For dessert, I had the Apple Pie and Banana Nutella. Everything was excellent. The service was great. They were prompt and very nice. I can't say enough about the empanadas. A must place to visit.

Been wanting to try this spot for a while and hate that I waited sooo long…read more Customer service was amazing, stopped by 6/15 around 11:30ish and the gentleman was great, asked him for recommendations and he didn't disappoint. The wait was about 10 mins which wasn't bad at all. Empanadas were crispy and warm, filling was decent. The watermelon drink they have is delicious!!!!

Wow. Had 3 piece tender meal, bread, and Mac and cheese. It was really good…read more I wasn't in the mood for fries, but the bread was soft, fresh, and hot. The Mac and cheese was simply good. The meal came with carrot sticks and celery, and I chose blue cheese. I'd definitely come here again. It's a small place next to a car wash, it you can park in any open stall. Staff here is super chill and friendly. This place is a gem in Chula Vista.

Oooh a close competitor to Epic Wings, but a better value in my opinion! The 5-pc tenderloin combo…read moreis $15.99 with 8 veggie sticks, 3 breads, dipping sauce and drink! versus at other places a combo might only have 3 or 4 pieces in a combo. Buffalo Wing Star gives you a lot of food! And it really hits the spot for wings, well cooked tenders with yummy sauces. They have a ton of sauces to choose from, I got the medium which was a bit more toned down for buffalo sauce. I also tried the original hot, which has a nice vinegar kick. The bread is very doughy and soft and it's nice you get three pieces. The location is inside the building of the car wash, which is kinda funny, and parking is available in any of the vacuum spots. The inside is quite small with only a few tables. Not busy at all when I went on a thursday night and many people taking it to go. Overall an awesome choice for wings! A very close competitor to other wing spots

The customer service was great, the sandwiches were amazing, and everything tasted so fresh. I'll definitely be back to try the sushi and some of the other goodies on the menu! Couldn't be more pleased and I am so craving a sando right! :-)

I like a good katsu sando more than most people and though I swear it tasted better at the previous…read morelocation where I saw an old Japanese man prepping the food, it's still pretty good. I've been twice to the new location including its soft opening weekend. I would skip the somewhat overpriced spam musubi. It tasted good but it wasn't life-changing, which I sort of expected for the price. The couple times I went, I found the tables to be sticky so I'd watch out for that as well if you're dining in. The fruit sandos are good if that's your thing. I always find them to be too rich with all the cream and this place was no exception. I've tried all the savory sandos on the menu though, and they're solid. You really can't go wrong. The bobas are pretty good but don't compete with the elite boba shops like 3cat or momofuku. The corn hojicha is what I liked the most out of everything I've tried. Finally, service is average to above average. The person behind the register is usually a disinterested teenagers or 20-something employee but an older guy in the back, presumably a manager, tries hard to accommodate customer requests. So hats off to him.

They offered to put on side and I was surprised I'm a regular now. So it stays crispy and crunchy but soft I'm drooling thinking and wanting this ahahahah. Service is accommodating and helpful and good. They're quick fast and popular! They get busy quick! Ambiance is just a small quaint clean but so nice! They have lots of choices of drinks and things so get more! Love that they have bone broth and other things frozen for you to bring home to prepare. Gonna do this after my pregnancy

The crispy pork belly was indeed crispy even after a drive home. I just wished it had a little more flavor. The cha lua banh mi was decent, but I wasn't a fan of how they added 2 small cuts to make it look like there was more.

finally got to try this place. Instagram brought us here lol. While waiting for our car to get…read morefixed, we decided to have a family brunch here. Lots of options to choose from. I was torn between the tortuga ninja and the breakfast mexipino. Decided to go with the mexipino sandwich and the ube pancake. Ube pancake - served on a pizza plate. Wow factor lol. The pancake was good, however i felt it could have used a macapuno syrup or something coconutty to complement the ube. The drizzle they put on it was good and i asked for extra and it boosted the flavor. This can probably feed 4-5 people depending on how hungry you are. Mexipino sandwich - this was good enough to split. I loved the savory and sweetness and saltiness. All the flavors complimented one another and i did a happy food dance. Calamansi mint drink - it was just ok for me. Reminds me of the calamansi drink from the pouches and they just added mint. It was too sweet for me so i probably wouldn't order again. It's not a big spot but they do have a lot of seating. The staff on duty were really nice. I want to come back to try the tortuga ninja sandwich. They do have high chairs for the little ones. Unsure of the restroom since we didnt use it. Plenty of free parking since this is in a strip mall.

The portions are generous. I always share or have leftovers. Everything is fresh and made to order. You can save time by ordering ahead. Today I had the chicken torta, bionicos, and the Pacific Mix juice post workout. The bread was nicely toasted on the panini, the chicken well seasoned and not dry. Light on the mayo as requested. The bionicos hit my sweet tooth but in a healthier way vs donuts or candy. The papas caseras was an impulse buy to try at a later time. I was definitely full and of course I had leftovers to bring home. A forewarning about the parking lot - it is a tiny parking lot shared with 4 or 5 other businesses including Francos Flapjacks, a tattoo shop, Chop Shop Barbers, and a smoke shop. There is only one entrance/exit and it can be crowded depending on the time and day.
