We started coming here every time after we bring our dogs to the park. Lovely morning routine. This country needs more small owned businesses that makes locals feel like family. Not all the chains that become so money hungry and impersonalized. This place is perfect.

Also, have to mention Nana behind the counter..so warm and welcoming, she really made the whole experience feel personal. Nothing fancy here, just solid baked goods and genuinely kind service. Definitely a spot I'd come back to. And oh yes, the coffee was excellent!

I went twice with my family in two consecutive days. For the first visit, we ordered: -Ham & Cheese empanada -Baco Egg & cheese empanada -Sausage egg & cheese empanada -Pour over Coffee with cream and sugar -Coffee Mojito Their coffee Mojito is their signature drinks. It was very refreshing, creamy and perfectly sweetened. It was just a delightful drink. Their empanadas were very fresh, savory, flavorful, flaky, and golden. There was explosion of flavors in every bite of each type of empanadas. We ordered the same empanadas and drinks for the second time too. The staff were energetic and friendly. The service was fast. It is a great place to stop by if you are craving empanadas or refreshing drinks. You will get an excellent service too.

They didn't have some of the steak or pepperoni ones. So the choice is a little limited if there is a larger order before your order. Location : is a bit hot inside Patio: cute and open up where you can take a sit and watch outside while enjoying your empanadas Taste wise: taste is pretty good, a bit expensive for the size and the breading or dough is a bit dry for my taste. The front desk guy is pretty friendly. Out of the three, my favorite is actually the Spanish! It's pretty cheesy too. Just wish there are hot sauces that can pair up with the empanadas. I did tried their little red sauce..it's pretty much tasted just tomatoes sauce in a way. If there were some hot sauces it would had been perfect Overall: I want them to do well, a bit expensive for three of them, and I might stop by when I crave it tho, not the usual tho. Again for the price is a bit expensive for it.

You can get your coffee with agave or natural sugar if you need sweetness. Plus they sell yummy empanadas which is perfect for breakfast! If coffee is not your thing there are tea drinks and hot chocolate too. On rainy days hot chocolate is free (it rained today). Services is super friendly and accommodating! As this is more of a to ho shop, there are no tables. Outside of the shop there is a bar that you can stand up and drink at. Parking lot available too which is a bonus as so close to the beach! I will definitely be back for my caffeine and empanada fix!

I really loved the mint flavor. Definitely coming back.

The space is small and intimate and I think it would be a nice place for a casual date! We were seated quickly and the server was really great throughout the whole meal and very knowledgeable about the food. I appreciated that he let us know about the specials without us needing to ask. We started off with some drinks. I got a red wine sangria and it was good but I did find it to taste a bit watered down but it wasn't a huge deal! We also got a carne empanada and the flavor was to die for. The beef and onion was so delicious and savory. It was juicy inside but the outside was crispy and dry not soggy at all. The portion size was fairly large as well. We also got the yuca frites. They were good. Crispy but still nice and starchy and filling. Not my favorite dish but only because of personal preference and not because they didn't do it well! Lastly we ended with the pork shank special they had for the night. It was absolutely amazing. The meat just fell off the bone and was so tender. I loved how the mushroom and spinach came with the pork. All of the different parts of the fish came together really well to made it exceptional. It was a hearty and comforting meal and I wish it were on their regular menu! I'm excited to come here again in the future to try more dishes.

Was totally unimpressed by the food here. Full disclosure, we get the food through Relish catering…read more The only options to order there were the combos, fine. I got to my lunch late, so it was cold. Fine. Not their fault. What was their fault: the rice was dried out and crunchy like it had been sitting since the day before. It was inedible. The beans were fine. The ham and cheese empanada tasted so mustardy the other flavors were overwhelmed. I couldn't make the cheese out at all. The other empanada was not memorable as I can't even remember what it was. Chicken or beef. Anyway, all I remembered was not to order from here again. I'm actually getting a cold sandwich from a not favorite place as the other option instead of trying this again. That dried out rice destroyed my trust.

I've had everything from their saltado dishes, empanadas of various kinds, an assortment of their pastries, and ready to go drinks. Everything has been good for the most part. Tho when I'm craving a dessert stop here I favor the guava pastry and the alfajores, & you have to special order the cheese Pastry/bread. I'm a huge fan of "pudim" that's how you say flan in Portuguese! Yet the flan is not my favorite here since the sugar caramelization it's usually cooked too much, causing a burnt flavor, and the consistency is too aerated rather than having a creamy and smooth consistency. I've tried it a few times and that seems to be their consistent style. We get cravings for this place and like that we're mainly serviced by the nice owners of this restaurant. The restaurant is decorated in their native culture in mind. I love that! If you're craving a good empanada or a sweet tooth treat come and give them a try!

Coming from the East Coast…read moremy family and I adore Colombian food, so when my brother mentioned he found a spot nearby we all were so excited to try. We came by on Labor Day and it wasn't too busy whe. We first arrived, which we were happy about. To start off we were all VERY happy about the empanadas, user crispy, great balance to meat and potato on the inside. The buñuelos could have been better, they were hot but it didn't give freshly made..more like reheated. I ordered a coffee in the beginning to have as a pick me up before my food and didn't get it til right before we all left. Now when it comes to the main meal I ordered the bandeja paisa and so did most of us. My mom first thing noticed it didnt have the the small arepa, which none of our plates had it. My food was missing the avocado and the fried egg..I had to request it. None of the finished plates were cleared throughout our time there and it seemed like it was only 2 people working because the same guy taking our order was the same guy bringing our food and assisting everyone else who came in. Seems to me a few things could be worked on. I plan on returning because the inside was super cute and just hoping to have a better experience next time around.
