AN ABSOLUTE GEM. spanish-speaking family-run little hole-in-the-wall Honduran restaurant in a neighborhood that's gentrifying around them and running authentic latin american places like these into the ground. incredible spread of honduran food, took a normal amount of time to come out, and extremely kind/thoughtful service. they just don't speak much english! pull your google translate out or point to what you want on the menu - simple! i came for a date (with an hondureño) and i was early and hinted i wanted to sit outside (if they had seating), and the whole family that was sitting out there got up, cleared their things, and cleaned up for us to sit outside - before i could say stop! and prices are CHEAP for NYC! an absolute new favorite of mine and my first time trying Honduran. the food was to die for and i had leftovers for days. keep this place in business! just expect a normal Latin place with a baby, music and TV on! staple for the locals; bad reviews sound like they've never been in a latin joint, or a place trying to survive, or any ethnic place that doesn't cater immediately to english speakers.
This was my first time having Honduran food. Restaurant was pretty empty, made me a little skeptical. I was recommended to order super baleada. I had no clue what to expect. When I got it looked like a oversized taco. Baleada was amazing tasted nothing like a taco was super flavorful. I truly enjoyed the food. Down side was that the service was bad. You would think since restaurant was empty they would have paid more attention to us but they didn't.
I can not speak to the previous posters experiences here. I eat in or take to go from this place at least once a month. The food is fresh, made to order and right in front of you by a small army of tias. The food is delicious and cheap, I just ordered enough food for 3 people and it can to a grand total of $19.00. They are also opening a new location on Melrose St to house the bar to separate it form the dining room.
