| - Oh, I'm definitely a fan. Had to go for an appointment nearby (having driven 3 hours to Charlotte) and needed some good food close. This place was excellent. Yes, it's a little bit overwhelming (especially since I don't speak Spanish any, my bad) made even more by the fact that we arrived at right in the middle of lunch (and it's not a big place) but the manager and staff were very friendly, the customers were very nice to my wife, son and I, and- most importantly of all- the food was excellent. My wife was still raving about the pork belly that came with her meal after we left, and my patacones (something I had never tried before, almost a huge open-faced plantain taco with pork and vegetables on of it) quickly became a favorite dish of mine. The empanadas were good, the fruit drink was excellent, my son liked the rice... you get the idea. I know nothing about the Columbian or Hispanic community in Charlotte, so perhaps there are much better places, but my wife and I vowed (seriously, vowed) to go here again if we find ourselves hungry in Charlotte in the future.
