"Don’t know about this place? Very poor on hygiene. Never come back Can’t give less than 1 star"
"My Chile relleno was missing the frijoles. The portion was small comparing what I paid. There’s no parking so we order to go."
"Well I ordered Chicken Pepian, which used to be very good. Guess what? It totally SUCKED. Hardly any flavor at all. Usually the sauce has a lot of "punch" to it, secret flavoring that the cooks use. Well, it didn't have it. It tasted like a little bit of pumpkin seed, maybe some flour, a little spice,some salt and the taste of the chicken itself. Meh. I asked for breast meat, and they gave me the boney back and a wing--almost all bone and skin! For vegetables there was only 1really limp green bean, 2 pieces of carrot, tiny bit of potato, hardly anything. From the cashier's unfriendly demeanor, I suspect she told the cook to make me a lousy dish on purpose. Also they purposely gave me the back and wing, when I asked for breast meat. Only the tortillas were good. And it was $15.00 at this really low-brow, nothing-fancy place. Waste of $$. They should make it more affordable for the local Guatemalans, who are usually low income. Won't be going back."
"Ordered chicken soup. Looked great but noticed no meat so, I tasted the broth it, was a bit on the salty side. Waited about 5 minutes longer then received the chicken separate from the main dish. Hand made corn tortillas which were delightful also ordered a drink named maracuya never heard of it but was tasty. For the price, I expected much better. The service was great, the facilities clean but, will not be visiting that establishment again."
"Was looking for a nutritious hot breakfast and this place was open early by 9 am. I stepped in and ordered a tasty cinnamon horchata and giant bowl of satisfying salty caldo mariscos including big hunks of fresh fish, mussels large head on prawns and a side of thick handmade tortillas, served with chips, a warm frijoles negra dip , pico de gallo and perfectly ripened aguacates."
