Location is a bit obscure, and parking can be difficult at times.
Order:
Garnachas - Seems like the shells are made in house, or at least use proper tortilla for the dish. The beef was a bit underwhelming as it lacked an appropriate amount of seasoning. The curtido/escabeche/slaw was excellent. Dish came out hot. I think with the appropriate amount of seasoning, this will be a knockout!
Chicharron con Yuca- The flavor profile was on point! Reminded me of trips back to visit my family. The disappointing part was texture and temperature on chicharron. Lacked the crispiness that makes this dish pop! Frankly, these do need to be par cooked as the process is very long. But hitting them with a final dunk in a deep fryer before serving will be perfect to add the texture and temp. Although I didn't get it, I highly recommend giving a squeeze of lime over the top as the acid is perfect to compliment the richness. The yucca is steamed or boiled, not fried like most are used to. But they do season with flavors that I, personally couldn't pick out. Still delicious, but may not be what you would expect.
All in all, I enjoyed it and will be back to see if the garnachas were just a bad day and also to sample more of the menu! Stay tuned for more reviews.
