OMG,THIS PLACE IS DA BOMB DIGGITY!!! I called to make reservations for a birthday celebration for my best friend's birthday and 3 children for 9 AM on a Tuesday but was told they open at 10 AM. (Their website says 6 AM?)
The gentleman I spoke to offered to open a hour early just for us and I gladly accepted the offer.
I also asked if a birthday cake could be prepared and was told that would be no problem.
When we arrived a large table with plenty of room for all 5 of us had been set up with a balloon tied to the back of each chair much to the delight of the children.
OK, let's get to the food...I ordered a soursop drink to start. This is difficult to describe other than to say that it is a sweet, creamy drink with a hint of flavor similar to coconut milk. It took a while to prepare but was worth the wait. My friend had coffee (no review).
We ordered the ducunu appetizer and received two of what looked like tamales with no wrapper nor any filling. Simply perfectly steamed and rather sweet masa. Excellent and a great start to a great meal.
I ordered the pigtail plate (yes, seriously) and my bff ordered the stewed chicken plate.
Each of the plates came with sides of stew beans, coconut rice, potato salad and two thin slices of fried plantain. I cannot review each and every item but they were all very delicious and there was plenty to share with 3 hungry kids.
Now onto the birthday cake. It was a yellow cake with chocolate icing, maraschino cherries,
several candles and a few other birthday accoutrements....just perfect!
BTW Elvira was our server.
Thank You Elvira and staff for fantastic birthday celebration.
Next time I'm having the oxtail (yes, seriously lol).
