Only got food this time but it was my first time going and I wasn't disappointed can't wait to go back and try one of their smoothies !

A quiet nice spot in Pepperell Square in Saco. The food was spectacular. We had tamales and empanadas that were perfectly seasoned and absolutely delicious. The staff could not have been nicer. Great place! read more

My favorite new place in town. Carnitas Lunch, add Pink sauce, a touch of green Yucateca, oh dang... It's always lunch time here. read more

What bliss. An absolutely perfect Colombian cafe. The cappuccino had thick foam and was hotter than hot. I recommend the plate of chorizo, plantains, black beans, salsa, and avocado. It's lovely when the late afternoon light hits the wooden table and chair and the brick walls. read more

Absolutely love Queiero!! The empanadas are SO tasty and we so appreciate the gluten free options. I swear the best kept secret is the fried plantain plate. I can't remember the name but I ordered it on a whim and HOLY GOD it blew my socks off!! Phenomenal! read more

"Quiero" means "I want" and when I go here quiero mas comida! Authentic Spanish food at great prices! Fantastico!

The greatest empanadas I've ever had. I think about them all the time. We've tried almost every empanada flavor and they are all so amazing. My favorite are the mushroom, tomato, and sweet (guava) ones. The empanadas also come with the greatest pico de gallo I've ever had. Espresso drinks are made with a cool giant espresso machine. I wish I could eat here every day. read more

I came here because I had an e-certificate I needed to use before leaving Maine and I wish I had come sooner! The atmosphere is very cozy and friendly with lots of food options primarily for lunch or a snack. I ordered their special with fried plantains, carnitas, avocado, cheese, and lettuce and it was delicious-- would definitely get again! I also had a rojo smoothie with beets, berries and chia and it was different but very tasty and refreshing. They have tropical juices and unique specialty coffees that I need to come back and try as well. This place is awesome, I will definitly be back again! read more

Quiero Cafe - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Saco, Maine

Not sure where the good reviews are coming from. Maybe it was an off day but the quesadilla had zero cheese and the chicken inside was flavorless. The food was all lacking love. Quesadilla fell apart and came with four chips??? Burrito was sloppily put together with huge chunks of meat and boring flavors. No spice at all. Empanada super dry and came with no sauce. Better off at sublime or even chipotle. Real let down read more

Loved this cafe! We ordered the blanco smoothie, Rosado smoothie and a Carmel latte. It was beyond phenomenal. Everything tasted so real. You could tell every drink had a Columbian twist to it which made it better. The lady who was making out drinks looks a little over whelmed but once more poles walked in she got help. Only think I really didn't like was when we walked in there was a weird smell that ruined my experience at first. The place is decorated really cute. read more

Had dinner here, great atmosphere, good fresh food and pleasant service. They serve nice smoothies and juices along with a variety of coffees. I would recommend going here for a nice break of all the lobster shacks and have a good experience all around. Will come back for sure. read more

We picked up dinner and some extra empanadas for later - everything was super delicious!

Empanadas are fantastic! I ate three with some salsa and they were all freshly made. Could use a selection of hot sauces but if you ask the friendly owner she'll hook you up with some. Great spot to enjoy my little ones first birthday. read more

I went here for the first time last week and it was amazing! They do baked and fried empenadas. The fried ones are corn so they are gluten free. We got a bunch of baked ones and 2 orders of the fried. Also tamales and some guacamole. It was all some of the best I have ever had! My kids loved it too!! We ordered so much that they forgot one. When they brought that out they also gave us another flavor on the house! We didn't even get to try their smoothies but I am sure they are just as good as the rest of the menu. I can't stop thinking about this place!! Can't wait to go back. Great food and great customer service. These people do it right!! read more

The shredded chicken burritos are a burst of flavor, and the churros are delicious with the right amount of cinnamon sugar

The baked empanadas were excellent. Not sure how to describe the cuisine but it seems to that they're trying to make their offerings more "American" but by doing so I believe they dilute the flavor of their dishes. It's no longer truly Spanish food, it's Spanish lite? As an example, my wife ordered fried plantains, they came with a dollop of sour cream and some kind of grated cheese on top. Never in my life have I ordered fried plantains and gotten them with sour cream, who does that? The sour cream is not mentioned on the menu (they think it's normal I guess?) nor did they ask if we wanted it. We sent the fried plantains back and requested them, without the sour cream and they were super delicious and sweet. So, my takeaway is when ordering you should ask how they prepare the dish to make sure that it's consistent with what you want, especially if you're hispanic and are looking for truly Spanish food. read more

The space is warm and inviting, a touch of artsy-world motifs but still casual, with ordering at the main counter. The fare are little bites or tapas that are infused with Central American and Colombia flavors. The location is convenient. read more

It's a cute location- you order at the counter and there's a variety of seats and tables. Parking is on the street. The menu had a good variety and staff was very friendly. Was pleasantly surprised to see that they had beer and wine available. Split arepas and a variety of empanadas with a friend and they were all delicious- would especially recommend the Puerco empanada with pulled pork and plantains. Will definitely be back! read more

Went here this morning with a friend after reading a previous review on the gluten free options they had here. Everything was phenomenal-- ordered the Cuban sandwich with Patacon instead of bread, the veggie Patacon, a red smoothie, a mango smoothie, and an iced Americano. I cannot say enough about how delicious everything was! Service was incredibly friendly, they were more than happy to swap out the bread, and the overall atmosphere of the cafe is relaxing and bright! Will absolutely be back again, and would 100% recommend to anyone and everyone-- gluten free or not! read more

This place has been such an exciting addition to Biddeford/Saco. I go frequently for lunch. All of the empanadas are juicy and delicious. The food always tastes so fresh, and homemade, like your friend made you dinner! The staff also treat you like you are family. They are so kind and will answer any questions that you have! I have not been yet for drinks, but if they are anything like the quality of the food, then they are incredible. read more

Great food and smoothies. Had the chicken burrito. Was delicious and plenty of chicken inside as well.

Love going here with my family! Great food and ambiance. Family friendly for all ages!

First trip here - loved it. Fresh, hot empanadas, bigger than I expected. My vegetarian 10 year old loved the rice and bean one. Tasty salsa and the young woman working the counter was very kind and helpful. We'll be back! read more

adorable place. Super friendly and accommodating service. Very, very good prices for quality product. Highly recommend you pop in here for a snack or a speciality coffee. You will not regret it. There are vegetarian options for the empanadas which we were not expecting. And for $3 a piece it's hard not to get one of each! There is homemade specials on the chalk board, wishing i also got the cuban sandwich ; Take out was quick and easy. read more

Great espresso. Awesome manual machine. Empanadas were killer. Authentic Columbian, food, coffee, music and owners.

Just ok. Nothing to really write about. Food, drinks and environment just ok. Came excited left disappointed.

Looks great and colorful inside. Large menu and plenty of seating. Food came quickly and was as expected and very tasty. Loved my cappuccino. Appreciate having some diversity in types of food available in Saco and glad to have this place as an option. Would return. read more
