I got a passion fruit juice, cheese empanada, cream cheese and guava empanada, and a side of yellow rice and beans. Everything was absolutely delicious!! The rice was so flavorful and soft. The portions were huge! The restaurant was very cutely decorated. There are stools to await food. The customer service was the icing on top!! I believe the owner was servicing me and he was sooo kind to me and to every customer who walked in was treated with the upmost gratitude and sincerity. I am excited to have finally tried this delicious food and I look forward to returning to try more!

This place was so delicious I wanted to buy more and save it for next three days. The tripleta hit the spot, the three meats and the sauce with the toasty bread was amazing!!

I was told the chopped cheese is just as amazing but haven't tried it ... yet!

I visited last week with my sister for a quick lunch on Sunday. We've dined here many times over…read morethe years and have consistently had positive experiences! My 3 star review is due to the fact that gratuity was automatically added to our bill. In all the years I've been coming here, I've never had this happen before, especially on a bill of around $60 for a party of two. I feel this should be clearly disclosed to guests. As someone who has worked in the service industry, we were always told to communicate when gratuity has been added, as failing to do so can come across as misleading and may result in customers unintentionally tipping twice. I don't necessarily take issue with gratuity itself, but transparency and clear communication are important parts of good service.

We were here on a Friday evening and they had a live DJ playing music and lifting up the energy of the place. Seems like a fun start of the night.

The consistency of this great restaurant in delivering a great experience is second to none!

Try the delicious steak tips, chicken, ziti, & broccoli, and red roast bliss potatoes like we had at our gathering!
