text: Be sure to put this one on your must try list if you are a fan of authentic ethnic food nnMenu is extensive with chiefly Ecuadorian Peruvian and Colombian dishes Even the drink and dessert menu boasts authentic dishes you will not find just anywhere nnPortions were generous food was served hot and the presentation of the serving made me feel like I was away on a brief vacation nnOur server appeared to be the owner He was genuinely friendly as well as attentive nnWait time for the meal was under minutes which is what I would reasonably expect for a homestyle restaurant with good food made to order nnIf you are looking for an appetizer I recommend pork empanadas They are reminiscent of the meat pies you will find throughout many countries in Latin America nnMeats are well represented on the menu You will find beef chicken pork goat fish and shrimp dishes to suit most tastes Seasoning is just right and the homemade salsa was served on the side of my entree in a little ceramic cup which was tasty and spicy enough to satisfy my craving for heat nnThe tamales as well as the fish are steamed in a banana leaf typical of Central and South America The flavor the banana leaf lends to the steamed dish is uniquely different in case you are not familiar the banana leaf is not edible nnMost dishes are served with fried plantains which are out of this world nnDinner prices are reasonable and range from to per entree nnThe restaurant is very small and the decor is simple and native of the region of cuisine which adds to the true feel of the experience nnMy gut reaction is to keep returning and eventually try everything on the menu Our party had the same exact reaction as the previous reviewer as we walked out of the restaurant How does anybody stop at the Taco Bell across the parking lot
