    We were looking forward to taste Cuban/Puerto Rican fare, but were so disappointed. Why? Well, first off, the server informed us that there was no chicken or pork. Then to top it off, when we ordered some lemonade, they ran out of that too! We were able to have it for one in our party. My sibling ordered ceviche, and at first, was told that it wasn't ready. We ended up waiting for it and it was tasty, very good. Thus, as our party was limited of what we could order, we end up having the empanadas, sans chicken or pork, tostones and the yucca fries. All these items were very delicious, just a bummer that we couldn't order what we really wanted to because of these items were not available. Also, the wait time was ridiculous for us to receive our order. If this restaurant gets their act together, then I would reconsider. I felt so bad for my party because of the let down.

    Restaurant CLOSED! Clearly forgot to let Open Table, as my reservation was accepted as well as confirmed.

    Great food! We will return. The staff is a little stretched, but that's just a post-covid world. It wasn't all that busy, just busy enough to slow things down. She was attentive and efficient in her job. The pozole is not to be missed! It's not just a soup.

    Had not been there for a while. Good was fair and I remember it being much better in the past. The Mofongo was good but the Vaca Frita was not as good as before.

    The food and drinks were good. Mofongo and empanadas were the winners. They seemed to be out of a lot of menu items, unfortunately. Was hoping to try their pozole. Really enjoyed the look of the place. Service could have been faster, but the food was fresh. When I'm in the mood for mofongo and empanadas, I'll return.

    We came for SF Restaurant Week, but were informed the prix fixe menu was no longer offered. I still got to order some of the items I wanted, but was just generally disappointed.
