They've got menu items from Guatemala, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador...it's quite the collection, but everything is delicious and done really well!

We arrived around 2:00pm on a Saturday afternoon, and no one else was there. The full menu was not…read moreavailable, so we chose a couple items that were available--the empanadas and the carne asada. The cheese empanadas were good, but the cheese and the chicken empanada was not great, thanks to boiled, flavorless chicken. The house-made tortillas that accompanied the carne asada were very good. The steak was on the tough side. Service was quick but not particularly attentive. The young woman at the counter brought out our food but never asked how it was. The place is a dive, but with the exception of the women's restroom, is clean. The toilet in the women's restroom was gross, the toilet paper was sitting on the sink, and the paper towel dispenser was broken.

Yum! We loved our lunch here today. The wait was on the longer side but the food was worth it.read more

Gotta love downtown Bellingham! Overall was a tasty spot and I would recommend!

These are absolutely as authentic as Cornish pasties and offer a variety of other flavors too. My favs are the lamb and the steak pasties. As for service, it's always with a smile and a bit of delightful conversation. We like to pickup a dozen frozen pasties and grab a hot one since we can't wait to bake it ourselves. Don't forget the sauce and the delicious baked goods too.

Everyone speaks Spanish whether you call or go in person, there is only employee names Leslie though who does speak fluent English. The store sort of reminds me of the little snack stores in all inclusive resorts, with a dessert fridge and trays of pastries. Everything made fresh and decently priced. We recently ordered the 8" tres leche cake for $65, and it is massive! I know it's soaked in three milks, but it was so heavy... it's finished with whipped cream and fruit, and you can choose either coconut or chocolate for the outside. We chose coconut for a less sweet option -!: it was delicious, super moist and tasty. It's a very rich cake though with all the whipped cream, so you can't eat too large a slice. There were plenty of leftovers, so we pre sliced them and freezer them. They defrost in the fridge overnight and taste so good again the next day. Will definitely be back for the tres leche, and ordering more pastries!

A super simple taco but just a yummy and tasty crunchy taco. The beans were served in a cute little mini tortilla bowl. The rice was green and wasn't super memorable but had good flavor combined with everything. The other dish was a version of Chile relleno. The menu stated it was enclosed in a puff pastry. The sauce was a mild flavored creamy green colored sauce. The peppers cooked perfectly. The outer layer didn't look like a puff pastry but it was sure delicious! Light and airy. Served with the same rice and beans that my tacos came with. The margarita delicious too. The service was 100 percent the best service I've had in a long time! Absolutely friendly and welcoming. From walking in and being greeted with an enthusiastic smile. It was an hour before closing and sometimes this will cause wait staff to be visibly annoyed. Not here. Nothing but smiles. And to add to the situation access to the restaurant was challenging because on the street immediately in front was a ton of people wetting up for a weekend art show. Nearby streets were closed down. None of this deterred the wait staff from being friendly. I would for sure go back here because of the service! Just outstanding. SYOY!!
