    Half Chicken with plantains & yuca
    Justin H.

    Great Latin American food. The chicken is really on point. A wonderful charcoal roasted flavor that hits the spot. I've had Peruvian style chicken many other places and this is one of the best. Not only was it good, but they also include two sides and a salad. Very good value for the money and the food was served quickly. For me, the only downside is this is a small restaurant with limited seating/parking. It's also in an inconvenient location to where I live. But, with all that said, I'd go back for sure. In my mind, I can still taste that chicken and it's just so good! Overall: Recommended if you are wanting decent Latin American food.

    If you are looking for authentic Peruvian/Latin food, Five Cousins is the place to go. They have great tasting food, friendly and good service, and a relaxing atmosphere. The food was amazing - incredible flavor. The Parrillada was supposed to feed three people with - chicken, pork, shrimp, sausage, vegetables, fried rice, pinto beans, fried plantains, tortillas, and dipping sauces. It fed four of us and we took leftovers home. We even took a second order of plantains to take home. The servers were very friendly and had good recommendations. We will definitely return.

    I've had food from this establishment multiple times. This visit was just the first time I sat down and ate inside since I was with my mom. The guy running the register was also serving the food. My mom and I shared a whole chicken with sausage/hot dogs (salchipollo). Our food tasted ok, but it's pricey for what you get compared to other similar places. Where the meal went downhill was towards the end when the guy working there began cleaning tables and started making conversation with us. He got all religious and started making homophobic remarks. At that point, I turned away and stared out the window before the situation got ugly. My mom noticed and changed the subject by asking him for a to go box. Very unprofessional and rude. I won't be giving this place any more of my time nor money.

    Wow, this was SOOOOO good. I'll be back here often 5 stars. Thank you! YUMM. Not every many seats inside.

    It was open on Christmas! Real Cuban food! This place was great, it reminded me of being in Miami. I got the beef and Fred got the chicken. We shared with May, there was plenty of food. My sides were fries and rice. Fred Thor the yucca. He said it was not yuk-a but yum-a. Mayla Enjoyed her mango juice, but did admit it was a bit sweet for even her. We were so happy this was open and good!

    Wow is all we have to say. We don't know if it's a small family owned business or what it is but it has to be hands down one of the best restaurants here in Knoxville. The service is fast, attentive, and kind. The food is flavorful but not spicy (unless requested) and it's clean. We will be going back 100% left a 50% tip on a $40 bill.

    Small intimate local dive ( in the best possible way ) Quick but not rushed. Smells amazing! Looks amazing! Tastes amazing! The more you embrace it the more they embrace you.

    On the way to Ohio we stopped for dinner here. This place was one of a handful of places that was open on Christmas day. Service was quick and our host frequently checked in on us. They specialize in a fusion of south of the border cuisine, although the owner is Honduran. They have a charcoal chicken roaster which has 7 whole chickens roasting on the spit. Nicole ordered the Lomo Salgado and I had the chicken / steak combo which came salad and a choice of two sides. The steak a little tough but the chicken was tender and good. I had yucca fries which were fried a tad too long, the black beans were runny how I like them. There were only 4 or 5 tables for indoor dining but take out is welcome. I had a few bites of the saltado which was in a nice sauce which worked well with the type of beef they were serving it with.

    My family was staying at a nearby hotel and decided to try this place for dinner after a concierge…read moresuggested it. So happy we did! It was delicious. We enjoyed strawberry margaritas, queso, Mayan fajitas, steak tacos and kids Mac & cheese. Service was great & the restaurant was very clean. Would definitely go back if we're in Chattanooga.

    This is one of the best places I have found to eat in Chattanooga. The food and service are…read moreconsistently excellent, and the experience is reliable every time. The bathrooms are always clean, which I appreciate. Paid street parking is usually easy to find, though during busy hours it can take a little more time. The veggie fajitas are an absolute treat and full of flavor. The guacamole is fresh and perfectly seasoned, and the salsa is truly top notch. One of the most delightful surprises is that the churros are vegan, and they are unforgettable. The Papillón dish is especially meaningful. It can be made vegan and comes from the owner's grandmother's recipe in Guatemala. That personal touch really shines through and makes the menu feel inspired and unique. There used to be a young blonde male bartender who was hands down one of the best servers I have ever had. He was personable and somehow remembered both your order and your conversations even months later. That level of hospitality really stood out. Prices are not cheap, and the ingredients are not explicitly organic, but the quality, flavor, and thoughtful menu make it well worth it. Highly recommend if you are looking for consistently great food and a standout dining experience in Chattanooga.
