    Chicken and fajitas tacos. GREAT!
    Andy B.

    Great tacos! If you're tired of the same old Mexican street tacos try these for a change. Tortillas are handmade and slightly thicker. Authentic Honduran food. TRY IT NOW.

    My son is such picky eater! But here he will even eat the vegetables! He loves the Puspas salad and tomato salsa!

    Very fresh ingredients. Reasonable prices. $3 enchiladas on the appetizer side of the menu is a perfect portion for lunch.

    It's been a year or three since eatting here. Was going to another place in Denton for my pupusa…read morefix but unfortunately they closed down. So I re-tried a place I use to go to in Lewisville on Sunday, and here today to figure out which one I would frequent. The prices here have definitely changed from a hole in the wall place, even though it's still a hole in the wall place. They offer cheese, bean & cheese, or chicharon & cheese pupusas. They do not deviate. For the first two, pricing is $3.28 each. They give a small serving of curtido so if you like it you'll have to request more. The curtido here tastes good. The pupusas were on the smaller side and were wet in places on the bottom. You can definitely taste the wet texture when eatting. The chicken tamale was on point. They are $4.06 each. A large aqua fresca is $5.60 - no free refills. They charge $1 I was told when asking before I left. They no longer serve their yummy rice with veggies. It is just white rice. I didn't know they changed it, and wasn't told it would be white rice. Paid $3.02 for maybe a 1/2 cup serving. Would not have purchased if I knew this. Also they do not post pricing or offer any menus with pricing. They have the typical display pictures and names of items they serve. You order at the counter and pay at time of ordering. For 2 pupusas (no meat), 1 tamale, side of white rice, and large aqua fresca, my bill was $20.83. I guess I'll continue my pupusa quest.

    Best restaurant in Denton. Delicious food done well…read more The pupusas are always fresh, hot, and go so well with the sauce. The fried mojarra is a new favorite of my spouse and I, and it comes with pickled beets, platano frito (as I call them, or Tajadas,) and some Curtido (like a cabbage cole slaw with vinegar and oregano.) seriously amazing food. The fish was so juicy and cooked perfectly. I am looking forward to hopefully trying everything on the menu over time!! I know it'll all be worth it The service is great and the staff are always so kind and courteous. The establishment is always clean and well cared for, and the seats and environment is cozy complete with television for you to relax and chill. There's a variety of drinks and beverages to choose from including imported drinks. I believe the restaurant is influenced by Honduran and El Salvadorian culture, so the drinks might very well be popular ones from these countries or regions. (: they also make fresh horchata, lemonade, and agua de piña (pineapple). The agua de limón is so fresh and went so well with the spice level of the food, as there is some good heat in the sauces. I love this place and it definitely deserves better reviews. You really can't go wrong here. My spouse and I posted the food on BeReal so don't mind the selfies on the pics lol

    OK! So I stop by this little place by my sisters house which I always see and it's a Honduran…read moreRestaurant! As I walk in he waits to see I if I speak Spanish or English which it's a plus! I am unfamiliar with the food and I have never had it! I come in order my food and he explains to me everything on the Menu! As I am waiting he brings me a Baleada de Frijol, Crema and Quezo I'm sure I misspelled it. He brings it and says try this and don't worry it's on the house. Man it was delicious and I was shocked as it was like a sample but a huge and I mean a HUGE sample. I can not wait to get home and try my food and I'm sure it's just as good as the sample he gave me! I did go back and try to pay for what he gave me but he said no it's ok but still left it as a tip in his tip JAR! Super happy for this experience and believe me I am for sure I'll be back for try their breakfast menu!

    What a treat! This place is in the spot where Destiny's Chicken was (RIP) and the inside looks…read moremuch the same. They have some grocery items for sale up front - cookies and snacks mainly. The menu isn't huge but our waiter (the owner?) helped us choose based on how hungry we were. I said I wasn't very hungry so he recommended the tacos. For my boyfriend he recommended the carne asada. That taco plate was huge and the carne asada was even bigger. I failed to get a photo of the asada before bf tore into it, but it was gorgeous. Served on a bed of fried plantains and accompanied by rice, amazing beans, avocado and pickled veg. Both dishes were blazing hot and made with care. The tacos are rolled chicken tacos, deep fried and topped with cabbage and crema. I could only eat one of the three! I tasted the asada and it was also terrific. Can't wait to come back and try breakfast or a lunch special!

    For the Honduran community, by Hondurans. Thats the best way I can express how I feel about the…read morefood and interior of the place. Saturday at 5PM, it was perhaps too early for any type of dinner rush, cause I was the only person there. The staff did not speak ANY english. That scary moment when you say hello, and the other person stares with no expression. Luckily I could say just enough Spanish to navigate and order everything I wanted without a problem. They seemed to have a smaller menu compared to what Ive seen posted from other people. I only saw breakfast and lunch (in espanol) so maybe I have to come back at a later time for dinner? The interior is not a dump, but its not chic, modern, or inviting either. The best way I can describe it is the type of place you'd see within a courtyard of a mexican bazaar. They blast the music like its a nightclub. I recommend you stay away from the left side of the restaurant if thats going to bothr you. They serve everything on styrafoam plates and plastic cutlerry The area looked clean enough, so theres no complaints on cleanliness. I ordered a baleada mixta, as well as the chuleta plate (pork chop cutlet). The baleada is simple, cheap, fairly big, and cozy like a homemade meal. Their tortillas are legit made in house, because theres no weird starchiness or stiffness in the dough. The ingredients are beans, cheese, eggs, and creama, but damn was it delicious! The cheese they use (im guessing queso fresco) had a lovely tang that gave the meal an extra dimension. I couldnt stop eating this! The chuleta plate felt like I was at a cookout. A seasoned pork chop, served with a cabbage salad, beans, and more plantains than I could eat in one sitting! The chuleta was not super moist, but every bite was well seasoned. I'd say eat the pork chop sooner than later as its not as tender as time progresses. The chimol (similar to pico de gallo) was a nice addition on top. The plaintains are baked? and feel like french fries! The beans were delicious with whatever lard or fat they add to it. The cabbage salad is fine, but I do like the sauce they add, which reminds me of 1000 islands dressing, minus the relish. Overall, I was pleased with my meal here. Ive never had legit Honduran food, so I look forward to having it again!

    Overall: the best baleadas I've had in DFW…read more Detailed: this review is essentially only for the baleadas from Catrachito - because that's what I've had there and that's what I think is amazing about it. I've eaten at Catrachito maybe two dozen times, and each time I've eaten their baleadas (with eggs in them). They are HUGE and cheap (around $2 each, where each one literally weighs like 0.5+ lbs). They are so savory and filling. I have tried many Honduran restaurants in the metroplex, and this is by far the best ones I've tried among them all. The location of Catrachito is located right by Target, it might be hard to miss the entrance based on its location and proximity to the street. It's never been too busy there, and ordering a baleada by phone gets prepared in less than 15 minutes. The inside of the restaurant is not very impressive, but that's okay because baleadas are great good to take on the go or to take home.

    Honestly, I gave this place so many tries before leaving a review. It has so much potential yet…read moreagain lacks service and a sense of urgency. I had work in the service industry for so many years, one of the many reasons why I gave it so many tries but unfortunately I won't be returning. I waited 40 minutes for my food, ordered two plates. I understand some plates cooking times can be longer than others but nothing ever came. One of them was just a simple bean tostada. The time before this I came at 9:20 pm, while it says on google that their hours of operation is until 10:00 pm. The server told me they were closing down and they only had Baleadas so I left to the taco spot next door just to see her turn the sign back on and let another table walked in. It's honestly so disappointing because it's difficult to find Honduran restaurants nearby, and I met the owner's daughter a couple of times and she's truly a sweetheart with a different vision for the restaurant. But at this point I rather make the drive to another place.
