  • Yes, I would go back!

My family and I used to eat here occasionally as we lived not too far away. Not being Latino, we used to kind of guess our way around the menu but everything was always good. Our favorites were the pork chops, arroz con pollo, and the mofongo. Would definitely recommend!!

Some Hints:

  • The best reviews give a clear sense of why you liked or disliked a restaurant, bar, or store. And that means details. Mention specifics dishes, type of crowd, pros and cons...
  • If it's helpful to compare one place to another, go for it.
  • Come up with clever, funny, pithy subject lines, and write in the first person.
  • Don't forget to read the user rating guidelines and rules.
