HOWEVER, there was another language barrier issue or mix up that happened a second time. We ordered the beef ribs and some how got the tajadas instead? We'll definitely be coming back & will be checking the menu beforehand to WRITE our orders down. Not sure how this mix up happened for a second time, but it's really no issue to us. But, I'm sure this could be an issue for others wanting to come to try this place. We didn't even mention it, they were delicious!! Just beware & maybe be open to trying something new :)

Honduran food in New Orleans? Definitely!…read more After Match Day, we went to celebrate at Tia Maria's Kitchen. Love, love, love this cozy mama and papa restaurant. It was busy at lunchtime, but it gave us time to reflect on the hard work that led to two of my daughters matching in great residency programs. Two years ago, we also celebrated another amazing match day with a friend who flew in from San Francisco to help our family celebrate. I had the San Pedro Maduro. A deep fried plantain filled with veggies, black beans, avocados, crema and queso. I had mine with chicken. One of my daughters did hers with more veggies. Absolutely delicious! My family ordered a wide variety of papusas and tacos. Definitely add an agua Fresca. Loved the horchata, but the favorite was the moracuya. Blackberry and passion fruit. So refreshing and delicious. Muchas gracias for welcoming our family and friends into your cocina familiar. We loved enjoying your family's kitchen on a special day celebrating another chapter of our family's journey. #2800

Like a Reddit user once mentioned "Tia Maria's is a godsend to this planet" and I wholeheartedly…read moreagree. Everytime I post about this place someone asks me where I am. I've been wanting to hold back on this review because I swear every time I go, there's so many people ordering takeout or dining it! It very much is getting the attention it deserves. I will say, pricier than your other honduran joints but this one is worth it. You can taste the love and fresh ingredients they pour into this place. If you can, go with a group of people so you can try a bunch of dishes. You seriously cant go wrong with anything on the menu but my favs are: Mega Baleada with carne asada and their pupusas! I've had the pastelitos, enchildas hondurenas, combo miramar, combo lempira. Note: Anything that mentions Hondurenas (tacos and enchiladas) they're different than your typical Mexican style!**

I've met who I believe are the mom, her husband, and their kids, and they're all so welcoming. The kids seem to help out a lot and they're very knowledgeable, polite, and professional which makes the experience even better. The food has been really good every time. I've tried their breakfast, pupusas, and empanadas, and I enjoyed all of it. One time the owner even gave me a concha to try without me asking, which I thought was such a kind gesture. The prices are very reasonable and the whole café has a warm, friendly vibe that makes you want to stay and come back again. Overall, it's a hidden gem in Mandeville with great food, fair prices, and a wonderful family atmosphere. I'm definitely planning on trying more of the menu soon

This place came highly recommended, so we made sure to fit it into our NOLA trip. We visited on a…read moreSunday for brunch, and I was able to secure a reservation for my group of 12 by calling the morning before. Check-in was a little chaotic...the hostess seemed overwhelmed and kept insisting that our whole group needed to be present, even though we were all there, just browsing the thrift shop across the street while waiting for our table. We ended up waiting about 15-20 minutes past our reservation time, but given how busy it was, we were grateful to have a reservation at all! To start, I ordered a Bloody Mary, which was so tasty and even came with a piece of delicious chicharrón which was such a great touch. My boyfriend and I shared the lox and the Alma breakfast. The salmon on the lox was fresh, but the portion was a little small for the price. The Alma breakfast, on the other hand, was great especially the beans. Wow! So much flavor. Easily the best part of the meal. My boyfriend and I were literally fighting over the last bites! Before leaving, we decided to try the tres leches cake. This version was a bit different from others I've had since it was on the drier side, served in a bowl of milk. An interesting take, and I really enjoyed it! Perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. While it wasn't my favorite tres leches ever, it was still a solid dessert. Overall, I definitely recommend this place!

We didn't see many reviews online but I'm so happy we took a chance on this amazing spot. Our waiter was very professional and knowledgeable about all the various menu options and while the food wasn't super flavorful, the noms were fresh and well-cooked. We especially enjoyed the spicy cornmeal beef pies and grilled fish that practically fell off the bone! There was a bit of a wait time but it was worth it given the price point and attention to detail. This unassuming hole-in-the-wall needs more love and attention so if you're looking for a family business to support, I highly recommend giving it a try!
