Chips - A nice starter for free. Warmer chips would be an improvement. 4.4/5 Papa Rellena de Carne - 4.4/5 Chicha Morada - A must get. Balanced and delicious. 4.7/5 Corn and cheese empanada - A must order. Flavor bomb. 4.7/5 Beef empanada - Very solid. 4.5/5 Jalea - A big app for a party of 4+. Not mind blowing but solid. The tartar was just okay but the salsa criolla is good. 4.5/5 Ají de Gallina - Very interesting dish that I have not seen before. Very flavorful and creamy. 4.6/5 Pescado a lo Macho - Flavorful but a pinch of salt put it over the top. 4.6/5 Tallarines Verdes - Elevated pasta, very light and balanced. Needed a pinch of salt though. 4.5/5 Picarones - Solid dessert to share. 4.5/5 Service Solid service with good recs. 5/5 Ambiance 5/5

Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the experience. I ordered the Una Persona Parrilla, and the grill itself was cold. At that point, it might as well have been served on a regular plate because there was no point in the sizzling presentation. The meat was cold, stale, dry, and lacked flavor. The only reason I'm giving this place 3 stars is because I had such a great time with the atmosphere and the surrounding area. If I ever come back, it definitely won't be for the parrilla. I won't be ordering that dish again.

We wanted to find some shade as well since it was 90 degrees outside. In parallel to this event, there was a city event going on at the same time called Beach Streets. That event was awesome as well! We were hungry so we posted up here from our bike ride. My wife and I got ID'd just to come in. Why ID if it is a restaurant, did not make sense? We did not have a host to sit us. Sit as you see was the service provided. Once we sat the waiter took our order. We wanted Sangria but come to find out they had nothing in stock. A restaurant that is Spanish desent and has FIFA world cup soccer being televised with out Sangria wine. Big surprise there!. We ordered a pitcher of Margarita. 10 mins to drop off and took another 17 minutes for our waiter to take our order. Ordered ceviche, empenadas and Lomo Saltado. All received within a 15 min time frame. Not going to complain about the taste, all is good. Presentation and billing is my problem from my dissapointment statements listed below. To get to the point, my complaints of dissapointment in details. This place is expensive!! The presentation of the food delivered was nothing special. The quanity being served for $26 a plate did not do justice. $16 appetizers of Ceviche and Empenadas. The margarita pitcher was $55 and it was filled mostly with ice. Lacked liquor, a bit stingy on their serving. Received our bill, they automatically but a 20% service charge tacked on my bill! Keep in mind It is only two people not a party of 6. I want the option to decide myself if the waiter is worthy of a good tip with provided service. The guy was hustling trying to take everyones orders. What type of management understaffs on a FIFA World Cup Championship game? Just one guy taking care of the entire restaurant is not acceptable. He was nearly non existence on our stay. Also, what type of managent doesnt stock alcohol up for the big game? The place looks and feels runned down. Tables looked old, restaurant was hot. Plastic Forks and spoons provided with one napkin. Lol. Just full of dissapointments. My final bill came out to $140. The nail in the coffin for me to rate this place only 1 star was the automatic service charge attached. I disagree with this restaurants billing policy. They stronghold you to pay for service, even if the service is bad. Overall, the taste is good, but if your going to charge me $26 for a plate, at least give me some silverware and clean my tables. I have been here a few times since the early 2000s. This place needs a makeover. Tables are dirty outside and inside. Charging for high quality prices for a place that doesnt deliver the ambiance. Total dissapointment on my visit. "My experience only." Ask them to remove the service charge. Complete BS

Our server, Job, was so kind, attentive, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the entire time. The manager also stopped by our table to check in, which I really appreciated.

This place may have been good once, but it is absolutely terrible and severely overpriced now…read more First off, the menu is now extremely limited to their "bar menu" or "cafe menu" for breakfast. There are not many options or sides to choose from. Had the baby gem caeser salad--not actually a caeser salad, no anchovies, and the croutons were soft and soggy. Even the pickled onions were somehow soggy. Got the sun-kissed NA drink--tasted terrible and looked gross on top. Weird bubbly foam and gross chunks floating on top. The food all came out way too quickly and just seemed like pre-made food. The ambiance was nice, but they have a serious bug problem. All over the entire property there are small little gnat-like flies that bite you. I got bit probably 20 times during dinner alone. On top of it all, they charge a 20% service fee yet still ask for a tip. Mind you, the service was not anything special. Actually, someone brought us waters, and then another person brought us waters again. It was the strangest thing and seemed like he was drunk or something. We also ordered room service and got the churros. Tasted like cardboard, came with the ice cream melted on top so they were also soggy, and I'm pretty sure we're just some frozen food. I was so surprised they could mess up churros that bad. Overall highly do not recommend this place. The hotel is nice but the restaurant is not.

It was a late lunch so I called to see if a reservation is needed for 2 ppl. Not at all so we jumped into the car. Such a wonderful restaurant in an unassuming plaza. Lots of parking. There's an outdoor seating area and a good size restaurant inside. We were greeted as we walked in. Btw, the HUGE glass door entrance, I love. There Were a few open tables and we were welcome to sit where we wanted to. Two classes of water were brought to the table and a waiter came with the menu. My mom is vegetarian and I am not. I asked the waiter for his vegetarian dishes and he provided me a pasta dish. That was exactly what my Mom was wanting. Linguine with a light pink sauce with mushrooms and you can add zucchini, bell pepper and broccoli. I ordered a sangria. That was just amazing itself. And a linguine dish with shrimp. Warm, sliced French bread and a small dish of butter was brought out first that was so good. Usually the bread and butter that is brought at small restaurants like these could be just mediocre or not good at all. This was warm and just tasty. We also ordered a Caprese. The plate came out with big chunks of mozzarella tomatoes, and both were sitting on a marinated pesto covered set of basil leaves. That was so good. The combination of the vinaigrette, mozzarella basil tomato pesto was exactly what we were looking for so refreshing. Our entrées were huge for $20 a plate. We had to take 3/4 of it home. That was so not expected. Pasta and the pasta sauce were amazing. Very freshly made. Dishes were made to order only and not sitting around. I asked if they were doing something special for birthdays and I pointed to my mom next to you know, the waiter came out with fresh homemade Tim. They also sing to my mom wish she was so sweet. I am loving this place and will be coming back. Thank you so much for the staff for making my mom feel so wonderful on her birthday. The food was amazing Services amazing. Restaurant felt warm the moment we walked in and so welcoming.

Originating in Spain, empanadas spread to neighboring countries and across the Spanish colonial network, resulting in many styles and fillings. The online magazine longbeachize.com has a great article on the owners of this business. By now, I've tried every empanada they offer at least once. What I order depends on my mood, but there are plenty of fillings to choose from. I have to say, this shop is consistent--the size and shape of the empanadas and the bread-to-filling ratio. I also appreciate that they mark the pastries, so you know exactly what's inside. But do not think they only serve empanadas. They also have sweet cakes and pasties as well.
