    With just one visit, Manolito is my new favorite place in the French Quarter. New to me, that is,…read moreas they've clearly been charming locals and visitors alike for years, now. You know how it goes... you live somewhere and keep meaning to try a place and suddenly it's like 8 years later and here we are. Exquisite everything... atmosphere, service, cocktails and food. Aperitivo-style dinners (aka girl dinners?) are my favorite. I love a good grazing. We had the seasoned chickpeas which are fried and crunchy but not dry like baked or dried chickpeas. These are the irresistible kind, the melt-in-your-mouth with salty umami goodness kind. The saltines that come with the black bean hummus are seasoned in the same way, fried, I suspect, but I'm not mad about that. I really couldn't stop eating these and don't get me started on the perfect fries. Drinks, ah the drinks. As much as I wanted one of those frozens, with dropping temps outside, I went for a gorgeous Flor de Jamaica. Think citrus-forward, not heavily boozy (vodka). I followed up with the Mary Pickford, which has pineapple juice and normally I would fear for an overly sweet drink but this is not that. It's more on the tangy/sour side of the spectrum. Both drinks are perfectly light and refreshing. It all felt like the indulgence I needed after a frigid week. After dining upstairs, which makes you feel like you're in a chic loft space, we peeked into the courtyard. I cannot wait to return and pretend that I'm in Havana, sipping on an expertly-crafted frozen drink. It really doesn't get any better than this.

    This place is so cute I felt like I was literally in Cuba. Heard they had a happy hour so we…read morestopped by. Got the floridita and holy sh*t it was such a strong drink. Tasted like limeade. It was only $10. Come here if you want a lot of bang for your buck.

They are a small and quaint storefront establishment, friendly, practicing social distancing and have a plastic partition separating staff from customers. Also, seating capacity is limited and tables are blocked off from use. Because I absolutely love Spanish food, particularly tacos lol, I popped in to check them out. I was hoping I'd find what I love in Miami and it's the Papas Rellenas aka (Fried Stuffed Potatoes). It's a Cuban dish but they are so doggone good. They have this savory and flavorful seasoned ground meat stuffed inside a ball of mashed potatoes and when I tell you they are the bomb, believe me lol. Needlessly to say, they are Honduran and do not cook Cuban dishes lol. However, I'm planning to come back and check out their dishes for either lunch or dinner. I'm eyeing the Burritas Catrachas (the Yelp Spanish event is working me lol). Check them out if you're in the area!

    This place is HORRIBLE , I came yesterday to have a good time with my friend & try out antojitos…read morefor the first time. When I arrived me and my friend were in a good mood until the waitress walks up to us with an attitude, I asked for a certain drink and she shrugs and points to the fridge and says " all that in there is all we have " I got aggravated but I leg it go! I was trying to see what was in the fridge but I couldn't see. After my friend orders her food , I start telling her what I would like and she looks at me and stops and says "so you want what she wants ? " and I proceed to tell her "what ? I don't even know what she ordered I was looking at the menu" and she proceeds to tell me her order , like I cared ??? her order was different from what I wanted. So I tell her " I want the plate just like how it come off the menu" and she walks away. This place not only feels DIRTY inside but has HORRIBLE HORRIBLE rude miserable service!!!! I left after I couldn't stay and enjoy my food with horrible customer service. I WILL NEVER COME HWRE AGAIN

We were desperate to cool off. Their AC was so cool and necessary during the heat wave that we had just spent a couple hours walking through. 2. This place served best rum punch I've ever had. Oh my goodness. Turning down a second one was hard!! 3. I've never had a server who appeared as invested in our order as our guy. I developed an old lady crush on this sweet man! We told him that we are both vegetarians and one is a post bariatric surgery puzzle. He was so sweet and supportive that I would return here weekly if we were local! He made sure we had what we needed. 4. We ordered the roti, two tacos (Rasta & cauliflower) with coconut rice and plantain as the sides. The tacos were both so extra, so yummy, the roti was tasty- but the sweetness on top confused me- we loved the plantain but not the rice. We'd be back in a heartbeat. I want to try every vegetarian option here!

Beef patties were kinda weird as they tasted like they had curry or something, not too bad. This is coming from an actual Trini.

Service Despite having a limited menu specifically for Valentine's Day, service was slow. It took two hours to get through all three courses. We had the same server as the last time, and she was still warmer to my wife. I'm a customer too and will gladly spend my money elsewhere. Another thing I find annoying is they're always trying to get you to buy a bottle of wine. When I saw the special menu on Open Table, it didn't mention alcohol. We tried to substitute the required bottle of wine with mocktails, but that was a no-go. Presentation: 11/10: They make some of the most beautiful drinks and dishes. Every dish is magazine-worthy. Food Ropa Viega--8/10-the meat was chewy, but had a good flavor. The cornbread was ok. Crabmeat Spring Rolls--8/10--these were different, like a crab cake inside of an egg roll. Hanger Steak--7/10--the steak had the texture of roast, and reminded me of my appetizer. The execution, while pretty, didn't align with my expectations. Baked Banana Mango Cheesecake: 7/10: I like that it was light. Oftentimes cheesecake is heavy. Pan de Pan--5/10--I didn't try the ice cream, but this is not a good take on bread pudding. It was way too dry and didn't have much flavor. Green Passion Mocktail--9/10--cucumber-forward, but still pretty tasty and satisfying.

That is unless I learn that a friend of ours from the Pacific Northwest (Where we live) is visiting NOLA. Then it's gon' be like, OMG, U must attend Later breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner and or supper there. No lie. It's several measurements beyond friggin' outstanding. Friendly, kind and patient service (walking one thru choices if not familiar with menu offerings) Let us just say, if love is the number one ingredient you are craving, this family run establishment crushes it!

I've ordered from Uber Eats plenty of times, but this was my first time actually dining in, and I'm so glad I did. It's a small, cozy spot where you can actually see the food being cooked. It gives "grandmas and aunties are in the back making sure every plate is seasoned with love," and honestly... that's exactly what it tastes like. This time I tried the beef liver with onions and bell peppers, and it was SO good. Perfectly seasoned, tender, and cooked just right. Can we talk about the rice for a second? I don't know what they cook it in, but it has to be some kind of broth because it is hands down some of the best rice I've ever had. Every grain is perfectly cooked. It's not gummy, not hard... just perfect. The refried beans? Absolutely incredible. I brought some home and literally had to hide my leftovers from my daughters because they kept trying to eat my food. I've also had their beef soup (the short rib soup), and it's one of my favorites. Their pupusas are delicious, the pickled cabbage that comes with them is addictive, and the sweet plantains are amazing. I ordered a mojito too. It wasn't super strong, but it was refreshing and paired really well with the meal. The service was excellent. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, and I found out they have free Wi-Fi and a rewards program, which I never knew because I usually order delivery. If you're looking for authentic Honduran food in New Orleans, do yourself a favor and check out Tía Maria's Kitchen. Everything I've tried has been consistently delicious, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
