Mi Linda Managua Restaurant

"To be honest, I had a wonderful visit. The location was spotless, the service was excellent, and the tables were beautifully decorated with photographs of Nicaragua. Sincerely, I fell in love with everything on my dish after having the Salpicon. Every item on my friend's platter that I sampled had excellent flavor. Although I went on a slower day, I will definitely return and check them out again on the weekends because I know they have live music."

"I would like to say the service I received was good, about average from other places. The environment was good. There was music and Nicaraguan merchandise, which was nice to see. Now, in regards to the food, I ordered the Carne Asada with Gallopinto tajada and queso frito with Cacao to drink. The salad and carne had no flavor! The gallopinto was more like "congri," a cuban style rice and beans. On a different note, the tajada and queso frito were good. The Cacao was very good! All in all, I will not be coming back here again. I will have to make more drives to Miami until there is another better option closer."

"This was a bit of a drive for my cousin and I but we enjoyed the food. There was nothing left to take back( we ate it all). We were craving Hispanic food and all the places close by were closed but we decided to give this place a try. The ladies(servers) are so pleasant and even gave me samples of their mixed juices. I had the carne asada w gallo pinto, sweet plantains, fried cheese and shredded cabbage. I tried their arroz con pina and chicha( native juices)...both good but I preferred the arroz con pina. I wanted dessert but I barely walked out of there. I was so full and satisfied. Thank you."

"Ordered the carne asada with gallo pinto, tajadas, fried cheese, and ensalada de repollo for takeout the other day. Not sure if they give away their bad food to those who get takeout, but it was really disappointing. The tajadas were extremely thin and oily. The carne asada was overcooked, dried out. It seemed like it had been sitting out for a while. The gallo pinto lacked flavor and the rice:bean ratio was off. They also don't give you as much gallo pinto as you would get from a fritanga in Miami - and they charge more. It was about $16 for the meal and typically fritanga costs $12-$14. The ensalada de repollo also lacked flavor but felt like it was good quality. The only thing that was good was the fried cheese. The ladies working were very nice and welcoming, but the food is not good - at least for takeout. I'm sure dining in is probably better. Personally would not eat here again."

"Honestly had a great experience on my visit. Service was great and the place was clean with nice tables that have pictures plastered all over of Nicaragua. I had the Salpicon and honestly fell in love with everything on my plate. I picked at my friend's plate as well and all had great flavor. I went on a slower day but I know on weekends they have live music so will definitely come back and check them out again then."
