    Parking is on the street in front of the restaurant, usually easy to find. The service is not the friendliest but also not rude. There's not usually too many people but it does take a while to get your food. As far as the food goes, they do have authentic Honduran dishes like pastelitos, plátanos maduros, baleadas, & casamiento. They also use Central American cheese and sour cream which is delicious! We usually go here for breakfast & their food is always freshly made and consistent. Definitely a small hole in the wall that I recommend if you're wanting some Central American food!

    EL KATRACHO On of the few Honduras Restaurants in the valley. It's has an overall "Family Restaurant " Environment , Classic Traditional Plates & Great Home cooking feel. In the previous years they had a stage where Music Dj s and bands would perform or they would host Karaoke Nights. The food flavors are definitely Authentic , they serve various Items that are original and exclusively from Honduras. TROPICAL - BANANA SODA HONDURAS Popular BEERS - PORT ROYAL & SALVA VIDAS. I took my GF to experience the Katracho Foodie scene. She already loves my home cooking but this restaurant serves what I like to call "UNIFORM" plates and servings. Allways dependable & just as expected ! Delicious & Freshly made. We ordered A traditional breakfast plate for her Desayuno con Carne (Steak Breakfast) Traditional Breakfast - Over medium Eggs , Blended refried beans , fried plantains , sour cream, avocado queso fresco (fresh cheese). And for myself I ordered A pollo con papas plate. (Fried chicken Breast ) with fried plantains topped with a unique delicious chicken dressing, served with a side of coleslaw with its own dressing. We shared a Classic Tradional Baleada. Baleada - Handmade Flour Tortilla covered with Blended beans , scrambled eggs and Avocado. Topped with sour cream and Cotija cheese . Can't ever go wrong with a BALEADA FOR BREAKFAST LUNCH OR DINNER. 2 beers (Port Royal /SalvaVidas) & a tropical banana soda to go. As far as service goes , everything did delay more than usual . We went during the weekend and it was pretty bussy with bigger parties.Hosting bigger family groups. Maybe more servers would help orders get pushed out faster. But over all the food was freshly made and worth the wait.

    We just moved to the neighborhood and we noticed they play soccer games on the TVs so my husband and I decided to go check out the US game and have some baleadas. The tortillas were sooooo soft and delicious, I only wish I had more space in my stomach to eat another. The service was great but you have to remember they make the dishes fresh for us and that takes time, we also went in during a busy time and there was only one server so you just have to be patient but while we waited we snacked on some yummy chips with frijoles sauce, so simple yet so good!!! Love you, Katracho!

    I needed a quick bite before an appt. Just walked in and ordered some diner. Was tasty and the chips came with some kind of Sauce which was nice. The server provided great customer service as I was the only one in the restaurant! The space was clean and nice
