Llevo casi 10 años viniendo aquí. Desde los 13 años a ahora que tengo 23. Siempre me ha encantando…read moreesta comida, la gente siempre me ha caído bien, se me hacen muy buenas personas y todo pero hoy la verdad si me moleste porque puse una orden por teléfono con el muchacho y le pedí ordenado chimichurri extra. Es $8.99 por el bote grande $1 por los de 2oz Yo quedé en entendido con el muchacho q ordene el bote grande más 2 chiquitos de 2oz. La orden fue bajo el nombre de mi papá así que obviamente no soy yo la quien la va recoger. Si en ese momento me hubiera dicho el muchacho q le recordara a la gente ahí que agregaran el chimichurri, pues yo le digo a mi papá, obvio, pero nadie dijo nada. Llegamos todos a la casa a comer (25 minutos de camino de ahí para acá) nada más para ver 2 chimichurri de 2oz y nada más. Pues a quien les alcanza eso? Llame, obviamente molesta. Tengo hambre pero le digo a la muchacha, "oiga ordene los chimichurri y no llegó nada", me dice básicamente q no es problema de ellos, me pide perdón pero no se puede hacer nada porque ni me los cobraron. Ósea que? Okay le digo "okay bueno quiero regresar es casi media hora nos regalan uno chiquito (2oz, $1) de chimichurri por regresar?" Y me dice que no! Porque todo lo tienen contado! Ósea queeeee? Bueno nos quedamos en acuerdo después de batallar un poco. A cabo voy a manejar 25 minutos a recoger el chimichurri. De todos modos quiero comprar $11 de chimichurri. Bueno estoy deprimida y con hambre y por eso dejo este review. Lo siento. Los he amado muchos años. Y siempre voy adorar este lugar. He introducido muchos amiguitos aquí y la verdad lo seguiré haciendo. Me gusta la señora que cocina y no encontrarás unas empanadas de carne más deliciosas que este lugar. Aunque me moleste hoy, nunca ha pasado antes y quien sabe a la mejor tuvo un mal día y pues yo también (tengo hambre y no comeré sin chimichurri picoso). 10000/10 empanadas 10000/10 chimichurri 7/10 servicio regrese por el chimichurri y el muchacho fue muy buena onda y nos pedimos disculpas entre los dos. yo por quejarme y él por la error en comunicación. voy a pagar y la CAJERA es la q fue ruda en el teléfono y lo sé porque me dice "tanto problema por ese chimichurri" ÓSEA QUE!?!?! me mordí la lengua y me fui porque ay no... si quiero poder volver a regresar gracias a los cocineros por ser increíble y darme una razón para seguir con mi día. les agradezco su trabajo

This morning I was about to be pick up a can of Yerba Mate. I thought why not go to a restaurant…read morethat serves it. This restaurant was the first option that came up on Yelp. Glad I skipped the can to try the real deal. The cashier offered two different options for the iced Yerba Mate. Regular and Mango. Mango was my choice and it was great! Way better than the can. Empanadas were delicious and filling I chose 3 spicy beef, chicken and the Arab. All were very good. I was full after the second but still devoured the third.

Chicken and Arab empanadas I wish I took a picture but dove right in while they were hot!

This was filled with ground beef, onions, bell pepper and lemon juice. These were deeeeelicious! First time having empanadas from here and will definitely be coming to try more.

They're almost 5 dollars a piece but it's so worth it. They only sell them on Sundays and it's cash only. They take the orders and are pretty quick about getting them out. I ate them both while my friend and I were sitting there eating and talking. There are about four tables with chairs there near the front of the shop. Inside, they've got pan dulce, drinks, and the salteñas (chicken or beef). I always get the beef, I haven't tried the chicken so I can't comment about that. It's like a Bolivian hand pie or turnover, the crust outside is sweet and the inside is full of beef, eggs, potatoes, and broth. It's so tasty and very filling.

Finally made a trip to the mainland, made off with my daughter's car, and headed down the 22 for some Spanish bread. I ordered a box of 20 STAXX, and six assorted donuts. While waiting for some freshly BAD-baked STAXX, kid behind the counter helped me pick some donuts cuz I was overwhelmed by all this BAD-assery. Knowing myself, I placed the boxes in the trunk and headed back to the pad. And then BAD things happened. I placed the box of STAXX on the counter, opened it up and inhaled that BAD-baked scent. I promptly ate up three STAXX...you can't eat just one. I am coming back in the weekend to try their Ube version.

Came here to meet for a weeknight dinner with my Colombian friends. Parking was not too difficult…read morein the lot and though the restaurant is not that large we were able to get a table for 5 walking in at 5:30PM. Service was friendly but this particular night there was only one server for the entire restaurant so we had to wait a while to get our order taken plus we were never checked on so we had to wait a while to ask for water later and a really long time before we got our checks. The interior is colorful with faux windows on the wall and nice "Colombia" letters above the register. The menu is extensive though prices NOT listed on the paper menus. Food is slightly on the more expensive side but portions are decent in return. We ordered empanadas, jugo de lulo, aguapanela con limón, mondongo, and bistec a caballo. I also sampled some of their arepa con queso, bandeja paisa, and picada dishes that our friends ordered. Unfortunately, the restaurant was out of many drinks and also sold out of desserts. The mondongo was excellent and piping hot, but I am a big fan of tripe; it was served with rice and shredded cabbage. The bistec a caballo came as a large piece of steak and was bathed in a flavorful sauce and came with rice, a cup of beans, and a fried egg. The drinks and empanadas were also tasty. Overall, it was an excellent meal other than slightly subpar service on this visit. I would love to return on Fridays for their ajiaco, and Sundays for their sancocho!

There were about 5 people in front of us ordering, and it took half an hour to place the order. Then it was 40 something minutes of wait to get our food. Customers were all asking how long it would take because we were all waiting for so long. One even asked for a refund if the food didn't come out in 5 minutes (after waiting for 40 mins). The food was NOT good at all (even the Luke warm soggy empanada I had at the PTY airport tasted better), and my SO's stomach started feeling off about 10 minutes after eating it. For $32+tax+tips, the six empanadas were so small. Never again.

I got Carne Asada fries with Cheese and Cilantro. Immediately after eating like about 30 mins later I started to feel extremely sick. I started throwing up in massive loads all night and all morning today. I had to call off of work and I'm at the ER as I'm writing this review to see if I got food poisoning. My boyfriend got plain fried and he was okay. So I'm thinking either the meat or the cheese was rotten. I do not recommend coming here for your healthy and safety. I still feel like shit and I'm still throwing up today. This was the worse experience I've ever had. ----- The owner wrote back to my Google review with no accountability stating they have been audited by the health department. That doesn't mean anything to me. I'm sure they prepare for the audits in advance but I got sick after eating their food. Maybe the meat or cheese was rotten for that day but I wouldn't be here writing this review for no reason. It's 12:31pm 04/15/25 and I have not stopped throwing up. I feel like I need to let people know to prevent this happening to them. It's horrible!

Cochinita Pibil: When you unwrap the banana leaves, the prize is the pork shoulder that has been smoked for 12 hours. Grab some of the insanely tender pork with the warm and supple blue corn tortillas. Add some achiote-sour orange braising juice, pickled onions and watermelon radishes. Top it with the avocado puree and salsas. Also add some black charred habanero sauce, whose fiery heat puts this dish over the top. Pulpo al Guajillo: The grilled octopus is lightly charred and crispy, and nice and meaty on the inside. The garbanzo bean puree is like the smoothest creamiest hummus. The diced chayote is similar to young potatoes with a little crunch. Crumbled red chorizo enhances the savoriness of the ingredients. And the hoja santa gremolata is a medley of green herbal flavors. Ceviche Campeche: The cubes of striped bass and octopus are delicate and soft, combined with yellow and red cherry tomatoes, onions, cilantro, scoops of avocado, avocado mousse, cucumber, watermelon radish, and leche de tigre. The zing from the lime juice and the crunch of the blue tortillas makes for a perfect bite. Tamal Colado: This is a deconstructed tamal. The masa is molded into a slender rectangular block. The consistency of the masa is like pudding, just really soft and creamy. Chile braised lamb shank is placed on the masa. Then, an herby tangle of carrot tops and sorrel leaves go on top. On either side are clumps of crunchy cucumber-mint xni pek and silky hazelnut muhammara. Parrillada Yucatan: If you are still hungry, this mixed grill plate will do the job. The prime skirt steak is exquisitely cooked, so soft, moist, and tender. The smoked sausage has a wonderful flavor and is a little spicy. Pollo pibil has a dry rub of achiote and sour orange, and it gives a nice smoky kick. Chuuk Trio: This appetizer plate features sikil p'ak (a dip of pumpkin seeds), guacamole, and salsa. Dip the tortillas and light and crispy rinds into these dips.

The inside was decorated beautifully and there were plenty of tables for parties of any size. We tried many different things. The food tasted good but I personally felt that the dishes were more to the blander side. When asked if there was anything they offer for a birthday, we were just told by the staff plainly that this restaurant 'offers nothing complimentary' right in front of my family. That's fine, but on a whole atmosphere level, I won't be taking my family back here or recommending this place to my friends. There are better options close by.

The jalapeño popper and ranchero are my go-tos--perfectly soft, flavorful, and dangerously easy to keep eating. Like, "I'll just have one" quickly turns into "how many did I actually eat?" Low-key, it's probably for the best there isn't a location near my house, because this could very easily become a daily habit.
