Grumpy
Aroma Latin American Cocina is the best taco spot in America according to Food and Wine. I can also verify that this is a great place that you must try. Very close to Carlitos Burritos, Weiss Deli and Bakery, and Black Bear Diner. Centrally located, Aroma Latin is on Sunset and Green Valley Pkwy (2877 N Green Valley Pkwy, Henderson, NV 89014).
For example, this place brings a Latin fusion flavor. Starting with Appetizer, Tacos, Mains, and Sweets. Plus Drinks, Beer, and Margarita. They even have Mexican Coke in a bottle. The place is located in a isolated spot but well worth getting to. To demonstrate, the decor is Latin and new wave fusion. From the lighting and art work on the walls. Likewise, they even have a nice mural in the back. Be sure to check out the photos near the register. Furthermore, the service was excellent. He was super friendly and very helpful. Very happy atmosphere, I am definitely going back because of that alone.
For instance, they have variety of things to select from on the menu. Serving up appetizers like Mangonada Salad, Beef Empanadas, Chilito Relleno Tempura. They also have the best tacos too. Selections like Pork Belly, Carne Asada, and Fried Avocado. Mains consist of Beef Short Ribs and Tostada Flight. Finally, Sweets like Fresas con Crema.
Aroma Latin American Cocina food
The day we went we started off with Guacamole. Also the Enchiladas gochujang chicken tinga. That comes with salsa verde, queso, guac, and Korean pickles. Plus a side of kimchi rice. The Kimchi rice was something new that I have never tried before. The last thing was another Pork Belly Taco with the additon of a Chicken Tinga Taco. To that end, I already know I will be returning and will be expanding beyond just the tacos. I highly recommend this this place.
We also had tacos. I ordered one of each. The award wining Pork Belly Taco. This was very good and I understand why it won. In addition, Carne Asada Taco was great too. The presentation was very nice. Cook was spot on and it was very tender. Lastly, the Fried Avocado. This was great also. The Avocado on its one was really good. With the addition of the beans and other things brought it together, it tasted good.
I am noticing that the place is getting busier and busier. The word is getting out.
Camarones
Most importantly, I keep coming back to try all of the various dishes. First off, I find myself having to order the Fried Avocado taco all the time. Without a doubt, I just love have it tastes. You get it fresh and hot out of the fryer. In addition of the refired beans, pico red cabbage. To that end, that red cabbage is perfect combination. I love it. I will have to order another one.
In addition to the taco, I ordered the Camarones Al Ajillo. Of course, this was very good too. You get three huge shrimps with fideos (noodles). Even more, with all the other components ( chorizo, sofrito, asparagus, zucchin and red bell pepers ) made for a good dish.
Subsequently, I find myself returning to this cocina. The food is really good. This time around I started with the Fried Avocado taco. I just love it. It is full of flavor. In addition to the taco, I tried something new. The Mole Beef Short Rib. This was also very good. The mole with the esquites is a great combination. Not only does it look good, it tastes good too.
Once again, I returned. This time I tried the Tostada Flights. The roasted plantain with cabeza de monje with beans. Also, two chicken tinga with corn pico. In addition, my favorite in top left, the Fried Avocado taco. It is full of flavor.
In conclusion, Aroma Latin American Cocina is a great Latin food spot. In fact having been voted best taco in America according to Food and Wine. Have excellent food and service. I will visit this place for a long time to come. Lastly, more information on Aroma Latin site.
