Snagged the Red Snapper, plantains and rice and beans. Chimichurri sauce. A good ole Nicaraguan beer and their most expensive Nicaraguan rum. Everything was way above par. Going back soon

Everything we had was phenomenal! Canoa de madura with chicken, pollo con chimichurri, tostones, rice and beans. Generous portions, great hot sauce, and friendly service. Will go back.

I recently visited Fritanga, a Nicaraguan restaurant, and had a wonderful dining experience. I started with the chicken empanada, which was incredibly flavorful and had a perfectly crispy crust. The filling was well-seasoned and the portion was generous.
For my main course, I ordered the Bistec encebollado, a sirloin steak marinated in a delicious mojo criollo. The steak was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy, and the flavors from the garlic, herbs, and spices were mouthwatering. The steak was topped with slow-cooked caramelized onions, adding a touch of sweetness to each bite.
The entire meal was not only delicious but also very hearty. The portion sizes were generous, leaving me satisfied and content. The restaurant itself was clean, creating a pleasant and inviting atmosphere. The staff members were friendly and provided excellent service, making the dining experience even more enjoyable.
One aspect that stood out was the wait time, which was surprisingly short. I didn't have to wait long to be served, allowing me to enjoy my meal without any unnecessary delays.
Overall, my first visit to Fritanga was a delightful experience. The food was delicious, the place was clean, the staff was great, and the wait time was minimal. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to savor authentic Nicaraguan cuisine in a welcoming environment.

So glad we passed by this place on way through the city. Fantastic food that brought my wife back to our days traveling through Central America.

The food is so delicious and packed with flavor. The service is always on point and the food come out fast. We always get the flank steak, the fried sweet plantains and beans and rice.

Fast service, great fresh food with lots of flavor. They have some amazing authentic drinks and food. I wish I would have known my fish was going to come whole with the head on.... I typically do not like to eat whole fish but this did have good flavor.

Most authentic latin-american experience around. Just like being in Central America...without the flight. Food is so good. If you go to Cherokee street for authentic Mexican...add this into your rotation. You might find its your favorite! Nicaraguan is NOT Mexican but you will find some familiar dishes and spices.
