Visited a week or so ago found a home cooked breakfast, very good hot oatmeal drink large $5 in a cup. And tried their “3 golpes” without the meat. I had to sit down price was around $8 for the plate included mashed green young banana, a bit burnt fried cheese, fried hard eggs, with nicely pickled red onions. Overall good flavor. Ask for their home made green sauce which is mild and adds the touch to the meal. Red is very spicy.Need improvement: table needed some cleaning and restroom missing hand soap & paper. Staff was pleasant but not much English. Very loud music playing in background. - Food Rate
