What albert likes about Selva Negra:
Went to Selva Negra thinking it was a Cuban place. It is Nicaraguan. My wife and I ordered the grilled meats for 2 and received 2 sides per person. The platter contained pork and 3 styles of beef. All were excellent in flavor and texture. The portions were huge including the side dishes. My wife had 2 drinks and the bill came out to $38.00. How this place has not had a prior review I don't know. View all feedback.

On the positive side, the food wa... View all feedback.
