If you want a great breakfast or lunch please go here! They have great food and excellent service. I highly recommend this place.
I just went in there tonight, and was so thankful that Richard, the owner, didn't rush me as I came through the door 20 minutes before they were going to close for the night. I was offered to dine in, and so I did peruse the menu and ordered the Grilled Salmon, as well as a smoothie with 4 fruits that I chose. The waitstaff and/or cooks were friendly and courteous, and I didn't mind waiting because I knew they were staying overtime. They went ahead with the to go order that was after me, but again, no worries there since I was dining in. The smoothie tasted so fresh, not too sweet. The salad that came on the fish plate was so fresh too. Portion of fish was adequate, with a scoop of seasoned rice. I had opted out of the chile sauce, and didn't mind the salmon dry. Will definitely come back to try the acai, as they had run out. Nice pricing as well, wish I lived closer!
First off let me say this is one of those little neighborhood gems you don't want to miss and even though they're finishing up with the remodel the place was not dirty at all. Richard the owner greeted us as soon as we walk through the door and is one of those guys that so friendly you feel like family by the time you leave. They have a huge menu from smoothies and breakfast all the way through lunch and dinner and even though it was lunchtime he was more than willing to make breakfast for us. We ordered the delicious salad which is a walnut and grape salad with honey mayonnaise dressing and it was both large and delicious. And I ordered the beef milanesa which was melt-in-your-mouth tender and also a large portion we will definitely be going back. Everything was Super Fresh, guac., salsa, everything!
They have another menu for drinks (smoothies, juices). They also have acai bowls :)
Portions are huge. I ordered a chicken sandwich but instead received a carb fortress. Sandwiches have three slices of bread and are pinned with a stick to hold all the meat and veggies together. I wasn't prepared for such height.
I was only able to eat half, so if you're there with someone else, one sandwich should be enough for two. I also bought the "hangover" juice, which comes with carrot, beats, celery, and parsley. The carrot flavor was lacking a bit, but again, the portion was big so whatever.
Atmosphere is nice. I've actually never been inside the Don Roberto strip mall until visiting this barr. Lots of parking!
