Antojitos Catrachos

DASHER REVIEW: I'm a little bit mixed about this review. The place is stashed away in a semi beat down shopping center with a bad parking lot full of potholes. So from the outside that gives off the impression at the place may be just as rundown. But that wasn't the case. Sure on the inside the place looks a little bit less than but the service was great, that people were nice, and the food was plentiful. I would definitely suggest giving this place to visit and judging it for yourself. The prices were very reasonable for the amount of food that you get. There isn't really too much seating area. I'd say about 20 people comfortably. But they shouldn't be a real problem anyway. Give them a try.

Buckle up, y’all. Long review coming of Antojitos Catrachos, a Honduran gem in the awesome burgh of East Charlotte, 6404 Albemarle Rd. East Side Pride! As a resident of East Charlotte for over 20 years, I’ve witnessed the explosion of amazing and under-the-radar food options. This is one of them. I had some business to conduct at the local ABC Store, and the family was hungry after a long, fun day at the Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia, SC. We had our sights set on our usual go-to place for flautas, but I spied Antojitos Catrachos in the same shopping center. I knew of its existence, but I hadn’t ever tried it. And, mistakenly believing it was Mexican, I was pleasantly surprised when I walked up to the door and saw that it was Honduran, a fairly common and overlooked food choice in East

This restaurant has a security ‘door man’ who stands guard by their locked entry door. I came here for lunch, but they wouldn’t let me in. There was a group of Hispanic men eating lunch inside, and this was clearly during their advertised business hours. I can only assume they didn’t let me in to eat because I was non-Hispanic. Another possibility is because they keep the door locked fearing an ICE raid. Either way, this is not acceptable for a public-facing restaurant business.

The Baleadas were just hand made and delicious. A bargain considering that size of the order.

Food is very delicious, the only thing I’m taking one star down is because the service was very slow, but if you have time to spend I definitely recommend to stop by and have the catracho’s plate, is a mix of flavor and the meat is so tasty.
