The empanada was huge--one was plenty for me. A friend ordered two and could only finish one! We also shared the Yucca Root with cheese and fresh avocado appetizer. Everything was simply made and very delicious, especially with one or more of the sauces provided in plastic bottles for the table. The service was prompt and friendly. The ambience is strictly plain, but the outdoor tables with umbrellas would be great on a nice warm day. I'll be back!

The chimichurri sauce added so much to the taste. This Argentinian Empanadas restaurant was started by two brothers who didn't see their homeland empanadas in Denver so started their own just when Covid hit and survived, a testament to how good they are. The place is not very big with less than a dozen tables, but it seems the bulk of their business is to-go anyway.

I ordered the Sweet BBQ Pork and the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese based on staff recommendations. I'm a big fan of savory breakfast kolaches, so the bacon one was right up my alley. Both were delicious, but what really stood out was the pastry itself which was just done really well. I've also had their banana Nutella empanada before, and that one truly knocked my socks off (I've got a major sweet tooth). Between the savory and sweet options, it's a spot I'll definitely keep coming back to.

Be very careful about the total that you are getting rung up for. I've been in this store multiple…read moretimes, and this is the second time that I've been rung up way over my initial total, in favor of the store. We went to the restaurant, and our total should have been around $10, but then the cashier tried to ring up our credit card for $18. When she got caught, she tried to give me $3 out of the register to make it up, but when I told her $8, she got a manager. Watch your totals before handing over your payment. The pupusas from the restaurant were doughy and the filling didn't have any flavor. Last time I went in I got tres leches cake and it was just a sugary mess swimming in too much liquid. The quality of the meat from the carneceria was really tough, chewy. So far, I haven't found anything worth going in to this market for, except cheap prices for low quality goods. I keep giving them a try because they are close to home, but there are way better Mexican markets in Denver.

Basically, enough space to choose your items and check out. The majority of the building is taken up by the bakery space where folks were working hard. There are a couple small tables outside to sit and enjoy. We had a small group that was on a bakery crawl for a friend's birthday. This stop was fun!

The place was packed even at 4:30 pm so it's very popular with the locals around the neighborhood.

I went midday and surprisingly no one was there. Tiny little store but smelled awesome. Service left more to be desired. They were out of the Pork Green Chile but I was able to get the 2 that I wanted (Red Pork and Green Cheese). It's always good to ask if items are spicy or non spicy, and the cashier let me know the Green Cheese is spicy. I tried one which wasn't very spicy but the 2nd one I had, was definitely spicy! Depends who makes it and how much green chile they add. I don't see much cheese so it must have already melted into the masa. If you like it spicy (and can handle the heat), grab the green chile/tomato salsa - absolutely delicious! Red pork was also delicious. The sizes of these tamales are pretty big but not all consistent. Also they are thick masa. If they were just equal layers or thinner then they'd be perfect - but I don't mind the thickness. It was pretty expensive but hey, we typically only get tamales around the holidays so can't be helped. Other option would be to get your bags and freeze what you don't eat. Parking is off the street or surrounding neighborhood. They have a big open lot out front but not sure if it's for parking.
