They are of Nicaraguan cuisine so they have many other choices of plates available. If you like this cuisine stop by and give them a try.

I was in the neighborhood w my parents and niece and decided to treat them to a Father's Day lunch.

This particular trip was special because I took my hubby with my group of college friends and we sat in the restaurant. I had no clue the inside decor was western themed, and it was equal parts random and perfect for the chaos outside in the take out area. Most people seem to go the take out option from the cafeteria window, surrounded by coin operated games and gumball machines. They have a huge menu but the carne asada is the best thing on the menu hands down. Service is quick, but like most dive places in Miami, you're not in it for the chatty waitresses, just the sitting and taking up space over beers for 3 hours with your buds.

It's located in the same plaza as AT&T in North Miami, and it's absolutely worth it.

I also tried the carrot and orange juice, and it was unbelievably amazing--fresh, refreshing, and the perfect addition to the meal. This is actually one of my go-to spots when I'm in a hurry and need to grab lunch to take back to the office. Just a heads up--there isn't much seating inside, so it's definitely more of a grab-and-go kind of place. If you're nearby and craving something satisfying, this spot is a must-try!
