Family-owned and community-loved, El Cafetal brings comfort and culture to every plate. The Carne Asada plate was fabulous with the green salad and a plain arepa (corn cake). The 3 Carne-stuffed Arepas were very tasty. Sauces make the meal even better. Same two ladies who own the El Cafetal on Garrity in Nampa are the owners at this Warehouse restaurant. Slightly smaller menu at this new location. Co-owners Adriana Scarpetta and Triny Silva, both from Cali, Colombia, dreamed for years of opening their own restaurant. They opened doors at the Boise International Market in January 2015, but eight months later a fire blamed on arson gutted the international market's building and displaced all the businesses that had opened there. Adriana and Triny operated out of a food truck until they were able to obtain the financing to re-open. Reopened in April 2017 at their Nampa location. Now they are back in Boise and still in Nampa.

Their tortas are a bit spendy but I always get the empanada. They're not overly filling but they're plenty for me. The ham and cheese one is surprisingly tasty and I think it's like six bucks. Very good price for a quick lunch highly recommend.

When they called us for the food, there was 2 plates of 2 and 1 with 3. Naturally I got the 3 and the first one I bit into was linguica. Perfect. However the next 2 were both wrong. They mixed them up on the kitchen so I got 2 I didn't want and my colleague got 2 he didn't want. He ate mine but I didn't want his so we had to buy 2 more. Wasn't a great experience They were good once I got the right ones, but not the best system for keeping them straight

It's a small little local spot, and they were busy when we went on a Wednesday around noon. The service was amazing. So sweet, friendly and attentive. She made great recommendations and was so great about mentioning portions (so we made mindful choices), they even made a special order quesadilla for my son (who is allergic to corn). Let me just say, everything was fresh, flavorful and delicious. We tried the chicken, bean and cheese pupusa, the pork bean and cheese pupusa, and the bean and cheese pupusa, and their slaw is sooooo good and adds that fresh element, also, definitely try their picante sauce, so good- and my son had a chicken and cheese flour quesadilla. For dessert we ordered the churros, and those were delicious too. It seems to be a local favorite and I can see why. We can't wait to go back.

She got the mac and cheese empanada and it was perfectly cooked on the outside, delicious mac and cheese filling, and crunchy fries. I got gaucho empanada combo with a guava Jarritos (my favorite). The filling in my empanada was perfectly seasoned, not oily or too moist. It was just enough so it wasn't dry, but didn't make the shell soggy. For dessert ny daughter got the churros with strawberry jam and I got a guava empanada (sub cream cheese for mozzarella). Next time I'll try it with mozzarella, but I really wanted to try cream cheese/guava combo. It was so hard to decide what to get because everything looked good. Now that everything tasted so good, I need to go back. So sad that I'm only in Boise for a few days. Service was excellent - they give you a number and bring it to the table hot and fresh. There is a good amount of seating, nice ambiance, and clean restrooms.

The server greeted us warmly (in both aspects) and she apologized for the A/C situation. She made sure we were seated as comfortably as possible. She had a very positive presence despite our understanding that she certainly was not comfortable herself. She took her time and helped us choose our meal as she showed us on the menu which were the most popular selections. My wife chose the Cuban sandwich, I the Pan Con Bistec. We both enjoyed our sandwiches very much, though my wife, having had a bite of mine, preferred my sandwich as the better. The french fries included with the sandwiches did not look special, but we both voiced our opinions that the fries are fantastic! We will be back.
