Very tasty. Enjoyed the coconut rice and sweet plantains. Fair price for stress/fear free eating!

My wife and I shared two meals - the chicken and rice and plantain, and the shredded beef dinner. They were amazing! Best meal I've had in Portland so far! And the flan for dessert was great too!

Amazing food!!! Amazing service!!! Great music! I am making this a place I will recommend and visit again!

Would have been 5 stars however the restaurant was chilli. This may have been due to being the first customers on a Sunday morning. Will modify review if this was the case!

Other than that, this is a MUST try!

My wife is gluten sensitive and we went here as soon as we arrived in Portland. I loved the chicken, the meat was juicy and just fell off the bone. We tried a variety of their gluten free dishes and they were all delicious. They have a dedicated gluten free menu with a wonderful staff

LOVE this place. Incredible food, very reasonable prices, very high quality service, extremely knowledgeable about gluten free and celiac safe options - everything in their restaurant is fair game, except for one desert item that is prepared and packaged off-site. I am the most sensitive celiac I know and I've never had a problem there.

I had the beans and rice. It was excellent. the staff was happy to put the egg that I can't eat on my husband's plate. They were also very happy to go over the menu with me so I could know which non breakfast items had eggs for the next time I come here, and I definitely will come here again!

I've been in twice and this place delivers delish dish all the way around. Caribbean fare never tasted so good. Fried cheese, empanadas, aripitas are awesome as apps. Beef tongue, bacon wrapped chicken skewers, corn meal balls stuffed with beef, lentil soup, flan...just to name a few. I need to go back three more times to try everything is like to. 97% of the menu is gluten free. I'm hooked

Great food! The tilapia was awesome and the Aji sauce was to die for. The corn meal is quite filling, so don't overload on those dishes. Can't wait to go back.

The food is naturally gluten free due to the nature of the Venezuelan/Colombian style. there is only one food menu item with gluten and it is a desert, which is clearly marked. Amazing food! Very friendly service. They also have vegan and vegetarian items clearly marked.
