Description

The kitchen turns out generous portions of pollo a la brasa served with fried rice, seasoned bistec a lo pobre, and meat-filled wontons called taqueños. Seafood options include a cilantro-spiced ceviche with tostones and a flavorful camarón saltado served over crispy fries. You can pair your meal with an Inca Kola or a Tropical Blue mocktail. Out back, the internal patio serves as a relaxed space to unwind, though you will have to contend with the hum of a noisy air conditioning motor.
