Excellent, authentic home style Honduran food. Ate the lunch special, homemade corn tortillas, beans rice and a ground beef /potato stew that made a nice filling for the tortillas. Great service, very nice lady.My friend had the fried chicken, generous portion and very tasty as well.Since it is very close to our office, made fresh, affordable ($6-$9 range meals) and tasty we'll be back. Fairly quick lunch although not many others were there today.Worth a try if you like hole-in-the wall authentic "Mom's in the kitchen" ethnic adventures in dining.

I scheduled a dinner for about a dozen friends, all former Peace Corps Volunteers, some of whom had lived or traveled in Honduras. (Please note....they do not accept reservations, but I stopped in to check the space available, then called the day before our event. They were most accommodating.)To begin...do not rely on your GPS to take you to the front door...and...be well prepared if you go at night. The restaurant is located in the Crescent Valley Shopping Center, a strip mall spread out behind buildings that line Murfreesboro Pike. Your GPS will probably indicate you have arrived somewhere on Murfreesboro...but don't be fooled, it's around the back of AutoZone, Walgreens, and King Buffet...across the parking lot from Family Dollar. There are no lighted signs to show the way...and it's a narrow entrance squeezed in between several other stores.The restaurant is owned by a family from Honduras. Grandma cooks at lunch and mama takes over for dinner while the males in the family, including son Chris, wait tables etc. By the way, Chris was super-nice and very helpful.Service for our large group, while polite, was a bit inconsistent; at times we had to ask for silverware or help decipher whose order was being delivered. Since they have a small kitchen (see the photos I posted) ALL HANDMADE food comes out one or two items at a time...and that doesn't mean all will be the ones you ordered. If you have a large group, relax and enjoy each others' company. ¡Tome una cerveza!The food: Here's a bright spot. The food is definitely traditional family recipe, personally prepared dishes. Not fast food, not restaurant food...family dinner kinds of dishes. Many of us ordered the Balladas...a thick, flour tortilla grilled, filled with beans, sour cream, Honduran cheese (Sencilla style). I had the Con Todo style filled with beans, cream, cheese, avocado and ground beef. It was great! This was the kind of food I remember from my travels in rural South America. (Take me back, country roads, paths and jungle trails!)I also enjoyed a portion of a Tajada, a full plate lined with fried green plantain chips, cabbage salad, ground beef and shredded cheese...another tasty bite.The Platano Maduro with Honduran Cream was fairly sweet but pretty oily. Everything seems to be served with Honduran cream!Prices are very reasonable.If you are looking for authentic, rustic, family-style cooking, everything handmade...give this place a try. The menu is not great, but adequate for a short trip to Centra America for a day.

First time there. The server was very friendly along with his mother cooking in the back. The vibe there was like being at home albeit Honduran. Food was fresh and tasty! Will be back again

Your typical hole-in-the-wall ethnic restaurant. This place is located in a strip mall at the corner of Thompson Lane and Murfreesboro Pike. Don't be scared off by the environs as the food here is quite good. Let me be clear in that the food here is Honduran and not Mexican. They are not going to bring you a basket of chips and salsa.I opted for the Thursday special which was stewed chicken,homemade corn tortillas, rice, and beans. The chicken was very tasty and the whole meal was only $5.50. There were several items on the menu that looked yummy- Honduran fried chicken, plantains, fried snapper.Definitely worth a return visit at lunch.

Super cheap, authentic, food with a nice, friendly wait staff. I went here while I was waiting to pick up a friend from the Airport. The only other way you can get food this authentic is to go to Hunduras yourself. I had the Tacos de Pollo as a meal. It was more than enough to fill me up.

I went there recently on a Thursday night - we arrived around 7.30pm and were the only guests in the restaurant. I don't know whether the food is authentic, as I haven't been to Honduras, but it is definitely very reasonably priced - with most entrees around $10.I ordered the "Fried Chicken Honduras style" and it came with a "salad' that looked like cole slaw with some mayo and ketchup on it. It tasted ok, but wasn't great. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, but I have certainly had a lot better food at comparable prices at other places in Nashville.

Its really so amazing to know that a simple chicken broth dish can taste so much alike in India, Middle east and central america. The food here is really simple and tastes I guess like Honduran home food ( i wouldn't really know because I have not eaten Honduran home food before). Cooked with maybe 2 or 3 easily available spices, you wonder how poorer societies of the world transform simple cheap ingredients into tasty delicious food. Now if the same dish was prepared maybe in some red wine, some organic hen instead of chicken and served in expensive cutlery, it becomes fine dining and yet it gets sold in mid towns of usa.Basically, I want to tell a lot of fine dining chefs who think they are creating innovative stuff to shut up. I ate better food for 8 bucks in a god forsaken strip mall right behind walgreens.

Way over priced for what you get . One and done will never go back . $18 for 1 pork chop and a measly side.
