Not only did I learn a lot about about the menu, but he shared personal stories from his birth nation of Venezuela as I waited for my freshly prepared meal. I knew that I wanted to try my first Arepa, so I let Jose decide which of the 6 options I should. His favorite was Reina Pepiada; shredded chicken, avocado and mayo stuffed inside a split open patty of fried corn dough. The flavorful cold "chicken salad" complimenting the hot grilled pancake. A great choice. The $13 combo also came with a side of black beans, rice and fried plantains. Make sure you ask for a cup of the mango-habanero sauce if you dare. Potent and delicious for dipping or giving a kick to the rice and beans. Picnic tables are available in the back if you are not taking back to the office or house. Eager to try the Cuban or steak sandwich on the menu.

Also hard to identify is the unique flavor in the horchata drink, which I really liked too. I want to come back and try every drink.

The tostada like thing on the sampler platter and the empanada were other standouts. I'll be back!

We ordered 4 combinations of fiesta fajitas, 3 shrimp tacos, refried beans, guacamole, chips, and salsa. The portions of the extra sides were super small, and the prices were a bit higher than expected. The fajitas were a nice portion and super savory, but they only come with 2 tortillas. I would definitely go back for the fajitas, but I will not order anything extra. We ordered over the phone and picked up in 20-25 minutes, as indicated. Everything was perfectly packaged and warm. It was after 1:30pm, so there was no lunch rush, and it had a relaxed vibe.

I started with a couple of papusas - one cheese, one jalapeno. Then I followed up with three tacos - pollo, asada and chorizo. All were cooked and presented perfectly. A few weeks later, I returned for a follow up meal. I dove into the menu and chose the Mar y Tierra - Sea and Earth - large shrimps and beef meat served with rice, fries and salad. I thought the beef was really good. The shrimps and rice were okay. The fries and salad were a little disappointing - especially for being a main course. I think I'll stick with the tacos, tortas and papusas going forward. Service was a bit slow, but friendly and helpful.

Walking in you'll find it's a very bright, cheerful atmosphere, very clean, with about ten tables (I think), and two tv's playing Spanish music. The people are nice and very efficient. Chef Joseph is phenomenal. He was manning the register when I went in. I'd never been to a Mexican & Salvadoran restaurant before. I'm familiar with Mexican American food, a little bit with truly authentic Mexican, and not at all with Salvadoran. Chef Joseph came out from behind the counter and sat at my table explaining the menu to me, the dishes, the flavor profiles. He gave suggestions on what order based on what I told him I liked. I got one of the combo dishes mainly because it offered a variety of proteins and side dishes. I also saw several more items in the menu that I knew I wanted to try on my next visit. The food was delicious! I surprised myself by finishing the whole plate. I was also delighted to find La Cocina De Mary had atole. It's a traditional cold weather drink made with masa harina, milk, and spices. My tia made it when I was a kid, so there's fond memories. This one was better ... and lucky for me tia isn't on Yelp and will never read this. They have soft drinks and a few alcohol drinks that I may try next time. The one that's a bloody mary except with beer instead of vodka sounded interesting. Next time I go, I'm taking FPO with me. This is a great little place and I hope they're there for a long time to come.

However, entering this store one is transported to a totally different world. Almost like walking through a wardrobe! Clean, asymmetrical decor, a pleasant and welcoming smile. Several regulars came in and confirmed the positive experience is not out of the norm. But of course, the main point is and should be the coffee and food. The donuts (made locally) were tasty, if a bit too sugary. If you have a sweet tooth ache make sure you get one. The coffee was very good. The latte wasn't overly hot, and not bitter nor sour as is often the case. And the fact it's a non-profit purely designed to direct all profits and proceeds back into the town it's operating in, very cool. Although it's not the very best coffee I've had, it's quite good enough, and tasty enough that I'll be coming back here again on my next swing through Kansas City. And you should too.
