Let's get this out of the way right now: I LOVE food carts! Ever since I was a wee lad getting a…read morehotdog from a vendor at the ballgame, I have enjoyed getting my food from outside of brick and mortar restaurants. Instead of a lemonade stand, my friends and I had a sidewalk food stand, where we sold pizza and hot pretzels to our neighbors. And now I work in downtown Denver, and I could go to a food cart everyday if I wanted to. So I've walked by Empanadas Argentina's blue umbrella a number of times, always on my way to someplace else and always thinking to myself "I've got to try that cart!" So I did. Today. And it's delicious. They have 4 kinds of empanadas: Spicy Chicken, Beef, Ham & Cheese, and Spinach with White Sauce. He was out of Spicy Chicken (damn you guy that just bought them all from under me!) but was cooking more up in his cart's oven. So I opted for the 3 empanadas for $5, and got 1 of each of the remaining choices. You have to get at least 3. I could probably have eaten 3 more. They aren't that big. The beef was by far the best. Flavorful, kinda cheesy with an outstanding buttery yet flaky crust. My second favorite was the Spinach. I was expecting more of an alfredo sauce for the white sauce, but it wasn't nearly as rich. Just enough sauce to give the spinach creaminess, yet little enough to not overwhelm the spinach. Same flaky crust. Finally, the Ham & Cheese. Also good, but it just seemed like a better quality/tasting hot pocket to me. Of course, it had that signature flaky crust. So if you're walking down 16th st. and have a hankering for a quick bite, grab some empanadas from Empanadas Argentina. You won't be sorry.

The service was quick, and while there isn't much seating inside, there are plenty of spots along the street where you can sit, relax, and enjoy your ice cream. Such a fun place to stop if you're in the area!

What a delightful find on the 16th Ave strip. Ichigo is a little kiosk from which Japanese treats…read moreare served. We had the matcha and strawberry swirl soft serve. It was a good balance between the intense grassiness of the matcha and the sweetness of the strawberry. I ordered mine in a tayaki lined with Nutella. It came out as a sundae with the tayaki on top plus a little lemon macaron and two pocky sticks. To absolutely no one's surprise, this was too much dessert (at least for me) and could have been split with someone else. There are some fish sculptures to sit on and a couple Adirondack chairs, but otherwise you might need to stand while eating or take it while you walk. Less than ideal but comes with the whole kiosk thing. The staff wasn't so great at communicating options and so, for example, my friend wasn't given the option to choose her cone flavor though they clearly had 3 options. No big deal--definitely worth a stop on a hot day.

For the starter we got the bisque which was creamy and flavorful! I chose the entree as lamb sliders and my friend chose the mushroom steak but we both thought the entrees were pretty bland. Then the dessert came and it was flavorful again! I'm usually just okay with lemon flavor stuff and I dislike raspberries and even tho the lemon bar had both I still enjoyed it! The drinks were great too. The service was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu but we noticed it was very slow. She rarely checked up on us and tend to forget stuff we ordered it was to the point where I had to set a 20 min wait time expectation everytime we asked for something. She did take accountability and apologized so I do appreciate that. Overall an okay place to go maybe mostly for drinks and desserts.
