I ordered the Tacos and a Pina Jarrito. Turns out they did not have Pina... so got Tamarindo instead. After a few minutes, they let me know my tacos were ready, and I went and got them. Good tacos... lots of cheese, fair amount of meat, and fried up in some of the drippings. The consomme was ok... very lacking in salt (and since I am on a low sodium diet, I guess that is good? lol! ) Beans and rice were good also. I would order again.

This…read moreis essentially the equivalent of what is known as a "soda" in Costa Rica: a no-fuss establishment that serves comforting Costa Rican and Caribbean staples (the sweet gospel of rice, beans, and plantains). I ordered the chicken and salsa ($8.50) and the patacones ($5). The former came with the titular chicken breast stewed in a tomato based sauce, gallo pinto (the Costa Rican take on rice and beans), maduros (fried sweet plantains), and a fresh cabbage salad. For the uninitiated, patacones (or tostones, as they are called in the Caribbean) are twice-fried green plantains, which are starchy and savory. Think of them as the Latin variant of a french fry. Another great addition is the Salsa Lizano. This is a traditional sauce drizzled over many foods in Costa Rica that sort of resembles a sweeter, more herbaceous Worcestershire sauce. I'm glad I finally got to try it! The food itself was delicious! The chicken was incredibly tender, and the tomato based sauce was surprisingly deep and flavorful. This perfectly accompanied the gallo pinto, where both rice and beans were cooked perfectly with the familiar inclusions of peppers, onion, and spices. Both of these were made even better with a generous drizzle of the Lizano sauce. The salad was a nice counterpoint both texturally and also in terms of the more raw, vegetal flavors. It reminded me of the typical sort if slaw that you would get if you were eating pupusas. One thing that really stood out for me though were the plantains (both the sweet maduros and the starchy patacones). For whatever reason, I haven't had the best luck getting good versions of either of these plantain dishes in Oregon at restaurants that offer them. The plantains for maduros need to be RIPE. For patacones, they need to be super green, and when they're fried the second time, they need to be thick enough to not completely dry out (you're not supposed to be making plantain chips). The plantains at Whapping though, were PERFECT, and should serve as a reference as to how you;re supposed to make these dishes. The patacones were even served with refried black beans and cotija cheese, which I had never seen done before. Now though, I retroactively regret not having eaten the countless patacones of my past without this! I'm so glad that Whapping has opened up here in Eugene. As a Latin/Caribbean food aficionado, this place is very welcome, so be sure to check it out. ¡Pura Vida!

Facets of his food were OK, but as a whole, I was pretty disappointed. I wanted more assertive flavors!! The cabbage salad item was a bland, under seasoned (even if it's authentic), and a dry mess (it didn't help that the actual cabbage was tasteless to begin with. Just leave it off. The red beans and rice were solid. Fine. The chicken was boneless/skinless sadness drowned (boiled) in a generic tasting curry-ish sauce. Give me some flavor on the bone, please. Super gentrified and super pandering to a white-bread boring palate. I wanted more!

They were out of a lot of things including my fave drink Jamaica, but I am giving 5 stars here on the basis of their nachos with pollo, the best nachos I have ever had. The chicken was cooked just right, little pieces of grilled wonderfulness. Mozzarella cheese is perfect here, so much better than those places that serve that canned orange liquid cheese. Things tasted fresh. The only thing that could have improved it was a variety of salsas to choose from (there was just green) and the chips themselves could have been a little less "out of a bag." But I will totally try them again.
