| - Wow, this was a really great find! We were looking for a moderately priced place for dinner that was something new, and this one came up. Everything we read is true! Great homey atmosphere; speedy, friendly and attentive staff; and of course, fantastic food! You know when you walk into a restaurant and at least half of those eating there are from the country of origin that it's GOT to be good. And La Bella Managua IS VERY GOOD!
We had eaten a large lunch at 3pm and got here at 8, so we weren't overly hungry and ordered the mixed seviche and the fish of the day - baked whole snapper - to share. The seviche had a perfect balance of acidity and heat, and went so well on the plantain chips with some of their homemade hot sauce (you have to try this!).
The snapper was beautifully cooked with a side of rice and a salsa-type vegetable medley which included avocado (lots of it - yum!), peppers, red onions, and a delicious lemon glaze (I dunno what you call it - a sauce, but not creamy). Needless to say, awesome!
We will be going back, and we will be trying the other amazing-looking dishes we saw everyone around us eating. We recommend this and we're sure you'll love it!
