana nightclub door and then go through the next set of doors on the right hand side. There are two other Honduran restaurants in Waukegan, but we haven't been to them yet, so I'm not sure which one is best. However, this was a really great introduction to Honduran food for me. Oh, and they also sell Honduran cheese, butter, and sour cream!

I grabbed the 2 meat, 3 side special which included: stewed chicken, jerk chicken, rice and peas, cabbage and plantains. There's a solid amount of food and I'm going to be eating on this over the next two days. There's rice and peas were incredibly flavorful, moist and had a hint of spice. The stewed chicken's skin was falling off! That's how tender it was and I love anything with bell peppers and onions. The cabbage was solid with great crunch. Sometimes it can get too mushy, but this didn't. The plantains were just right!! Great palate cleanser as I transitioned to the jerk chicken! And the jerk chicken was a hit!!! Good amount of spice and flavor! And juicy! I also had extra jerk sauce on the side. Hmmmm I honestly enjoyed both chickens and would say if you're unsure of which to get, just get both... you'll definitely order from here again lol I ordered through uber eats and naturally was PRAYING that my order was correct and it was. A nice hefty serving and of course I also have a slice of the caramel cake. Mannn this slice of cake is so dang delicious. The two miles that I run tomorrow for this will be so worth it! This hit the spot and was the meal I needed after the day that I've had!

I had never been to the brick-and-mortar location until now. I stopped in one Sunday afternoon to a restaurant that was not busy on the inside. I noticed there was a steady stream of individuals coming in for carryout. Nevertheless, I had a sit-down so that I could try a few items. I ordered the Belizean appetizer sampler. This came as panades, garnaches, and conch fritters. I liked the panades, which were corn patties stuffed with buffalo fish. They were nice and flavorful. The garnaches reminded me of Venezuelan tostadas. I think that what was a miss for this dish was the drizzle of ketchup. Since I stopped using condiments from grocery stores, the flavor of such tends to ruin dishes for me. I liked the conch fritters. I would order those by the bagful just to have for snacks. My main dish was the stew chicken with rice and beans and a side of plantains. Surprisingly, this was more like baked chicken. There was no hint of cumin, cloves, or garlic. There were no tomatoes. There wasn't a sauce or a gravy. There was flavor, of which I give them that, but the same stew that I've had in Belize and in my Belizean friends' home was not served here. It very well may be that the dish prepared here simply differs from that which I have had before. It wasn't a bad thing. Not everyone prepares every dish the same way.
