Need to Know
Authentic Honduran Dishes: For starters, try the Honduran Nachos, made with fried green banana chips, cabbage, shredded chicken, pico de gallo, and pickled onions. People also love the baleadas, fresh handmade flour tortillas stuffed with refried beans, cheese, and cream (you can add eggs, avocado, or chorizo to make it even more filling).
Mexican Favorites: Enjoy popular crowd-pleasers such as fajitas and quesadillas, or try out specialty dishes such as the Marinera-Coco Seafood Soup, which features crab, shrimp, fish, carrot, and yucca in a seafood broth with coconut milk.
People also rave about the Molcajete, a sizzling Mexican specialty served in the hot stone bowl. As one Yelp reviewer wrote, “The molcajete for two was amazing. Shrimp, tender chicken, carne asada that was bursting with flavor and tender. Sausage that was spicy and sweet and green onions all hanging over the stone bowl that was steaming hot. Add to that a nicely seasoned fried jalapeño and tasty cactus. The cactus brought a tart flavor to the very spicy, rich sauce. I highly recommend it.”
And don’t skip the fajitas. As one reviewer wrote, “From the queso dip appetizer to my chicken fajitas it was excellent. My fajitas came out on a sizzling plate and the vegetables were nicely cooked, browned around the edges and caramelized.”
Signature Cocktails: Sip on a handcrafted mojito, Bloody Mary, or a tropical-inspired beverage that perfectly complement the cuisine. The margaritas come in many different flavors, including mango, strawberry, blackberry, peach, raspberry, or, if you’re feeling spicy, jalapeno. If you’d prefer to keep it simple, you can also order wine, beer, or soda.
The Vibe
Caribe Latin Cuisine has the charm of a small, mom-and-pop restaurant. You'll find the best of both worlds: an unfussy ambience with warm, polished service.
