I've driven by this new location a few times, and my eye has been drawn to the colorful building. Today we decided to stop, not certain what to expect. We entered to find a bright and open space with menu selections served cafeteria style. For a reasonable price you select a generous portion of different types of rice, numerous meat selections (several options of pork, chicken or beef) and your choice of sides. Being our first visit, the server pleasantly walked us each through our choices and served a LOT of food into the Styrofoam serving containers. The two of us dined for about $35 plus tip, including a can of Coke each. My wife was impressed with her chicken in a white sauce. I thoroughly enjoyed my bone-in bbq pork ribs. We both had black beans in rice and cole slaw. The rice & beans were flavorful if a little dry. The slaw was tasty and better than average. The neat, however, was delicious! After eating our full (neither of us could clean our plates) we agreed that we would definitely choose this again. I very much recommend you stop in and give it a try!

Good place for weekly food. Service is quick and plenty to choose from. prices are reasonable and the food is seasoned well. Not a fancy place to eat but for quick latin food it's the place to go in Clermont FL
