This is a central-American restaurant, a nice change of pace from the typical Mexican fare that dominates the restaurant landscape in America.
The food? Artfully constructed...subtle and nuanced, beautiful flavors and textures. I've tried almost everything on the menu and I love all of it. This is one of my favorite places to eat in Cleveland, and that says a lot, as Cleveland has an amazing array of good restaurants to choose from. This place also has a variety of exciting and unusual drinks, both alcoholic and non, some of which can be difficult to find elsewhere.
La Tortilla Feliz is a must-visit for anyone who has not yet experienced this sort of cuisine, as well as for those who have and who want to see how it can be developed to its full potential. The atmosphere is quite pleasant, with a striking (and amusing) mural of Latin-American revolutionaries covering one of the inside walls. Ample parking is available in a large lot across the small side street next to the restaurant.
