    My younger sister really likes their asada fries. Decided today to try more than just the tacos. Ordered the shrimp cocktail and aqua naturales.

    Love coming here to eat! The tacos al pastor "bien dorado" is so good! The asada burrito and tacos are so good! Great environment super chill! Passion fruit agua Fresca is BOMB!

    Al pastor nachos are amazing!!! Way better than the al pastor fries.

    Love the food. The al pastor meat is the best I have had out here. My favorite are the al pastor nachos or al pastor tacos. The green jalapeño salsa they have is delicious!! They are always very friendly and give us some chips with beans and cheese while we wait for our meal- which the kids love. Would have five stars if they accepted a card payment. It's annoying to have to get cash if we want to eat there. They do have an ATM in the restaurant though.

    As you can see I killed it

    So I get to Palmdale and I wanted to go to Crackin chicken just to see what it look like inside even though I wasn't gonna order anything because of so many bad reviews that I've read So thinking Crackin chicken was across da street I walked across and entered another place only to be in a restaurant called waffle kitchen! Lol So I walked back across da street and went 'La Famosa'-a lil hole in da wall Mexican spot... What is the usual-for tacos-2 al pastor -1 carnitas-1 chicken and a jar Tito's orange drink!!! Not to mention you can choose from all these different kind of sauces red green avocado and they had limes on the side Along with pickled carrots and pickled garlic... just right down my alley Dinner complete!!

    So we have always come here we have even done catering with them , Cynthia and Martha are great cooks and the food is always good BUT every time the owners wife is working we have such a bad experience. Well tonight we ordered a burrito mojodo, quesadilla, rice n beans when I picked up my food there was a lot of people and she looked stressed out. There was an older gentleman trying to order and she just ignored him and he kept saying excuse me I'm not done ordering and she tried to help someone else until the other customer said they could continue to help him with his order and then when I got my food she gave me everything in one bag and I had to bag the rest and my beans end up falling out and she had an angry face and said in Spanish " eso no es culpa de nosotros pero para este vez le voy a dar de nuevo pero tiene que esperar " all the other customers looked like what the heck but I politely said ok but it was totally not my fault. I think there needs to be better customer service skills and patience. I probably won't return anymore.

    Absolutely the best guest hospitality and food quality my family and I have ever experienced eating…read moreout. The atmosphere and ambiance of the restaurant is always lovely, fun, and lively. The food quality is spectacular! I always get the Baracoa Cubano sandwich and it never disappoints. The ingredients are fresh and organic with each dish I've ordered. Since I have allergies to ingredients used to preserve frozen food, it's always been so hard finding a restaurant with a menu that doesn't cause me issues--and Baracoa has never compromised with their ingredients! The organic quality of their food is something you'll taste on your first bite. And finally--the service is impeccable and I have yet to see such excellent hospitality at any restaurant I've visited, even in Los Angeles! The waiters are always kind, attentive, and energetic with their behavior and service. It's very easy to tell they love the work they do and it shows in their work ethic. In addition to that, the managers are always making sure we're having an excellent night and have transformed it to a level of service we've never seen! My parents and I went a week ago and talked to Daniel the Manager about how much we missed a Piña Colada from a closed restaurant which would make it in the pineapple itself--and he said if we promised to be there in a week he's make it himself. We came on Friday, and the joy that my family felt was palpable when Daniel came out with the drinks we've wished for years now since that restaurant closed! Honestly, I've never heard of someone caring for their guests so much to do that--truly everyone should visit this establishment and experience true fine dining. I don't think I'll ever eat anywhere else for a special occasion ever again.

It is all made to perfection and there is not one thing we don't love. For about $32 dollars you can get Havana Bites, it is a taste of some of their great items. It comes with Beef & Chicken Empanadas, Papas Rellenas, Platanos Fritos and Yuca Frita all served with Rico Sauce, which is so great. All of their empanadas are great and you can get just one or a bunch. We often get some to take home. The Papas Rellenas is so good and so nicely priced. It is two mashed potato balls stuffed with Cuban picadillo, then breaded and fried to perfection. I love potatoes so I love to get this. We also take these home. They heat up so well. The service is great and they are very friendly. Parking is easy and there is not usually a wait. I am not sure if they take reservations, so call them and check. The place is comfortable and pretty.
