We ordered the Trio of Guacamole and they were all fantastic. I ordered an Oaxaca Old Fashioned. The presentation was crazy. It smoked and bubbled. For dinner, my wife and I split an order of Tacos Al Pastor. Again they did a great presentation on this entree. This has to be the best Mexican food I have ever eaten.

3.5 Star rating I…read morelove the vibe at Guacamole, it's a huge restaurant in the NuLu neighborhood downtown. I would recommend making reservations! When we arrived we had a brief wait before we checked in, and were seated on the second level. Our server was excellent, our service was quick and he was always around without hovering. It was bitter cold outside so instead of my usual margarita ($14+) I opted for a beer ($6). We started with the salsa trio, one of my favorites with handmade assorted chips. It includes three salsas, somewhat spicy, sweet tomato and tomatillo - the spicy and sweet were my favorites. Next we ordered the tacos el carbon and carbon burrito - pricing is expensive! We both ordered our steaks medium rare. My tacos had a beautiful presentation, the meat came out on a skewer and smoking from the hot coals. All toppings were repeated on the plate. The steak was overcooked and tough though. Had a nice smoke to it, but very chewy. My husband enjoyed his burrito but wasn't the best he's ever had. They also had a mariachi band walk around but they had "tips" all over their instruments and clothes. Overall we had a nice meal but the price point doesn't equal the food quality.

News! Something new to the menu. Aguas refrescas ,we tied the watermelon and pineapple. Both were…read morefreshly made and delicious. Served in a huge beer mug. Another new item is a pork rib dish simmered in the most lucious and wonderfully flavored sauce. Just spicy enough and made with love. You'll be dipping tortillas to get every drop of this great sauce that has been simmering and just waiting to hit your taste buds. A special menu, I hope it gets incorporated into an everyday offering. Always great service.

For our meals we both ordered chicken fajitas (single). It was a huge order. They were amazing! The chicken was so flavorful. I had plenty to take home for another whole meal for leftovers. My friend and I could have split a double as she also had about 1/2 her meal to take as left overs. We both had to ask for more flour shells, which they charged $1 each for. I do wish they gave more shells as part of the original order. That said, we will definitely be back! Yum!

We went on Memorial Day hoping the crowd would be lessened (and it was!). We were greeted with a tasty warm salsa that might have some molé base. I ordered the enchiladas with green, red, and white (queso) sauces. The dish was deceptively huge as each enchilada was stuffed with chicken. When the meal comes, there are 4 additional sauces you can add to your food- all have some heat to them- and all are yummy!

If someone had told me a few years ago that one of the most culturally immersive, electrifying, and…read moreculinary-forward ethnic dining experiences in the United States would be found in Louisville, Kentucky, I might have been highly skeptical. But La Bodeguita De Mima (at 725 E Market St) completely shatters any preconceptions. Chefs Fernando and Yaniel Martinez have created more than just a restaurant; they have built a lasting highlight to Cuba that captivates from the moment you approach the building. The ambiance here is an absolute masterclass in restaurant design. The exterior--painted in eye-catching, vibrant tropical hues--hints at the escape inside. The moment you walk in, you are instantly transported back in time to 1950s Havana. The air is thick with the rich, intoxicating aromas of garlic, citrus, and roasting pork, underscored by the lively rhythms of classic salsa music. The Appetizers (Aperitivos): We kicked off the meal with the Papas Rellenas and Empanadas Cubanas. The papas--crispy, golden-breaded potato balls stuffed with a savory, deeply seasoned beef picadillo--were perfect. When paired with the house cilantro aioli, it's pure magic. The empanadas feature a remarkably flaky crust packed with perfectly spiced filling that sets a benchmark for what Latin street food can elevate to when handled by master chefs. The Main Course (Fuertes): For the entrees, the Lechón Asado is mandatory. As the undisputed king of Cuban pork, this dish features marinated, incredibly tender, slow-roasted pork that melts in your mouth, brightened by a sharp, garlicky mojo sauce. It is served alongside exceptional congris (black beans and rice cooked together) and sweet, caramelized maduros (fried plantains). We also tried the Ropa Vieja, a flawlessly executed Cuban classic of braised, shredded beef simmered in a rich tomato-wine sauce with sweet peppers and onions. The balance of acidity, savory depth, and melt-in-your-mouth texture was a triumph. The Drinks & Dessert: You cannot leave without ordering a cocktail. Their Mojito is easily the best in the city--crisp, perfectly muddled, and dangerously refreshing. To close out the night, we ordered the Habano de Chocolate, a stunningly creative dessert shaped exactly like a Cuban cigar, complete with an almond cake and Nutella core, served alongside a flawless, velvety Café Cubano (espresso shot). La Bodeguita De Mima honors the soul of Cuban home cooking while presenting it in a world-class, vibrant venue. For those searching for authentic, high-quality ethnic food, impeccable hospitality, and an unforgettable atmosphere in Louisville, look no further. Mima's house is open, and you absolutely need to visit. We will return; it is a must-stop.
