And I'm glad I did. The food was great and the prices were decent. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the horchata. But that's not a normal Nicaraguan drink so I'll give them a pass haha. I would've given a 5 star rating If it wasn't for the B grade. Try the 3 meat plate. My husband and I shared and we still had leftovers. My favorite part was the bunuelos!!! Delicious.

Came here with my parents and wife for a Saturday late lunch and unfortunately we were disappointed…read moreoverall. The churrasco that my wife and I ordered was not only overcooked the chimichurri sauce was tasteless and the cut of meat was very tough. They were supposed to use entraña cut but this was not the case. My dad ordered the Lengua en salsa that had more tomatoes than beef tongue. The pork in my mom's nacatamal was very dry as well. I will say the Tona beers were cold and the curtido chile was tasty. They charge you a percentage on top of your bill if you use a credit card which I was not aware of. Would recommend going a little farther to Portobancos in LA which is hands down the best Nicaraguan food in SoCal and they grill their meats! This one is a hard pass.

Being Nica and spending Mother's Day with my parents here made this experience important to us…read more The food was great overall, and the vigorón was very mediocre. However, my biggest disappointment was the chicharrón ( nothing but inflated air ) It tasted store-bought instead of fresh and authentic, which was surprising for a restaurant representing Nicaraguan cuisine. That was honestly the only major issue with our visit. Everything else was good, but authentic, freshly made chicharrón would make a huge difference and better match the quality of the rest of the food. I hope this is something the restaurant can improve on because the potential is definitely there.

Although I've visited Nicaragua, I didn't get to try the food there. A great opportunity, then, to…read moretry the cuisine closer to home at Sabor Nicaraguense! A cozy spot that caters to the locals, and I'm pretty sure I was the only non-Spanish speaker that day lol. All the same, the ladies running the restaurant were all super kind, if a bit surprised to see me eating at their establishment. Ordered gallo pinto (small) and nacatamal, both served in generous portions (enough for leftovers). Both were really tasty, hearty and flavorful. No frills, but I enjoyed them. Not expensive at all, totaling just under $15 that gave me two meals! Definitely try Nicaraguan food in your lifetime!

We grew up eating grandma's Nicaraguan dinners and this is as close as you'll find to five star fabulously prepared Nicaragua meals. I ordered my favorite, which is Lengua con tomates y gallo Pinto. It's sooo good. My mom ordered pescado, my gringa wife ordered pollo y carne, and my brother ordered steak con maduros, Fritos y papas.... They even have cacao y pinol. All sandy n grainy like grandma made. We have been to the few other Nicaraguan restaurants around. One over by Loyola high school off Olympic, funky location, difficult to get into. The Gallo Pinto in Azusa, which is an easier location to get into with a mix of Nicaraguan and Mexican food. And now we have found this location. And after enjoying all three, I will tell you that this food wise and service wise is the most authentic and flavorful choice. It is five star of Nicaragua food preparation. The only drawback is it's location, nothing you could do about that. My mom's in a wheelchair makes it a little bit challenging to get in because it's not ADA friendly. So plan ahead, use the bathroom before you get there. And be ready for one of the best Nicaragua dinners in the greater Los Angeles area.

The counter sells various goods and clothing. Costillas de cerdo frito: The pork ribs are sliced horizontally so there are round sections of bone in the long strips of crispy flavorful meat. Gallo pinto is at the core of the plate with red beans and rice cooked together with onions. The rice is firm and buttery. The beans are tender. You can also have them served separately. The fried plantains are sweet and caramelized on the outside with soft centers. The rest of the plate seems covered in a hill of crispy thin plantain chips. There's a triangle of fried cheese - tart, firm, and crumbly. Take the pitcher on the table and pour out some of the hot sauce. It is packed with diced pickled onions with a vinegary sauce. Nacatamales: This giant tamal is a breakfast staple typically served with a caffeinated beverage (like coffee or Coke). After unwrapping the banana leaf wrapper, the masa has an orange tint from the achiote paste. The masa is moist, soft, and gooey. Embedded in the huge masa is a grocery list of ingredients, including olives, bell peppers, rice, pork, onions, raisins, tomatoes, and potatoes. It also comes with a big soft fluffy bread roll. Parking: There is street parking.

I ordered the churrasco and the…read morecarne asada plate -- one came with classic gallo pinto and the other with rice and beans, both cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The meats were well-seasoned, tender, and had that great grilled, smoky taste you want from these dishes. We also ordered tostones on the side, which were crispy and great for dipping, but the real surprise was the fried cheese -- absolutely amazing. Salty, golden, and perfectly crisp on the outside while still soft inside. Easily one of the highlights of the meal. Overall, a really satisfying experience with hearty portions, authentic flavors, and sides that definitely deserve attention. I'd happily go back to try more from the menu. Service was great. They brought the food pretty quickly. And we're helpful on trying to decide what to eat. Everything in the menu look tasty and I think these were probably one of the top choices. There's plenty of seating good for family, friends, and for date dates. They do offer valley parking as well. Unless you find parking in the street.

The cacao taste like horchata w volka after taste, there's no alcohol in the drink. I didn't like the tostones, the cheese was on the hard side. If I'm in the area. I would eat here again.

Inside was quite small and doesn't have too much seating. Don't come here if you're in a hurry because food takes awhile. My group of 5 waited ~20 min for our food after ordering. The restaurant can be easily missed since it is a little hidden and it seems like they keep the doors locked because of all the chaos happening lately. Menu had a good variety of meat and seafood dishes. Pricing was reasonable and most of the dishes were ~$20+. Portions are HUGE so make sure to come with a big appetite! Service was very friendly and welcoming Got #9 (Fritanga) - $20.50 and it came with gallo pinto (rice and beans), arroz blanco (white rice), carne asada (grilled meat), tajada frita (fried sliced green plantain), platano frito (fried ripe plantain), maduros (sweet plantain), yuca, queso frito (fried cheese), tortilla and cabbage salad. The Gallo pinto was a little dry and could use a little more seasoning but it was still pretty good. The carne asada was quite flavorful and would have been better if it was more tender. The fried plantains were amazing and super sweet! The fried cheese was interesting and so delicious! The cabbage salad reminded me of a coleslaw so it was nothing special. Overall, I really enjoyed how much food was given and most of the items were very good! This was 8/10 The Maracuya (Passionfruit) drink ($7.50) was way too sweet that I had to add water so that it would be less sweet. I didn't enjoy this and it didn't taste fresh so this was 5/10 Would definitely recommend and return

The food is mediocre. This is one of the closest Nicaraguan places near my family's neighborhood. I'm not impressed. The cacao is real good so is the Fritanga. Today, I tried carne desmenuzada (shredded beef) no flavor whatsoever. I'm not coming back. I paid $81.00 and left the rest of the food. There's only three car spaces to park. The waiter is a teenager. He's very shy. Cute kid, but professionals would be better to serve. Their cook needs to improve or this place is not going to survive with their $$$ prices. I would gladly paid but not for their food or the cuisine they prepped.
