Best Modern Latin American Restaurants in Alameda

I made a reservation for the tasting menu to enjoy with my husband and parents visiting from Korea. The food was as comforting as it was elevated, and the beverage pairings were all fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to treat their loved ones to a creative meal that is also approachable; we all had a wonderful time.

This place is all about the food. Ignore the menu, it's just there to provide familiar options. Talk to your server. They'll find something for you that will delight. The decor is standard diner decor, it isn't the point. The seating looks like something from the 1950s, but again, the seating isn't the point. The food is the point, and the food is delightful.

Wonderful spot with great vibes and staff! Always have a great time here.

The restaurant was a little hard to find, down a short passage way and up stairs to the restaurant. It was a little chilly inside, they ran out of red wine which was a little odd, and we were there fairly early so it was quiet. To start we had the Mandioca Frita (Yuca Fries) which were wonderful. Slightly crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, and the guava jam and aioli gave it an extra nice flavor; and we also had the Brazilian Cheese Bread Ball which were good. For dinner we had the Half Rotisserie Chicken with Turmeric Rice, carrots and okra which was very flavorful, I literally cleaned my plate. The other dish was Braised Short Ribs which were cooked to perfection. Very tender and flavorful. We would definitely return.
