    Dessert case
    Amanda S.

    Wonderful breakfast and lunch spot. The food is really fresh. The spicy beef empanadas are the best! Tip: purchase frozen empanadas to cook at home (air fryer I found to have the best results vs baking in the oven). Their desserts are super good, especially the little deluce de leche cookies. The salads are very fresh. The bread is soft and fresh on the migas sandwiches and the triple chicken/avocado/tomato sandwiches. Coffee is great too. Service is what one would expect at a casual neighborhood deli.

    We had breakfast here with our family. The coffee's were really good. There are a ton of cool choices on the menu. The empanadas were amazing. We also ordered a cake for our daughter's birthday. It was excellent! There are also a ton of wines and other authentic dry foods to buy as well. Really enjoyed the Argentina decor near the back.

    What a great hidden gem. Fantastic food with great service. We had 2 of their specials a day we will definitely be returning next time we are in town. Location is cute with many cultural aesthetics of South America. I definite spot to check out.

    We stopped by after the beach to get a quick afternoon snack and it hit the spot! My husband is obsessed with Argentinian food and there was so much we didn't try, so we will be back! I love that they sell items you can't just find at any store from Latin America! There's a super warm, vibrant and cozy atmosphere that we loved! We will be back for breakfast. The juice, croissant, and sandwich we tried were all delicious and the service was great!

    This wonderful restaurant/deli is open for breakfast & lunch featuring Peruvian, Argentinian, & American meals. We have been here twice and really like the place. It is owned and managed by the same couple that owns the highly popular El Gaucho Inca Restaurants in Fort Myers and Estero. The Empanadas especially are truly delicious, plump with substantial filling and not too much surrounding dough. The Cafe Con Leche is also excellent. Food: 5 stars Location: 4 stars Ambiance/Décor: 5 stars Value: 5 stars Service: 4 stars

    Today with my family we visit Estero in Florida, a beautiful, colorful and peaceful place. One of our places to explore was El gaucho Inca deli Cafe, an excellent selection of Argentine, Peruvian and Cuban products. Authentic Argentine and Peruvian dishes, great variety, including matambre, a meat and vegetable roll, which is cut into thin slices and also eaten in sandwiches. The pleasant surprise was the dulce de leche of their own preparation and the sugar-free version. If you visit El gaucho Inca for other delicacies, do not leave without the dulce de leche, you will appreciate the recommendation.

    Excellent service and hands down the best cafe con leche I have ever had ! We got avocado toast , frappe coffee , Argentinian sausage and avocados . They also sell wines and market items . 4 stars because they need to add healthy options like fruit or oats or whole wheat bread .

    Had a lovely lunch, with a coripán sandwich and a green smoothie. Cute ambiance, with a nicely curated store section.

    OMG.....what a fabulous find !! It's a small place, on Pondella Rd. in North Fort Myers, just off…read moreHwy 41. Walking in the restaurant smells marvelous..... not a spicy smell, but more a blend of savory. The table had white paper and was decorated for Valentine's Day !! Nice touch. First time for us.... They were not very crowded for lunch and we were seated right away. Victor approached us to take our drink order. What a friendly, nice guy. I ordered the Red Sangria, ($15.00) in a big wine glass which was very tasty. I then ordered the Pulpo Al Olivo from the "starters" menu, with a side of Tostones. (Which was Octopus, sliced avocado & a terrific Kalamata Olive cream sauce. The octopus was tender and piled on slices of avocado. They didn't skim on the avocado at all. Wasn't sure why the club crackers were added to the plate. I pushed them aside at first, but then used them as they were intended..... OMG..... the crackers added a slight buttery, savory taste to compliment the Kalamata sauce. And, it was extremely tasty and plentiful. Definitely would order this again !!! My husband ordered Tallarin Huancaina Con Savana de Lomo. My best interpretation was ~ skirt steak on pasta with a spicy cream sauce !! He LOVED it !! We asked.... they provided !! We were able to buy a 16oz jar of the delicious Huanciana sauce to take home. YES...... YES..... highly recommended and we will be back again !!!

    We drove to North Fort Myers for an early Sunday dinner. The parking lot gave an impression that it…read morewas converted from a convenient store into a restaurant. Both inside and outside tables are available but we opted for inside table. There are many Christmas ornaments both inside and outside at this time of year! Nicholas greeted us with a warm welcome. He is personable, with a friendly smile. In fact, he informed me that the word, Sunqu, is a Quechua word that means "heart" and comes from the Incas. We were set up with fried plantain slices, roasted corn nut, concha, with dipping sauce. Both tasted freshly made and crunchy. It went well with my full glass of Sangria. A great way to start your meal! Wife ordered her favorite Peruvian dish, Lomo Saltado. She loved how the beef was cooked and the seasoning is perfect. I ordered the grilled octopus. It was tender and flavorful. This is a culinary experience you must try! The presentation for both dishes are colorful and artistic. In fact, I ate the flower as Nicholas told us it is edible! The chef, Oscar, ask me how I like the grilled octopus. I said, "Love it and well done". We were so full and did not try their Seven Leches cake! If you like Peruvian food, this is the place for you! Check it out for yourself. You'll not be disappointed. Five stars rating!
