"This was some of the worst Latin food I have had in Raleigh. I ordered the empanada platter, which is 2 empanadas and 2 sides. I chose the beef empanadas, fried yuca and salad. The empanadas were huge and mostly empty. They look big, but they are full of hot air. The taste of the meat wasn 't bad, but i there was barely anything there. Even the salad was one big lump of dried-up lettuce with 2 tomatoes and 2 slices of onions and zero dressing. The fried yuca was the most disappointing part. They were fried in oil that was already overused because there was no resemblance to yuca; they looked, and tasted like fried batter and literally crumpled in my fingers. When I mentioned it to the counter girl, she said, I 'm sorry, I guess that 's why they are cleaning the fryers right now. I am never ever going here again, and I am sure they will be fine without me, but do yourself a favor. If you are a real critic of Latin food and have good examples to compare against, don 't go here either. I am saving you the cash and disappointment.It 's been hard finding latin restaurants here that have that authentic taste like the ones in NY or NJ. I have tried Red Monkey (fake Colombian food), Tropical Chicken in Wake Forest before it closed (5 out of 10 rating), Hartura in Wake Forest (The Mangu does not have the Dominican taste), and Alpaca (Cant make Lomo or Tallarines to save their lives)."
