We visited for lunch . The staff was very nice and atmosphere was great. I ordered the Pineapple Melted. The Presentation and flavor were amazing. My husband got the lunch special, which he enjoyed really well. I highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner you will not be disappointed

First time in and it smelled amazing. The little spot in downtown catawba was busy on sunday at lunch. We had the chorizo queso to start and ive never had it with tomato chucks. Very good. My meal was a combination of Pollo Loco but I added chorizo. Everything was cooked perfectly. Too often, the chicken is dry, but not here. I ordered the flan, and was not happy with that. The bottom was burnt and it was laid on a drizzle of chocolate instead of caramel (or whatever that normally is). It was priced ok, and four of us ate for under $100 with an appetizer and 2 desserts. My wife and I will be back.

We went Friday night about closer to 6pm, waited about 30 minutes to be seated. The menus are very easy to read with beautiful coloring. The selection on the menu is the perfect amount. Pedro, our server was very attentive and the beer and soda was never empty. The place was packed from the time we walked in until we walked out, but we felt we were taken care of very well. For this place to only be open for a week, I would give 10 stars. If you try this place within the first month, give them a chance to take care of you, and have an ounce of patience. It is worth it.

The waitress was awesome asked us our drink order before I even sat down The food was amazing I had the carnitas enchiladas with Ava fresh cheese added They were amazing They have Pepsi zero so that too is a plus plus I had the friend cheesecake and it was amazing I would suggest nixing the chocolate drizzle because it doesn’t go well with the cheesecake or your flan (the flan was burnt on the bottom and you can tell it was mixed too much because of all the air pockets in the texture) We waited about 30 minutes for our food to be brought out and though I didn’t mind the wait because we had good company others might not be appreciative of that wait

We enjoyed our dinner tonight. Everything was great, food, atmosphere, and service. We had cheese dip, the Arroz Puebla and the 3 Catrines Special. Can't wait to go back and try more of the dishes!
