Service was really good, and the waitress was very kind and helpful.

After spending a while eating at really cheap eats in Central America, I was looking for something similar in London, which is why I stumbled across this place and jumped at the chance to eat here...unfortunately the food really was poor quality. Starters were bland and the empanadas were tiny. I went for the mixed meat grill with some plantains (okay), and rice/salad. Unfortunately the chorizo sausage was the only semi-decent thing on it....but was more of a normal coarse pork sausage. The rib had no meat, the pork belly slice was hard, gristly and poor, and the beans were poor quality and bland.

Was really disappointed, and not worth
