    If you haven't stopped by at La Ceiba., you are missing out! I recently moved to the west side in this location is on a small strip getting off Rockville Rd. At the time I was pregnant and always would crave " pollo en tajas" omg it was delicious! I ordered mines with fries. I have done carry out from this restaurant as well as dining. When you go in for dining, they provide you with salsa and chips for appetizer. They have Authentic fresh waters! (Horchatas, agua de Jamaica, etc. )

    Very authentic. Menu had enough, not too much. A lot of spanish on the menu and a Latina soap opera on the TV. I went around 2p on a Monday. They serve the very spicy red and medium verde salsas w the chips, and I ordered queso, guac, & pico to go along w them. I'm actually not sure if the chips would have been brought without me ordering the other dips or not. The guacamole was very good, all of it was. I also ordered a small steak quesadilla. It was just meat and cheese, which I liked so I could add the pico & guac I had ordered as an appetizer. They don't have fountain drinks, they serve bottled beverages, including beer. The service was just okay. It's a small local restaurant nearby another place I frequent, so I will probably go back to try other menus items once I've tried all the other food establishments in the nearby area.

    We planned on visiting a Honduran restaurant at this address called Sazon Catracho. Upon reaching it, however, we discovered that Sazon Catracho was no more...it is now La Ceiba, catering both Honduran and Mexican cuisine. Sazon Catracho was intended to be our first experience with comida hondureña...La Ceiba it was. This review is really intended more to put this place out there and say "hey, La Ceiba exists!" than to actually review it, especially considering we had never tried Honduran food before and this is presumably a new restaurant. So please give them a try even though this is only a 3 star review! I had noticed from looking at other Honduran places that baleadas were a common food, so I chose to order the most simple variety, which they called the baleada cencillos. It had beans and cheese...from that point on I don't know what was in it. I thought it was sour cream before I started eating it but I'm pretty sure it was some sort of cheese sauce. It was pretty good, but I'm not entirely sure if it was actually intended to be eaten by hand or not...our waitress didn't give us any silverware and she delivered the dishes as they were ready instead of all at once so who knows! It was kind of awkward to eat, but I enjoyed it...the tortilla (or tortilla-like-bread) of the baleada was very thick...thicker than a pupusa. My mom had another variety of baleada, the megabaleada...and boy was it mega. It was huge. It had a mega assortment of ingredients as well: sausage, beef, beans, cheese, avocado...and probably some other stuff. The issue with it was that the beef (essentially the most abundant ingredient) was not good. Otherwise it was ok, but that kinda ruined it. My dad had some odd concoction on a plate that had ground beef, lettuce, various sauces and other ingredients I honestly couldn't name. Don't know what the dish was called either, sorry! (I uploaded a photo, however.) My dad thought it was ok. The beef was good in this dish. He also got tamarindo to drink, which was tasty. I really still don't know how to feel about this place...is this what all Honduran places are like? There were some things about it that shouted "we're new"...the warm, iceless water we were served, the too-loud mariachi music mingled with the occasional cut-in from Squidward and SpongeBob on the TV, the fact that the waitress hovered over us while we decided what to order and while we got out money to pay with (she was fine otherwise)...those elements were a little off-putting. But at the same time, the place also gave off some of the positive vibes of a great Latin American restaurant in the making: the signs plastered everywhere about their special soups and other dishes, the eclectic Honduran decor, the expansive menu...it was probably what I would define as a "hole in the wall." Give it a try! Like I said, I'm not entirely sure if we really ordered what we should have (didn't have enough time to pore over the menu ahead of time since we didn't know Sazon Catracho would be gone!), and in hindsight it probably wasn't a good idea to go to a restaurant with 0 reviews, 0 photos, and no menu...but hey, gotta take chances. And I think it worked out, just not like we were thinking it would. I wouldn't get the megabaleada. That's really my only major advice here.

It's just off Allisonville and 96th, with plenty of parking. We could tell right away that there was only one staff member working the register and the grill and the tables (apparently other staff had called off), so we knew there might be a little wait. He kept apologizing, but honestly it did not take that long to get our food. And the food is such a #yum! (Because of a Yelp item, I had a free Pabellon Arepa - it had a really good size portion of shredded beef, beans, cheese, and, my favorite, sweet plantains.) But outside of that, my husband was with me and we ordered more food: The Don Luis bowl (chicken fajita with rice & beans), and a side of fried yuca. We also got a side of tequenos - the delicious little fried cheese sticks wrapped in a thicker dough. Everything was tasty, and we have enough leftovers that I have lunch the next two days! #yum #ReviewsByRL

The Arepas are made to order and are stuffed with meat and cheese. Honestly a great value considering how much food they stuff in there. Tried out the passion fruit juice as well and I loved it, couldn't keep my kids from drinking all of it. Definitely recommend and I'll be bringing friends to try it out as well!

I arrived there at night and for a second they were closed because their restaurant name sign was not lit, but they did have the "open" sign lit so I went inside. They have very minimal decorations inside- no music, just a TV on really loud. But many times this type of places are a hit than a miss! (Based on my experience) I ordered a few pupusas and tacos to go and was told the food would be ready in 10 minutes- however it took 35 minutes. it's okay if they are busy but I think they could have just told me at one point it would take much longer than expected. There seemed to be just two people working there. There was someone who was waiting longer than I was. It was very cold inside which did not help when I was waiting for so long. I was disappointed with the wait time, however the pupusas were amazing. The hot sauce and slaw(?) that came with them were great too. I especially liked the one with chicken and cheese. In the future I will always call ahead of time to place an order rather than waiting there, and I advise everyone to do so.

TLDR: Love it. Visited today for breakfast with a friend, and it wasn't busy when I arrived, but was surprised at how many people arrived as we ate. It was a workday, and I thought there might be some breakfast meetings taking place, but the crowd trickled in a bit later as the morning lingered. Coffee options abound. As do smoothies and 'wellness shots' which aren't my thing but if you'd like a shot of healthy greens and a spice I've never heard of, enjoy! I had black coffee and it tasted better than most breakfast shots. They have a wide variety of lattes and other fancy custom options like the strawberry shortcake latte, etc. Ordered the breakfast burrito (sausage) and it was very good. I think I had the hangover burrito before (same thing but with gravy on top) and would opt for that one again next time. I had the strawberry banana pancakes at a prior visit as well, and remember them fondly. My dining companion had biscuits and gravy and said they were good. He is a man of few words. For dinner, they have a great menu that is 'latin flavors' as they say - everything from traditional Mexican food you'd find elsewhere to Argentinian options and more. They have great food. On a nice day, the patio is great other than the street traffic noise. This is a great option if you're wanting to get away from the other Mexican restaurants in town but still want something along those lines.

We tried their fresh guacamole, arroz paisa, maracuya (passion fruit limeade) drink, and I got two Cuban sandwiches for the next day! The arroz paisa is to die for. For $15 you get this huge serving of fried white rice with soy sauce, Colombian sausage, steak, chicken, chicharron (more like grilled/fried pork than cracklin), & corn. It so had plantains in it which was a nice treat. It's hearty and filling and they don't skimp on the meat. Honestly it should probably be enough for two meals, but I totally demolished the whole thing. Their guacamole was chunky (the good kind), fresh, and super flavorful. The maracuya was the perfect level of sweet and a little tangy to balance out the salty of the arroz paisa ... A perfect combo! The Cuban sandwiches were definitely overshadowed by the arroz paisa, but were still delicious and loaded with ham. It might not be my first choice for a Cubano in Indy, but still give it a try! They were unfortunately out of Peruvian ceviche the night we ordered, but it sounds exotic and tempting so we're definitely going to order it again because I'm super curious if "tigers milk" is actually legit tigers milk... Which is about to inspire a nice little Google rabbit hole. We'll definitely be back to order all the arroz paisa!

    GREAT PLACE FOR MEXICAN FOOD NEAR THE INDY AIRPORT…read more================================================= My son met my husband and I for dinner after we landed at the Indy Airport on Thursday, June 18, 2026. He is a native Californian and knows good Mexican food so we trusted him. They did not have the carnitas that I ordered so I ended up ordering fish tacos. They were really good. My son likes the place and has eaten there a couple of times. My husband was happy with the beef fajitas as well. The staff are friendly and the service is quick. You can watch the World Cup while dining as well.
