Hands down the best Latin food I’ve had to date. Everything was done perfectly; even the fritters which I don’t typically even like! I got the platter for 2, the rice pudding, and the tamarind juice. All of it was perfect, I have no suggestions for improvement. Even the coleslaw, which most places overlook, was perfect – fresh & flavorful. The rice & beans as well as all the meat were fresh & moist – I hate when it’s dried out & you can tell it’s been sitting there all day! The gentleman who works the booth is prompt & efficient – we watched him flying around getting everything done, and I really have to commend him on how consistently amazing the food is. This is one of the busiest food stalls in the food hall, and its 5* rating is well deserved!

No frills joint with authentic Central American food! This place is the BOMB. Don’t have to say much. Go check it out for ya selves . Anything on the menu is great, service is quick, prices are a little higher than expected , but it’s a hidden gem

Absolutely delicious! Everything was so well-seasoned! The sauce on the pollo ala plancha was very good, slightly spicy. The steak was juicy and had lots of flavor. AND the quesillo was reminiscent of quesillo I had as a child in Miami. 5/5 highly recommend! Nicas come out!

El Nica is inside the Hudson Valley Food Hall and took over the space where Himalayan dumplings used to be. We came here to try Nicaraguan food and overall really enjoyed it.

This is hands down one of the best places we’ve tried in Beacon. First time having Nicaraguan food and it definitely will not be the last!!! To say we were impressed is a gross understatement 10000000/10

The food was really good and fresh. I got the Carne asada with the purple slaw. Super tender and seasoned just right. The guy running the stall for the night was super sweet and gave really fast service for being the only one there.

Went there a Sunday afternoon with my husband. The closest Nicaraguan restaurant to NYC I’ve been able to find and I’m glad it was worth traveling to. We ordered carne asada and cacao drink. Both were delicious. We loved it so much we essentially inhaled our food. Definitely recommend.

Absolutely phenomenal. Really nice folks cooking the food, we had a friendly chat then I ordered the Carne Asada, which they told me was their signature dish BONUS yes I got a pic for y’all don’t worry. But you’ll need more than that to appreciate it fully. Go there. Get this. Or whatever they have. SO GOOD. Every single item on the dish tastes phenomenal. Very glad we found this little food hall. Shout out to Ciao Chow too.

Yesterday my family I went to this Nicaraguan restaurant to eat it sure was worth the driving of 1 hour and 15 mins. Great food love the Appetizer, and tacos.
