Our menu includes some of the more traditional foods such as guisados, sopes, carne asada, chile rellenos, and tamales. Taste is never compromised.

The four of us had exceptional food. The portions are extremely large. My husband and I shared the pork chop dinner and felt satisfied with just having half the meal and adding either a soup or a salad. The dessert portions are also huge, definitely a share size dessert. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is kind of loud. This is not a cheap restaurant but very good food and you get what you paid for.

It was the same wonderful food, service, quality dining as the Lake Elmo Inn. We loved Corrie our server. She was engaging and fun. We hope more people find the treasure in the 1881 restaurant. It is a nice little find.
