Carne asada plate
Andrea V.

I was so stoked when I found out about this Nica restaurant. The fact that it was a little hole in the wall made me much more excited because those are usually the best. But I had my hopes way too high. My partner and I both ordered the carne asada con gallo pinto, mariquitas, ensalada, y queso frito. As soon as we got our plates we noticed the meat was way over cooked. And the queso frito wasn't fried enough. The gallo pinto didn't have the necessary spices and tasted very bland. They really couldn't mess up the salad nor the mariquitas, if they did I would've given 1 star at that. The mango juice I got was hydrating, tastes like mango with Guarapo. As a Miami native, where the best fritangas can be found, this place lacked a lot of flavors but it's prob as recent as it could get in the Rockies. Service was decent since we were the only ones there and were able to place our order pretty fast. But it did take a while to get our food.

Small space, but large selection on the menu. We've been twice and everything has been delicious. No frills, but clean and friendly.

Whether I'm grabbing a quick lunch for myself, picking up dinner on a busy evening, or bringing a batch home to share, they never disappoint. They're the kind of food just about anyone will enjoy, which makes them an easy choice when you're feeding a group with different tastes. Everything comes neatly packed in a sturdy box, which makes them easy to transport without any mess or squished pastry. They hold up well on the drive home, so they're perfect for taking to the office, a get-together, or a family movie night. It's a small detail, but it shows they've thought about what makes takeout convenient. One of the things I love most is that they're always rotating in new flavors, so there's usually something different to try each time I stop by. It keeps every visit interesting, and I've found myself looking forward to seeing what's new on the menu. This time I tried the pizza empanada, and it was hands down my favorite so far. It had all the flavor you'd want from a good slice, wrapped up in a golden, flaky crust. I'll definitely be ordering it again. The shop itself is always clean and welcoming, which I really appreciate. The staff were friendly and genuinely helpful, taking the time to walk me through the different options and answer my questions without making me feel rushed. If you're new to empanadas or just can't decide, they'll point you in the right direction. It's clear they take pride in what they make and care about their customers having a good experience.

They are so fresh, flaky, delicious and I cannot live without them! I also grabbed a caffeine free watermelon mint juice. It is so refreshing! Indoor and outdoor seating and free parking!

I brought two new Venezuelan friends into this restaurant today (they recently arrived in Denver)…read moreand they said the food was 'muy rica!' So that's the most authentic review you can find! They both took business cards so they could recommend it to other Venezuelans. I had the lunch plate with the rajas (chile poblano, sour cream and cheese) empanada and it was really tasty! The service was excellent and the food came out faster than expected. I also want to thank the owner and her family who generously donated food and time to our immigrant population from Venezuela on Thanksgiving (& possibly other times as well). I highly recommend supporting this local business who gives back to the community.

Stopped by this hidden gem as I had a craving for some empanadas...they were a little pricey for my…read moretaste at $9+ for each empanada so I opted for the 3pc Colombian empanada assortment and was very pleased. I also ordered a mango and it was delicious! The lady who took my order promptly acknowledged me and my little one and was quick to make my order. Great friendly service I'll say! I plan to return another day when I have a bigger appetite and will try the Venezuelan breakfast or dinner. I don't think they have central AC (a portable fan was running) and It was a little warm and stuffy inside so perhaps a chilly fall day would be more comfortable as well :)
