Other than a giant map of Puerto Rico & a couple of mini-signs of hot sauces, there is very little wall decor. The very friendly service makes up for the minimalist interior. Order at the counter & pick up your food in cardboard containers on trays. Comprehensive menu of many kinds of empañadas plus chicken tenders, side diy, desserts, sodas, etc. Pre-made empañadas are brought to the restaurant, placed in small, open bags, are kept warm in a glass case & are replenished throughout the day. We each got a Combo meal which included 2 empanadas, a soda & fries (rice & beans, as a substitute, cost a dollar more). When our order arrived incorrect, they were swift to fix it in a mist gracious way. Prices are very affordable.

Everything was delicious! The service provided by our server was great, and the food arrived within 10 minutes of ordering, which was impressive. They also had nice music playing for Sunday dinner. My only slight disappointment was that the kids' drinks don't come with the little rubber duckies anymore, my kids used to love that detail! Overall, a great meal. ¡Vinimos a cenar el domingo y pedimos el plato Piqueo (camarones, carne, anticuchos, mondongo/pancita y salsa huancaína), el plato de filete de pescado y el ceviche mixto! Todo estuvo delicioso. El servicio de nuestra mesera fue excelente y la comida llegó en unos 10 minutos después de pedir, lo cual fue genial. También tenían buena música para la cena del domingo. Mi única pequeña decepción fue que las bebidas de los niños ya no vienen con el patito de goma; a mis hijos les encantaba ese detalle. En general, ¡una excelente cena!

I will say that I was initially a bit turned off by my experience here. We were visiting family in…read moreeastern LI and on the way back home, stopped to visit my parents in East Meadow. I wanted to bring my parents some food, but not "fast food". We love Peruvian as it's the closest comfort food we've ever had that is just like home cooking and I know my parents would love it. I found this restaurant online, and the reviews were promising. I ordered on their website and set the pick up time. The payment went through on my end because I received a notification immediately upon paying. When we arrived to the restaurant, I was unsure where to enter. I accidentally entered the dine in restaurant section. They seem to have multiple spaces; a nicer restaurant with dim lighting, neon lights and a lively ambience, a more casual dining area that was empty this particular night, and then a bar section for drinks and takeout. One of the employees walked me over to the pick up area near the bar, and I let them know I placed my order. The woman looks confused and fetched the owner/manager. They claimed my payment never went through. I told them that 100% it did go through as I received a message saying such. They asked for proof of payment. I showed them my online bank account, showing the payment pending. The transaction was made through *their* specific payment set up on the restaurant's website. At this point I began to get irritated. I asked them if my food was ready because I ordered ahead for the main purpose of having the food ready by the time I arrived. They seem to still believe that maybe the payment did not go through and reluctantly began preparing my order. They could definitely sense that I was getting upset and my patients was running thin. They also obviously did not have my food ready so I ended up having to wait longer than anticipated. I had my husband come in with our kid, ordered some shots and a couple drinks. They were nice enough to comp us a couple drinks to make up for the inconvenience. Their natural juices do taste very good. I tried their passion fruit. I got my parents a rotisserie chicken and chaufa. I also tried both and they were great. I ordered myself a tamale but left it out all night and had to throw it away. I'm still pissed about that. They get 3 stars because the food and drinks were good, and they made up for their mistake, but I'm still a bit annoyed at their janky payment system. They're conveniently close to my parents' house so I'll probably try them again but maybe stop by in person and order take out while enjoying a drink at the bar.

There was a classy and welcoming feel to the place. Upon being seated, there were complimentary corn nuts with a savory green sauce. These were tasty and addicting, with a satisfying crunch. For my drink, I wanted to try the Purple Corn beverage. The waiter brought me Purple Corn and Passionfruit juices, recommending that I mix them together. I sampled them separately at first, and loved the taste of both. The Purple Corn was delicate and sweet, while the Passionfruit was citrusy and refreshing. I wasn't sure I would them as much together, but it turned out to be a delightful blend. I ordered the Steak with Sausage, along with sides of Tostones, Salad, Rice, and Moro. The Steak had lovely grill marks, was wonderfully tender and well seasoned. The Sausage was juicy and also bursting with flavor. Tostones were perfectly crispy, thin, and oh so flavorful. Some of the best I have tasted! Salad was a nice and colorful mix of corn, purple onion, tomatoes, avocados, bringing a fresh element to the dish. White rice was fluffy and cooked well. The Moro I did not care for, because I found it to be bland. Service was excellent. The waiter was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I enjoyed my meal here and would return if in the area to try one of the Seafood dishes.

I had my reservation for 7 and arrived early at 6:40, I knew that I wouldn't get the table but I was early so I just decided to wait inside, BIG MISTAKE! Checked in with the manager where he told me it would be about a 20 minute wait or so which was fine, no waiting area so I was able to strand by the bar, not a big deal! After about 30 minutes of waiting I am seeing how busy it was getting and I am waiting with another two person table by the bar, when we both see a woman walk in and asked if they could accommodate 4 people to which the manager goes "do you have a reservation ?" And she says no, didn't matter as he replies with "okay we can accommodate you give me 3 minutes for this table to pay"??? At this point I am now upset, first of all, we had a reservation and have now been waiting for nearly 45 minutes for something that should have been ready at 7 for and the table who I was waiting with also took this badly and walked out, my wife asked the unprofessional manager how it is possible for a 4 person table with no reservation to be sat so promptly but he has 2 two person tables waiting standing by the bar for a long period of time? This manager replies with "well I can't break the four top table and give it to the two tops"?? Like you can't sit the 2 reservations waiting to be sat for an extended period of time? Didn't offer any apology or nothing, some audacity, I will never be back!
