We got two cheese empanadas de viento, plus a humita (think cheese tamale) that I wanted to have for breakfast the next day. Viento is Spanish for wind and represents how the empanadas puff up upon frying. They were by far the closest to the ones we've had at in Ecuador in the US - very puffed up with a thin, crispy shell and exactly the right mild white cheese inside. The humita was also excellent, with well-seasoned corn and a good amount of the same white farmer's cheese. One is a good size for a light breakfast. The space was small but pleasant and the bathroom very clean, and our order came out quickly. I would have given five stars if we had gotten aji, a staple Ecuadorian tree tomato salsa, with our order, and it would have been nice to have a little more cheese inside the empanadas and the traditional sugar on top. But we still loved it and will definitely be back to try entrees, drinks, and desserts (and get more empanadas and humitas!).
