My family and I have been coming here for over 10 years. Wonderful food! We love Chef Waldo!
The food is fresh like home made. Chef Waldo has years of experience in the Latin kitchen. I know him for many years, he continues be one of my favorite chefs. His devotion, hard work, and perseverance has won him many recognitions through the Latin and American community. He loves to come out of the kitchen to dinner room to interact with the customers, to make them feel at home. Chef Waldo is also an amazing person, he finds time to give back to the community, his second passion. KUDOS to my friend, Chef Waldo.

This weekend, 11/9&20 Chef Waldo is featuring his Lomo Saltado! $15.99 including fruit infused tea!!
I not only enjoyed lovely food, delicious soup with the buffet lunch, but the owner and chef welcomes you home for a meal. It's an intimate space where diners actually talk with each other. At different tables. And were regulars. I'm from out of town. It was a traditional and delicious meal. More than hearty. Generous. I loved the marisco soup! Do enjoy this authentic fresh home style Cuban cuisine. Lol gracias.
Let me tell you! Before I even GET to the food!This man is the sweetest giving human. To top it off, he's a distinguished chef. He is apart of an awesome foundation supporting women and children, Make A Wish Foundation, and does so much in his community including free vendor events. I would have never thought to come in without a friend's recommendation when I asked for Peruvian food. It's in a run down shopping center. But when we walked in, we were welcomed with a smile, convo, and a great buffet. I had a taste for Saltado de Pollo and he made it to order. All tasted fresh and like some good ol home cooking! Tender, tasty, and the sauces were delicious. He treated us to the iced tea. It was just sweet enough and refreshing. We had plenty of food leftover. He treated us to a lot, but I don't want anyone to expect the same treatment, but I wouldn't be surprised. This place isn't for the non-hungry introvert, but for everyone else that love diamonds in the rough and really supporting local. The man has stories for days! We heard he may ask what you like and create some thing, but I just had to be firm with my saltado pollo. He got us to add a buffet and we didn't regret it. This is a solid restaurant for a home cooked meal the entire family will love. He'll take card, cash, cashapp, venmo and you'll most likely leave with more food than you planned. I JUST finished my last leg today and the rice with the delicious sauces yesterday and this is day 3 of leftovers. All I ask is that you tip him well and fairly. I'm posting a pic of his work at his foundation. Lmk if you go!!! And be prepared for a little chat :-)
Best ever tasting paella in San Antonio Texas, my friends and I were in awe as we enjoyed this wonderful meal!
