This place honestly impressed me. I am not a huge Spanish food person so I was hesitant to go, however my aunt wanted to celebrate her birthday here so I gave it a chance. We started with empanadas (delicious), burrata, and salsa. The salsa doesn’t feel homemade/fresh but was still enjoyable. However the dinner was outstanding. I ordered the Mar Y Tierra. I would definitely order this again, next time over noodles instead of rice. It was very tasty. Service was great too.

What a terrific experience! Full disclosure: I thought this was another place when I went in, though this ended up being way better than where I thought I was going (Sabor Latino). First off, all the staff you pass on the way to your table greet you and service remained amongst the best I’ve had in Florida. Now to the food. I live in Miami and am sort of a Latin/Caribbean food expert so when I saw a “fusion” menu with basically the “greatest hits” of Latin and Caribbean food, I figured they would make a passable version of each. I rarely like mixed-cuisine restaurants (Thai-Japanese places are big in Florida despite rice being perhaps the only shared dish!). BUT I was wrong! Mini mofongo balls with pork belly? Best mofongo I’ve ever had. Peruvian style ceviche? As good as high-end places in Miami for three times less. Mexican style ceviche? Incredible and loaded with seafood for the price. The star, however, was freshly made tostones covered with guacamole, pickled vegetables, and fried pork belly…..where has this dish been my whole life?!?! We also got a “bandeja paisa” which is basically half the menu on a tray. Everything was great except the beef but then again you don’t get a bandeja paisa for the beef. It’s like a bonus side dish. I didn’t love my mango caperinha sp? But honestly I bet they have other drinks that are great. Can’t believe one of my best Latin meals in Florida was in Ocala, and it’s actually better than many places here in Miami. They must source their pork from somewhere either local or special because the pork belly was soooo good. No gaminess and cooked to perfection. We had it three ways in three dishes so I can vouch for it! This will be a must-go for any Ocala trip for me.
Food came fast and was super delicious and the waiter nilda was very welcoming and made sure the table had enough space for u and fast and kind. Loved it here. High suggest
When I lived in Ocala this was one of my favorite places! The food is just as good as I remembered, and fresh! The service was amazing from the moment I walked in! There were several people waiting, but it only took 15 minutes for a table of 6! If you want delicious food, make the trip!! Our server Jaime was top notch and wonderful to talk to!
First time here. Food was delicious and Service from Nilda was top notch. She was friendly, knowledgeable and made great suggestions for food and drinks. The Saturday special, sancocho was sabroso. Highly recommend this restaurant. Ask for Nilda as your server.
Amazing food especially the seafood stew blew my mind away!!! Fried pork skin was also my fav and it came in generous portion for an appetizer. We also ordered a shrimp quesadilla which was also super delicious but it was already too much food for two (quite hungry) people. This restaurant is only 20min away from the silver springs and I’d recommend it to anyone who passes by the area!!
This is still a favorite locally owned gem of a restaurant! I recommend stearing away from the standard Mexican fare and try the specialties like Pescada (Grouper)A La Rusa, Chicken Marsala, Anything with Chimichurri sauce and the Tres Leche is top notch!
I was with my family and we had a great time. Delicious food. Friendly service from the moment you arrive... and a nice atmosphere. I highly recommend it.
