Delicious and great service. Wonderful dinner date with my SO. She started with a sweet and tart mule mocktail garnished with a fresh flower. We shared a mountain of veggie nachos topped with a healthy serving of guac to start. She loved her chicken quesadilla with a side house salad that was "better than any other house salad she's ever had". I savored every bite of the short rib tacos. Great friendly service. Love the tropical atmosphere. Bar area looks cool.

We went in Sunday for a dinner. Made a reservation but place was pretty empty. Decor is very tropical and inviting. It started slow. We were sat down at our table but no one came for good 10-15 min. Hence 4 stars. We called a first waiter we saw and ask if he can help us and he did, even though it wasn't his section. David took a great care of us from that moment on. He was attentive, friendly and made some great suggestions. I loved my lychee We had Garlic Shrimp and Chichatron Platter for appetizer. For main dish we went with Steak Lomo Saltado, Aji Panca NY Strip, Seco de Res and Seafood Macho. Steak on both dishes was tender, seafood was fresh and the beef on Seco de Res was more like a short rib served on a cloud of cheddar mash. For desert we shared Tres Leches . All the dishes delivered explosion of flavors with eye catching plating. Definitely recommend

So happy to find a great local spot that provides a wonderful dining experience. Mia, our waitress, was fantastic and gave awesome recommendations including trying the Lychee, Me Baby and La Chefa and portion size for the steak quesadilla. Mia was very attentive and friendly which was refreshing. The garlic shrimp and fresh tostones, omg so delicious. Ceviche was so fresh and flavorful, just wish the fish was cut in smaller pieces. Steak quesadillas included quality meat and had a lovely cheese pull. Awesome that quesadillas came with guac and chips; certainly filling.

Went to Pachamama and with no real expectation, we were happy with our overall service and food! We got there for Happy Hour but would recommend they have menu or something to share with customers to view all the options they have to offer. Sat at the bar and they were all very attentive. Our food was Cuban sandwich, steak and shrimp tacos and all were delicious! The side of rice and beans do come separate and are small for $5 each, but were good. The overall vibe was great as it was fantastic old school salsa music and I was dancing in my seat! Worth a check out!

For a classic meal done right, this place serves up some of the best comfort food around. The meatloaf was flavorful and hearty, and the side of green beans was perfectly seasoned. The charming, welcoming atmosphere added to the experience, making it feel like home. After a day of sightseeing, this was the perfect spot to enjoy a filling and satisfying meal.

I came here on a Saturday night without a reservation and there was plenty of seating. The restaurant is located in a strip mall and there is plenty of parking. We shared the chicharron platter, it was very good. I wish that it came with more tostones for the amount of guacamole that it was served with. I had the lomo saltado for my entree. The portion was generous and the meal was well made. I really enjoyed my margarita, the drinks were well made. The service was a little slow aside from that we had a good experience.

Place is located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. We had a reservation so we were seated right away. Place is decorated really nice with beautiful wall painting and elegant light fixtures. We started with a couple of drinks, very good but very pricey. We had the chicken nachos and pork belly guacamole both were so GOOD and great portions. If you come here you have to get the nachos you will thank me later. All our entrees were awesome, I had the Jalea it was the special of the day. We ended our meal with Tres Leche cake and espresso martinis. By the way there was a DJ (Saturday night) and some tables and chairs were taking out and converted into a dance floor. Pretty cool vibe, will definitely be back!

Came on a weeknight without a reservation and there was plenty of seating. Service was friendly. They decorated the restaurant nicely. Plenty of parking in the front off route 22. 1. Wings - The best dish of the night. Full of flavor and I would get this solo for dinner if I come again. 2. Corn - Good amount of seasoning and delicious as well. 3. Shrimp tacos - Large tacos and a bit juicy saucy but full of flavor. Overall, a good place to try at least once for delicious food and a hip atmosphere.
