This is the kind of place that I really want to like as it fits my style of casual eating. I was brought here by a Venezuelan friend, but, unfortunately I really didn't think the food was good. Perhaps I don't like the cuisine, but I really thought there were many flaws.
I had a dish that had a bit of everything, since that's what my friend recommended. The main protein was beef. It was sooooo overcooked. I understand that's how they traditionally cook it, but it really destroys a nice cut of meat. The portion was large, but it was mostly rice and beans. The whole thing was also really greasy. My wife was also unhappy about her meal.
Again, I wish I could say better things, but La Taguara was not for me.
