Monica's Latin Cuisine - Newalla

This is a bar, but they also serve some food, including amazing Peruvian Ceviche. Yummy

Very fun and cosy bar!Great Atmosphere. Beautiful lighting.Came with my colleagues after work to celebrate my birthday here- and had the best time.The owner offered free shots for or company, when he heard it's My birthday?The bartenders did great job, everyone was happy.Thank you for your hospitality!

It was just okay. Our first time dining here and it was pretty empty. Even so it took a while to receive drinks and food (but I think that was just because it seemed there were only two people working the whole place? .Drinks and food were a little on the pricey side considering the location--I would expect these prices and portions at a restaurant closer to downtown; not bad, but not what I'd expect for a place nestled in a strip in nwokc.I got the paella, which was very good and full of shrimp and calamari that were perfectly cooked, BUT I had to de-shell 4 of my 6 shrimp after biting down on shell each time, which was very disappointing. They were out of brisket so we didn't get to try that, but the plantain appetizer was good, but for the price it was not a lot, nor shareable. The steak stir fry was nicely seasoned and had two sides that made the whole dish filling.The server/bartender was very pleasant towards us and other guests. All in all, it was just okay. Not sure if we'll come back given the prices and experience, but it was nice to try something different.

Wow! The empanadas are fresh, handmade, and an authentic recipe. You can just tell it’s a traditional recipe and quality ingredients. Perfect. Full bar and lots of Latin cuisine that looks delicious — we will need to come back and try more! Unique bar drinks and flavors. Plain American fare for less adventurous eaters is available but you owe it to yourself to try the good stuff! They won’t let you down.

Came on 5 de Mayo and had a great time. Awesome food and cocktails. Learned to dance salsa and had a great time. Highly recommended if you are looking for Peruvian Colombian food…
