That corn is definitely from a can.

I'm surprised that someone decided to open another Central American restaurant in Charlotte…read moreespecially when there is already another well-established one across the street but here is Las Palmas in what used to be John's Family Restaurant on Westinghouse near South Tryon. We were welcomed and seated, having dinner with a friend. The menu is extensive and focused on seafood with lots of crab legs and shrimp and such. I'm not one to usually trust seafood this far from the coastline so I chose the Carne Asada which was very good. A nice portion with plenty of skirt steak cooked medium rare as requested with rice and beans and a little pico and a roasted pepper. Main complaint is that it was not very hot. I think these plastic plates are inexpensive for the restaurant but they make it hard to keep it hot from the kitchen and on the table. Otherwise, the service was good and the drinks were strong. We would (and will) return to Las Palmas. [Review 99 of 2025 - 4069 in North Carolina - 23666 overall]

It ended with my husband and I escaping to our car in the rain and then 4 of them chasing each other in the parking lot outside in the pouring rain. $5 Margarita and $1 Tacos on a Tuesday or Thursday anyone ? Thankfully we had finished eating before the fight broke out. The place is nicely decorated and clean men & women's restrooms. They even have a place to take photos with cute Angel's wings in lights. The food was pretty good too. They brought out salmon ceviche, salsa, and chips for free to the table and it was excellent ! I got their carne asada taco and taco pastor for $1 each and a $5 Margarita since it was Thursday. The taco meat was a bit overcooked and dry. The tacos also were not authentic in that they did not come with a roasted jalapeno and onion. I had to ask for them after my plain tacos were brought to the table. They charged me an extra $2 to add them. I also got the shrimp enchiladas and they were very good. It was served with rice, refried beans, lettuce, and guacamole. Hubby got a lime jarrito soda to drink and enchiladas gringas (ground beef). He liked it. But the beef didn't have alot of flavor. It was served with sour creme, guacamole, lettuce, refried beans, and rice. I was going to order an appetizer, but they did not have any descriptions of them on the menu. I tried to order something that I THOUGHT was baked potato topped with scallop and chili from the photo, The label directly above it said papa something so I figured I was correctly interpreting the photo. Nope, the label went with the item on the left, which were basically French fries. When my app was deliverered to the table, it was a CUCUMBER, not a potato. I explained my confusion to the waitress. I would advise placing descriptions on the menu so the customer is not left guessing what they are ordering solely from a photo. The waitresses were all very nice. I was not charged for the appetizer I sent back. NOTE : THERE IS AN EXTRA CHARGE / FEE FOR USING A CREDIT CARD. Not sure about coming back. Food was good, but I didn't feel safe. I almost called the police but hubby said there were enough people there to call the police if they wanted to, so we just left.

This review is for they CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST that's done on Sundays…read more It is a fairly new thing they are trying and it is a great idea. It is by weight so you serve yourself and then weight the plate to gluons out how much to pay. This is very common in Brazil and I was very excited to come and experience it. We drove there and arrived around 11:30. The Instagram page said the breakfast goes from 8am - 1 pm. We arrived at 1130, there was nearly no food left and whatever that was left was cold. There's about an hour and a half left on the experience and I could not even get a second plate cause not even that they were replenishing. We told the manager lady that came by the table that we were kind of upset that with plenty of time the breakfast was in such poor shape. We ate cold food. No eggs were left, no bread at all.... And the warm food was in crock pots, even with that. They turned off the crock pots... they were already off when we arrived... at 11:30? For a breakfast experience that is over at 1pm.... I can understand that this kind of experience can be a gamble and the restaurant owner can lose a lot of money in food waste. But there was ways, maybe leaving the table open passing lunch for those who wake up late like me. Sunday is a day a lot of people go to church. At 1205 while we were still possibly trying to take advantage of the breakfast that is advertised to be over at 1pm, they started to break down. So we who were still there couple not have any more coffe of any of the food we came to eat anymore, and anyone that could come in last minute for the experience now will not be able to. If it was someone like me who lives half hour away, get here at noon to have the breakfast I would be very angry to drive and get here on time and see them breaking it down. I told my concerns to the staff and hope it will assist to improve the experience for their guests because this has a lot of potential, but it is not being executed.

I had a pineapple caipirinha. It contained fresh pineapple and was quite tasty. For the appetizer, we tried the chicken coxinhas, which is apparently a must have Brazilian street food. I didn't much care for them, but I don't think these were bad ones. I suspect that I just don't care for the mix of flavors and textures. I'll try the beef ones next time. For dinner, we shared the steak and fries platter and it was delicious. The flavors showcased the steak- no marinade, no sauce, just good steak, decent fries, and a cheese sauce. Between this and side salads, we were well-fed and quite satisfied. Our server was appropriately attentive and offered recommendations. I would recommend this spot for a lowkey, no frills, casual night out where good grub the main thing you're looking for.
