    I love this restaurant! It’s the best restaurant in Louisville! Every time the food is top notch, the service exceptional, and the ambience lively. I always get the lechon with congri and it does not disappoint. My partner had the ropa vieja and it was great. Our waiter Pedro was superb!

    The food was good, but it was a bit too salty. Good value for the quality of food, and service was expedient.

    Excellent food! Tamal was delicious and filling as a meal by itself. Wonderful flavors and excellent service. We've enjoyed our time here each time we've had the opportunity to go.
