So this has become one of my favorite places in DTSP. Some nights they have a live DJ and they…read morealways bring a vibe. The drinks are always amazing. Usually we catch our now favorite bartender Javon and he makes a mean Lemon Lychee! I also love that they have hookah here. It seems like there aren't many places in the area that have hookah and sometimes I don't feel like driving to Tampa for it. I STILL haven't had a chance to try the food yet, but I've had friends tell me all the time that the food is fire. I'll keep coming back for sure.

It's been a few times that we've eaten at La Mordida, a Clearwater- based Peruvian-Colombian…read morerestaurant ( US 19 & 66th street ) . We have not been disappointed ever. The ample space is welcoming and decorated with an Andean - Latino ambience paired with soft piped- music . There is a restaurant section from which you can see the kitchen to the side. A complete bar is strategically placed behind a slightly- raised stage where live music can be enjoyed while trying any of the interesting cocktails , beers Or spirits ! On the other side one can find the bakery- souvenir shop where they sell many Colombian & Peruvian cakes, pastries and candies - yes it's THAT big Now down to the main event: food portions are generous ( we always end up bringing home some boxes ) and everything I have tried so far is so delicious , from the array of tropical juices , appetizers to share ( or not !) , main entrees , sides and desserts . There is something for everyone or you can plan to split! I enjoy the sides of maduros and the tostones. Food and service are perfect - it's no wonder La Mordida is here to stay !! Bravo !!.

I wanted this to be my spot. It broke my heart instead…read more Let me start with the moment that told me everything. I handed a piece of the chicken to my Latino friend and said nothing, not what it was, not where it came from, no complaining to color his read. He chewed once, made a face, and said it was one of the worst things he's ever put in his mouth. I've also got Puerto Rican cousins, so I know what this food is supposed to taste like. Two of us, no coordination, same verdict: this wasn't it. Here's how I got there. This truck sits five minutes from my house, right on my drive to school and back. I'd been eyeing it for weeks, watching the ratings climb, telling myself I'd finally stop in. Today I did, genuinely rooting for it. They were down to their last two portions, one fried chicken, one fried pork, so I grabbed both with a side of arroz con habichuelas, took it home, and got ready to fall in love. I didn't make it past the second bite. The chicken pulled off something I didn't think was physically possible: watery and dry at the very same time. Slick and wet on the outside, stringy and parched the second you bit in, the whole thing tough and rubbery. And flavorless, not "needs a little salt" flavorless, but nothing at all. There was a thin sauce spooned over the top, but it just sat on the surface, so the first bite carried a hint of something and every bite after carried absolutely nothing. The fried pork didn't save the plate either, salty to the point of wincing and dry as a board. Even the rice and beans, the easiest layup on any Puerto Rican plate, landed flat. If you're still set on going, here's my honest advice: go early, right after they open, and order something you can watch them cook fresh. What I got tasted like it had been sitting a long time before it reached me, and timing might be the whole difference. But I can only review the plate I was handed, and the plate I was handed was, plainly, awful. I wanted to be a regular here so badly. I left unable to recommend it to a single person. Quería que este fuera mi sitio. En vez de eso me partió el corazón. Déjame empezar con el momento que me lo dijo todo. Le di un pedazo del pollo a mi pana latino sin decirle nada, ni qué era, ni de dónde venía, sin quejarme para no influenciarle. Masticó una vez, hizo una mueca, y dijo que era de las peores cosas que se ha echado a la boca. Y yo tengo primos boricuas, así que sé a lo que se supone que sepa esta comida. Dos de nosotros, sin ponernos de acuerdo, el mismo veredicto: esto no era. Así fue como llegué ahí. Este troca está a cinco minutos de mi casa, justo de camino a la escuela y de vuelta. Llevaba semanas echándole el ojo, viendo las reseñas subir, diciéndome que un día por fin me iba a parar. Hoy lo hice, echándoles porras de verdad. Les quedaban las últimas dos porciones, una de pollo frito y una de pernil frito, así que cogí las dos con un lado de arroz con habichuelas, me lo llevé a casa, y me preparé para enamorarme. No pasé del segundo bocado. El pollo logró algo que yo creía físicamente imposible: aguado y seco a la misma vez. Resbaloso y mojado por fuera, fibroso y reseco apenas le metías el diente, y todo duro y gomoso. Y sin sabor, no "le falta un chin de sal" sin sabor, sino nada de nada. Tenía una salsita echada por encima, pero se quedaba ahí en la superficie, así que el primer bocado cargaba un asomo de algo y todos los demás no cargaban absolutamente nada. El pernil frito tampoco salvó el plato, salado al punto de hacer muecas y seco como una tabla. Hasta el arroz con habichuelas, lo más fácil de cualquier plato boricua, cayó plano. Si aun así estás decidido a ir, este es mi consejo honesto: ve temprano, apenas abran, y pide algo que puedas ver que cocinan fresco. Lo que me tocó sabía a que llevaba rato parado antes de llegar a mí, y la hora podría ser toda la diferencia. Pero solo puedo reseñar el plato que me dieron, y el plato que me dieron estaba, sin rodeos, asqueroso. Quería ser cliente fijo aquí con tantas ganas. Me fui sin poder recomendárselo a una sola persona.
