    This place is a ray of sunshine, even more in the cold winter we can have here. First thing, the food is delicious. Second thing, the portions are perfect. Third thing, the staff (/owner?) is real nice. Fourth thing it's budget friendly at 13$ the main. I went there with a friend, I had the Arroz con pollo y guandule (rice with chicken and peas/beans) while my friend had the Bandera Dominicana ("Dominican Flag" or Rice with pork and peas/beans). And since it's the winter/we just live to eat we shared 2 enpenadas,a chicken one and a beef one. Both mains were really flavorful, and I felt right back in the tropics at lunch with my family eating homemade food. It's that good. Really. Spices were well balanced, beans were smooth without loosing their shape, meat wasn't dry and the empenadas. Oh the empenadas. The pastry is flaky and the stuffing pairs beautifully with their "spicy" sauce, which isn't that spicy but if you want something spicier, just ask the staff!

    Fantastic place for a meal! We ordered the empinada combo and coffee. The combo consisted of 2 empinadas and a avacado salad. The empinadas were very flavourful, the meat was well spiced and seasoned the pastry crust was flakey! The avacado salad was also good, a good balance of avacado and tomato on a bed of leafy vegetables in some olive oil. The coffee was a good coffee, nothing to write home about but no complaints either. The prices were fair. Service was good and courteous. Decor was nice the restaurant had a good paint scheme and nice art on the walls. Seating was a bit tight but the space was small. Overall highly recommend.

    Cozy place with some good options for lunch. Whoever is somewhat related to a Latin culture will feel a little at home in it.

    #SoulFood #Foodgasms The above hastags says it all. :) We visited this restaurant in August 2019 and just loved everything about it. The chicken echilladas were finger licking, the standard chicken plate was amazing, we tasted the best cooked chicken ever.. we concluded the meals with brownie which were again sould touching... it was experience for taste buds and senses.

    The restaurant is located at the heart of Quebec City, and it's one the cheapest in the area. The food was delicious, we took the chicken meal. I liked the idea they have a limited menu, it makes the restaurant very authentic. The design inside was very great, simple and not exaggerated and the owner was nice and friendly. The only reason I didn't give a five is that I thought the portion of rice and salad they give was less than enough and the soups were a bit overpriced. Overall, I definitely recommend it.

👍 We were there for lunch and there was no lineup. We ordered the croissant sandwiches and coffee, both are freshly made. Highly recommend. Staff are very helpful to suggest food from the menu.
