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.

Cake

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.

Sándwich de Lomito

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.

Argentina sausage
Erika S.

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 .

Wonderful pastries!

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

My fav place is now open for DINNER TOO!!! I love this local hidden gem. Love that they do potatoes…read moreinstead of fries- nice contrast. Love the unique chefy inspired food. The Jeff on plain bagel- BLT- Tomato Soup- Grilled Cheese - is all 10/10. Love all the bread and side options. New cold spicy Mac and broccoli salad need to come as a bigger side. Really enjoy the outdoor dining- I mean it's Florida! Can't wait to see the new patio upgrades coming soon!!! Taste local!!!

Having that vibe just made the experience that much better! the place was packed! The tables are pretty close together, so a lot of people can be seated inside at once but they also have outdoor seating too You don't have just one server, all of the servers take care of you, which is really nice so whenever you need something, it's easy to get a hold of someone as well as being checked on to make sure you have everything that you need I don't know if this is allowed, but the workers were drinking in the kitchen area, which is open so you can see everything going on. I personally don't have a problem with it, but would hope that they don't get too intoxicated while cooking food. Overall, the environment was super fun and would definitely eat here again if we visited the area

We sampled the Quiche of the day, Quiche Lorraine and an almond croissant with a Pistachio Vanilla Latte. Both items hit the 5-star category! Croissant was flaky, crunchy and the best Quiche in Florida! The Banana Nut Bread, Sticky Buns, Cinnamon Roll, Tiramisu and cookies looked so amazing, you want to take a few home! We were early and were able to sit in one of inside tables. As we were tasting the latte, more than a dozen of patrons stop by for pickup orders. The ambiance is plain and simple. The lovely young lady behind the counter gave us exceptional service with a friendly smile! This is a cashless facility so make sure you have your credit card or e-wallet with you. This is a best place to go for pastry and coffee in Estero!

Croissant was buttery and flakey and the ham and cheese didn't overpower the delicate taste of the croissant. The cookie was rich and gooey and so good! We had to take most of it to go. We ate on pretty plates and cups and it was just lovely. The seating and dining set up was clean and inviting and just pretty! Love our little experience at the Pastry Boutique:) Will certainly visit again.

The exterior is definitely diner but inside it's a full on restaurant with a beautiful bar,…read moreamazing food and the best service. We met the owner Ali who works so hard to make sure each diner has the perfect experience. Our server Corinne was outstanding, as well as the rest of the staff we encountered. The menu is vast and will please any palate. The yum yum shrimp was a tasty, spicy moist appetizer that anyone would enjoy. My strip steak was seasoned to perfection with mashed potatoes and seasoned veggies. My husband loved his baby back ribs. Large bar area but also suitable for families. They also have a robot that delivers a portion of the meal which added to the dining experience. Lots of luscious desserts should you save room. Only open 6 weeks but with service and food this good I suspect once the word gets out how great this place is, good luck getting in.

Robot power I headed…read moreto Fort Myers yesterday and one of my reasons was to visit 41 Diner. I like visiting diners, they usually have big menus, large portions, and are reasonably priced. This particular diner had something else I was interested in, a robot food runner. My breakfast of choice was their Meat Lover's Omelet, an omelet that had cheddar cheese, cubes of ham, some ground sausage, and included in there someplace were little pieces of bacon. As far as omelets go, this one was average, nothing out of the ordinary. They didn't have their Home Fries, so my side was hash browns, which are almost designed to be uniformly average. 41 Diner has a definite diner look from the outside, inside didn't have neon or chrome but it's a large comfortable place not unlike a favorite diner. It was almost empty when I stopped in. My service was great and the food didn't take long at all to arrive. As for the robot, I didn't get to see it in action. Because they weren't really busy and I was a single diner i.e. not many plates to bring to my table, my food was delivered normally. At the end of my meal I did ask about the robot and learned they do use it. They can load it up and have it go to any table. The server will transfer the dishes to the table and send the robot back to wherever it hangs out. She told me it was very helpful and even offered to demo it for me. Here is an old school diner with point of sale checkout machines and a robot. Cool.
