Support your locals baby! Downtown finallyyy has great Latin food and it's here. While they have…read morerecently gone viral on social media, I believe it's worth the hype. They bring together the best comfort food from Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. Staff were focused and very kind to everyone who walked in. The place is also consistently busy, one person leaves and two more walk in. You can expect to wait 10-15 minutes for your food but the upside is everything is made in the moment so it will be fresh. Pro tips: There is a small parking lot in the back of the building otherwise you'll need to find street parking. Also you want to set the moment right with Passionfruit juice or a Coco Rico!

We found it totally by accident, just a random stop next to a venue before a show and suddenly I was transported straight back to my NYC days when late‑night chimis were basically a lifestyle. They do have chimis here, but the real star of my personal universe is the Tripleta. Chicken, pernil, ham, lettuce, tomato, potato stix, and that glorious kreme sauce all stacked together like they're auditioning for the sandwich hall of fame. It's so good I don't even pretend to have self‑control anymore, I order one to eat and two to take home because future‑me deserves happiness too. Then come the maduros, sweet and caramelized just right, the kind that instantly hit you with Caribbean nostalgia like a warm breeze and a memory at the same time. And the empanadas? Massive, golden, and addictive. The shrimp scampi one is almost always sold out, which honestly just proves everyone else has good taste too. The vibe is pure Dominican quick‑bite energy: walk in, get hit with the smell of sizzling goodness, and catch the soundtrack of mainstream dembow or reggaeton bouncing off the walls. It's the perfect pre‑game, mid‑night, or post‑party stop, especially since they stay open until 4 AM from Thursday to Saturday. That alone makes them a community service. And because the business started in NYC, the staff will happily chat with you about the city, the food, the culture, whatever you're nostalgic for. It feels like home, but with better parking. If you want real Dominican flavor, late‑night energy, and sandwiches that will ruin you for all other sandwiches, Los Tres Golpes is the move.

Flavorful Latin comfort food and delicious desserts…read more Stopped by Sofrito Latin Cafe in Orlando and ordered the pulled pork plate, cachapas, and a Nutella empanada. The pulled pork was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. It was well-seasoned and paired nicely with the sides, making for a hearty and satisfying meal. The cachapas were a slightly sweet, soft, and comforting with a delicious filling that balanced the corn flavor beautifully. For dessert, I tried the Nutella empanada, and it was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. The pastry was warm and crispy, while the Nutella filling was rich and indulgent without being overly heavy. Service was friendly and welcoming, and the staff made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The vibe is casual and cozy, with a neighborhood café feel that makes you want to linger a little longer. It feels like a hidden gem where the focus is on flavorful food and warm hospitality. Overall, a great spot for Latin comfort food with generous portions and authentic flavors. I'd definitely come back to try more items from the menu.

First time at Gozambas in 2026. They still have the tacos deal and of course, the Toro too. I took…read morethe margarita for 14 dollars and it was pretty good and strong enough to tranquil this cowboy. The shrimp tacos were a great deal for 8 dollars. 3 tacos with meaty and plump shrimp and fresh veggies in a light sauce. There was a small amount of spicy sauce to kick it up a notch. It took a while to order dessert, but the cheesecake (8 dollars) was fine and they were very to give me an extra slice. While the food is good, the service can be pretty slow and sometimes careless. I thought the people next to me at the other table were patrons, but they looked to be advertisers for the food and promotions. The other staff can get busy, so it is best to pack some patience. When I paid the bill, always a good idea to ask for an itemized bill, so you know what's getting charged. When I paid the bill, I think they first mentioned that it didn't include tip, and I didn't have proper change to give them cash. But after looking closer at the total cost, I am pretty sure it included 20 percent already. Staff needs to be honest about this. Honestly, you all know why I came and this is the reason why I always come on a Tuesday... The mechanical bull! It always comes on Tuesdays around 8:30, and normally ready to ride 15 minutes later. I did not see any other guests ride, and the only other riders was the advertisers. So I took a couple rides on it, and it was just a fun and enjoyable ride. Since the ride operator knows me, he normally goes at a pace where I can just enjoy a thrill without risking of falling off. Good practice before riding the real ones. Honestly, this cowboy is selfish. If it wasn't for the bull rides, the restaurant would just be another nightclub place.. While the food is good and the security staff are nice, the service can be slow and maybe dishonest. I still enjoy this place and love going on Tuesdays mostly because of the free bull rides. As long as they still have em on Tuesday, I will keep on coming to practice, and hopefully will be ready to ride the real bulls again soon! Overall: B- for the restaurant. A+ for the bull rides.

They were requiring the purchase of 2* bottles in order to seat my group of 5; the manger allowed us to still seat us in one of the sofa/VIP area" since it was 2 hrs from closing time.

The alcapurria was absolutely delicious, traditional Puerto Rican taste. Now the tostones appetizers were not my favorite. The chicken did not taste good. I personally will not order this again. As for the food, I ordered the pollo a la plancha with white rice and beans. Of course it was absolutely delicious and flavorful. I would say the chicken was a bit dry. It could use some sautéed peppers and onions next time. Other than that everyone else at the table thoroughly enjoyed their meals. When I'm in Florida, I will definitely come back. Service was outstanding and I love the decor in this restaurant.

I reorder what I selected and they did not honor the price (despite her pulling my order) that I was quoted on Uber Eats. I'm sad because I was looking forward to this but I did not want to pay almost double the price and it felt like that's why my order was canceled.
