Description
Operating since 1986, this neighborhood fixture serves Asian-Latin fusion comfort food in a cozy, old-school space. The menu pairs dishes like General Tso's shrimp and langosta enchilada with dinner combos featuring tostones or maduros. While service is fast, some diners note the flavor can occasionally be mild; asking for their green sauce—available upon request—adds the missing kick.
Good to know
