"First ImpressionI searched for local restaurants nearby that make sancocho soup and decided to order with La Sorpresa since I had not tried it before.Within a few minutes of placing my order I received an email stating my order had been cancelled by the restaurant because they are “busier than usual.” I thought that was a good thing. Cancelling orders is certainly one way to ensure you’re not busy any longer.I would have appreciated at least a call from the restaurant to explain why the order was being cancelled or offer me another time to place an order. I ordered food from another restaurant currently taking orders.This was not a good first impression."

The pernil was extremely tough in all three orders and was not edible.

The restaurant was enjoyable, but the steak was tough and lacked flavor.

the order $22) was incomplete. just small container with beef. NO rice and beans which were suppose to be included, called the restaurant and was told no one was there to respond and he refused to give his name. View menu

Well never go again, I guess I have to be a regular to even have my order taken. I waited in line only to watch people come after me and have their order taken.Not to mention zero social distancing being enforced, as well as zero mask wearing being enforced. Staff didn't have on mask or gloves.

There is only one employee that speaks English as well as Spanish so I sat around for about 10 minutes just waiting to order. I did try with the Spanish speaking woman but it was clearly not working. The food was DELICIOUS!! I will definitely be learning the names of the dishes just to return to this eatery!

"I have ordered delivery twice from this place. Both times the food came well packed and without any spills. I also wasn't missing any items. The first time i ordered a shrimp egg roll, wonton egg drop soup, three regular roll special, general tso's chicken combo dinner and orange chicken combo dinner. The shrimp egg roll is absolutely delicious. I would order that over and over again. The wonton egg drop soup is not that great. I wouldn't order it again. The wonton's themselves are really thick. For the rolls i ordered the crunchy spicy kani roll, the spicy crunch shrimp and the shrimp tempura roll. All three were absolutely delicious and filling. Both the general tso's and orange chicken had great flavor but by the time it arrived, it wasn't crispy anymore. I tried to recrisp it in the toaster oven and that didn't work. The second time i ordered fried dumplings, the grasshopper roll, kai roll, shrimp tempura roll, sweetheart roll and stir fried udon with beef. The fried dumplings tasted exactly like the wonton's i had in my soup during my first order. The dumpling skin was too thick and the beef looked and tasted the exact same way as the wontons. I wasn't crazy about them. The grasshopper roll i would order every single time, it was lobster salad, crab meat, shrimp, mango, avocado, asparagus, lettuce wrap, rice paper with avocado and caviar in yuzu wasabi sauce. The lettuce did get a little wilted during transit but it didnt impact the flavor at all. Very delish. The kai roll has spicy tuna, avocado and shrimp tempura inside a green soy paper. The outside has lobster salad and caviar. Another roll that i would order again. Very Very good. My husband ordered the sweet heart roll which was really pretty. Inside it has crab meat, cucumber, avocado, spicy tuna and crunchh wrapped in a pink rice paper topped with raw fresh tuna. I tried it and the tuna was very fresh. This roll is absolutely delicious but should only be ordered if your into raw fish. You can definitely taste it. Lastly, the beef udon. The sauce was very light BUT the flavor was there 100 percent. So delicous, so filling, so flavorful. I think we will certainly be ordering this specific dish again soon. It was that good. Overall we were so much happier with our second order from here. I think going forward we will continue to try different rolls and dishes from the stir fry section. I will absolutely continue to order from this place. i highly recommend it."
