La Leonesa Fritanga

Popped in for a quick lunch during the day. The appearance of a local market, however, the food options and portions inside are massive. Enjoyed the flavor of the chicken and rice. It was too much for one person to eat. And that's a good thing.

Always several choices of fresh nicaraguan dishes. Carne asada, salpicón, naca tamales, quesillos, and much more!

Although not the best neighborhood, the food easily makes up for it. If all Nicaraguan food is this delicious, I will need to visit that country. The beef ribs were massive and perfectly charred Mango line BBQ sauce was pretty unforgettable. The meat my have been a touch on the over done side, but this is a $$$$ taste with a $ price tag. Would definitely go again.

Food is good. Very limited seating. Just like 6 chairs. Mostly take out. Only real complain is you cant have the green plantain chips as any of your two sides that come with most dishes. You have to buy the extra side order. Lots of other places around let you have it included as a side dish.

Stepping into La Leonesa Fritanga felt like discovering a true culinary gem, a little piece of Nicaragua right here. I was immediately struck by the authentic, local market vibe, and while seating is limited to just a few chairs, it adds to the cozy, bustling charm of a place focused entirely on incredible food. I popped in for a quick lunch, and the experience was truly wonderful, offering a genuine taste of the culture. The staff were incredibly friendly and respectful, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. It's clear they pride themselves on their service, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. And the food? Absolutely fantastic! I opted for the chicken and rice, and the flavors were rich, deeply authentic, and wonderfully satisfying, truly bringing me back to the vibrant tastes of Nicaragua. The food options are massive, and the portions were incredibly generous – definitely more than enough for one person, which is always a good thing and ensures great value! While it's primarily a takeout spot, the sheer quality and deliciousness of the food make it worth every visit. This isn't a fancy sit-down restaurant, but for an authentic, hearty, and truly delicious meal with genuinely friendly service, La Leonesa Fritanga absolutely rocks. I highly recommend it for anyone craving a taste of real Nicaraguan cuisine and a respectful, welcoming environment.

This place rocks. The little restaurant is owned by a Nicaraguan. I like the service, the staff is respectful and friendly, Food is wonderful. It brings me back to my loved Nicaragua. I highly recommend to come here. They never shout at you like it's common here in the little Havana culture. I have gone to other places where people are in the front line of service but they are rude
