    The best empanadas
    Sandra K.

    If you haven't eaten here yet then run. I love this place from all of its locations. Food moved fast and everything was ready in the minutes. The lomo saltado has my heart. The flavors are all there in every single way. Been to Peru, had this in Peru, and it's better here. Period. When I lived in St. Louis I found a place with delicious lomo saltado but it was close to $50. This one is close to $20. My three year old thought it was so delicious. Tables inside the restaurant and bar seating as well as out in the regular post area. I love the empanadas here too.

    Rotisserie Chicken Sandwich
    Anokhy D.

    I was looking for a quick dinner before a concert next door to POST and ordered the rotisserie chicken sandwich here. It was filling, the wait time was normal for POST restaurants, and the plantains in the sandwich quickly made this one of my favorite sandwiches in downtown. The fries were fine, not super seasoned.

    Arepa, chicken skewer
    David S.

    Located inside The Post, the arepa caught our attention and that's exactly what we ordered. We also added a chicken skewer. The lady working was nice and helpful and provided us with a wait time which was accurate. The food had great flavors and there was a slight crunch which we enjoyed. There is plenty of inside seating available as it's a giant food hall with pretty much everything you could wanna sample. Check them out

    It is a cute, comfy sitting area, but you can order food and sit anywhere you like

    If you visit The Post Houston, please don't miss this food place. The word Andees is exciting and shows how deeply its meaning relates to the Chef's struggle and hard work. Let me introduce you to Mr David, who is extremely humble and makes efforts to show respect to his clients. Of course, his cooking says it all. The Andes are the continuous mountain range that starts in Alaska, passes through California, and then descends into the sea to South Venezuela. You must try every dish at this restaurant, and if you like seafood, you will love it even more. We highly recommend this cute, delicious cafe inside The Post in Houston. Actually, we went back and tried a few new things. Again, service was very personal and out of this world. A very sweet lady helped us at the counter; her smile was magical. It was my birthday dinner so it was awesome. Thank you. David, you are an awesome chef and very hard-working person.

    Coconut Curry Shrimp
    Haley M.

    I'd say this was some of the best Spanish food I've had in a very long time! I loved this place overall. Initially, the guy who took my order took a very long time to notice me when I walked up to the counter. I thought I got his attention at least twice but it took a few minutes for him to come over. After I ordered, I walked around the Post until I was notified that it was ready. It was moderately priced but so so so delicious. I ordered the coconut shrimp curry with empanadas. I also loved the decor inside, with native figures and the tile art on the walls. It was so beautiful. I would HIGHLY recommend coming here! I can't wait to come back!

    Ceviche
    Vivian H.

    My husband and I went to The Post Market food hall to have some dinner. He chose to try Peruvian food. As ceviche lovers and Peruvian food lovers we couldn't wait to try Andes Cafe. We wanted ceviche of course, but I also wanted Leche de Tigre, so we asked more fish in the ceviche mixto instead of shrimp, and instead of the shrimp some crispy calamari. Staff is great, they gave us exactly as we ordered with no hesitation whatsoever. Service is quick also. Decor of the place is very authentic to Peru. The ceviche looked great, fresh fish, camote, canchitas, choclo, fried crunchy calamari, fresh onion and cilantro. The leche de Tigre had the perfect acidity, and spice to it, next time I would order more leche in my ceviche. I recommend Andes Cafe.

    Cachapa - sweet corn pancake
    Lesley M.

    ThI Andes Cafe is situated at the back corner of POST Houston. It specializes in South American flavors including cuisines from Argentina, Venezuela, Peru and more! The store front has an inviting neon sign boasting the Andes mountains in the background. The restaurant has a few small tables inside or you can order at the front counter and come back to pick up your food when ready if you are sitting at one of the larger tables in the open dining area of POST. The cachapa or sweet corn pancake is one of my go-tos at The Andes Cafe. The combination of sweet and savory is so satisfying. Eat it as an appetizer with friends or as your entire meal! Very cheesy and tasty. My other favorite is the coconut shrimp curry (which I did not order on my most recent trip). Very flavorful with fresh shrimp and sweet plantains! It's a hefty serving which makes the $16 price tag much more palatable. Enjoy the fast-paced, hustle and bustle of the vibrant POST Houston with these flavors from South America!

    Ceviche Mixto
    Jennifer H.

    This spot is located in the POST. We tried the ceviche mixto. It took a little while for it to be ready. The seafood was quite tasty and tender. My least favorite part of the dish was the calamari - it wasn't crispy, and I didn't like the breading. Everything else was yummy. On the pricey side for the amount

    They have a variety of international foods. After watching the Food Network Channel and intermittently fasting, I was craving Peruvian food but ended up getting Coconut Shrimp Curry from Ecuador, my husband ordered the Lomo Saltado Peruvian dish and the Sweet & Savory Corn pancake from Venezuela as an appetizer. We shared all the dishes. I was thoroughly pleased with my choice. This restaurant is located at The Post downtown and has limited seating which we were able to sit at however you could go throughout the food court and find plenty of tables to dine at. I especially liked the plantains shrimp and rice and the sauce accompanied with it. The corn pancake did have too much chewy cheese but the texture of the cake was delicious. Our food came out pretty fast. We sat at a dirty table for a while and had to ask twice to have the dishes picked up. They only had one lady taking your order at the counter and serving. But it's a pretty small place seating for 11.

    Lomo Salteado

    The food has good flavor. Ambiance needs attention, they can do better with making clients feel better.

    I'm not sure why it's taken me so long to post a review on Andes Cafe because I love the place! I should start by mentioning I'm allergic to corn so I have not been able to try all the dishes but when I do come by they are extremely helpful with modifications to my ceviche. I've actually had the majority of the main dishes/appetizers/sides on the menu! I really appreciate how small the menu is because I think that's what makes all the dishes so good. My favorites are fish ceviche, mixed ceviche, the churrasco, and the coconut shrimp. The restaurant is very small but cute and the staff is very friendly. I love that the menu has a diverse cuisine from different South American countries so you get to try a little of everything. I recommend a visit when you are at POST HTX

    Located inside POST Houston, Andes Cafe stands out for its South American inspired dishes and raw bar. Every eatery inside of POST operates on an above average cost by a couple of dollars, so be aware. With that said, the quality of Andes was on par to what I expected. The food was well cooked. The eggs I added to my entree were fried perfectly. I very much enjoyed my meal. My dining partner enjoyed his as well. No complaints here!

    Mike D.

    Really a hidden gem. Harder to get to but worth the trek. The food is extremely authentic and true to the South American countries the recipes come from. Everything is fresh, very nice atmosphere in the restaurant and the staff is really friendly. You will feel you are in South America you just don't need a Passport. Get ready to explore some basic to exotic new things. The waiters will help you decide. From fish to pork, i am sure someone posted the menu... check it out. Come here, you will be glad you did and will add it to your regular be

    Can you order wine by the glass?

    Yes you can. Glass and by bottle.

    Are they still open? I know they have moved to Bravery Chef Hall, but I no longer see them on the list of restaurants to order from.

    They are at the Post

    I'm really hungry and this place sounds really good but I don't really feel like drinking coffee. Is it mandatory to order coffee?

    Yes, that is the stupidest question I've ever heard...

Our server was super attentive and he made sure that everyone's food and drinks came out at the same time even if someone came in later.

I feel like my food was probably sitting for a while because it wasn't hot. The omelette itself didn't really have any flavor nor did the potatoes. The most flavorful thing on the plate was the avocados and fruit. I didn't even really feel like it was an omelette. Looked more like a bunch of meat wrapped in an egg cover vs everything being nicely mixed together. I took it to go because I didn't want to throw it away there. The service was very slow. I'd say it took a little over an hour for me to get my food and some people in the group waited longer. One of the girls waited for quite a bit and then the waiter told her they don't have the item she was waiting for. Waiting 1 hr to be told your meal is isn't available is crazy lol Waiter was nice though and comped the other item she ordered. Overall, I'd say I wasn't impressed with Gloria's brunch for sure. Maybe I'd try them again for happy hour at their other location.

We had both the mole flight and mole tasting. Both of them were really good, one allows you to try the different moles and the other is a five course meal with a variety of smaller entrees. My favorite was the duck, which had a really meaty flavor to it without being too gamey. The chocolate cake that comes with it had a nice kick to it with the cinnamon. We also got sea bass (off menu), roasted oysters, and the coconut dessert. I thought the sea bass was a little spongy and disappointing as I'm normally a huge fan of its delicate meat. The roasted oysters were also just okay. I loved the coconut desert, especially the part of the coconut that looks like the flesh but I think might just be some sort of sorbet because it started melting. Drinks were great as well. I had a roasted berry drink that was so refreshing with a hint of sweetness. We tried so many different foods that it was hard to keep track like I normally would. My suggestion is to let the staff guide you as they are phenomenal. And yes, parking is expensive. I think valet is worth doing, just make sure to add it to your bill and know that valet closes when the restaurant closes so if you're planning on staying after, you have to move your car.
