Fritanga NicaPower

We were planning to go to Los Ranchos in Haileah but the place was closed permanently.My husband was craving for good gallo pinto and churrasco. Of course, I had to do the Yelp search.This place looked promising. I am so glad we decided to try this place.The lady inside the counter was super friendly and asked us if we tried Nicaraguan dishes. They just brought out fresh tray of churrasco. They looked so good.So, we both decided to have churrasco and Gallo pinto. The meat was tender and rice had just right seasoning. The lady even told us that they make their own chimichuri sauce fresh. Oh, the plate if this churrasco was only $14! You can't beat that!We definitely will go back!

I went to this place today for lunch because someone told me about it. I would say that it's a good option for lunchtime because the food is like a pre-service where you walk in and the food is right in front of you. I ordered the carne asada and it was good in terms of the food style. The queso frito was also good, but nothing different from what you can make at home. Of course, they ask for a tip when you pay, but I had to ask for the dressing and hot sauce because they didn't offer it (and they ask for a tip??? Miami style). Two big comments. My order was to eat at a table inside, but they gave me plastic silverware to cut the meat (horror) - better to say you have to eat with your fingers...Second big mistake - the bathroom is closed and it says "out of order". No chance to clean your hands to eat with your fingers because you can't eat carne asada with plastic silverware. I hope the owner reads this comment. Small changes make a big difference. This place has a lot of potential because there are a lot of working people around. I stayed inside for 30 minutes eating my lunch and I saw more than 20 people place orders and leave, and they ordered more than one dish each. Probably 30 orders in 30 minutes... But only me and another guy were eating inside????? Please use better plastic silverware or regular silverware and OPEN THE BATHROOM. This says a lot about the restaurant.

I hadn't been to a Fritanga in at least 10 years and boy did I miss it. The carne Asada from this place was sooo soft, wish the rise would've had a bit more flavor but everything was delish either way. My uncle got the Nacatamal which he said was good also, only thing I noticed is that it was on the smaller size.Other 2 things we got were the Tamarindo juice drink and the Cacao which was very very delicious.Can't wait to be back and try other items. Service was also great and everyone was super nice and the small sitting place inside was clean and well lit.

The meet is so delicious.. two large pieces. I got it with the rice and beans (pico de gallo), plantains, and fried cheese. it was supper delicious and huge portions. The place is small only a few tables..

10/10!!! I have ordered from here time and time again from individual plates to catered trays. I get the usual carne asada meal w/gallo pinto & queso frito, and they do not disappoint! I especially love the cheese, so soft and no rubbery sounds when you chew it, lol. Cannot forget about the customer service. They were always very courteous and helpful when placing my order. This is my go-to place for fritanga in North Miami.

I had driven by this place a few times & had been meaning to try it. I'm glad I did! This is a tiny hole in the wall eatery with ready preparedNicaraguan food, desserts & treats. We each ordered the same thing because it looked good - & it was. Ordered the carne asada (churrasco steak), Gallopinto (red beans & rice), plantains, fried cheese & salad. Everything was hot & fresh, plus I loved the sauces, picante, pico de gallo, chimichurri & a homeade sauce, all very good. I also took home a slice of bread pudding for $2.50, not pictured but I ate it when I got home, after warming it a bit in my double oven, and it came out gooey and delicious. This is a very small restaurant with 3 tiny tables. We got a table because we had a very late lunch but if you plan to eat inside, don't come during the busy times, it will be slammed. It was pretty busy while we were there but thankfully, I already had a table. I'm glad to have this lil spot close by & am looking forward to coming back, yum

It hit all three points the food good service get ambience and I got to eat steak the steak dish is $14 comes with two 6 oz steaks hungry plantains coleslaw and three types of sauces cannot beat that the flavors come by check it out

Was craving a good Nica lunch similar to the one I use to get in little Havana ...and this place did not disappoint!! Rice, beans, plantains and your choice of protein (all looks great pork, beef stew , ropa vieja etc) but I was craving the steak and it was juicy and didn't need anything (although they suggested the chimichurri and that did make it even better)..they also serve it with a piece of square fried cheese that I didn't know I needed ...so good !I will 100% recommend this place to friends and family in the area...prices are reasonable and the quality is high, in addition the restaurant is very clean and new ...this lunch qualifies them as a hidden gem Ps: the chicharrón was also really really well done and good!!

Right on Biscayne and 125th this flavored packed Fritanga offers your typical Nica food and I must say it's THE best Nica food I've had. The restaurant is small with just a few tables but the service is amazing! For $20 I got the typical Nica dish- Carne Asada which comes with Gallo pinto, sweet plantains, queso frito and the little bag of Repollo. They of course offer other food like their typical soup, chicken and also stuffed, tamales, and so much more! Definitely a must when I'm in the area and this type of food was much needed here!

Found this spot after shopping in the area. Had the ropa vieja plate - enough for two people. Juicy meat with white rice and maduros. It hit the spot. Drinks are extra sweet so opted for water instead. Parking is available in the strip mall. Bathroom requires a code and is for patrons only.
