One of my absolute favorite restaurants in Charlotte. I don't have time or space to talk about all the fabulous things I could say about Genaro's so I will focus on the best.
The fried plantains are incredible. The plantains are not the perfect shaped frozen ones you get at a restaurant supply store. They are hand cut and are at just the perfect level of ripeness. Not too overly sweet/ripe and not super green either.
Roasted chicken is my death-row meal anyways, so when I get slow-roasted succulent chicken and amazing traditional Peruvian sauces to go with them, I am in pure heaven. I wish I could tell you more about the sauces but as my waiter told me -- I would tell you, but then I'd have to kill you...
Last but not least do not leave without a slice of their tres leches cake. My mouth is literally watering as I write this. The "frosting" is sort of a marshmallow fluff consistency and the cake is super moist from the sweet milk it is soaked in.
Service is always friendly and best of all, it's cheap!! I hate that I have to go to work and might edit this review later, but for now I just need to post simply to get the amazingness out there in the Yelp world! Go Genaros
