margaritas tasted very limey and homemade. Yucca fries with the garlic sauce were very crunchy and flavorful. Both of our entrees were tasty as well. I love giving fledgling restaurants a go, this one is a hit!
Valarie has amazing customer service! I love the way she remembers me and service is always efficient. I love the food especially the soups. I really enjoy my experience coming to this 5 star restaurant. The manager always comes out to greet us. Valarie deserves a raise! I love the ambience and it is kid friendly. There is a lot of parking available even for wheelchair. Edgar the chef does and amazing job every time. The food is always fresh and authentic.
Ricarena in Margate. Been about six months since we’ve last dined here, and the food is as good as ever. They’ve redecorated by removing all the vestiges of the old diner, so it looks more open.Absolutely try “Ceviche de Chicharrones,” which is fried pork belly with onions and a spicy dipping sauce, the Lechon Asado, which is dripping with juice and garlic mojo, the Lomo Saltado (Peruvian Chinese steak), and the all-day breakfast items such as the tostones with bacon, eggs, and guacamole. It’s heavy-duty pan Latino stuff from Colombia, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Peru, and other places — Chef Jose knows how to cook it all. It’s not light cuisine, so you’d better come starving.Food prices are incredibly reasonable, and the portions are huge here. Happy hour is ALL DAY LONG with 2 for 1 Margaritas and Mojitos.
I was visiting this area for 5 days to attend a wedding. 2 of those days I ordered from this place thru doordash. The food was so good on doordash that before I left to head back to the airport, I decided to go in person to have my last finally meal before leaving FL. When I tell you I was in heaven, this food is amazing. I mean the pics speak for itself. The only reason we spent a lot of money is because we had a 3 course meal. When I went it was considered “brunch” hours. Aka a late breakfast.
Called to confirm order. Numerous mistakes made with order (missing items and poor quality) without resolution. Save your money.Update- i returned in person 2 additional time. My initial issues were simply the result of the language barrier. The food has been awesome and Edgar has been excellent.
I had high hopes for this place. Went on a Saturday night for dinner. They do karaoke on Saturdays. The music was so loud, you couldn't enjoy your food, I don't mean just loud, I mean ridiculously loud, I couldn't here my wife talking to me and she was sitting right next to me. The servers had to yell at the customer and the customers yelling back, it was insane. It was empty for a Saturday and I can guarantee thats why!!! Then we got our food and it was barely edible, no flavor, the aji tasted old and had no spiciness!!! We had to eat somewhere when we left here. I definitely won't go back to this place.
The food was amazing but the service was poor.
Not great. The waitress spoke little to no English and although I ordered for both myself and my husband in Spanish (he does not speak Spanish) she never wrote down his order. My dinner arrived & she handed him his side of french fries with no sandwich and quickly left. When I reminded her we were still waiting for his order she told me I never placed an order and only asked for a side which she thought was odd. Twenty five minutes after I received my meal he finally received his.His sandwich was good, my meal was good but we will never go back.
I ordered my dinner. The server asked me to confirm my order, which I did. My wife's entree was served along with my side dish. We spoke to a second employee who said my order was being worked on. The original server came back and confirmed that she thought I had ordered only the side dish. Between my wife and I we gave her the order 4 or 5 times. We won't be back.
All the food was awesome! The perfect hole in the wall.
