This is a food truck so they are in different locations all the time. We were lucky to catch them at the ALV Vintage Market. The staff is friendly and gives you a beeper to notify you when your order is ready. This shows that they make them fresh and you can taste that it is. They are always set up at cool events with a relaxed feel. My only complaint is that the plantains were a bit undercooked, other than that everything was great!

It was the end of the festival and we were lucky enough to snag one of the last available pulled pork arepas, fried yuca and sweet plantains. The girl taking our order, Maya, was so friendly and personable. Our food was ready quickly and came out piping hot and fresh. The fried yuca was crispy with a drizzle of delicious green sauce. The sweet plantains were fried to the point where the exterior of the plantain was just caramelized enough, but the star of the show was the pulled pork arepa. Imagine a pulled pork sandwich with crispy arepas as your bun topped with jalapeño coleslaw and pickled onions. The flavors of the toppings combined with the juicy pulled pork is top tier. Everyone was friendly and made you feel right at home. Will 100 percent be following them on Instagram @lamonona2024 to see where they post up next!

The owners did a great job creating a more Latin feel like mom and pop restaurants in Miami. The food is still great they had a few different plates with more dinner style but the portions were great. Hope they can get fully back up but glad I can get tostada, Cuban coffee and food just like being at home. If you're near Reidsville, NC stop by. The town decorates for holidays too so there's selfie spots and places to walk off the yummy food.

I was especially interested in the Toasted Cuban Bread, the Authentic Cuban Sandwich, and the Pan Con Bistec, and tried them all over several visits, along with Chicharrones, Ceviche, plantains, Fried Chicken Sandwich, Ropa Vieja, Street Corn, and more. My experiences here were definitely a mixed bag with both the food and the service. On one visit the service would be fine, and on the next it would be awful. Time for food to arrive on the table varied greatly, even when the restaurant was not especially busy. The Cuban Sandwich is decent but it doesn't scream "South Florida". I was more impressed with the Pan Con Bistec, a better choice in my opinion, as is the Fried Chicken Sandwich especially with a side of sweet plantains or yucca fries. The Toasted Cuban Bread, the Street Corn, and the Ceviche were also pretty good choices, as are the Chicharroes. I did not care for the Ropa Vieja at all, nor the Cuban Deluxe Sandwich, too much going on, croquettes adversely effected both the taste and the texture if the Cuban! I was sorry to hear that the restaurant will close permanently on Aug 24th. The owners site a drop in business due to the downtown parking situation (which likely will only get worse with the coming changes), safety concerns by potential customers, as well as rising costs in almost all areas of operation. Winston will lose yet another solid, sit down restaurant, most likely to be replaced by another fast, casual spot with a trendy, funky menu.

The sauce/dip that comes with the yucca fries was bomb - some kind of aioli. The cocktail drinks were okay - a bit small and watered down but the food was awesome! Would come again.

The pork rinds were good, and the plantains were sweet, but the sausage lacked the typical chorizo flavor I was expecting. The breakfast was decent, though nothing particularly standout. The Colombian breads we took to go were definitely the highlight of the meal. Service was friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. It was a good experience overall, but I'd be curious to try the lunch or dinner menu next time.

I got there at Noon on a Friday, it was not too busy but we were a party 5 so once we got in the place looked a bit crowded as we had wait in line to order. When we got to order it got busy, so another server came in to help take our order so we didn't have to wait for long. The ambience in the restaurant was amazing! It had a an amazing Latin vibe with great music playing and food to back it up. I was with two people who grew up in Miami, and they agreed with me so I know this was a good Latin restaurant. Coming to the order, I got a shredded chicken torta with no cheese along with their spiciest salsa and verde salsa on the side and the boiled (they had fried as well, but I just wanted to be healthy) yuca. The torta was delicious, the spicy salsa gave an amazing kick to it and it chomped it down in no time. The boiled yuca was a bit bland but the verde sayce helped with that. With my friends from Miami loving this place, I will definitely be back here to try out mlre items out of their menu!

Issues such as ordering an order of chicken empanadas and an order of beef empanadas and they're in the same box and you can't which is which. However, with a call ahead to ask for separate boxing, they followed through! The server on the phone was kind and understanding. The food... wow! The empanadas are AMAZING. BOTH the chicken and beef are perfectly cooked and filled with flavor. My friend ordered the Bistec con Tostones and loved it! She orders with black beans instead of refries beans. She wishes there was cheese involved and will order a side of cheese on the future. She loves the house dressing and the Peruvian. Wow! So cilantro heavy and yummy and creamy. I ordered the ACP and ADORED it. Perfectly cooked chicken and rice was lovely. Broccoli, onions and zucchini on point. I'm personally obsessed with the pink dressing and poured it over my whole bowl. Love love love. Will be back. Thank you!
