Hartura

The lechon plate was good but next time no onions. The pork had great flavor and didn't need the excessive amounts of onions it had.

Hartura is one of Wake Forest's gems. It is located in the Market of Wake Forest Shopping Center. The building has transformed from what was once home to Pizza Hut. It is on the side closer to Capital Blvd., and there is plenty of parking. Usually, when I dine here, I can select my own seat, and they bring me a menu, but at busy times, they will seat me. You can enter from either side of the building, and one side has a ramp. I try to enter on the left side as I like to look at the daily specials. Over the years, I have gotten to sample quite a bit on the menu. The portions are always large and generous. My favorites are the eggs Benedict, the burgers and the fried fish. But I have enjoyed everything I've eaten here. Breakfast can be ordered all day here. The menu has Southern dishes and Dominican dishes, too. I am always warmly greeted when I enter, and service is friendly and attentive. I'm usually given a tea to go as well. The prices are quite reasonable.

Nice little home cooking spot with a hint of spice and everything nice. I tried the chicken and waffles. I added pecans to the waffle. The combo comes with two eggs. The chicken was seasoned well. It was really good, I didn't know what to expect because they used breadcrumbs instead of flour for batter. It's a chicken breast that is tenderized and covered in breadcrumbs, then fried. I like that they added two eggs in the combo because it adds more protein to help with the waffle. Its alot of food and it's seasoned very well. My friend ordered the Cuban sandwich, and it looked soooo good. Someone suggested this place for the shrimp and grits, but we were not ready for that today. We went around 10 am or 10:30 am. They had specials like : meatloaf with sides, stir-fry with side, hamburger steak, and more. They have a big variety of food dishes. I gave two stars for service because our waitress was missing in action. We had to ask the waiters to tell our waitress to come help us. Our service was bad, but considering how the other waiters were helping and checking on their areas showed that this was the work culture of the restaurant staff. It was just her. I like the location and people of all colors were eating there. They do have a bar, and they do service drinks. One to add to the list of brunch spots.
