    My cocktail
    Tippy P.

    For my friend's belated birthday, we decided to take her to this new restaurant that opened down the street. I've been hearing so many reviews about this place, had to go try. Restaurant is small but cute, purple lights and flowers hung from the ceiling. They're still in their soft opening phase and menu has fewer options. We ordered a variety of appetizers and whole baked fish. Everything was delicious. I'm a sauce girl, we asked for all the sauces available for the fish wrap. Out server brought out everything they offered as dipping sauce. They recently added alcohol as well, more cocktails soon to be added.

    Charming spot in Blaine; everything we tried was tasty (though the sauce could use more flavor). The branzino lettuce wraps were my favorite. The service was excellent and attentive, and the ambiance was pleasant with music at a suitable volume for conversation.

    Fast service, awesome food and great atmosphere!! Loved all the dishes!! service was great as they came to check on us multiple times and refill our drinks. The pricing of all the food and drink drinks was good. I will definitely be going back.

    Love the food. They were nice and welcoming. Will come back!

    First of all, I love the welcoming feeling when I got here. The staffs are great. Secondly, they have impressive menu. We got new version of banh xeo, bo ne and the grill bone marrow. Those are fantastic. Will be back

    Goi flavorful with the pork belly, sesame chips were fresh out the fryer

    I really loved this place: bright and open, it's incredibly inviting. The staff was warm and…read morewelcoming (thanks Sofia!) and helped us navigate the menu. We especially enjoyed how conversation-friendly it was here. If you're looking to catch up with a friend, this is a great option! As for the menu, you'll find both Mexican and Ecuadorian options. Starting with the beverage offerings, you'll see many flavors of Jarritos, agua frescoes, and some Ecuadorian sodas. I tried the Tropical, which was delicious. Pink and fruity, it was not too sweet and had a little dose of je ne sais quoi. I really liked it! I saw empanadas on the menu, and while I have had them before, never have I ever seen them served with sugar. Of course we ordered them. They were awesome. Exactly the right balance of crisp and tender, the pastry was a delight. (Definitely sprinkle a little sugar on it.) The salty cheese provided a satisfying little cheese pull and went beautifully with the sugar, too. They also go great with the hot sauce, which is a must-have. It's acidic and bright from the vinegar and has a satisfying heat that tickles the tongue and goes great on everything. The plato vegetariano was the epitome of simple and satisfying: potatoes in a delicious and herby sauce; a fresh salad of lettuce, onion, and tomato; a fried slice of plantain; a mound of perfectly-cooked rice; and a cup of beans. It was comforting without being heavy. The dessert menu featured familiar favorites and one that was completely new to me: higos con queso. While I went with the flan, I did get to sneak a bite of this unusual and intriguing dessert: the figs are poached but retain their firmness and are served with a firm and salty cheese. The figs and cheese come with the poaching liquid, which is not sweet but also not quite savory--it's got quite a depth of flavor and makes for a truly unique dish. I recommend it if you prefer to end your meal with something that isn't super sweet. (If, on the other hand, you prefer a more traditional dessert, the flan here is lovely: a bit sturdier than some you may have had, it's got the right blend of sweet and caramelized--it was just right!) Street parking is available nearby, but if you come later in the evening, it will probably park up. This is a great choice for families and friends!

    The first time we went was around 6:15pm on a Sunday evening. It was not crowded at all. There is a…read moresmall shared parking lot a few stores down the block, and seems to be fairly handicapped accessible. Inside there is a small bar, and 2 TVs that had soccer on with the sound turned off. There was some music playing but it was not too loud, very easy to hear conversation. The restaurant is very clean and family owned. Our server was very friendly, as was every other employee. We ordered Empanadas De Carne for an appetizer. They came out quickly, as did the rest of our food. They were good and came with a habanero sauce which was delicious. I am a wimp when it comes to spice, but I kept putting little dabs of it on my food because it tasted so good. My partner used it on everything and even scraped the bowl out with his chips. My partner ordered a Burrito with roast pork. When it came it was very big, plenty of value for the money, and the flavor was AMAZING. The pork was juicy and so very flavourful. It was delicious. He also ordered a horchata. I am not usually a fan of horchata, but he is. I tasted the horchata and I loved it. It was very creamy and had plenty of cinnamon. I ordered the sopes barbacoa. Again, lots of food for the money. I have never had sopes before, but they were so good. The barbacoa was juicy and again, so very flavourful. We will definitely be back, many times I am sure.

    We enjoyed our stop at Victor's 1959 Cafe. We went around 10:30am on a Monday. There is mostly…read morestreet parking and just a couple parking spots behind (possibly for employees only?). Both parking and the restaurant are not very handicapped friendly. Do not go if you are expecting a neat, tidy cafe, it is not at all fancy. Yes, there is writing everywhere, walls, ceilings, air ducts, ceiling, even seats and hanging lamps. The restaurant itself is very small. There are about 45ish seats inside, including the bar area, and just a few tables outside. I ordered a Cafe Con Leché coffee and mango pancakes. The coffee was sweeter than expected, but had good coffee flavor. The mango pancake was excellent. The buttermilk flavor was strong enough that you could actually taste it, which I liked very much. There were lots of mango chunks in the pancake and mango purée on top. I ordered the medium pancake, which was about 6 inches, next time I may order the large. My partner ordered a house coffee, Cubano Sandwich and medium pancake. The coffee was a pretty standard cup of coffee. He said the Cubano was amazing. The roast pork was delicious, the mustard and pickle complement it well, and the black beans were very flavourful. The beans seemed to be house made, not canned. Our server was very friendly and helpful. The food came out very fast. When we arrived around 10:30 there were several empty tables, but by the time we left there was a line to be seated. Seems to be a popular place, which is well deserved.

    Super fun and well worth the trip. We have spent some significant time traveling in Cuba, and this…read moreis the closest we have found to legit Cuban food in the Midwest. The Pan Con Lechon was really the star, although the rope vieja was a close second. Also, don't forget to have three or four of their amazing coffee drinks--you'll walk away with the jitters, but you won't regret it!
