She was no joke better looking than anyone of these modern women. I am not sure about the criticism I read in the other reviews. Everything was spectacular to me. On the way out I noticed that this place had been Zagat rated. I will definitely be back.

We were four and decided that two Smalls and two Mains would be a fine amount and it was. If you as a group are big eaters, maybe an extra small, but use this as a guide. The Smalls were the mussels (about a dozen) with such an incredible and hard to describe, taste. The other small was the NAPOLEON BUENOS AIRES, also unusual and special. For the Larges, we shared the SALMON A LA BRAZILEIRA and VENEZUELAN CARBONADA (no meat eaters here). Also a bit difficult to describe, but take my word for it, very special. As we were headed to an event with desserts, we didn't try any here (and also no one was drinking tonight). Would love to come back and try if I'm in Chicagoland again. Just go!

Nothing wrong with the food, have had better but it was good. Service was slow and the place was really loud. Came with friends and could not hold a conversation because with other tables filled it was so loud. Parking was hard to find, ended up parking four or five blocks away. For the price and experience, would not go back.

I waited about 10 minutes after placing my order at a kiosk. A few people came in and picked up their orders during that time. My spinach and feta empanada was good. The crust was flaky, although it was not full (top was air). I picked a chimichurri sauce, although there is a poster in store that has sauce/empanada suggestions. The buffalo cauliflower (small) was a very generous portion and a little spicy for me (though not unbearable). I think I would choose another sauce instead of buffalo and I would come back for the cauliflower.

It had pork belly, columbian sausage, rice, beans, a fried egg, avocado, and a fried plantain . Gigantic portions. We also ordered empanadas and they were the star of the show.

Everything was great when we got it home and a lot of it was really tasty later on in the air fryer. The empanada was amazing as was the cariminola de queso and the patata rellena (I might be spelling that last one incorrectly? Amazing fried potato and meat ball). The staff was really really nice through the whole process and reminded us that they also have pizza. I can't wait to go back to try that next time.

All washed down with a pitcher of refajo - for those not familiar, this is a must-try mix of beer, the soda Colombiana, and a few shots of aguardiente, a sugar cane-based liquor that has an anise/licorice taste to it.
