I love eating here the food is amazing and always fresh. I live like 20 minutes away and I don't care I drive all the way there because it's so worth it. Besides the food the people are so polite and helpful. The tangerine juice with chia seeds is sooo good too. I always come here when I want some good Nicaraguan food.

They have a great set up inside, probably the best in southern Miami area as far as Fritangas. Food was fabulous. I went on an early Saturday morning. I’m very interested to see what it looks like with the stage occupied and the venue full

Excellent quality Fritanga (traditional Nicaraguan food). This is my go-to neighborhood place, when I just want some fresh 'home style ' cooking. Not a destination or to bring a date but wholesome tasty food at very good prices. Highly recommend it.

Delicious food! El chile was on point. Good portions. Great service! The waitress was friendly and fast. Didn't have to wait long for the food. A 12 min wait for two people. Music can be brought down a notch. I had to speak louder than normal. That's why it didn't get 5 stars.

I visited on 6/30/22 @6:36pm right before they close I believe. (I know super late review lol) but I wanted to be sure to leave them a review because the food was very delicious. I ordered a "carne asada completa" (Price $12.85+tx) & a "Queso-Frito" (Price $1.99). We sat down to eat in the restaurant, it is nicely decorated & clean. I will say the service lady wasn't so friendly, but wasn't rude either. I imagine it was because it was the end of the day & she was tired, so understandable. I would go back for the food was very good, the meat was done right although some was fatty. The rice was very good as well.

Food was ok and as we were eating, one of the workers came to where we were sitting and asked if we were done with our soup plates and took it to serve someone else with it. Not good. Felt rush. The lady that was serving us was on the phone most of the time.

I recently got take out from La Hormiga de Oro, and I must say, I was not impressed with their fritanga. In my opinion, there are better places to enjoy this type of cuisine. The flavors and overall experience fell short of my expectations.

The last two times I went they didn't have white rice, the french fries were really dry and the pork was dry as well. They don't have good customer service they talk to each other and people are waiting to be served.

The carnes asada was very nasty, the smell was bad. I was very disappointed n disgusting. I told the lady who service me n she like is wired. Im like it was very nasty. I love my Nicaraguan food. But this place is not the place to eat Nicaraguan food.

I stopped by to buy a 3 leches and a fried cheese. I was shown was looked like a dried cake. I was told it is a 3 leches with flan and it's a great seller for them. I bought it to give a try. Very disappointing. Not close to a 3 leches. The flan part did not taste like flan. And had what tasted like dulce de leche...which is not in the 3 leches recipe. The cheese, thin as a paper and chewing almost like gum. From my interaction with the man and female there, I am 100% sure they are not Nicaraguan. It seems the previous owners (nicaraguan) sold it. It only brings a bad reputation to Nicaraguan food. Just being honest. I don't recommend it.

The most disgusting Nicaraguan fritanga..most definitely don't recommend. The carne asada so salty, the plantains old, the chicken raw, I can continue...
