Took my parents here. Didn't know that this place was here 2 months. I gotta tell you. The portion sizes are phenomenal. Fresh cooked steaming meals. Prices a little higher than most places. But you are getting a lot for the price, though. The atmosphere of remind me of nicaragua. It's a family on business which I am always willing to support. Since they are just beginning, they hasn't things in kings to work out as regards their digital online menu.. But if there's something you're not familiar with You can always ask for clarification in their happy to explain it to you thoroughly. Overall, everything reminded me of when I was visiting my grandparents. I recommend this for families that need to share meals. You'll get great portion sizes.

The portions here are huge, so worth the drive out to San Pablo! The food was so tasty, seasoned well and freshly made. The thing I will say is they didn’t have everything on the menu but honestly it seems like you can’t go wrong here. Oh and thankfully we weren’t in a rush bc it took time to make the food. The staff were very nice and patient with all the questions I had haha. So thank you and I’ll be coming back!

Best meal I have had in a while. Such a fun vibe. Feels like you’re eating with family at a party. Had a beef mixed plate, chicken mixed plate and bunuelos (new fav dessert) I loved my Cacao and Maracuya drinks. I have a feeling everything is good here. Great portion sizes. Support local too, the staff was so king and were working extremely hard to please everyone all at once. Thank you for an amazing meal!

I recently visited Delicias Nicaraguense, a newly opened restaurant that caught my eye. Despite my forgetfulness with the dish's name, I found it to be delicious. I will say the portion size was slightly unbalanced ratio of main course to sides like rice, beans, and plantains. I would’ve liked to see more of the main dish on my plate. The tostones were a standout, surpassing my expectations. I suggest offering a half-and-half option for those torn between plantains and tostones. The agua Fresca I ordered was refreshingly sweet. Everything tasted fresh and made to order, and the lively music added to the ambiance. Despite the lack of prices on the menu, the staff promptly addressed the issue and assured they were working on new menus. While my bill exceeded $30, I found it a tad pricey, but the flavors, cleanliness, and ambiance were good. There were plenty of customers coming in and out of the restaurant, indicating a growing curiosity for Nicaraguan cuisine, and I hope Delicias Nicaraguense continues to thrive. Gracias, y buenas suerte en su negocio

This restaurant was a great discovery today as we were driving through San Pablo. I absolutely love Nicaraguan food and think it's something more people should get the opportunity to enjoy. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was clean, well kept and cozy. We bought several things and every one of them was delicious. We bought a Cerdo plate, a Carne Asada plate, Nacatamales and two different Agua Frescas. The plates all came with Gallo Pinto (traditional Nicaraguan Rice & Beans), Maduros (sweet fried plantains), Queso Frito (salty fried cheese), Ensalada de Repollo (shredded cabbage salad) and whichever meat you ordered. Everything and I mean everything was perfect and was 100% authentic. The Cerdo(grilled pork) and Carne Asada (grilled steak) were incredibly flavorful and cooked so this it had just the right amount of char on the outside, but still incredibly moist and juicy inside. The Nacatamales were also amazing. If you've never had a nacatamal, it's wrapped and steamed in a banana leaf, it has a maza outside similar to a Mexican tomale, only it 3 times larger and filled with rice, potato, pork, tomato and other amazing stuff. It's like if a Mexican tomale had a really big cousin with way more flavor. If you haven't had one, you gotta try it. Also, you can eat them as a breakfast, lunch or dinner and you'll be completely satisfied and full. For the Agua Frescas, we got Cacao and Tamarindo. Both with freshly made in the restaurant and absolutely delicious. The Agua Frescas were great, but out of everything they were perhaps a little pricier than I would have liked. I think everything else was well priced for what you received. I can't say enough good things about the food here and wholeheartedly recommend Delicias Nicaraguense.
