The table was clean. The food was fresh and very well seasoned. The potato ball and alcapurria were not greasy nor stale. Tasted very newly fried and was phenomenal. My son loved his chicharron. Service was fast not too friendly but not bad either just very new york style. I'd stop in here again to eat. No frills but good food and good prices.

To my surprised, I was very surprised with their hospitality and their food. The host, owner went around to see how is everything going. What is outstanding they gave us an order not what we requested and did acknowledge right away and replaced and let us have the order at no charge.This is how a business is run , so my hat goes off , I as a business owner. The food was delicious and their drinks were outstanding.Had the following: 1: DomiRiqueno Pastelon, 2: Pork Mofngo 3: Bangkok Calamari 4: Home made Churros. There were other dishes we had as well. The food was blended well and seasoned. I as well as my neighbors enjoyed their excellent cuisine. I like to thank the staff, especially ISAMAL, our waitress for her kindness, and professionalism in making sure we were satisfied with their service and food and special thanks goes out to the Owner Sandra for making sure her staff took care of us and we were satisfied. I definitely will come back again. I normally don't go to restaurants in The Bronx because their food and service are not up to my standards. I travel a lot and enjoy giving reviews on restaurants. I will definitely ask for the waitress ISAMAL , you will not be disappointed with her kindness and professionalism and a beautiful smile that makes anyone's day a better day.

We decided to sit inside because it was a bit hot outside and inside were several empty two seater tables. A large party of more than 15ppl were seated, a table of 3ppl, and several couples at other tables. The place is tastefully decorated with a beautiful 3D aesthetic pleasing wall mural of a woman's face. 2 bathrooms were neat and clean. Food was delicious, and presentation was awesome. We ordered their sampler that comes in a 3 tier serving tray: coconut shrimp, calamari, chicken and steak skewers, wings(the only thing that didn't seem fresh and did not taste like sweet Thai chili-and we eat sweet Thai chili a lot -that's how I know), mini bite size various meat/seafood empanadas with the outer dough having a normal red or black coloring. The 3 chimi sliders were very tasty and the guacamole and yaniqueque -flat dough that is deep fried and crispy. Services although excellent seemed very slow. It is not uncommon to find service slower when there are less people in the establishment because staff will go about setting up their station, cleaning without noticing that people are waiting for water, ready to order food or drink or asking for the check. I empathized with a woman who I noticed sat by herself, slightly annoyed to wait to place an order her great looking fish-she had to signal a server to come take her order--by this time there are still several empty tables. Overall, because the food was great, I will come back again.

That attention to detail was appreciated. The crowd was mature and respectful, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The music selection offered a nice variety and complemented the brunch experience well. Service: Our waiter was friendly and attentive. When I requested lemon and an additional brunch menu so my husband and I could each review the options, I learned that only one menu was provided for the table. Since I tend to take my time deciding what to order, having a second menu would have made the process much easier and more enjoyable for both of us. I asked for the menu and lemon he said he would come back and he NEVER did.. we had to ask for it twice . And at the time of ordering our meals it's then when they beamy us the lemons to squeeze into our glass of water. Food: I had the chicken and waffles . Nothing difficult to put together. However if you are going to state on your menu that it's chicharrón de pollo was bland no taste I had to ask for lime to give it some salty mess to it. My husband steak and eggs which came with rice. Steak was chewy he said it was ok nothing to brag. Over all I will give this place a 6 out of 10

All patrons look miserable upon entry as they had the doors open and no AC on during this humid, muggy day. We decided to stay despite the lack of engagement by the employees since our son was looking forward to a $17 milkshake. To make a long story short the service sucks, food severely over priced with small portions and the place was filthy. The staff drags their feet as their is gratuity automatically included on the bill so no need to actually work for it.

Instead, it was on the side of the highway and was a hidden cafe. It was small but they had the QR code is outside so that you can look at the menu. They have things like chicken wings, burgers, tenders, milkshakes. It almost reminded me of a Bronx version of Mom's Diner (if you have ever gone). It was indeed a bit pricey, for i spent $17 on a milkshake. I haven't tried the food but i can say that the milkshake (roughly 16oz) was delicious. I got myself the Crazy Fruity milkshake which tasted like fruity pebbles. They don't get a 4 stars because the milkshake pebbles were stale on the outside. I did like however the frosting layers inside the cup which made a nice taste and look to it. Will come here again to try the food. Till then if you looking for a fancy milkshake in the Bronx, looking to treat your kid for their hard work in school or a good grade... this is your place to go.
