Que rico! The chorizo taco was amazing and the shrimp in the shrimp taco was cooked perfectly. The carne asada has a flavor that you just can’t get at other restaurants. The Cacao drink is sweet and delicious. This is a must stop.

Cool little spot for the Nicaraguan inspired food joint. Saw the picture of the whole fried fish and I had to try it my self, didn’t realize it came with rice and fries. $35 is little pricy for a whole fish, but enjoyed it whole anyways. Great place, friendly staff and the waiter was nice with kids.

I was looking for a Spanish food restaurant and I came across jose Latin food but unfortunately it was a horrible experian with the service, food and definitely the price, the Menu didn’t had no price so to me was kind of sratchy but the receipe did had a service charge and on top of that it said if I wanted to leave a tip. It came out to be a bad experience I had to move from the table because there was a bad smell coming from the restroom. I have a really nice message for the owner.. FIX THE RESTROOM at least since you don’t want to fix the interior of the restaurant. There’s the receipe of how much you charge for fries,eggs and a toast.

Definitely authentic. Everything was tasty. Large portions to go along with the higher prices, but there was plenty for leftovers. They also have horchata too!

Food was good, but expect Nicaraguan food, not “Americanized” Mexican. Beef tacos are shredded beef, not ground beef and the shells are all soft tortillas. I ordered the Mahi-Mahi and it was delicious. Would have been five-stars but the menu doesn’t have prices and there was a misc charge (to use a card?) on the bill. Not pricey though.

Really great. We were the only tourists there, everyone else seemed like locals. Very authentic. I had the breakfast burrito and fried plantains. Yummy. My husband had tacos. Delicious. The only thing that could be improved is the overall decor. Some new paint and repairs could go a long way.
