I'd like to suggest wrapping each in a labeled parchment or something to prevent this from happening again. Try the yucca fries and another suggestion to the restaurant or those ordering this is to offer pink sauce for these fries :) (mayo catchup and small splash of vinegar)

The place is immaculate and the waiter at lunch was welcoming and attentive. I got the 1/4 Pollo lunch with a glass of Chicha Morada, a flavorful and refreshing cold drink of blue corn, pineapple, apple and a dash of cinnamon. The chicken was fresh and nicely cooked. I liked their steak-fries but would have preferred more traditional Yucca. The salad was great and the side sauce a nice addition. This place is great!

I have been wanting to try this restaurant since it opened. We finally went last night and it was…read moreawesome!! We went at 5pm on a Wednesday. There were a couple of other parties. When we left around 6:30, more than half of the tables were filled. I imagine it is quite busy on weekends. The drinks were fantastic, especially the blackberry margarita. It tasted like freshly pureed fruit. The sangria also tasted like there was blackberry juice in it. Delicious! We started with a trio of seafood ceviche. It had fish, shrimp, and octopus. It was fun to compare the subtle differences between the sauces. We ordered it spicy, and it had a lovely, warm spice that stayed with you, but didn't overpower. So fresh and yummy. For mains, we had the tacu tacu with cilantro beef and the seafood risotto. Neither dish was spicy, but both were so flavorful. The beef fell off the bone and was perfectly cooked. The cilantro sauce was great (I wanted more) and the rice and vegetable part had a great combination of fried crustiness and softness. The risotto had plenty of seafood and the sauce was almost like a thick seafood bisque. I loved it. For dessert, we had churros filled with dulce de leche. They tasted like a cinnamon roll but less doughy. I want to eat them every day. We can't wait to go back and try other dishes. Dinner, dessert, and 4 drinks were not cheap, but the meal and experience was so worth it!

For starters, I was impressed by the bright, cheerful decor. The painted furniture depicted charming village scenes of people, places and animals. There's a friendly hostess to greet guests by the door. Our server was nice and helpful, too. My friend ordered carne asada ( beef) tacos and I ordered chorizo (pork sausage) tacos. They are generous with portions. Our corn tortillas were stuffed with meat. Plenty of sauces, refried beans, chopped onions, cilantro and sliced limes came with each dish. The food was delicious and certainly authentic. I ordered a virgin pina colada since I was driving. It was wonderful. It tasted like dessert in a glass. I honestly don't know why this place didn't rate higher. Customers had nice things to say but were stingy when giving out stars. For my part, I think my Salsa Latina experience was worthy of 5 stars.

So I returned with my family of 4 after 10 years of not going. On a Saturday around 5 we found parking less than a block away and were seated immediately. The music and decor are exactly what you'd want in a Mexican restaurant. Love that they've added some Peruvian choices and birria items. We had a medium mango house margarita, guacamole, kids chicken tenders, kids beef enchilada and fries, combo 10 with beef tamale/enchilada/1other thing I forgot and the carnitas tacos with rice and beans. All so delicious and fresh! I did. It expect my carnitas tacos to be sooooo filled with meat so I was very impressed.

There was a consistent steady flow of customers, eating in and picking up orders to go. On this frigid day I think that is a testament to the quality of the establishment. The decor inside is delightful, they have potted plants hanging from the ceiling with vines sprawling out, growing along strategically placed lines across the ceiling. Several playful piñatas are strewn about. It was a quiet, calm atmosphere. Even with the grills and ovens clearly cranking the dining room was chilled. Handmade signs are everywhere most in Spanish, with some English translations underneath. Laminated menus are also available. We waited what I thought was an appropriate time for our food, the items were brought out at separate times. One item completely forgotten, so we took it to-go. Fine though we were stuffed with what we had. We had ordered one steak and one shrimp taco (3 of each came out) definitely a miscommunication but sour cream on the side was noted and came on the side. We also enjoyed chips with a spicy green salsa, along with a voluptuous chicken quesadilla.
