One of the best from the dmv
Stephanie was the best always nice to me always make sure I was okay I was doing doordash and their machine went down she put the order through anyways for me for me to deliver food to the customer thank you so much Stephanie Friendly service great food
I was born in Honduras but adopted when I was less than a year old. I chatted with an Uber driver about my background and he instantly recommended this spot. I finally managed to get here this past weekend and I am so glad I did. We bought so many different things to try. It was my first time trying more authentic Honduran food. Everything was absolutely delicious. My Spanish speaking friend ordered everything for us. They were patient as we ordered our mountain of food. Very happy with everything!
Me personally I like they’re are straight to the point the food is really good doe one of the best Honduran spots in dmv
The baleadas are so delicious and you can eat them at any time
The food and service is excellent. I drive 35 minutes just to come here pass dozens of other places that sell similar food.
Food and service were excellent. The atmosphere is not for those who wish to have a quiet evening, but it's great for those who enjoy a vibrant environment in which to eat.
