"I live nearby and often order from Boom for lunch. The lunch service is usually quick, and you don't have to wait in long lines. You often will see the owner and another chef in the kitchen taking your orders. Please be patient as their English can be hard to understand. However, they will try their best to ensure that your order is correct.With that said, how were their foods? Now, I have not tried everything on the menu. So far, I thought that the foods were excellent. Here are what I have ordered so far:Grilled steak taco: 4/5. It was excellent. The meat was well seasoned, and a hint of char added bitter and smoke flavors to the dish. You get the traditional onion, cilantro, and lime condiments with grilled green chili pepper. You also get a red and green sauce for tacos. The red sauce is fantastic, and the green sauce gives additional acidity to break up the fattiness.Al Pastor taco: 4/5. Similar to the grilled steak tacos in flavor profile, it was excellent. I prefer to use green sauce on this as it helps break up the fattiness of the dish and compliments the flavors. If the taco tortilla were hand-made and seasoned well, it would elevate all taco dishes to another level. All prerequisite flavors are there and need a push to differentiate themselves.Chicken burrito: 4/5. Excellent. The flavors of the chicken, rice, beans, pico de gallo, and sour cream complement each other. I made the mistake of leaving this out for too long before eating it, so the rice was a little soggy, but the flavors were still there.Price: It's a little high but comparable to other restaurants in the area.Although this is my opinion, I hope you give this little place a try for yourself."

The food was excellent. The couple running the restaurant were hospitable and warm. They also offered a dessert. Cash only. Highly recommend!!!

The restaurant is overpriced for what it offers. It is also misleadingly advertised as a Honduran restaurant, when it is actually a Mexican restaurant.

I don't know if it changed owners but I was not too impress of the flavor today. Usually I drive from North to get my food but I was a little disappointed View menu

I got the pork and chicken tamale and they were phenomenal! I am also a huge pupusas fan and these exceeded my expectations. Authentic tamales and pupusas are hard to find in the city. It is within walking distance from my apartment and I will be returning frequently :

Took my wife out for lunch for the first time since our baby was born. I perused the options and she said she wanted Honduran. This business has changed their name and are now only serving Mexican food. They had some ingredients on hand to make Honduran dishes for us but it was disappointing that they have not updated their info online. We would have found something else as my wife does not prefer Mexican. Quality was poor. Fried chicken was small and reheated. Portions were small and the food was absurdly overpriced. $18 for a tiny portion of pollo con tejadas. I would have happily paid $18 per entree in another restaurant, but this place was deserted and sad. These folks don't understand r...
