    Beef Empanadas
    Melissa M.

    The food & smoothies are so good! Very friendly service. The spot is at a Grubhub kitchen with different other food businesses. I highly recommend if you love good food! Outstanding . Definitely coming back

    EASILY THE BEST EMPANADAS IN THE WORLLLDDD!!! The Yaroa fries are out of this world, the chopped cheese is cooked to perfection, and they are even OPEN LATE !! One of the few places you can get a DELICIOUS SMOOTHIE at 1AM. They have the coolest owners ever and they really bring that New York bodega taste and feel. Absolutely fire.

    Iced Cafe Con Leche
    Cassie S.

    I was so delighted to find that this place opened next to a studio I frequent. It is located in a somewhat industrial area, so may be easy to miss, but has a big colorful exterior with seating on the outside. Justin was super friendly, helped us complete our order via the QR code on the door, and suggested some items to us. The cafe con leche was great and I'll definitely be back for the empanadas. We will definitely be back. This is a great and convenient option for nearby businesses!

    Was so excited when I saw this near my adventure yesterday. Plenty of street parking but make sure you don't block anyone's gate! Upon walking up I realized it's a ghost kitchen/multi-kitchen situation so you actually order online. The service was quick and the people working were very kind and sweet. There's a little table so we sat out front to eat. Very cute hanging lights, but the storm messed up the lil patio covering. We ordered the: Chicken and cheese empanada: okay, crispy wrapper that's reminiscent of a wonton wrapper. the best part was oddly the mozzerella, great cheese pull, but seemed to be concentrated in one corner Chimi sauce: okay Chop Cheese: was okay, ingredients were fresh, was looking for a bit more flavor Overall it was only okay, but I would like to try a couple more things for another review

    The late night munchies?!?! This is the place to grab you a few things. Located in a shared kitchen with multiple businesses in North Hollywood. Ordered three things from their menu to try out: 1. Dragonfruit Smoothie, made with almond milk, banana, strawberries, and agave. I love the stunning purple/reddish color it gives. It was literally so refreshing to have after a dance class. 2. 3 empanada special (2x chicken & cheese, 1x cheese), honestly I love how crispy and crunchy the texture of it, never really had crispy ones like these. The chicken & cheese had flavor and a perfect combo of protein with some creaminess and the cheese one by itself tastes yummy. These pair perfectly with the chimi sauce to give it the ooomph!!! 3. Chicken Yaroa Fries, I'm so big on potato's are those extra carbs hahah. Presentation wise and how it looks, it doesn't look appetizing because each element contains a similar color palette but it was tasty and has a burst of flavors. the chicken was cook nicely and was tender with each bite. So creamy from the cheese and the chimi sauce. Definitely, a good option to try and is a comfort food. I just felt really good eating it. Only come here if you want to eat delicious food that's comforting and full of flavor! Definitely recommend!!! P.S. You order with their QR Code/ on their app and pick it up when it's ready!

    Mangu con los tres golpes
    Msjayfab G.

    So I'm pretty excited to finally find a good Dominican spot in LA! Y'all gotta try this joint, it's a ghost kitchen. The Bodega Delights staff was so amazing and warm, really made me feel like I was back east. I purchased beef cheese empanada, beef chimi, mangu con los tres golpes, morir soñando, green açaí bowl. When I say everything was good, I mean just that!! That empanada reminded me of something my abuela would make and that mangu just tasted like HOME. Wow, I'm so grateful for supporting this team and simply being able to have good Dominican food nearby. Oh and the chimi was legit! Come on by and support, I can tell you it's worth it.

    The food is excellent. That's without question. Fresh, ample, flavorful- and consistent with East Coast NYC style Dominican Bodega bites. Priced right, and open late- this will not disappoint. Top it all off with an incredible, warm and friendly staff- this ghost kitchen kicks up neighborhood favorite vibes. Worth a delivery order- or a stop by to grab a quick (and yum) meal!

    Chop Cheese (NYC Classic)
    Aaron O.

    This food is fantastic, and I can't wait to come back. I'll admit I didn't get to try food from the Dominican bodegas when I visited New York, so I felt like I finally got the chance coming here. What an awesome addition to my neighborhood! This is a little ghost kitchen style spot in a relatively empty building (there are a couple other restaurants here too, each with their own little space). You basically either order online or walk up and order at the door. I got to talk to the owner and he was super friendly and helpful while we figured out what to try. I wanted to get a bit of all of the best stuff while we were there, and I was not disappointed...we tried the mangu con Los tres gulpes, the classic chop cheese sandwich, and three empanadas. Everything was phenomenal, and the empanadas in particular were standouts for us - I'm still dreaming about the beef and cheese. One of my favorite recent finds and can't wait to try more of the menu.

    I was visiting town and craving a legit chop cheese. They do no disappoint Fire !!!! And the service was even better. Friendly staff. They offer recommendations Food was insanely good. Even though I'm currently full I'm still thinking about the next time I'm going to try this place

    Flan empanada
    Dee R.

    Amazing food! I've tried a few things off the menu and I haven't been disappointed. You can tell they cook with their heart. Super friendly and fast. Also flan empanada!? Amazing!

    Half of the chimi burger and other half of chopped cheese
    Arely S.

    The place is great! We had the beef empanada and cheese and beef empanadas! Delicious. The beef was amazingly seasoned and the cheese was nicely melted! We also ordered a chopped cheese and chimi burger! We were not disappointed! Definitely place everyone must try and keep coming! Everything we had was chef's kiss! To top this delightful cuisine, we had kimalito de coco. The most delicious coconut creamy icy. The owners are super friendly and provided such excellent customer service! We will be coming back soon!

    So delicious ! I will definitely be returning for this acai bowl 10/10 Also the service was amazing very patient very kind & generous. Also great portions!!

    Flan empanada
    Arrik M.

    Ive gone twice and really enjoyed the food I have tried. Sandwiches are on point. Cant get a chopped cheese no where. So they really come through with that Dominican flavor and NY style food. But the Flan empanada is a banger must try if they got it.

I didn't understand her logic. I paused for a second and she said so would u like some hot sauce? It was some bottled generic hot sauce not even house made. I declined to order. The food was pre cooked , set in a steamer. Fast casual restaurant with a few tables Food was bland and subpar.

Out of curiosity, I sent another message mentioning I "knew Drake," and suddenly I got a response within 2 hours--ready to take my order. That alone didn't sit right with me. When I asked to see a menu, I was told I was "wasting her time" if I wasn't placing a catering order. We briefly discussed dates, and I was told she was booked for the rest of the month. When I politely asked when she would be available, I was left on read with no response. She had no intentions of taking my order. It honestly felt like she only responded just to tell me "I WAS WASTING HER TIME‼." That interaction made me feel discriminated against, shamed, and honestly just sad. I truly feel like if I were a celebrity or had more money, I would have been treated with basic respect. I'm new to Los Angeles and was genuinely excited to try Caribbean food since we don't have it where I'm from. This experience really discouraged me. It even made me question myself and feel like something was wrong with me, which shouldn't happen from simply trying to support a business. Overall, the customer service I experienced was rude and dismissive--at least toward me--and it completely turned me off from ever wanting to try the food. Customer service matters, and this experience made me lose interest in trying the food altogether.

We enjoyed the empanadas, I think for our group of 5 we ordered at least 20 empanadas and 3 plates to try. I asked a man behind the counter I need a order for 2/3 dozen on Sunday around 12pm. He said not a problem, I should call Sunday at 10 to place the order. I asked "are you sure" he responded it would only take 20 minutes. Problem number 1: No one was answering the phone Sunday morning, I called multiple times. Problem number 2: It take forever to place the order via the website AND there is a superfluous "support local fee" that cannot be opted out. I want this refunded. As someone who invited the group to dinner there Wed where we spent at least $150ish to my order for Sunday around $170, how dare a "support local fee" be added that could have been avoided if someone answered the phone. Problem number 3: The order was 30 mins late. Lack of personal awareness regarding your capability to answer phones and prepare orders on time is a problem. My first and second experience was so vastly different, beyond disappointing, on a day where I am putting things together to host a party it caused unnecessary stress I sent an email and didn't hear back and wanted to post my experience.
