    Excellent Honduran food at a decent price. Nice little local spot for some chicken and other dishes. I went with the chicken with plantains, see photo. It was boneless, lots of dark meat, juicy, but not greasy. The plantains were sliced, a little firm and sauted. Really surprised about how good they were. Also came with a coleslaw like side and some pickled onions and jalapenos. I was in and out in about 30 minutes so it's good for lunch if your have the time.

    The beans and salsa with chips served when you walk in are perfect. I never like green sauce but this is exceptional. I love the cheese sprinkled on everything. The chicken tacos are more like taquitos. This is a lot of food!  They are very tasty with seasoning in the chicken. Loved the salad on the side and pickled onions, etc.. this is the second Honduran restaurant in Des Moines and I love them both!

    The food is unique for Des Moines and very authentic. We are able to find something for everyone in our family. The staff is friendly. It is family owned and operated. Even though we had the pollo before half of us could not resist getting it again. Everything we had was delicious The biggest problem is you get too much food!
