It's cozy in the main dining area when there's people, but we had attentive service. I love their sandwiches here. The clearly bilingual waitress even indulged (and gently corrected) my broken Spanish as I ordered one! They have their specials chalked up on the wall to easily see, and the kitchen is right below it. Everyone worked in sync, bussing tables and making sure folks were seated promptly. I've never had a bad meal here. Everything is so, so good. The only downside is that they ran out of the wine I ordered, so it's a testament to how wonderful their food and drink are.

This dish was truly a masterpiece and could easily feed a small village. It is the ultimate buffet on a plate, featuring pork belly, beans, rice, sausage, steak, avocado, plantain, egg, and an arepa. After consuming this meal, we were left in a food coma for hours. We also ordered their churrasco, which was another generous portion. It included rice, avocado, fries, eggs, and steak topped with a flavorful sauce. To wash it all down, we enjoyed a natural drink. Blackberry drink with milk.

SPACE There are a surprising amount of tables in this bright and colorful restaurant! It may seem small from the outside, but there's probably 10 tables for in-store dining. I love the painted murals of El Salvador and decor! SERVICE You can do counter service for takeout, or they have full service for dining in. Our server was wonderful and helped with recs. DRINKS You can get margaritas, beer, and other drinks here, but our minds were set on aguas frescas. Their tamarindo and jamaica were AMAZING! Must try. FOOD We got their: - chips and salsa - free at the table for dine-in - birria pupusas plate - must have! Delicious. Or any of the pupusas. - tacos - multiple meats.

The tacos and tamal were also delicious with meat cooked nicely and fresh toppings and flavorful sauces. The staff here is wonderful and the inside is casual and fun.

Recommend: chicken tacos (sometimes they have fish, both are good), Casado with meat or veggie, which is vegan just be sure to specify. Yucca fries are a must, green sauce is my favorite. Neither the green or red sauce are vegan. Ambiance was lively and fun as we learned they have salsa night on Thursdays! Parking: it's in downtown Robbinsdale, so they have a shared parking lot and free street parking.

The space is big and spacious, with plenty of street parking plus their own parking lot in the back. We started with delicious cocktails like their margaritas and piña coladas, served in fancy glasses that made the experience extra fun. For dinner, the fried calamari was outstanding, and the mussels were incredibly fresh. That coconut broth oh so flavorful! I think it's used in several other dishes, and I highly recommend ordering it. The skirt steak was perfectly cooked, tender, and packed with flavor. Overall, such a great meal and experience. I can't wait to go back again!

Salmon mousse appetizer was refreshing. The winter vegetable salad was surprisingly large and filling with sweet potato, beet and tangy cheese. Possibly my favorite thing was the warm cocktail in between the salad and main course! They described it as a Latin version of mulled wine- but light and citrusy. Loved it. The ribeye was of course amazing- cooked to perfection at medium rare. And the au gratin potatoes did their job as comfort food. The flourless chocolate cake and crème brûlée were also fantastic and rich. Only not so great part was that my husband could not have several of the items on the set menu due to his dairy and gluten allergies. They tried to accommodate him, but some of the dishes were already prepared with dairy and there were no alternative options. So we likely won't do a set menu night again (although I got two desserts out of the deal!). But I am continually impressed by this place and will be back!

I split a chicken plate and the vegan bowl (plus a side of yuca) with my partner. I can't eat dairy, and it was easy finding items that fit my needs. The vegan bowl was to die for, I loved the mix of curry and pineapple (the best fruit, BTW), it all came together so well. The chicken plate as good too, especially the plantains, the rice and beans, and the sauce. The fried yuca was great too! Our server was great, super attentive. Prices are mid-range, it's not cheap, but the food is worth it. They have a small patio and a larger indoor dining room. All in all, a great spot in NE Minneapolis!

The rotisserie chicken, the fried yucca, the beans and rice. It is all so darn good. Consistently good across the board. Their fried yucca is world class, IMO. It gives us that little taste of home. While eating there is good, the service is fine, what jumps out to me is that the food stands up to the takeout test and is equally as good at home. I also like doing takeout because parking is really tight onsite.

You seat yourself so most people were snagging whatever spot they could get. You order at a QR code so there isn't actually a server. They had water you grab yourself but it was on the other side of the bar and not in an obvious location. So just be aware that it is there but you might need to look for it. The food came quick. My friend got the cool ranch wrap and chips and queso. I got the cool ranch wings. Their chips and queso is very good although I could do without the onions and jalapeño on top. The wings were alright. I wasn't really getting that cool ranch flavor and it tasted more just like your standard dry rub. I wasn't a fan of the ranch itself. My friend didn't care for her wrap as it was cold and she felt that the chicken was actually raw/undercooked. She also didn't get any cool ranch flavor come through: Not sure if I'd recommend this place or need to come back but I have had their quesadillas which were good and I did like their queso.

We had James as our waiter and he was awesome and very kind. The drink options were very unique and delish. I loved the menu, it had a mix of all different types of food and flavors. The portions were good, we had some leftovers. Elote: 9.2/10 full of seasoning and flavor. Absolutely doused with flavor. Brussel Sprouts: 10/10 perfect in every way. They were perfectly cooked and charred with lots of seasoning. Mac & cheese: 7/10 it was cooked perfect with a lil crunch but it lacked seasoning, maybe a lil more salt beef tips: 10.1/10 if possible. These were my favorite!!! Perfect sized pieces, super tender, juicy and cooker perfectly. The seasoning was perfect for the beef. Paired well with brussel sprouts miso glazed salmon: 10/10 okay i'll be honest...my cats name is miso so i felt weird ordering it but WOW. Absolutely immaculate. The miso glaze tasted fresh and homemade and perfect for this salmon. the salmon itself tasted very high quality and prepared to perfection. house rice: 8.5/10 well seasoned and well cooked, maybe a lil citrus flavor would make it stand out

During the day it is never too busy, so even stopping in for a quick lunch is simple. Typically there is only 1 person serving, so it can take awhile to get your food. I often order a drink and an appetizer to hold me over while I wait for my meal. Remember to ask them to bring it out when its ready so you don't have to wait. Often when I have done this, the app and meal are all brought out at the same time. I really enjoy the Miso Salmon, brussell sprouts, salad and mac. The drinks are fun, floral and creative. Soon they will have a cool outdoor summer patio space!
