The menu is very prominent and easy to read. Order at the counter and pay, and the food will be brought to your table. Staff were bi-lingual which is always a plus~ I did notice that a bell must be rung if you need something because the server is mostly in the back probably working. I could hear from the back, the popusas being made! They were the best! Absolutely delicious ~ I ordered the the al pastor tacos. They were ok. Very greasy for my taste. Popusas were my favorite!

Rating: 4.3 Came to…read moretry for lunch. It's a small Mexican restaurant located in a plaza in Johnston. Parkings are available on the plaza. Inside is small with few seats and a counter where you place orders. It was not busy when we went so we placed an order and sat down. We got a homemade pineapple juice and few tacos including chorizo, steal, al pastor, and fish. Fish was not able to be ordered as single for some reason. Pineapple juice was tasty and natural so it wasn't too sweet. It was foamy maybe from blending with blender? The tacos were pretty good. Everything was seasoned well and came with some spicy sauce and lime. Personally I liked the chorizo and fish tacos the most. Steak/al pastor was a tad bit dry but wasn't bad. Service was good. Took a but for food to come out but I can tell they make a lot of things in the restaurant and prepares it after its been ordered. Overall, the place was good. It's a solid Mexican restaurant around the area. I can't say it's the best I've had though as there are a-lot of good competitors in RI. I would get chorizo tacos and their juice again if I come back.

Wow, this place is incredible! The portions they provide for the price is amazing…read more I got the 1/4 chicken with chaufa rice, plaintains, yucca fries and pico de gallo for $17. My apartment is 10 minutes away and I barely made it home as I almost had to dig in because it was making my car smell so good. The chicken was very juicy and everything else was just as delicious, especially the little sauce that they provided. I'm not surprised though that Brasa y Chifa is this good because Los Andes is top-notch. It's very clean inside and the staff were very friendly, even though I was just picking up

Oh how I thought this place would set my heart on fire! Sadly, it disappointed on the aspect of…read moreoverall flavor execution. Amidst being fresh and brightly colored, the dish was quite bland overall. I begged for some elevated heat and flavor profiles-- it definitely fell short and was not spicy in the least. And I'm not a fan of a grease soaked platter... maybe it settled while I drove home but I definitely mopped up oil with a napkin/strained. No bueno. *Sidebar: They have a delicious green sauce that was really tasty and quite frankly saved the dish. I opted for this in place of a sweet Chili Glaze sauce that is provided because I hate sweet flavor profiles in all things dinner! Lol MVP: A wonderfully kind and efficient staff... the order was complete, error free, prepared timely and everyone was very friendly. The best item I purchased was the SANGRIA topped with fresh pineapple! Not the food-- it was all about their in-house beverages. Unfortunately, the set up is almost buffet like with add ons (I paid extra for Pico de Gallo... this also elevated the dish. With the sauce I selected and the pico, the dish literally would have been as bland as a cardboard sandwich). Perhaps it's me-- my palette is pretty elevated and I love heat. Peruvian dishes aren't exactly known for bombastic flavors, spice and heat... but the crowd and utter lack of parking got me excited. Will I return? Perhaps... definitely for a different item (perhaps the roasted chicken everyone was eagerly ordering) and it's a must on the sangria option! But $32.90 for a very basic fried rice mixed with lo mein moment + salad (I tipped $3 amidst to go).... Nah. I'd be lying if I said it was worth it. Lovely aesthetic and energy, however. Chef's energy on the food though was a miss.... Season! The! Food! Sir!

The staff was competent, effective and you can tell they were organized and prepared, not their first rodeo. They got Us in for a walk in waitlist within 15mins which shocked me as we were 4th in line on their waitlist link. Having a waitlist link was impressive in itself tbh. Love the communication for customers... showing the wait time and which spot in line you have. Chips and water came out quick even with the packed restaurant. At the end, I believe a manager, came by to ask how our dining experience was and to clear the table. Love that ! Nice that the manager jumps in to help and takes time to check in with customers. I was very impressed by their operations. I had el pastor tacos which the cinnamon-ish flavor profile wasn't my taste but the tacos were good if you enjoy that, came with black refried beans and rice. Rice was really good! I had the spicy Diablo margaritas with tajin rim and really enjoyed that as well. My bf had the birria tacos which came with the dip and he said it was mid, could've been better as wasn't much flavor. I also had shrimp ceviche which was ok too. Was hoping for more flavor. Really loved the warm tortilla chips and salsa was nice. We also ordered the cheese queso blanco dip which was really good.

We visited Tu Cafeteria recently and unfortunately the experience felt uncomfortable from the…read moremoment we walked in. The atmosphere was not welcoming at all - it honestly felt like we were bothering the person working there. I understand this is a startup, but it didn't seem prepared or ready to receive customers. The space is very small with limited seating, and the tables felt more like outdoor patio furniture than indoor dining. It was also very cold inside, with only a small portable heater that didn't really help. We ordered two sandwiches -a Cuban and a ham and cheese. When we asked what comes on the sandwiches, the response was "whatever you want on it," followed by "salad," which was confusing. I assumed that meant lettuce and tomato, but for someone working in a cafeteria-style restaurant, the lack of clarity was surprising. The premade food (pastelitos) looked old and unappetizing. The overall vibe was extremely quiet and awkward, with no warmth or energy in the space. When our food was ready, it wasn't brought to our table, the staff member stood in a doorway and expected us to grab it ourselves. I also asked for sparkling water and then regular water, and neither was available. Positives: The sandwiches themselves were good--warm and nicely pressed. The mayo/ketchup sauce, however, had way too much garlic (and I mean way too much). Overall, there's potential here, but the customer service, preparedness, and atmosphere really need improvement to make this a place people want to return to.

Parking can be challenging especially seeing this restaurant runs on Lonsdale Ave a busy street in itself. The line was out the door and that's where I stood waiting patiently. The love moves at a decent pace. Here finally my turn and I honestly had no clue what to expect or what they even really sold but I was hoping they had anything that contained ham and cheese and they did, Brad with ham and cheese for $3.50 I was surprised that was all. They do gave finger foods, drinks coffee and fruit drinks, breads, pastries of many sorts. I was tempted to get a pastry but I stayed focused. The bread was actually good and tasted fresh they only concern which was a big one for me was that there was hardly any ham and cheese in it and I mean like barely none. I could have actually went with just bread as that's what I felt I received. Would I return maybe especially if I am in mood for something g sweet as the variety was plenty to choose from. There is a sit down area on both sides of the restaurant with one big screen tv. This place seems more of a grab and go type establishment. They open at 5:00am and close at I believe 9:00 pm

I don't speak much Spanish so used to get intimidated going into order but the food is just so good, it was worth every trip. Great news is that they just got an online ordering platform! You can order right online for pick up and bypass the long line out the door. The place is always busy but worth the wait, I would definitely suggest ordering online if you are in a rush. They don't have much parking but I always somehow find street parking. It's a very casual place with cafeteria style seating. I get the chicken with potato empanadas, beef empanadas, with their homemade hot sauce. They also have a ton of pastries. All homemade DELICIOUS!

We ordered the chips and guac for 14.50, which comes with beans and salsa, and says says free refills (menu attached). We asked for one refill of beans and one of guac. When we got the bill, we were supposed to see charges for the beans and guac. Our server explained that the free refills were only for the chips and salsa. We asked to see a menu again and pointed out that it says free refills. Our server contacted the owner/manager who doubled down on the misleading statement and charged us for both refills (total of 10.50 additional cost). It's really a bummer because I had read a bunch of reviews on here and my takeaway is that the food is great but the management leaves something to be desired. Be upfront with your customers! It's a great restaurant with delicious food, I'm glad small businesses exist, and I wish that we had been treated with more grace and honesty. Losing $10 on your end (or even just being upfront and stating the refill policy on the menu) is well worth it for a positive customer experience. I would have loved to give this place 5 stars but took 1 off for the misleading pricing and another for the way that it was handled by the manager.
